Ive heard this arguement before already, i dont understand this arguement. The reason wow arena is so boring is because of a multitude of problems (hard to see hp, view looking birds eye down, hard to distinguish teams). The fact is: If we were to watch another sport (football, baseball) in the same fashion as the crap we're being fed through the stream right now, no one would watch those sports. The reason you're bored isnt because of RNG, at least it pales in comparison to the above
