To clarify for those who have never participated in a GvG:
-The loot is negligible as you stop stomping when one of the sides calls it
-Farming groups of randoms is far more profitable
-GvGs between guilds that are somewhat equal in skill last much longer than fights against groups of randoms.
-There’s a lot of downtime where you wait for the guilds to get ready
-GvGs can be any numbers from 5v5 to 30v30, or yes 8v8. Tactics and team compositions will of course vary depending on the numbers.
-It requires more skill than sitting on a siege engine pressing 1 or 2.
-Most guilds will spend maybe a couple of hours a week on GvG and the rest responding to all those reports of inc.
sorry, but there’s nothing skilled about zerg vs zerg.
next
I wonder why the OP left Blackgate, since it appears they are quite unhappy on TC. Better still, they should consider a move to JQ. None of the guilds support GvG apparently.
Engrish??? lol
That’s your response? Really?
Sentence structure reads perfectly fine. And bonus: there’s no misuse of their and there.
They still don’t call it Nancy, jayne
Most of the people who think they’re doing GvG in this game, have never GvG’d in their life.
@ the person who said it should be like GW1, we would need a dedicated healer class for that.
Gw1 gvg lasted longer than 2 minutes. I still don’t get where these wannabes think that zerging each other is now skilled.
Way rude, friendo.
no it was totes out of love
Why wont you share your love with me Q.Q
oh c’mere you
Last night was the first time I’d hit PYRO (on MagBL), and I was pleasantly surprised to find them fair opponents. They forced us to get off our up-levels after a pair of embarrassing wipes at roughly even numbers, certainly knocked us out of our complacency. Had some good fights with PYRO once we got more serious, you guys definitely run some builds we aren’t used to seeing. I was really looking forward to fighting you more that night so we could learn what you were doing.
Unfortunately I didn’t really get the chance, because they left map an hour or two later once we had some more people on the tag. I understand the frustration at being out-manned, but if you really liked your open field fights like you say you do, you’d man up and adapt, not rage the map. In fact at that time, you had plenty of numbers on map with a TyE+pug blob and PYRO. Attached is screenshot of your forces that night, shortly before PYRO left map allowing us to recap all their kitten.
Anyway, I hope we get the chance to hit PYRO again, and this quiet little-known “D|ERP” guild, whom i havent yet had the chance to fight. See you on the battlefield.
When we hit you at SS you had a full queue zerg, and we ran in with our 25 and died because yolo. I even stayed despite imminent death to duel an HzH mesmer and got rolled over subsequently. This mesmer then claimed it was “SG and a few pugs” in PMs to one of our members and accused us of running. So we combined our group with the Mag Blob, hence the jokes “Just PYRO and a few pugs”. We fought with that amount once on the switchback, then moved maps to take more things. It was not a rage quit. There is no fun in throwing bodies at people in full q vs full q fights of lag tasticness which honestly, we anticipated we would continue winning. Yawn.
As for recapping all the stuff, welp. We can’t be on every map all the time.
You’re referring to me, but yeah, the pugs who jumped in ruined it. I can go to an undisclosed location with you though
ooo seksy time
wow did i not lower your massive ego enough
you beat me, several times, yes we know.
kerona said he loses to you too, but see, this has nothing to do with you. he and i just want friendly duels. i don’t think i’m the one flaunting my ego
Way rude, friendo.
no it was totes out of love
This is a serious thread if you dont like you can desist from contributing to the trolling
;____;
That sad moment when you are in bay and your TS goes down and is still down
Fun fights on FA BL waiting for TS to come back up
Are you sure it wasn’t TC BL?
you’re such a killjoy ugh

i leave sos for jq and you leave jq for sos. fail
i enjoy watching your fights though.
I can’t believe JQ is still in here talking about points, and how good they are. Anyways here is 18 minutes of video from last night where JQ showed [DERP] just how good they are.
The only time JQ has a chance of winning a fight that isn’t at least a 2:1 situation is when they are on those AC’s and Cannon’s. One guy was on the north cannon of SM last night for at least 4 hours.
As for the JQ who said they beat PYRO on EBG last night, this is what I saw while I was there, don’t know what happened after this, PYRO mumble can give you a headache fast with that many people in it. Thx for the bags though.
that’s so 2 pages ago… gawd
Wow this thread makes the SoR/BG thread look good. hahahaha
Why, do you want to bore yourself to death?
Guys, I’m getting SOOOOO many loot bags! lolumad?!
Mag bought me a new armor set.
Thank you guys!
When we fought JQQ I looted a new set of gear off all the bags that dropped..
I don’t remember fighting Dragonbrand… They were like the chupacabra… just this mythical entity hiding out in the mists…
That was cold jab, i think my feelings are actually hurt that you called me a chupacabra
Lol. Well, you could always snuggle up to Sgt killjoy*, he’s giving out lots of love today
You are my most precious snowflakes.
This got me smiling. I would tip my hat to you if I wore one
C’mere. I’ll make you all nice and warm.
Aww, you really are just a big teddy bear aren’t you <3
N..no! I hate everything and everyone. I earned the name Sgt Killjoy!
Snuggling with Mag.. who would have thought
You are my most precious snowflakes.

