Stay in 50-59 bracket?

Stay in 50-59 brackets until I have access to Blood Guard gear (maybe even Legionnaire isnce I'm probably gonna be farming PvP all week to boost my rank) or do I move onto 60 asap?

I want to know if random 60 BG's are really just premades VS premades, or horde being camped by ally premades, vice versa etc.

I would get blood guard before I hit 60 if I were you.

A lot of the people from the 49 bracket are planning to move up to the 59 bracket starting tomorrow-ish, so it might get active here soon.

Barely any premade vs premade because everyone leveled his dodge skill to 300 by now.

If you're not premading on 60 you will most likely face a premade and although some are really bad, your pug team is too unorganized to win.

If you for some reason do not face a premade, it's either a ghost game (e.g. 12vs3), boring as hell but at least some quick honor, or it's a pug vs pug.

Pug vs pug, happening in around every 17th BG, is pretty much always won by the horde.

Alright. Sounds like I'm hitting at least Blood Guard before dinging 60. Also,

Just play AV starting Saturday, you'll be in the same bracket either way.

Some of the best solo pvp ive ever had was defending my gnoll and harpy cave as i grinded 51 to 60 without contributing to AV at all.

Alterac Valley is a long, overrated battleground that doesn't give enough honor.
