Proof that people move for the win rather than the fight: DC queues are ridiculous now.

Never had a queue outside of weekends. DC wins one. Start getting small queues that grow to moderate queues (10-30) weeknights near the end of a second campaign with the win. Now early in the campaign after the 2nd win, 90+ queue on a freaking weeknight. FTMFL

I don't think it matters where you go, this will ultimately be the ending; but whats AD look like right now? (kidding before my guild PvP leader kills me lol)

That's just people looking for good fights, at least that is what they all say.

People can only "move for the fight" once a month now due to locks though, so that's not really proof of that choice. Rather, it's proof of why faction lock is irritating and has exacerbated imbalance even more, because there's no way to know how many rerolls, babies, or guilds playing from other campaigns (and, heck, factions) you're going to end up with in a given month. And it sure isn't something you can tell in five minutes, unless you avoid the entire first week of the campaign.

I personally love the faction lock, it makes the campaign more serious and makes faction choice actually matter on something in this game.
