    2vs2 arena in legion?

    tldr;

    Since the gear gained from pvp is tied to your rating, does 2vs2 count for it? Or does 2vs2 become utterly pointless like random battlegrounds are going to be?

    Um, does 2v2 not have ratings ? I am perplexed by your question, last I checked all rated brackets had a rating attached to them.

    Why would you think otherwise?

    Each bracket rewards gear based on your rating in that particular bracket.

    Hm. So I guess they, and therefore we, do not know yet :-/ What they say is a bit unclear.

    Currently your 3vs3 rating is all that matters as 2vs2 offers no rewards. I wonder if this is going to change in legion and a high 2vs2 rating gives you good gear from those boxes, or will your 2vs2 rating be irrelevant. I sure hope the gear/rating curve won't just be tied to 3vs3. It's also a bit unclear how you earn gear from random battlegrounds, or do they not offer one? No ratings there.

    I'm not sure if you intentionally misunderstood the question or just read my post hastily :q

    I think it's my answer that has been misunderstood, you're questioning whether 2v2 will be ignored like 5v5 is on live, but I don't think you need to worry really, the highest rating you have will provide you with the highest ilvl, now what we dont know is if you can only get the highest ilvl gear from playing the bracket that has the highest rating or if u can still get that ilvl piece on other brackets.

    If option A, you only get the ilvl by playing the bracket of your highest current rating , example : your 2v2 is 1800 rating and your 3v3 is 2600 rating, if you only play 2v2 this week you will get 1800 ilvl gear instead of 2600 ( this seems unlikely to me tbh ).

    If option B, you get ilvl by playing any bracket and your ilvl reward is based on your highest current rating on any, this would make more sense since that would also explain how you get ilvl gear in bgs, here's an example : fred has 1700 in 2v2 and 1500 in 3v3, fred played a bg at the day of the reset and got a box, fred's box will contain which ilvl ? if option A, it means bg has a fixed ilvl system outside of ranked, which seems weird tbh.
    If option B fred will get a box from said BG and in that box fred will have 1700 ilvl gear which makes more sense.

    So either way the morale of the story is, don't worry about your precious 2v2 bracket it will always exist because it is the easiest to get into and requires less people
