"Twinks" as they are called, have been a part of WoW ever since the game has come out. I don't think Blizzard intended to create them, but with their creation, their community is now bigger than ever. They also have found ways to get the best enchants possible on the best characters.
In patch 2.3, they not only made leveling to create one easier, but they also integrated new items, as well as upping all the older items that were available to them, adding another reason to twink, when you can get the best items, and they keep making them better for you, why not?
I have made many twinks, all level 29, and I know for a fact, that it can get very competitive when your in a back and forth battle, or a premade battle between another twink guild. There is a lot of pride to be gained, and a lot of admiration on the forums. If you check the battleground forums, they are all over come with twink posts at all level brackets. These brackets which I consider able to twink, are as follows:
10-19
20-29
30-39
People say twinks don't take skill, but you are wrong. If you are twinked just as well as the other team, it not only takes skill, but also communication. Blizzard needs to create tournaments of the best twinks, not only in WSG and all, but also arenas. This is a huge community, and can not be ignored. Everyone loves to have the best character, and also the best battles, through this you can have both, and add skill as well. |
