You know from a Mage’s perspective that is quite tempting… Almost a requirement in fact

To which I say, do you want more BeeGees? You know they are Australia’s (adopted) sons… I grew up with those little boys on tv…

Whether you’re a brother,
Or whether you’re a mother,
You’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive

Maybe a little Night Fever…

Then I get night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it

Do you really want to make a warlock grumpy?

The first rule of BGs: The person who talks the most is doing the least.

The second rule: Any insults thrown at your own team are only there to try to hide just how much you truly freaking suck.

Yeah, I love the “let em cap, let’s lose fast” attitude… NOT!

I’ve even seen that on multiple occasions before the gates even open.

Yeah I have been impressed at how many people call out short, simple, yet clear instructions in SotA.

I also think this is the prime example in BGs where confirmation of tactics carries weight.

As for the video… I should have utilized my uber MSpaint skills and drawn some AB landmarks on the screenshot, because it really does explain it better than I ever could… Maybe I will when I get home tonight… I’m missing my “drowning man”

I’ve generally found that the people who call other people PvP noobs (or better still PvEtards) are the last ones to volunteer a strategy unless its “just lose fast, and hope the next BG isn’t full of kids”

Excellent points, supporting a strat out loud can go a long way. In SotA, for instance, it’s starting to become standard practice in our Battlegroup to have one person call out “Focus on green gate” or “Ranged get in the passenger seat of the demos and CC” and having 2 or 3 other people repeat “GREEN” and “Ranged CC”.

And lord that video was eery-reminiscent of almost every AB I’ve ever been in…

I fear it isn’t as conclusive as I would have liked…

Now if they has been Gnomes… Or at least clown fish… Proof positive.
