    Even if the servers came up late, they still had a massive head start. How can you call it a race when the other team has a 16 hour advantage.

    Even if they had an hour advantage it gives one team more leeway than the other.

    Bringing up the fact the EU has dominated in the past despite us having an advantage is a poor excuse for the advantage existing in the first place.

    It's like saying just them have this one dear, I feel so sorry for them always coming second.

    Been watching both streams, they wipe to the same mechanic point but Limit has the better DPS.
    how do you suppose Echo can kill it if Limit have better dps and still hit enrage at 1-3% ?

    It's never going to change, Blizzard would have to change the raid resets to the same day for every region for a global release, otherwise some region will always have less hours than the others due to raid reset days.

    Ask yourself this, is it worth it to a company to inconvenience hundreds of thousands of people to make less than 100 happy? We all know the answer to that question.

    Thanks for the link.
    It's more like one person's opinion here rather than "raiders."

    We know that global release would make this more interesting but it'll never happen (3 different regions).

    You really believe in jinxing?
    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    So they either start hours behind, or play with higher latency. How much of a handicap do you think NA players need? Especially if you now want to make the argument that an NA guild is "performing so well."

    you forget the fact that there are checkpoints.

    both teams finished re-clear at good hour in the day, at this point it is just whoever kills it first

    even if we dont consider re-clear a checkpoint, Limit had delayed start because of server maintenance, Echo did not and had extra hours the past week.

    also Limit faced a lot of bugs that delayed them, most of the times Echo arrived to bosses with most bugs fixed (speaking of generals)

    Limit haven't had a flawless run at that point with all 25 up and no deaths to massacre in p3 from the runs I've seen.

    That small margin error is what's blocking either guild.

    When Echo wiped at 13% it was an ugly error that caused a very fast wipe. They wrapped up quickly rather than push to enrage.
    Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.

    Even if they move to the US, we still have to consider CN, KR for the head start as well or it's not fair for everyone lol

    IF Limit with better gear isn't meeting the dps check, how would it be possible for Echo to down it with lesser gear?

    If Limit is 6% ahead at that point then Echo would have hit enrage around 4%

    Because Echo hasn't wiped at that point yet....they have wiped earlier.

    that is the tightest dps check i have ever seen, really good tuning from blizzard.

    Exactly I don't think echo has the dps to kill it unless they get crazy rng on crits

    You literally said that limit's cascading error is happening at the same point in the fight but it's around 7% for them and 13% for echo.

    Limit raided in BFA from London on US servers with no latency issues and were close to winning the race in question. Jeathe and Mini I believe raid in Echo from the US and seem to have no issues re latency. I may be wrong but don't Limit have EU players raiding with them this teir (Nowah did in bfa). If they want to go head to head their only option is US servers its really that simple in light of Blizzards reluctance to have a global release. Play from the EU on US servers issue fixed

    Assuming both guilds keep everyone up, they'll kill it just before or during enrage.
