Because if I just randomly enable it again, it will suck, no one will queue, it will get full of wintraders and you will QQ at me for ruining it for enabling it too fast.

If you want 3v3 to come back, you need to let us have time to plan out the best possible way to bring it back (which is quite difficult to be honest) else it will fail horribly again.

Okay so instead of randomly enabling it build some hype. Post on forums that it's coming in like 3 weeks, have one of those "Tips" that shows up in game explain that it's coming.

To attract more players create some incentives, ie phoenix mount for 3v3 glad (maybe make it a ground mount like chromatic so people can use it outside outland), maybe allow tier6 to be purchased if a certain 3v3 rating is reached cause I know most arenas players cba to grind badges for it. Or maybe don't give top titles for 2v2?

If you want to attract players you need to give incentives for the bracket.

As for wintrading, if more players play then wintraders are more likely to be caught as people would report, I'm assuming. Otherwise get a gm to just police that bracket.

I understand that it may be difficult to re-enable the bracket, but is there any active work towards it?

Announce it soon enough (2-4 weeks), so people can gather up and create arena teams (groups).
For R1 you should give-out a special price, I'd suggest this one:

overall i appreciate the idea bout the new 3v3...

but as reward also mount is kinda boring isnt it ??
why not smth different and unique ?? like special arena gear.. more insane then s4 gear... that would make arena more attractive.. cuz mounts are just style things..

and to avoid abusing that gear in arenas... after you have a full set of that gear.. you cant join a arena with tha gear...

i like that idea cuz its non donor gear and smth real new...



at least i would ask: can you pls enable mounts like the aq mount anyways ?? or the raven lord again ??
ik its offtopic but that would makes any pve more attractiv and better targets to aim for...

well but as you see on the normal arena (2v2) only a few ppl are rlly active there ..
and why should that change when you get the same rewards for 3v3 just in a different style.

that wont change anything.. cuz ppl "like" mounts... but dont "need" mounts.. and thats why ppl will think: "ah dont wanna play arena, its so hard and suckz all the s4 guys there.. and just for this stupid mount which ill never get only the 5 ppl with there 20 twinks that are always rank1-6".

and that will only change when you have real different rewards...
