Battlegrounds 2/21/10

I fought in a few different battlegrounds on Brieanna tonight. Some were better than others.

I fought in 5 battles in Alterac Valley, the Alliance still isn't doing too well in there. I had 2 wins and 3 losses. The Alliance was having the same old problem in there, lack of teamwork, everyone doing their own thing, no one working together towards a common goal. It is the same old story in there and I am going to be spending less time in AV in the future I think. It is too bad too, it is my favorite battleground.

Arathi Basin was my daily battleground today. Unbelievably we won the first one I was in. I got in with a really good group and we had a 5 cap at the end. It is really rare these days that the Alliance does so well in AB because no one guards anything and that was the case tonight too, I was the only one guarding the Lumber Mill, we just came up against a really bad group of Horde I guess. This is a battleground we used to dominate. Completing the daily earned me 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor, which Brieanna really needs, and 25 arena points. I fought in one more battle, a loss but a close loss. Maybe the Alliance is starting to do better in there, I will keep an eye on it.

I fought in one battle for Strand of the Ancients, a loss. I had never been in there on Brieanna before. I served up a Great Feast as part of the Dinner Impossible achievement and now only have Warsong Gulch left to do before I complete it. This was another close loss, the Horde did capture the Titan Relic and we almost did, we had the gate to the relic room almost down, which would have resulted in a draw. Because we were unable to capture it the Horde won.

The battleground I spent the most time in tonight was Isle of Conquest. Tonight was also Brieanna's first time in there. I had queue'd for it many times before she turned 80 but never had the queue come up. We were doing ok in there. We started off winning, we won quite a few in a row, then we started losing. There are certain times of the day to fight in the battlegrounds when we do well and other times when it is best to just stay out of them. I started off in a good time and moved into a time frame when it was best to just walk away which I did. We had 7 wins and 10 losses in there.

I fight in Wintergrasp every time I see it queue up and we are doing well in there as usual. That is the only battleground the Alliance consistently does well in but it only queue's every 2 or 3 hours. We had two wins and one loss in the ones I was in. I am after the trinkets in there which are 25 Wintergrasp Marks of Honor each. We are usually defending which means I head down and help destroy the Horde towers in the south. The one loss we had resulted from just about everyone staying in the keep instead of coming out and going after the objectives. I see that happen once in awhile and am not sure why. You would think that after all this time people would realize that you WILL NOT win WG by staying in the keep, you need to get out and capture workstations, if just to keep them away from the Horde, and you have to destroy their towers. When all 3 towers are down there is an announcement that goes something like "The towers have fallen, victory is ours, clean up the remaining forces".
