He said 2000 rating is easily obtainable just by playing a lot and it's a plus if you don't have downs syndrome , but 2000 rating is still obtainable if you have a Death Knight on your team.
The reason I don't play a DK, and will never level cap a DK. I give no respect to anyone who attains an 1800 rating with a DK. If you can't get 1800+ with a DK, you have downs.(Geared/skilled DK's can literally destroy 2 people at once in 2v2, even full furious geared people playing at a 2k level.)
If you win about 50% of your games, you can get to 2k rating after a lot of games played (probably 300-400 games, maybe less if you're lucky in who you're facing).
This is false.
You can only get to 2k with 50% win/loss ratio if you have a MMR of 1800-2k when you start. If you don't, you need at least 54-56% win/loss ratio to keep going up.
Example- Last season, with my ret(my poor ret... QQ) we couldn't get over 1770. We played loads of games. My resto druid I played with was a bit.... special.... but w/e. We had a 52%ish win/loss ratio and 600-800 games played.
With MMR, your rating is based on who you win against. If you have poor gear, and only win against the poorly geared, you won't move up. If you win against people wearing more gear than you, you will typically keep moving up. If you lose to a lower rated team with a better comp or that is more skilled, you lose a lot more than your "floating" wins against equally geared players.

But I want everyone else's opinion, If PvP is that easy I don't know if I want to reactivate my account. I love WoW a lot hopefully someone can explain this to me a bit more.
Do come back! The more people playing the game, the better.
And to answer your question, since everyone has been explaining the rating system mostly, it is still incredibly challenging to be the best. An influx of casuals and a new rating system make gearing up easier, yes, but to become the best still requires immense skill.
If you made gearing up through Arena your previous goal, maybe set a new goal as getting Gladiator?

system is a crap now
If you're on for example 1800 MMR you can lose more than you win and still go foward
old system was way better

Arenas is getting harder, not easier, because people are getting better, not worse.

I am starting to feel the various ratings were thought up by some kid on a bus in between window licking fests. me and a couple rl friends havent ran arenas since BC, so when we formed our threes team, we had like zero MMR, with sero team rating. so we have won more than we have lost, more recently now that the damn resto druid has gotten his spec straight, and replaced all of his cloth...anyway, what has been happening to us, is we pull up every team we face after the match, compare their gear, and look at the teams they are on in other brackets. on monday, nearly every team we fought was in full furious or such, and had an MMR of like 1600 to go with their 5v5 team ratings of 1800 and such. about the time our arena rating hit 1100, we would only get 7 points for a win against these guys in full furious, from 1800 rating 5v5 teams...but lose ten if we lost to a similar team...it took us two hours to figure out we were getting points awarded based on the other teams arena rating, not their match making rating, which makes no sense at all. clearly they are at least as good as us, or we wouldnt be fighting them in the first place, what gives with the points nazi action?
