DEFINITIVE BATTLEGROUND BLITZ MAP GUIDE

[@Flarkness]

so much room for discussion on unique strategies and class based advantages on every map. let me hear what you got!

[@erickknutz5599]

I've played this format, but I came back to wow after quitting in WoD. Didn't fully understand the interactions for EotS until watching your vid, how the heck was an avg casual pvp'er suppose to learn how it works? Can't believe Blizzard didn't put in some way to teach new players.

[@sakkiebasson2052]

What would be nice tips is generic simple strategies to type out pre game

[@davidquadrato8116]

got used to calling the water cart on mines “Mid” instead of water to avoid confusion. but if your team is losing lava then off carts are the most important and swapping both top and lava to go up can change the outcome of the entire game if done right. a lot of people dont even know you can swap the direction

[@kalasmournrex1470]

I love bgs so much more than arena. Glad we can finally make progress like this without having to have a full rbg group.

[@prod7906]

Bg blitz is like rbgs but I can't tell people to kys or call people the n word for being garbo at the game. It sucks tbh.

[@rmalaf]

Same!

[@wowprobeast7543]

It’s definitely nice, I feel like I have a lot more agency in bg blitz as a healer than I do in solo shuff

[@xMerkMane]

Yesssir!!!

[@BasedChadman]

I like catching someone on a road and not having to play pop goes the weasel around a damn pillar all game

[@Bobromir-yn8jx]

You are talking with such enthusiasm that I just want to queue up and win some bgs after watching this.

[@Flarkness]

AND YOU WILL! I wish many fantastic bg blitz games for you when war within season 1 starts up. maybe we'll be on the same team for some of them!

[@vvt17]

I thought I knew how blitz worked until I watched this video! The tier list ones were great, but this was on another level!

[@dharmse01]

Your strat explanation on temple is invaluable. It's going to be interesting to see when 70% of the player base play the exact opposite way.

[@iVibeBruh]

Lmao haven’t watched the video yet but this is hilarious

[@tsolakeshadowmoon9025]

the holy grail of BGB videos

[@JayKay4347]

I feel like anyone new to Battleground blitz should watch this like an introductory video lol, hell even for random battlegrounds its helpful. I have a better understanding now of what my class should be doing. Thank you, I appreciate the great content. 🤙

[@Flarkness]

that's what I was going for and I'm so glad you think it delivered. I really hope, even though it's very long and wordy if someone is not understanding a map (like temple or the new EOTS rules) they can just click the timestamps and get a feel for it quickly so the game mode is more fun and enjoyable to them.

[@neddy170]

Great video, thank you. I was a little clueless about some of the rules and mechanics. This cleared up all that up.

[@Splasch6]

This video is insane, thank you so much! I just came back to WoW for Blitz and this video explains perfect what the mode is fast fights and smart tactics.

[@DieByFlyGuy1984]

I can’t recall why I thought I disliked you, but your content is really solid and very well explained so I apologize for maybe having jumped to conclusions before I gave your channel a shot. Keep up the good work.

[@thomaskrebs9783]

Love this content, man keep it up. One question though on Temple. My understanding is that holding an orb will grant you five points per tick if you’re on the outskirts. These ticks take place every five seconds and are independent when you pick the orb up. Killing an orb carrier provides 10 points to the opposing team. With that being the case, wouldn’t it make sense for any class to pick up orbs if they don’t have a teammate who is better equipped to do so near them at the time

[@DrArmature]

THANK YOU. BEEN LOVING THE CONTENT.

[@BackyardPvP]

Wow first video I’ve seen with such depth for this mode of PvP - that’s such a good resource for what is most likely going to become the new solo shuffle or most wide spread most main stream PvP experience that will dictate if this new expansion is a complete success or just another dragonflight where is kind of okay but que times were such a problem - thank you flarkness

[@samueljames8920]

Love binging these guides, best pvp content I’ve had

[@matthewwarnke170]

Flark, you have a real talent for information dissemination. Love the chanel.

