    I think Blizzard balances PvP not for actual quality gameplay but rather to achieve goals in class representation and player turnover. I've been playing some CTA this weekend to cap Honor again for next season; almost every one is filled with people on their undergeared rerolled rogues so they can be overpowered in 5.2. The player base seems to thrive on this. What once was a bunch of Warrior alts in BGs is now a bunch of Rogue alts in BGs, maybe the truth is the average pvper just rerolls to be OP, and Blizzard keeps them around by providing another OP class to do it on.
    "Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams
    When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them.

    The most ignorant thing i've read in ages....to test PvP balance of course, to make sure it's balanced as possible for the next season.

    The reason none of the decent PvPers go on PTR is becasue they are pusing for titles as by the time Blizz make arena doable, it's the last two weeks where people go keen mode in 3s/5s

    aka.. flaks still has a sore bum about the warrior nerfs .

    iuno maybe we should be more angry.. i've been playing rogue / mage / lock / priest toons on PTR mostly..so i'm having a great go of it 3/4s of the time ^^.

    the reason i stopped writing angry things about the state of PTR locks for example is because i realized that it doesnt matter..as long as 1 of the 3 main classes i play is viable in 3s than whatever.

    i think if you get this frustration about PTR status your chips are all in one cup..

    anyways as for bliz not caring.. i think they do. But i think its probably hard to balance the game with the wrong people at the helm of the changes but bliz is a business first; if you're making money.. you don't fire the help.

    eventually there might be a tipping point if things ever get REALLY bad with pvp but it might go unnoticed since it's not the majority of players interested in this.
