    Still, the ideal way would be if allys realized that theres free honor 5 ppl could get on the way down while the other 30-35 rush straight for drekthar.
    Alliance are doing it the correct way. As the other poster said we all get the same honor so it doesnt matter, plus since we win most of the time by going right to drek we get bonus rep from token turn ins. I am 12k/21k to exalted without going hardcore. I would much rather be the alliance.

    I never understood the "get rekt" saying. Why would I want to wreck myself? Shouldn't you, as the enemy faction, wreck me?

    What part of "get rekt" makes you think it's self inflicted? What a strange comment to make.

    Get rekt means someone else is wrecking you, as in "get wrecked more easily, scrub."

    The "get" part?

    The logical way would be "I'm going to wreck you."

    Whoever says "get your ass kicked?"

    Uh... I guess that makes sense. I still miss "get ready to get PWNED."

    Never had someone tell me the alternative of "get fukt" but had plenty of "fu's" and "go f yourself." Too many variations to keep track of.

    Except seriously Ally rankers are doing WSG and getting somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-4x as much as Allies.

    The Ally Rush method leaves them with the worst of all worlds.

    They aren't getting as much Honor as the actual Ally Rankers, they aren't getting as much Rep as the Horde, theyre just getting more tokens.

    Except you dont have to go up that ramp.

    There's a great post (its old, and no, im not your Google service) on Reddit where the guy compares Vanilla AV terrain and shows every way in which the Alliance has a massive advantage. Its quite long. He has pictures and video and everything.

    And there is no way to skip that choke, pretty sure the horde can skip the bridge

    Other way around.

    *Warriors* can charge up the hill and skip the bridge. Everyone else has to take the bridge.

    ANY Ally can ride straight to the Relief Hut without agro'ing a single NPC.

    And our towers aren't actually defended by their NPCs (once you go inside, they cant shoot you), but Ally bunkers you have to clear all but one of the Archers (because they can shoot the flag).

    And they have about 3x the range. You can be standing INSIDE Van's entrance and the South Bunker can still hit you - the South Bunker can range on the Aid Station flag and prevent caps.

    The Horde towers cannot prevent caps at the Relief Hut.

    Trust me, if you believe that it's an even match up, you're deluded.

    You actually aren't getting any "bonus rep".

    Killing Galv, LTs, and Commanders (or, for Horde, Bal, etc) is actually equal to killing the enemy commander + 100.

    So... by skipping them and heading straight for Drek, you're getting... almost exactly the same rep (getting the 100 from the token turn in)... except the Horde are getting the same rep... AND every 3 games getting another 100.

    I know where horde can jump up...Do you know where alliance can jump up?

    I don't believe u

    The fact you didn't describe it says....No

    Horde just go a bit south of aid station and they can jump up from the valley. To my knowledge there is no equivalent in the horde base...? I'm willing to have my eyes opened but for now i'm gonna call bulllllshit

    Actually, its roughly the same. We're talking a matter of seconds at best.

    In all 20 of my games yesterday, Galv wasn't even killed once. Even in the 7 games that turned into Horde wins because after we got all the rep objectives, 20 guys trinketed back to FWK and wiped the allies. Even after losing momentum, they just milled around and STILL didn't go after rep/honor objectives. And lost.

    Reputation can be gained from the following sources during an Alterac Valley match:

    Killing the enemy General (+389 reputation)
    Killing the enemy Captain (+125 reputation)
    Killing the enemy Lord (+125 reputation)
    Destroying an enemy tower (+12 reputation)
    Killing an enemy Lieutenant or Commander (+12 reputation each)
    Killing an enemy Air Master (+5 reputation)
    Killing an enemy guard (+5 reputation up to Honored)
    Killing an enemy player (+1 reputation)

    At the end of the match, additional reputation is earned for the following conditions:

    Enemy Captain killed (+36 reputation)
    Allied Captain still alive (+125 reputation)
    Enemy Tower(s) destroyed (+24 reputation each)
    Enemy Lieutenant(s) and Commander(s) killed (+12 reputation each)
    Controlled intact Tower(s) (+12 reputation each)
    Controlled Graveyards (+12 reputation each)
    Controlled Mine(s) (+12 reputation each)

    i mean if you've never heard get fukt or fucked and you're from chicago idk what to say. I grew up where you live*

    Very common

    They might say that yes, if they are causing the confusion.

    OT: Glad I quit Classic when I did, everyday the salt from AV threads alone is too much for my pea brain and popcorn bowl.
