Yay for frontline

8v8 is near instant pops almost every night for Aether.

I have work/school at night. Morning/afternoon 8v8 goes 6-7 hours solid without popping.

What time is the dividing line for the Aether PvP queue to go from '6 hours' to 'instant'? PvP popping like a PvE Tank queue sounds mythical and amazing.

It's only a slim amount of time compared to the hugh mungus amount of time some people end up queuing for it, but you get the gist of it.

Yeah I wasn't meaning to belittle you, sorry if it came across wrong. Just saying that (sadly) if my PvP queues regularly popped after 116 minutes, it would be a significant improvement.

Oh thats lame D:. I never tried 8v8 during that time of day, mainly because I usually have much more success with frontlines (shatter/seal rock) in the earlier hours than I do in the late hours.

Typically I start queueing 8v8 around 9PM EST, and it's almost non-stop queues for the whole night. At least it has been for the week.

Ah, okay. That matches up with my experiences then, I can get Frontlines to actually pop during my login time on good days (not a lot, but it does pop at least). Whereas the time you're saying 8v8 picks up is a couple hours after I leave for the night, so I guess I'm missing the window of opportunity completely.

Maybe its because you q as a DRK lool

Why would that affect anything about Frontline queue time?

Everyone should know by now to restart the q after 30min also on Aether you even get sealrock/slaughter pops on a regular base probably cause of WT.

This and que manually instead using roulette if possible.

Is there any actual experiments supporting this, or is it just anecdote / community legend? Because I've tried it in all the proposed ways — Roulette, no Roulette; Reset queue, don't reset queue — and ended up with basically the same average number of matches in a session.

Because every night that the (almost) the same 16 or 30 ppl que again and again... Like you and me XD
