Apples and oranges.

PvP BGs and Arena are incentivized at-level. That is the difference between PvE and PvP design. In PvP, new brackets are added, and the rewards are kept level-appropriate. That is how they got away with only 4 BGs in two+ years (WSG, AB, AV, EoS until Wrath).

When PvE was upgraded the content was popular again: Naxx. And what do you suppose will happen with those old heroics in 3.2 with Conquest emblems?

Why, if you took good ol’ SM and added a max-level heroic mode with the best emblems, and loot that upgraded in ilvl with every patch, I guarantee you that it would *always* be popular.
