Another biased nod for Ruin. Bleeding Hollow seems to have a lot of 'premades' running constantly during BG weekends with a usual 200 resilience requirement. Not so much for AV though, as our win % for Alliance is amazing when put in the context of this boycott business we hear so much about. Pugging often gets good results with fairly quick race games. Rarely do you get less than 300 bonus honor for 10-15 minutes work, which easily beats out what AB and WSG offer for longer games. Queue times are also good. Longest queue i've been in lately was a 14 minute AV queue. A one off. 4-6 mins for AV is the norm.

From my experience transfering off Anub'arak, in the Whirlwind Battlegroup, don't ever go there, unless you want and easy 2000+ team. The Reckoning BG is actually really competitive from my experience on Horde, and Alliance have a 50% win percentage in BGs. Looking into that Battlegroup might not be a bad idea.

Everyone come to Shattered Hand - Ruin. We have one of (the largest?) battlegroup in terms of teams, all battlegrounds go about 50-50 with only 5 minute queues on AV and instant WSGs etc. There's guilds to buy BT gems from, many guilds to run lower instances with. It's a day one server.

Arena queues are instant for 5s/3s and 5-8 minutes for 2s.

We have horde that sometimes like to raid major cities and descent world pvp.

Stormstrike is just a miserable failure of a battlegroup. You have Mal'Ganis and BDF in there, but they don't make up for the fact that the rest of Stormstrike is made up of ghost towns (Dalvengyr, Ysondre) and release-day backwaters (Archimonde, Dalaran). I've been playing Horde side on Mannoroth and have found Ruin to be a much more enjoyable and balanced battlegroup.

My own personal observations of Battlegroup 11 has the Horde winning 75% of pug EoTS, AB and WSG and Alliance winning about 75% of pug AVs. There seems to be a fair amount of retardedness on Alliance side with the most basic strategies for AB/WSG/EoTS being above the skill level of many/most players.

I suggest looking elsewhere than Vindication to be honest.

recently transfered from BG6 to Rampage (BG?), I would not recommend it if you are looking for an easy honor grind.
Alliance lose AV 95% of the time with the most horrible score (0-600+). Overall AV is a waste of time.
There are some decent pug wins in EotS though, but nothing to compensate for the horrible experience AV is.
