The Bolvar is very much real.

Well yeah, but I meant more centered around him.

[Tartys]

Winter Is coming... Ops wrong franchise!

[ExiHext]

The Shadowlands banner with that white blueish artwork of a city that’s floating around in this thread.

Ah, the one I still claim fake. Thank you!

[SpicedCarp]

Looks like someone's testing the equipment.

This was the Chinese version of the stream, censored properly to ensure nothing bad slipped out.

Posting on the page equal to the hour and minute of my birth!

[FlubberPuddy]

I just checked this and the thumbnail is now blizzcon logo + generic light blue background. Another fuck up maybe?

Yeah mine is now showing just Blizzcon logo + blue background.

nice, thanks, its the hour im back from work

[Fahrad Wagner]

They would be as out of the loop with their judgement as all those redditors saying tay tay is "a forced meme" on the hype image

As I said: heathens.

Also that thumbnail is very suspicious.

Could anyone please send me a blank bingo card so I can have my Blizzcon bingo ready?

Hit up a coworker to ask what he saw during the cinematic. This cannot be confirmed. Coworker claims Sylvanas' ascent of Icecrown was filled with cuts and flashbacks. Sylvanas and Val'kyr attempt to steal the crown from Bolvar. Bolvar kills Val'kyr and wounds Sylvanas during battle. Guess Bolvar's eyes change in response to Sylvanas attempting to take the crown. Loose quotes: "The balance of life and death must be preserved." "There will be no bastion for you, Banshee. Damnation is all that awaits."

Take it with a grain of salt. He's not a big WoW player, and was busy as well. Mostly trying to piece together his story.

I'm just gonna go ahead and revive this now that we have that Icecrown background.

This doesn't look like anything in Northrend, does it?

[Kiivar86]

Yup that's some snowy cliffs right there. One might say they ring around like a crown. Of Ice, if you will.

I dunno, kinda brings to mind the area where Arthas raised that dragon in the cinematic, south of where the Argent Tournament ended up.

This is outside ICC?

It does sound like a plausible outcome. One of the most iconic cinematics made for WoW is the WotLK one, and that is directly paying homage to the cinematic at the end of WC3 TFT, which happens to look like what is described here.

We shall see. Would be awesome.

It's obviously Icecrown, what do you mean it doesn't? lol.

This is true

Looks like the shot of the mountain where Sindragosa dived down, imo, but that's just me.
