Prologue

Hello. I would like to invite all players from Mmopro into a new, developed by me and a few WoW fans, instant PvP server! We have been working since april 2010 on this project and our goal is to deliver fully working and stable server.

It's an instant PvP server (with s6/t9 at start), aimed for BGs, world and Arena PvP with closed instances, and no PvE scripts for a better performance.

We want to create an alternative for lagged Arena Tournament, Retail or 'good' instants, ****ed up by custom items, which we DO NOT support and we WILL NOT be supporting ever.

It's a server aimed for 'fun play', but the our system is organised that way, that even an elite PvPer won't be bored and won't leave us after 1 day.

We use the best and the most advanced emulator TC2 with a lot of our own fixes/modifications, which proves that we're going for quality not quanity.

It isn't a server that will die because of no sponors, because our sponsor has his own server room and we are also planning to increase power of our server machine if we reach 80-90% of it’s maximal usage.

V. Player Vs Player

1.Battlegrounds:

Warsong Gulch: 1/5 [100%]
Arathi Basin: 1/5 [100%]
Alterac Valley: 1/5 [100%]
Eye of the Storm: 1/5 [100%]
Strand of the Ancients: 1/5 [85%]
Isle of Conquest: Closed [65%]
Random Battleground: YES

Important:

1) Wintergrasp will not be available, cuz WG dosn't make much sense as long as there is not 3k+ online on the server.

2) IoC in plans, but first of all we want to hit stable number of 300 players online.

3) Server offers special system that helps BG-PvP on the server, that informs everyone on chat about starting Bgs and queues for BGs/rBGs

4) Server uses a special system that balances the amount of players on BG, which guarantees us fair play, at least in the matter of players on each side (works perfectly).

2. PvP Arenas:

[Arena Type] <-> [Amount of matches]

Arena PvP [2v2]: Non-stop
Arena PvP [3v3]: Low amount
Arena PvP [5v5]: None

Season Available: Arena Season 8

Important:

New ArenaPvP formula makes >2200 ratings reachable as simple as never before (more blizzlike).

VI. Advanced

Important:

*Same ranks show in PvP stats on web.
