Race to World First Predictions

[LCDArcade]

Blood Legion for life. I feel that this is their time to shine and will finally get world first this expansion for each tier
Riggnaros is LIFE!!!

[Volibear]

I dunno. I feel that Paragon are a bit of a wildcard for WoD, seeing as nobody's seen them perform >10man recently.

Regardless, it'll be an interesting race!

Like you mean for raiding? I thought this was about levelling at first, now I'm not so sure :P

Yeah world first raid tiers.

[Torque21]

Riggins is life? That's weird.

Who cares? Never cared about any guild getting a world first. Anyone can get world first if they set aside the time and didn't have to work a 40+ hour/week job.

Method or Midwinter.

European guilds always have the world first kills.

Midwinter? That's an interesting prediction.

All 7 day a week guilds do that and considering very select few guilds can lay claim to a world first kill I'd beg to differ considering how many 7 day a week guilds have come and gone.

Actually, only 20 people can get a world first mythic kill. I don't know how many aim for it, but certainly more than 20, so your statement is wrong.

And asking 'Who cares?' when previous posts already answered that makes you sound like a jelly. If you didn't care, you wouldn't post. Or you would at least say 'I don't care'

Well it's exciting to have world firsts. It makes the game more competitive and the guilds have a sense of urgency when defeating the encounters.

As for if anyone could do it; doubt it really. It takes more than just time and pure dedication to do it. You also need good execution, good reactions, a lot of game knowledge and the ability to just absorb information like a sponge. The guild who raids it for the first time has to figure out how to do it themselves.

If I had to place money I would put it on Method, I'd be skeptical of Paragon because of the fresh return to 20-man but I wouldn't exclude them yet at all, but Blood Legion is definitely still a potential option would love to see all their work in MoP pay off.

I'm going with paragon. Why? They have a really nice moonkin that posts in the druid section here a lot and I think they deserve it for all the doubters about the whole "THEY WERE A TEN MAN!" thing!

[Kapaya]

While Paragon has been out for a while, I believe in the fins! Also I've always loved their kill videos so I hope they'll start making those again!

I don't think people doubt them because they feel ten man is not a real place to raid or anything like that, it is because suddenly adding 10+ people to a roster their first tier might not be insanely good.

I wouldn't think so. Being able to raid many, many hours every day is necessary to be able to even compete, but that doesn't mean that anyone who does it stands a chance.

Anyways, Paragon or Method will win! Don't think Midwinter will stand a chance with the "small amounts" of raiding they do compared to other guilds.

I think Paragon or Method, and most likely Paragon. Paragon is so fast at getting pulls in after coming up with a strat that works.

There is only one US contender and thats Midwinther. I find Midwinthers style of approching bosses much better than Blood Legion, judging by streams only.

Could be any of them as I have no clue how hard Mythic really is. If it's a bit easier than heroic used to be, the one day advandtage of US might be what counts.

[MrExcelion]

Hard to bet against Method until we see otherwise. Many guilds aren't willing to put in the number of alts to brute force gear week 1, nor put in the hours.

If the 1 day delay thing still exists, you might see them not get Highmaul though, small instance and all. Iron Maidens will brick wall guilds in BRF.

Judging by streams? Not sure what you mean but considering Blood Legion's kills are extremely clean compared to other guild's I'd find that hard to believe I think Midwinter one day might compete for World Firsts but judging by what we've seen in MoP today is not that day.

Sorry to break it to you but they removed World First and Realm First achievements.

World First achievements never existed, but there's still a Realm First spam for end bosses: http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=9...mperators-fall [only kind that still exists iirc]

[Feindy]

isnt it a bit too early? highmaul starts in about three weeks and then there are 8 more weeks before the first wod tier hits
