A true Master baiter.

In seriousness, The Bolvar pic is probably real considering how they share an expansion title.

[Kuroi Inu]

Definitely not. I've clicked that too many times at this point lol.

bit.ly never works. Everyone knows your hiding something

Regarding ESPN. Don't news sites usually get advance info so they are ready to go when there is an actual announcement but there is an embargo on release until then?

Wouldn't this cause issues for ESPN with ActiBlizz by releasing before an official announcement.

Someone did an overlay, Bolvar is just an edited Sion

If all of this turns out to be real or at least the OW2 bit I think it may be a controlled leak. If not and it's real yeah they may be in a bit of trouble. Not our problem though.

I absolutely love how "Wrath of The Bolvar" turned into a meme

I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard eventually adds a race of burning people called The Bolvar :P Or an NPC with the title "Last of the Bolvar" :P

I think its in Blizzard's MO to drum up hype before BlizzCon to sell more virtual ticket$

I'm assuming Blizzard is letting people confirm stuff now that it got leaked.

That or they can't do shit because it's the weekend.

[Atticon]

We need to bring the Bolvar holding things meme back.

I would be careful saying that, said logic can also be applied to the (arguably way less effort than faking a cinematic) textual Shadowlands leaks.

If they acquired the demo guide indepedently from what was embargoed and didn't mention any other information that wasn't in the guide, it is probably fine.

Yeah Blizzard wouldn't want give early access to ESPN now. Just like when Bethseda stop giving Kotaku early access to their games after Fallout 4 was leaked.

Former denizens from Drustvar, the Bolvar found strength and fortitude by embracing their boldness.

[TriHard]

So, 2/3 WA leaks confirmed. This is most likely legit now

But that was not a part of the initial leak though

[Deventh]

thank god is a fake, another edgy elf class would be much crap

Whether you like it or not you can't deny that it would sell like a hot bread. And honestly we are due to have another ranged class, so it's either that or Necromancer and both are edgy. I think having pure ranger class is preferred at this point.

There are a lot of bogus leaks with the name, but the ad and The Bolvar came out in the same 5 hours or so I think.

It was leaked with the real OW2 and D4 stuff. The Bolvar is separate.
