Arena World Championship Dragonflight Cup 2

"...a prize pool of $400,000..."

And this is why the game caters to this rubbish. Eeeeeeeverything has to be an Esport, eeeeeverything needs to get views! Marketing ahoi! What do you mean, an MMO needs to play differently, nonsense! Just look at all this money!

Not my cup of tea, but sounds nice for people who like this kind of thing, both watching and participating.

I would have to be a massive douchebag if I wanted WoW to only have the kind of content that I enjoy and mocked or criticized any content I don't, even when it's clearly not meant for me and any non retarded person would understand that and simply let it be for those that do enjoy it. Nobody likes that kind of person, not only around videogames, but in life in general.

It's pvp arena... has been like this for over 15 years... "MMO needs to play differently" good that you are not a dev, probably would be stuck casting one spell while dodging one slow ass fire circle and half of the gameplay would be drinking mana drinks. Top gameplay here boys!

Nobody cares about this.

And thats $400k split across all cups and so many players. If you are a "professional" pve/pvp player in wow, if you arent selling your coaching on patreon you are better off at a retailer.

You care, it seems.

WoW will never be a proper esport, no matter how hard is blizzard trying. Better focus on core game than 0,001% that almost no one cares.

"Wealthyman pops his cooldowns, Pshero has no defensive spell left and is in HUUUGE trouble... aaaand its all over, back to Ziqo's annoying haircut!"
