Arathi Basin was great because you needed skills and tatics to win, you could not leave a node unguarded or it would be taken, even with 1-2 guarding it still had a chance to be captured by a smart Rogue or abusing engineering items.
Eye of the Storm however requires no skill and you just need to know how to zerg, since the match can't be ended in 3m with a 4 cap you have no reason to really guard since it can't be "ninjaed" you just have to either zerg another one or go zerg to defend.
While in AB you could zerg to a victory it was far harder to be effective and you could still ninja nodes and had an actual reason to guard and call out. Pugs like EoTS better specifically because you don't have to think and the rest of your teammtaes can fail at PvP and still win.
EoTS in AV would be horrible and would just kill the battleground.

I dont know what AB you played... but playing grp v grp AB there wasn't any "ninja caps" because people weren't paying attention... AB was all who brought mages to AE on the flags, which team got the luckiest w/ the GY respawns to AE once and reset the cap timer, and once in awhile whos Rocket helm/MC cap lasted long enough to cap on 2 people. There was a massive reason that WSG was always the prefered BG for competitive play.
