So a few days ago a Horde guildie reminded me that the S1 ring was going away today and while grinding marks and honor to pick it up, I ran a few Warsong Gulch BGs. I’ll simply state that I hate WSG and leave it at that. However, it never ceases to amaze me at the lack of situational awareness people exhibit. I managed to solo cap TWICE with no escort and no attacks. How’d I do it? By doing the one thing that people don’t expect you to do: I ran around behind the Alliance GY, dropped off the cliff as far over as possible, and sucked wall back to our ramp. There were tons of people in the middle, and any one of the Alliance could have seen me and stomped me flat. But since everyone seemed to be focused on the center, I slipped by with nary a peep.
Don’t get me wrong; I’m not a particularly good WSG player, not by a long shot. Against a competent team there’s no way I would have pulled this off once, much less twice. But when everyone starts playing grabass in the middle, it opens a lot of possibilities.