I feel like FA is trying too hard to stay relevant in this thread
Just like JQ in tier 1 http://youtu.be/6YMPAH67f4o
I guess that could make sense if there were truth to it.
Tbh, the best matchup so far was JQ vs TC. T1 is just a blob vs blob lagfest with BG and SoR having marital issues
Check out Sea of Sorrows (if you’re considering any NA servers). Very strong oceanic/sea presence, skilled pugs, and no need for ts/mumble/etc to tag up.
Maguuma talking about Waha. Now that is funny.
I feel like FA is trying too hard to stay relevant in this thread
I’d rather be irrelevant than be on the other end of what Mags is doing to you
Don’t listen to that meany head. You’re relevant to me. JQ can say all they want but when they lose most of their BL to FA that speaks louder than anything.
You are my most precious snowflakes.
This got me smiling. I would tip my hat to you if I wore one
lets do it again
I feel like FA is trying too hard to stay relevant in this thread
Oh yea? You dropped so much loot I had to buy a second account just to store it all. My daddy can beat up your daddy! I’m not inviting you to my birthday party either!
well fine no cake for you
Guys, I’m getting SOOOOO many loot bags! lolumad?!
Mag bought me a new armor set.
Thank you guys!
It’s ok, I bought a new house for your loot bags.
care cup empty

There’s a lot more flexibility in WvW with builds since food/stones can allow for different trait allocation.
Also, people tend to want to use the character they spent time making from the ground up rather than the sPvP version with it’s limited options.

Dude u guys r so good at gvg let me see dat gold trim
Oops.. wrong game
Dude u guys r so good at ppt let me see that #1 NA ranking
Oops.. wrong server
Eh, ill give that a 1/10. Doesn’t quite have the sting I was looking for. I already got my gvg trims.. where’s yours
It’s about as much sting as any of your posts have. lol JQ so good cuz we run da staff eles!! Unfortunately trims weren’t in the game when I stopped playing GW1 (at least not that I remember, but I’m old and have a bad memory). But who needs trims when your guild is featured as Guild of the Week
Lol I forgot they used to do that..
Anyway, lets get back to zerg fights and pretend we’re doing gvg
its totes the same

I think the next matchup should be SoR, MAG, and TC
Also who said RET runs lol. We had 80 man JQ and we were getting farmed by them.
We kept coming back cuz we love fights. We learned what the 80 man was doing (conditions) and we adapted our utility bars to beat you with half numbers.
GG.
Every zerg “does conditions” lol
TC where are you?
Not all servers are interested in fighting the BG blobs all the time.
JQ got sick of it, TC is sick of it. Honestly, SoR would probably be sick of it if they weren’t used to it from T2 and is mostly full of stubborn diehard people.
But BG finally got what they’ve always wanted, un-competitive wins.
People on SoR are sick of it too… don’t think we aren’t.
It’s only uncompetitive if you don’t turn up
Or if a server overstacks their competition in the coverage war.
But that is just details, it’s easier to say the enemy isn’t showing up, instead of admitting that you outnumber your enemy during certain timezones.
Stay classy MERC.
Sorry to interrupt buuuuuut SoR were fine 2 weeks ago. Then we were told it was a training week (on forums etc) and I dunno about last week. Point being is as soon as SoR wins everyone cries numbers….. as soon as BG wins same thing. I think it’s safe to say that any server who wins is labled stacked and it is rare for the “fun matchup” to occur.
Work is dull
Yes, magically BG went from very high to full, and obviously those people transferred there to pve since guesting doesn’t cut it. And of course magically during the same time BG starts queuing 4 maps during SEA.
BG out coveraging their opposition can’t be changed, but at least be honest about it.
Just enjoy the ride.
Not sure where you are gathering your Intel but I’m informing you it is incorrect. 4 maps queued is just a flat out lie. I was just trying to point out the similarities each server winning shares…… they are accused of being stacked. shrugs I’m not phased eitherway who wins….. just have fun being silly with friends
I miss jq but tc are so much fun too! And no jq you cant have tc back!
But we can trade you Maguuma
TC where are you?

