Happening in T2 matchup atm. It is being currently held by the green server (FA) and few of us tried taking it multiple times but ended up getting d/ced >.<
Please fix it Anet ASAP.

What are the latest Guilds of YB? All round, all timezones
TZ specific regular guilds:
OCX: [AKD], they also play during NA AFAIK.
SEA: [Ts], [cA]
EU: [PwN], they also play during NA I think, not sure since I never login during NA prime.
NA: [BMO], [FKU], [SG]
These are the guilds that we received after ascending to T2. Maybe I missed out some…Oh and we lost a very good guild [TC] (now [Kazo]) to JQ recently who raided during EU and [CPR] to NSP who raided during NA.

All I am going to say is that a few days ago, folks on FA were talking about being getting the 2v1 shaft from YB and DB with just a 35 PPT.
Like I said back then, I don’t think its a 2v1, at least not an organized one. I think its more that DB is trying to send a message that they want to be in T2 and stay in T2. They don’t want to be in T3 and think they are getting their message across very clear being a few hundred points behind YB. I applaud those guys for really getting after it this week.
Welcome to T2 DB!
Ya I agree with you. When one server understands the map politics and helps another to focus the third, I call it an “opportunistic 2v1”, which I believe YB to be rather good at. But TBH why don’t DB players who want T2 just transfer to one of the pre-existing T2 servers rather than wait an eternity for glicko to adjust and destroy T3 in the meantime with this rotating nonsense? After all most of those NA players stacked onto DB from elsewhere without any server loyalty, intending to be carried by SEA guilds on DB that are known for ktraining and fairweathering when real competition shows up. Didn’t Season 2 and post-S2 give the correct example? Doesn’t sound stable to me.
No offense but that’s laughable assuming you are on FA since day one.
Many players wants his/her server to rise instead of transferring around. There is nothing wrong in that. Server loyalty isn’t dead (certainly not on my server) contrary to what many believe.

OP, we will deal with it. Please close the topic as intentional/unintentional double teaming happens all the time for minutes/hours/days. It’s taking advantage of the server that is being attacked, not necessarily means there’s any alliance/communication between the opposing servers.
Be optimistic and look at the positive side. The points from PPK was AWESOME (not to mention the bags)

You might want to have a look at what T2 has to offer. DB is already SEA heavy, so have a look at the other T2 servers (especially YB) if you want action during that TZ.

Has Anet hired Yak Bend to be their consultants for the direction to take WvW? The last 2 major changes (Siege Disablers and now this no-white sword thing) plays right into their play-style. I’m not commenting here if the way YB plays is correct or not – they made it to T2 after all; but stop forcing that play-style down everybody’s throat!
What? When they announced introduction of siege disablers, there were talks from other servers how it will negatively affect us since we build siege etc. Now that you (whatever server you’re from) have failed to effectively use them against us, you’re badmouthing our server?
Although I disagree with the removal of white sword, I must say havoc groups are at a HUGE advantage and YB isn’t exactly known for its havoc (rather we we known for defense and siege). So how exactly does that “play right into our playstyle”?

I’m from Yak’s Bend and this is just my opinion (not anybody else’s).
Solo roaming happens seldom, most of the times you’ll run into a group of 2-4 roamers a.k.a havoc squads of our rivals. Ganking thieves and condi mesmers are plenty in our tier to fight against.
Our best hours was supposedly EU timezone but recently [TC] transferred to JQ, so its no longer our strong timezone as they were a major force in our WvW. Our worst TZ is probably OCX and early SEA where we have no dedicated guild raiding, but have lots of pugs running around. So we could definitely use a commander during OCX-Early SEA hours. I don’t play during NA, so I won’t be able to comment.
Our server (Yak’s Bend) can definitely improve its open field fighting.
Lastly, please feel free to make an account on www.yaks-bend.com and ask if you have any queries.
Thank you

EBG and SoSBL in unplayable in T2 NA matchup. Skills doesn’t work properly in a fight, there’s always like 4-5 second delay and it always ends up being d/ced.
C’mon Anet!

Yak’s Bend has moved up the rankings to 4th place, but they’re still almost 200 rating points below the T1 servers. Does anyone know how high their rating would have to be to have a decent chance of playing in T1?
I don’t think we are ready for T1 yet, so hold off your horses lol
We’ll get smashed over there.

The WvW population has indeed been plummeting for quite a while. On JQ the most dire time zone is SEA – it’s almost deserted. Overall it’s currently the least populated T1 server, but there’s still activity at certain times.
Mostly it’s just a matter of indifference. I don’t think Anet even realizes how little players care about PPT at this point. For the majority (of T1 at least), it only serves to maintain the tier – no one cares if they’re 1st, 2nd or 3rd.
We just want to fight. Commanders from different servers arrange times to be online in order to fight each other (with guild or PUGs). This is the last bit of entertainment left in WvW and you don’t need to maintain a population 24/7 to do it.
Yaks bend is the only server in NA to play the ppt game…they flat out ignore fights to go ppt. Plus bg/tc are trying hard to not let jq fall. No one wants to fight yaks bend.
Every server has players who cares about the score and PPT. To claim otherwise is simply being ignorant.
No need to be salty, FA’er.
