Do You Dare To Enter Warsong Gulch?
Warsong Gulch is probably the most hated of battlegrounds. Many players avoid it at all costs, since many battles turn into hour long marathons for next to zero honor. It doesn't have to be though, all that is required is to understand some basic tactics. Once players understand what is going on and why, it becomes a lot easier to counter it, or make it work successfully. That's why Byron "Messiah" Mudry looks at the basic tactics that can be used in WSG to help you avoid the hour long games.
Lastly, communication is key. If you see something happening that may be important, report it to everyone. This includes things like: incoming enemy, location of enemy groups, number of enemy, how many on defense, location of flag runner, and more. If the defense at your flag is made aware that a group of 4 enemy is incoming from the high path, they can be ready for them. If its announced that 9 are attacking someplace, there is a good chance the flag is essentially undefended and a single player or two can capture it. Knowledge is power, use it.