[@Flarkness]

thank you man. I'll work on getting the next few to be a little more streamlined in delivery, it's been a long while since I made youtube videos.

[@queze009]

Loving the content!!! Glad your back Flarkness. Do Ele Shaman guide for pvp pls!

[@Flarkness]

I actually already have one! the ele guide is on my channel already, the thumbnail is "the engine"

[@queze009]

I am sorry, I said that wrong. I have already watched that video like ten times lol. I was more so talking about what an ele shaman should be focusing on doing in Battle ground blitz.

[@Flarkness]

gotcha!! no worries

[@TheNat11]

thanks man, that was awesome and helped me understand so much! !

[@fenris7519]

Ty Flark, great content as allways

[@xMerkMane]

Thanks bro. This was a vid I didn’t know I needed but glad I saw on my sub feed lol

[@Millirawk]

First time in a while I've actually been really excited for an Xpac, love this content flark thank you for making scrubs like me better at pvp😝

[@Flarkness]

I get excited for every expac because I'm just a wow addict, but I think war within pvp has the most going for it in a while between hero talents and the new mode that really will help bring new players to pvp.

[@LefthandedmetalDevil]

Amazing guide! Love it. Quick question; as a newly started DK would you recommend frost or unholy to start out with? Looking for the easiest to get a good feel for, leveled in blood spec so both are new to me lol

[@jeremieeich2243]

Nice vidéo with lot of info, more of an introduction than "ultimate" guide ;) imo you should add the game numbers, i was waiting for it the whole vidéo (how much is a worth in eotc, with 1-2 base? how much is a tick in arathi, etc). Especially important to know at which point you can cap to close the game. But yeah, only so much you can fit in a 1h video ^^

[@Flarkness]

yeah some editing stuff like adding score and other bits of info to the screen in post would probably have been useful, I didn't know which of all these videos I recorded would do well and be well received and I hadn't made youtube videos in so long that I just wanted so info first. as the expansion comes out I should get better and better with more practice!

[@jcline87]

It's nice that the fundamentals of BG's haven't changed since vanilla. All the strategies we used to use back in the good old days are still valid, do something to slow/disrupt the other team regardless.

[@Bryan0407]

Awesome content Flark! If you were to put together a RBG team, what would be your comp?

[@Flarkness]

probably something like rogue boomy mw pres rdruid dk dh lock for the staple. then I could grab like a dev for the frost dk go and quick peels, maybe a mage for really clean utility/basesitting.

[@davidschultz2198]

Well done , my boi🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@sierranex]

TY! I'm a new player and this helped alot! I can't find this info in the actual game 😂

[@jackLoveX]

How do you convince the other 6 players to do the right strat tho? Especially on EOTS. I always explain that both towers > flag but NO ONE listens. Even duo queueing. We both sit on glad mounts explaining it in /say together and STILL no one listens. Do you just take the Ls on those games or was there anything you could do?

[@Flarkness]

unfortunately low MMR is kinda a wild west, all you can do is try and explain as best as possible and make as many plays as possible. if you do this every game, you'll eventually slowly get out of the MMR where that's an issue and onto games that matter.

[@harrylong2796]

this video should be mandatory viewing for all people before they can play BG Blitz lol

[@incognito8477]

Holy shit, great guide dude thanks

[@Flarkness]

you're very very welcome. let me know if there's any other battleground blitz related questions you have that I didn't cover!

[@csimmeri]

Video idea suggestion: a dedicated video about class and spec roles in BGB. For instance, DKs are good target callers, hunters are good flag sitters, blah blah blah.

[@Dark3nedDragon]

Temple, had a bunch of low 2ks get mad at me as a Ret for not picking up the orb. Bro there were no orbs dead before I get to middle, the only way orbs got returned is after I got into mid and started my spree. Hold on though, let me exit mid after killing one of the 3 carriers while I have no defensives other than BOP and Divine to go grab an orb on the other side of the map.

