Blood Legion vs Paragon vs STARS vs Exorsus - May 12th!

[hasslehoof]

BL will probably win because they take these events really serious and make preperations before they go.

[asharia]

Awesome!

I don't care who wins, its just really fun to watch.

Also, Dexter is my hunter-ing hero!


I'm actually really stoked that it has kinda caught on. Its a great way to add a little bit of interest to raiding during the 'farm' periods.

Paragon's chance to redeem themselve as the best guild over the course of the last 3 years.

remind me where they lost a fair world first race since lk hc? they still pushed over many guilds even with a 1 week ban.

[Jomu]

Disagree with the comments being made on Athene.. Much rather have an excited french dude with a great n funny accent, over the usual american whos done it all and sounds kind of bored cos of the lack of excitement.
Also, loved the last event, lets have some more!

They did kill DW a week after Kin. So seems like they might have lost either way.

Paragon took a break during the christmas holidays because they had already lost the world first iirc.

[Madruga]

This is gonna be cool! I hope it is really tight, so we can have an exciting match!

Paragon are quite the force, but still human nonetheless and susceptible to mistakes. However, they are defiantly the ones to beat.

[Pacer]

I hope Athene wont be commentating this time, being a bad commentator is one thing, not knowing the name of the bosses is just retarded.

He gets excited about stupid stuff that no one cares about and interrupted Kina when he was saying important stuff such as x just died.

[Espada]

Theses events are nice, but sincerely... It doesn't get that interesting. I watched the Vodka/Method stream last time and it got interesting because they ended up being so close even though there was a wipe, but there isn't that much interest to watch a pve encounter killed lots of times. If blizzard were to put a little effort on it they may end being really interesting. No need to design new pve encounters, just throw two bosses together for example. Like the Shannox+Alysrazor combat some guilds have done and recorded. Things like that could rack thousand upon thousand of views, but they need a bit of Blizzard support. In DS for example there is no way to pull two bosses together, nor they will go too well together, but there are tons of double encounters they could make up mixing T11, T12 and T13 content.

Paragon is going to win.

Yeah, my money is on them or Blood Legion. BL did a good job in FL at Blizzcon.

[Stalv]

Agreed. I know Blood Legion are actively preparing for it already.

[TJ]

Paragon are going to serve up a huge can of whoopass.

Only reason KIN got in the top 5 this tier is because the other guilds were banned. Paragon and Method would have definitely beat them if they didn't exploit the system, wouldn't put it past Envy either.

Not saying the ban wasn't deserved, but that's my definite opinion.


I'd rather have KIN win rather than BL though anyday. BL fit the American sterotype and are not very nice people to keep it vague.

[Kazlehoff]

im sure Paragoners will figure out some way to Exploit or Class stack to another victory.

edit: 666th post. lul win

[Blitzc]

I'll be looking forward to seeing Blood Legion.

And Rigg's screaming

Best hope someone makes a mistake!

What makes you think they need to redeem themselves?

Over the last 5 tiers, Paragon has completely dominated 4 of them... keep in mind two of those tiers including Heroic LK and Heroic Rag, which were by far (by far by far by far) the hardest bosses the game has seen for a very long time.

They lost the race in DS (one of the worst tiers of all time), but they still got EU first. They were plagued with the LFR ban (not going to get into it... but it was reported on the PTR forums long before 4.3 went live), and they took a break during the holidays, or else they might have finished higher than they did.

Sorry, obviously KIN Raiders and others are amazing guilds, but Paragon is still the guild to beat in MoP.

[Stalv]

**I believe that the current Rank 7 Russian guild 'Медовые Плюшечки' has been added to the race as well!**

[Spoiledkid]

But how strong are those guilds' current rosters when T13 race ended 4 months ago and MoP's release date isn't even announced yet? Most of them must be having a break atm.

[Drakoes]

I was on the edge of my seat with vodka vs method, now things just got even more real with this upcoming challenge
