LB vs attunement.

I laugh .

Then you must fake cast the lb and wait the healer use attunement and you healer survive the enemy LB.

cause of lag , u cant realy use attunement in reaction.

When i see people casting lb , its too late for me to do any action to counter it ( europeen player )

Only solution is to try to trap people to lb in attunement

I'd like to let the gentlemen that fought us in ghost costumes know that they made my night.

You gotta bait the melee, let the tank cc you and wait for the sound of casting an LB. ( purify after )
3/4 of the time melees in solo q will be like go go go go go.
So as long as u pop attunement within the cast time and you see the icon buff pop up ur safe.

Great day today! 10 wins out of 14.
did they change anything about the matchmaking btw? I had a rank 35-40 bard in my team and I also had someone who had never played pvp before

the matchmaking is pretty nonsensical. But from what I've seen it *tries* to average out the ranks, so it's not uncommon to see a team of i70 pvp gear vs some rank 30+ and a newbie.

Of course I've seen matches with all 34 vs one 30+ and a bunch of fresh 50s or first timers that ended in under 15 seconds. Going in with a group tends to screw the matchmaking up and put you up against much higher ranks.

The baffling thing is why they even bother keeping it in, since it doesn't work half the time and all it does is ruin queues (which in turn lowers interest in pvp).

Just a speculation but I think the winrate is also being considered. Every Tuesday, most of the time, I'm being teamed up with a decent team. But when weekend comes, when I had gathered enough wins, they start sending me to newbies, while I'm up against high rank players. I know I'm up against high rank players when they start using a lot of abilities on me.

Just go melee and you'll see....

Can someone give me insight on why a lot of SMNs prefer ifrit over garuda in pvp? I figured that ifrit might have more burst dmg and the stun might be useful but it seems he is a lot easier to kite than garuda?
Thanks in advance

[Zerotrocity]

Who knows.. maybe they are bad and dont know? Garuda is the best choice, harder to kite, contagion, and will get off more overall damage.
