They were more balanced, and of course, by balanced I simply mean
10 man - 3 healers. 3 casters 3 melee leaving 1 'wildcard'
15 man - 3 healers. 5 caster 5 melee leaving 2 'wildcard'
wildcard of course being anything EXCEPT a 3rd healer.
I would gladly queue for far longer for bgs.. if they were more entertaining and more well, evened out. in its current state, if your wsg team has 10 dps. and they have 3 healers.. you lose. there is no two ways about it, sure you can say 'well thats 3 more dps, just overpower/cc them... but you should know better. its random bgs... you cant expect miracles.
so, dedicated pvpers, would you be happy to wait longer, in order to have better games, games you dont dread?
