Blown Battleground Leads

As is usually the case when I am doing the three battleground daily quests, I steam through the 5x participation and 1k score quests with a bunch of wins. However, when it comes to the win three battlegrounds quest, it sometimes seems like I'm never going to get the big W. In fact there will be several times where it looks like we've got the win in the bag only to be pipped at the post in the final moments.

Please share your blown lead stories so I don't feel as bad about mine. #sad

    Never been on the receiving end of one, but I've given a couple.

    Best one was a CTF game back before all the rubbish changes.

    Joined a game in progress, score was 4-0-0 to the Red team.
    With the help of immovable + speed pots along with medium armour Stam Sorc, I was able to cap red teams relic four times in a row, and during the same period one of my teammates managed to grab purple, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.

    I play a character called "Gives Me Wood Elf" because I am a mature and sensible person.

    The win quests are worse because hardly any PuG cares about playing the objectives. For most people domination, CTR and Chaosball are outright boring. I have been in many a domination match where two teams just brawl it out and the third team caps all flags and wins without ever fighting. So yes, winning can be frustrating.

    I stopped playing BGs when they patched noCP back in but didn't add separate premade/pug choice. Best alternative for me is IC flipping flags.

    Yes been there. Destroying then all of a sudden we can't get the relic etc

    Or like we're about to take the lead and boom timer goes off - loss.

    Or like I have 4k points and my next closest team mate has 400.

    We were trailing a chaosball match 450 - 120 and managed to come back for the win. Think we were just screwing around at first and let it get out of hand. You can do that in chaosball or capture the flag, harder to overcome that deficit in the other game types.

    Yes it does, but there's a bigger problem. Every night, when I play, i see the same people over and over. This massive population, and hardly anyone plays BG's, and I myself usually quit playing after bashing my head against the same coordinated premade a few times.

    Make your own premade! Especially since you’re running into the same people... they probably are just as frustrated as you.
