While this is certainly true in the later part of the game, it isn't true at the beginning. Introduced with The Burning Crusade expansion, this ostensibly seems like a fairly straightforward game of controlling key areas of a map. In practice things are a little trickier. This is because lots of players still seem confused about the basic strategy of the game. Which is why we've compiled a guide to help your side win and make sure that you don't look like a total noob.The basic premise is surprisingly similar to the venerable Arathi Basin battleground - capture and hold positions in order to amass 2,000 points to win. Even so, Eye of the Storm is definitely still worth mastering - for three reasons.There's another reason too (yes, we know that makes four) - playing a different battleground will stave off boredom.

A better starting strategy is to split the teams up so two or three players go for the two towers on your side of the map, while a larger contingent attempts to capture an opposing tower. As long as your team can then respond to your opponents' movement quickly enough, you should find that you have a quick win on hands. Of course, if you can manage to grab all four towers, you'll win incredibly quickly - generally in less than a minute.There are two types of player in Eye of the Storm: those that assault and hold towers, and those that rush to the flag. This latter group will even argue that collecting flags is the best way of winning. They are wrong.
