agree, but probably wont be changed anymore, apart from maybe some asymmetrical placement, where it seems that symmetrical placement was intended but not executed (like spirit watch orb location)
The leaderboards and the mmr system have its flaws, but they have nothing to do with that phenomenon. People that dont understand the basics of an elo system and refuse to read them up should refrain from commenting on this topic and stop creating threads about it with the simple intention to blame Arenanet.
Strange, don’t u have any teams in NA, or does everyone run triple guard over there?
What? There are exactly 2 Guardians in the top 10…
Do you really think that you know more about formulas than a game developer with a appropriate degree?
So… like a SOTG for sPvP?
Maybe It is time for a designated PvP team recruiting subforum. Evan do you hear me?
Mesmer – Greatsword got buffed a little bit and time warp got rightfully nerfed.
1 viable build: Shatter with staff or greatsword, whichever you want. There’s a few variations but I don’t like em that much.I disagree. There is a completely different build in terms of playstyle. Many refer to it as “Phantasms”. Just because Xeph doesn’t play it, doesn’t mean it isn’t viable. Although I would like a buff to Mantras, so that a 3. build can emerge.
I don’t run shatter :<
Sneaky condition mesmer, 12 condi stack hit quite hard when u are spamming as ele

We used a phantasm mesmer quite a bit just recently on our team and I don’t think its viable. Just my opinion though. Maybe you could say its viable but its not optimal, you could bring something else in its place that performs the job better.
We used Phantasm Mesmer against you yesterday (I’m Fixi). You need to run a different strat with the spec though, since its kinda useless in teamfights but very good 1v1 – so you need to enforce that.

Charging for Custom Arenas is the best thing that could happen for GW2 PvP, since if they finally earn some money with it, maybe we will get more resources for PvP.
Hey Nord, I’ll share my concerns about SotG with you:
I know it is a cool oppertunity to have the Devs on this show so often, but every GW2 SotG i watched ended up as an Interview of the PvP Developers. That does not quite fit my understanding of the format of SotG as I experienced it with other games and as the title itself suggests. I would really enjoy more normal SotG’s (there were 1 or 2 without Devs if I recall correctly) with just members of famous/competitive Teams (the few that are left). There are numerous topics to talk about, that don’t require an Anet employee. Of Course no one wants to watch collective whining, but a serious, informative and entertaining discussion (appropriate guests needed).
I sincerely hope that you consider my suggestion, if you don’t – thanks for reading anyways.
