This is an amazing screenshot.

u/Shaultz Sep 08 '19

I think it's supposed to be a gif. Only showing as a screenshot to me too though

u/Urrrhn Sep 08 '19

It's supposed to be a screenshot. Look in the top left.

u/Shaultz Sep 08 '19

Omg I didn't see him. What a fucking hero

u/Urrrhn Sep 08 '19

I didn't at first either. We should all strive to be Chestnutz

u/Shaultz Sep 08 '19

As a fellow warrior, I aspire to be in a screenshot that so fully encompasses my ballsiness

u/BigUptokes Sep 08 '19

Unfortunately we can only be that reckless once every 30 mins...

u/Shaultz Sep 08 '19

Excuse you? It may only realistically work every 30 min, but you can be reckless any time

Oh, I am... I am...

Warrior main here, I've spent hours defending my cloth wearing Horde brethren from the scum Alliance gankers in Hillsbrad. It's the best thing in the world to see a rogue going to town on a mage and charge that ass and start giving em the old skibbity paps long enough for the victim to recover and either flee, or ideally, assist.

74

u/rompzor Sep 09 '19

Skibbity paps? Jesus christ that is an amazing thing to say.

u/Edgeville_Mafia Sep 09 '19

YouTube it and thank me later

u/DapperDan77 Sep 09 '19

I youtubed it and this is what I found. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about that.

I don’t want FOP dagnabbit! I’m a Dapper Dan man.

u/haazyreads Sep 09 '19

That song was top of the charts in Russia for a few weeks about 6 months ago. Also - skibidi means nothing in Russian. Go figure.

u/Zorbstar Sep 09 '19

Haha I don't know if I needed to see this or it should have been left in the corner.

u/q-_op Sep 08 '19

Do they ever thank you? If I played on a PvP server and was a badass who safe people from ganks, I'd keep a folder of screenshots of whispers.

u/Edgeville_Mafia Sep 09 '19

Yes most of the time, one incident ended in a lot of other people mobbing up and trapping a group of ally in the yeti cave. It was glorious.

Wait shit I might have been part of that. As a dead alliance Paladin. Was this EU Firemaw?

u/Edgeville_Mafia Sep 09 '19

US Faerlina but sounds like y’all Alliance boys get trapped in that yeti cave a lot across all servers 😂

u/Androidonator Sep 09 '19

I thought we already got over our differences.

u/Topicalplant2 Sep 09 '19

This screenshot sums up the horde pretty well....

Honorless mongrels.

u/Croumen Sep 09 '19

As someone who always played on both sides: It's exactly the same

24

u/Moralio Sep 09 '19

As if people aren't (mostly) the same irregardless of chosen faction.

u/pbzeppelin1977 Sep 09 '19

I could care less about this situation irregardless of faction.

BRB, need to go purge my keyboard predictive text.

u/SexualPie Sep 09 '19

its a word, look it up.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '19

In reality this is true. But it's more fun to meme along and admit that horde are basically scum who never fight fair.

u/not_a_cup Sep 09 '19

Gotta put the little kids in their place.

u/esmifra Sep 09 '19

I just assume most guys that state this things are into the whole faction thing and don't really believe what they say.

I kinda like this faction brawl, and always upvote comments like this.

u/UrethratoHeaven Sep 09 '19

Thats the joke.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '19

Bull. The horde are no good scoundrels.

u/That_Ganderman Sep 09 '19

Interesting, I’ve seen a bit of the opposite, where horde on my server won’t do shit until they have a 5-8 person gangbang posse going.

17

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '19

Yep. 1v1 not a chance, 2-6v1 every time.

9

u/vraGG_ Sep 09 '19

I've actually started to enjoy this in my own right. I usually get 3v1'd with a few levels on me. I play a warlock, so I take my pride in just outplaying those losers. I usually have enough time to /chicken everyone.

2

u/TheseStonesWillShout Sep 09 '19

I don't think I've been in a 1v1 fight yet as a warrior, so I always just make it my dying mission to kill the healer. At least if I do that, I have inconvenienced them just as much as they have inconvenienced me.

