    Does anyone else think of Game of Thrones whenever they get an unsullied armor piece?

    I wonder if the name was inspired by GoT somehow..

    Unlikely. It's common knowledge that Blizzard does not reference popular culture because it can open them up to copyright infringement.

    Is that sarcasm? Because it sounds like sarcasm. Blizzard has used HUNDREDS of pop culture references throughout the years. It feels like 80+% of achievements are some sort of pop culture reference.

    OT: Honestly any time I get one of those items I don't even look at the name, I just see what armor type is it, I place it in the mailbox and send it to an alt. But I wouldn't be shocked if it was related to the game of thrones unsullied.
