Aye, got it. Thanks Ashvael for explanation via PM.
Just 1 min after I posted my theory in another topic.
Willing to bet Paragon swaped to 10's because they were more easy (they thought) and figured getting 10man world first would be easier than 25... ooops Should have stuck with 25man guild guys!
GZ Method but it's not a world first. But yeah GZ on the EU FIRST 25. Waiting for US 25, EU 10, US 10 now.
They said themselves they prefer 25 (you can find many members saying it on many occasions) but going into MoP they couldn't field a strong enough 25m roster to stay competitive. Considering they were widely considered the best guild at the end of Wrath and throughout Cata (where 10 and 25 were also the "same" like they are now) yet they stayed 25 man. Not sure why you would assume they went 10 just because the world firsts would be a lock, pretty dumb theory IMO.
Edit: I'm gonna go with BL for US 25, Avast for US 10 and Paragon for EU 10.

Probably busy doing other things to do an "official" one yet, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yv5jnLH2VoY
So long as the aisian market gets 2 lockouts and higher Ilevel gear then you cannot toss them in the world race for first IMO. When you look at the world first guilds you can safely assume the players are all crazy good so the gear discrepancy between EU-NA servers and the aisian ones totaly destroys any form of fair competition. May not be what you belive but it's the equivalent of letting nascar drivers D,E+F have cars that have 100 more HP and weigh 500 pounds less and tell A,B,C good luck on the race all is fair!

Congratulations on the real and proper world first kill on Heroic Garrosh! Well Deserved.

I see statements like this and I think it really undercuts just how well Method executed this tier. I mean if Method works hard, recruits hard, and plays better than they ever have before and kills the end boss faster than the previous end boss, the tier gets labelled as easy, a joke, etc. which is really not fair. Personally for me I have to say the difficulty progression from Malkorok, all the way through Garrosh has been steep. There are not many fights in say, ToT that I would say are harder than the back 6 on SoO and its been a long, long time since I've seen non-end bosses as difficult as Seigecrafter and Paragons. Maybe I'm wrong and months from now we'll have more Garrosh kills than expected, but we'll see.
Honestly watching Method has been amazing. They were really dialed in during SoO and I think Garrosh's swift death can be lent heavily to that focus. I somehow suspect that they really wanted to ensure they killed Garrosh on 25 before Paragon could kill it on 10. We understand the split but the average forum goer still says "WF is WF" so being able to eradicate any and all doubt probably feels great for them.