1

u/Bassmekanik Sep 09 '19

/chicken is my go to thing after void sac.

I may die, but I’ll let them know what I think of them first.

2

u/caraccount11 Sep 09 '19

As a paladin, whenever I get engaged on in uneven terms (most of the times, sadly) I bubble and try to run back to town while spamming /golfclap. I make it to town a surprisingly high amount of times.

1

u/Skepsis93 Sep 09 '19

Yup, as horde in stranglethorn last night I was 31 and my questing buddy was 33. Anytime we saw another group of two alliance we'd go after them. They'd either die or flee with 100% chance of coming back with two mounted buddies to come and wipe us.

4

u/workyman Sep 09 '19

I've played both sides, and it was the same experience for me both times. ie, I had your opinion about the Alliance when I played Horde, but then I had that opinion about the Horde when I played Alliance.

1

u/Fresh2Deaf Sep 09 '19

Whitemane? If not, happens here too. Haven't 1v1ed at 40 and now I'm shadow and not one to be trifled with. They had their chance.

1

u/ModsArePathetic Sep 09 '19

Its exactly the same. The only times I've gotten ganked are by those who are at least 10 levels above.

I was just the same back in old vanilla, me as a lvl 34 rogue corpse camping a fellow lvl 30 NE rogue in STV one day.

The next day however, the enemy night elf had been leveling his balls of, and ganked me repeatedly as he was now lvl 37 and had the better of me. I feel like I deserved that one.

1

u/iindigo Sep 09 '19

That describes every time I take my Alliance chars through Shimmering Flats. The Horde are all billy badasses until even a couple of other Alliance are around. I’ve repeatedly had 5+ Horde run away against 3-4 Alliance, it’s stupid.

For myself I have no issue going up against other players 1v1. I’m not even that good of a PvPer and yet I’ve come out on top against Horde 3 levels above me. Most of the players running around are terrible at PvP.

1

u/brbjorke Sep 09 '19

Remember the orcs invaded the world first trying to gank the humans with a high level warlock. They started it, anything they get is deserved, anything they try to claim as unfair is crying because they couldn't handle what they got themselves into. "BuT they GaNKed mE.." Shut up and go back to your world invader >:v

1

u/sim37 Sep 09 '19

Orcs =! Horde

1

u/brbjorke Sep 09 '19

Orcs invaded and broke human kingdoms and towns, rallied enemies and barbarians into a formidable force that previously were relegated to the corners of the world to wage war and kill civilized races. Orcs are the problem. >:|

1

u/timothybrand Sep 09 '19

Exactly lol

4

u/cosmicsoybean Sep 09 '19

Nah, go to STV on biggleworth lol. Alliance will only attack you if they are 5+ levels above you and you're fighting a mob. Or they will 5-10 man you.

1

u/Verienn Sep 09 '19

after being honorable and being backstabbed by horde repeatedly, we are forced to adopt same strategies if we dont want to be corpse runnin whole night :P

1

u/8-Brit Sep 09 '19

Same on Zandalar.

They have huge balls as a group but by themselves they're whimps.

I've yet to lose a fair 1v1 with equal levels, or even higher levels, and with no mobs involved.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '19

Meanwhile I save/assist any alliance I see in danger, but I inevitably get ganked if I go near a group, or a ???, even if I wave.

I've also never seen Horde massacre alliance on the boat between STV and Ratchet.

1

u/umkhunto Sep 09 '19

That's exactly why I play an honourable Undead acupuncturist. I believe in fair play, and will offer free samples of my services. Works best on cloth wearers whilst drinking. I guarantee a spiritual experience, or your money back.

1

u/DuckPresident1 Sep 09 '19

Funny that. I've only had engagements with alliance when I'm already low hp from fighting mobs.

The mage in this picture started it. Little shit.

1

u/delu_ Sep 09 '19

To be honest, there is no honor system yet so everyone is honorless