JQ vs TC was a fun matchup. Give them back to us pl0x
Ah yes they were a lot of fun. Mag showed some serious swag.
FA ran in trying to kill me while I was killing piggies for bloodlust stacks, saw everyone staring at them, and ran away.
Idk, both my ele and mesmer have been nerfed to kitten.
Too late to be constructive.
IKR. Now I have to level some other kitten until it gets nerfed to pieces too.
Sorry I was distracted by your 15 PPT what did you say again?
Are you seriously talking about ppt against a tier 3 server? lol…you must be so proud of yourself.
Are you seriously thinking your T3 server has uber skillz that can’t be matched by people on a T1 server?
Let me break this down logically for you since your hipster attitude can’t seem to grasp how this pans out.
Most people on the T1 servers originated on the ‘lesser tiers.’ Therefore they do have the experience and skills needed to fight you open field or in smaller groups. Thing is, once they come here they join guilds who teach them how to play in larger group settings since our opponents fight us in the same manner. This means mesmers running feedback/veil instead of decoy/blink/etc. Staff eles for combo fields instead of d/d or s/d with PPT/PVT instead of full cleric’s/valkyrie/etc. The list goes on. Don’t get too kitteny when you run over that upleveled necro who’s in WvW to level up since he knows it will be a boring week.
So when you were losing on reset night, that was part of the master plan, right? I can’t even comprehend your strategies. I guess that’s why I’m on a Tier 3 server, and not a Tier 1 server.
Also, I had no idea elementalists could even EQUIP staves! Thanks for letting me know!
2/10.
And the 2 is generous. Meanwhile, I’d like to thank you for reading my T1 wall of text. I shall be upgrading to T2 shortly
Thank you to all from Mag who showed up for the fights on Mag BL at the windmill. You’re all very skilled players and it shows.
Kyra, that shatter mesmer is to die for. (Literally).
Saiyr, you too.
Gone all day on a bike ride, come back and apparently I went to the windmill and owned bones! All in a good day’s work. No but seriously I’m a horrible PvPer.
Yeah I realized earlier I meant someone else. Too lazy to edit
Its called guild wars after all kind sir. Im sorry if i offended you.
Gw1 is called guild wars. Not this game :o
Gw1 has GvG. Not this game :o
Oh gosh you, not this argument again. Don’t make me break out the glitter.
I thought we agreed on calling it Nancy.
The nancy boys are at it again behind the windmill. REMEMBER JAYNE

#YOLOMAGSWAG420
PRAISE JEDSUS!
What size GvG does HzH do?
As said earlier, the major guilds on JQ do not GvG.
Jade Quarry, “a WvW establishment”. . . that doens’t GvG? oO

^———- GvG that way

Why thank you, [DERP] and [PYRO].
Maguuma is such a giving group of people. <3

Anytime.
I enjoy free badges, even if it’s one at a time.
You won, and rightfully so, good fight
Enjoy my loot bag <3

I like FA, they have such tenacity.
They ‘win’ in PPT from holding SMC against our pugs and now they think they’ve beat a T1 server.
Meanwhile, their bl is blue.
We should have a TC vs JQ match.
Who’d win?
Anvil Rock
We beat TC 2 weeks ago. They have a stronger NA, we have a stronger SEA.
Maguuma should be familiar with this concept. SoS says hello.
You guys are silly.
You’re actually giving us the rating we need to take 2nd place above SoR 
Why thank you, [DERP] and [PYRO].
Maguuma is such a giving group of people. <3
1v1 me br0
Notice all the bags are in the tower, lolz
Notice the 25 bloodlust stacks on me and the other ele in my group. Buy some PVT plz
I’m waiting for this guy to transfer to another T1 server. Have you not realized JQ is not T1 anymore?
The only reason I left SoS was because of the 7 weeks matched up with TC. I know how boring it gets with 90 man zergs running over anything that leaves spawn.
However, I have no interest in BG or SoR. I gave SoR a try, for 1 week, hated it and left. Turns out I had an old friend from GW1 running a guild on JQ so I joined and I’ve had a blast.
Thanks for listening to my life story I lubb yew too <3
