    Balance game around 1v1

    For pvp and just let it scale. There 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5 all balanced.

    ROFL you made my day with that image. OP at the risk of being trolled the only way to make that work is if every class could do everything equaly well, Deal damage, Heal, CC, and absorb/avoid damage, everyone is the same. There are just so many aspects of the game tied to the interdependancy of the classes that you'd have to junk the whole system and start over to balance 1v1.

    To balance a game like WoW to the fullest extent to where everyone is balanced, give everyone 100 health, and everything just hit for 1. No matter what, and give everyone a heal that would heal for 10 damage. Tadaaa, balanced 1v1. Oh whats that? Too many people making it 1v5 making you dead? Welcome to the world of you arn't the only one playing a game.

    if you want to see if you are better then someone else in this game, both roll a lvl 1 of the same race/class, lvl to 10, and duel using only starting gear.

    thats the closest you can get to balanced

    I really don't see a problem with it. Using the philosophy of balancing pvp around 1v1 would also balance 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 and BG's. It would be good for solo players and group players.

    It's win win all around.

    Although this may never be achieved, it is better than the current balancing around 3v3 philosophy.

    Nope. Will not.

    5v5 =/= 5*(1v1)

    40v40 (alterac) =/= 40*(1v1)

    Exactly you can't balance just around 1 area of the game. It's good for the players that enjoy 3v3 but what about the players that want 2v2 balance more? Or the players that want RBG's balance more. Hell some players even want 5v5 more balanced.

    You need a universal balance philosophy that will balance all brackets and balancing around 1v1 does that.

    So do the impossible in a game with variety. I'm sure they'll get right on that.

    I'm pretty sure it's something along the lines of this whole idea of it scaling up doesn't work.

    balancing the game more in 1vs1 is a good idea cause team matches will never be good balanced
    but right now its impossible some classes are far to strong in 1on1 also rock paper scizzor system

    Disagree. Even with all the variety in wow I believe it can still be balanced around 1v1 and still maintain class uniqueness.

    Soo.. If one DPS can bring down a healer by himself, what about a 3v3 scenario? Think about how fast people would die.

    As I said before balancing 1v1 just cant be done with wow's combat system. At its core it assumes that not every class can do everythign equaly well and needs other classes to cover its weak points. The only way to balance 1v1 would require scraping the whole system and starting fresh and there is just no way bliz will do that. I'm sorry to say your going to just have to look for a different game if you want 1v1 balance. Try looking into GW2 as its design philosophy is more fitting to every class having a fighting chance against any other class 1v1.