[@mrf7352]

finally new rbg content/guide noones does this ! ! PLEASE ALL INFO u get to us

[@cake658]

great video

[@frodovandongen4912]

Thank you for this vid.

[@bonanzai]

Poggers video!

[@averageoptions]

BG blitz still cross faction right in TWW?

[@Flarkness]

yep absolutely. battleground blitz is rated so both factions can q together.

[@TheShawnMower]

Damn wish i found this guide weeks ago.

[@007-spideysense]

Im a returning player and found this video very helpful. Ive been maining rogue. You made alot of comments about rogues ability to take points in Arathbi basin and the MOP off brand atlrathi, but as a Rogue I guess i dont feel like im living up to that potebtial. Anytime i try to sap + cap or blind + a base in AB I get interupted. I dont know if Im getting bad luck and people always have their cooldowns up and theyre trinketing my CC or whats happening. But it doesnt feel like a 4 sec cast time lol cause i never get it off. Could you give me some pointers on how to be a better rogur in RBG

[@Eddie_Makes]

I'm wondering what 'role' you would put a Ret Pally in?

[@marcelovassoler3334]

One important thing I notice, I don't know is a bug or inteded, you CANNOT cap a base when you are taking DOT damage in blitz, is not a Boomy "shooting stars" thing, I was unable to cap a base from a rogue with full fear/seduction because his poison damage. And I defend Lamber Mill, only putting a Flame Shock on the mage who throwed me down.

[@Flarkness]

this ends up not being true, there was a bug where dots modified by hero talents incorrectly spun but that has been fixed since then. and all other forms of dots that didn't get modified by hero talents still don't spin.

[@OWlsfordshire]

Horde is so busted on twin peaks. Ignoring all the gliding BS, its also easier for them to chase an FC back to the 2nd level after they port since they dont have to swim.

[@PumpkinKing31]

Aug is a great flag carrier

[@kalasmournrex1470]

I'll still argue Silvershard Mines is the best. It's the one with the most carry potential. I can't carry a Temple the way I can a Mines.

[@Flarkness]

you know I do like silvershard, but personally I've had the opposite results. couldn't carry anything like I could a temple.

[@thecyclingpablo]

What about the new bg map?

[@iVibeBruh]

I hope this video gets posted in every WoW discord 😂

[@murmurrrr]

How about the new BG?

[@Rediottic]

Dumb question: what's spinning mean?

[@koo1770]

interrupt flag caps

[@petrzurek5713]

U R DA GOAT

[@harrylong2796]

I think deepwind would be better if it had a flag that you had to take back to your base with how many bases you have effecting the amount but that is basically the old version of it lol

[@harrylong2796]

or maybe just make bases uncappable for longer

[@triptriad1101]

Bis video gj

[@TheKobool]

Easy to understand why blood DK actually work in this mode. Just spinning.

[@zoicho_]

this video is super helpful for begginers and 100% better than raging in the bg :D hashtag educationIsTheKey

[@Flarkness]

tryin to use checkpvp to find new players to pvp when I'm in BG blitz and be extra accommodating. new strat is working well.

[@Desertsol1]

Pog!

[@Dragunov0511]

Always hated EotS. From the bottom of my heart.

[@Flarkness]

I've actually felt the exact same way, but the bg blitz version is at least different enough for me to enjoy it a lil more. maybe that will change haha

[@Dragunov0511]

There's also the eots version that throws you into the air every several seconds unless you're under a roof or something, i think that's actually pretty funny 😂​@@Flarkness

[@jotace6961]

You talk a lot about "your duo" or "your partner". Will RBGB feature a Duo queue? Where is this confirmed?

[@Flarkness]

yep, it's confirmed and I've been running it on my stream every night. it's insanely fun and adds a few more plays you can make every bg blitz.

[@luboss0008]

Yo must have game sense no guilde

[@jooperus]

first
