Shadowlands -- Castle Nathria World First [Megathread]

[Kiaks]

I mean, it's the same a the US thinking that they won the WWII when it was the Russians

[Trabsder]

If Echo are so concerned about this global release stuff go to US servers otherwise put up and shut up.

[Xath]

Never said it was optimal, but saying EU players didn't have access is a lie. Or are you denying that simple fact?

Funny thing is limit had a main tank and a lock playing from eu think maybe a few others but not sure.

[Captain Proton]

And play with massive ping? Next you suggest to move to NA instead of having a global release, like everyone wanted for years.

Nope global release would be dope. I don't care either way, I don't follow the world first race at all, just find all the aftermath hilarious.

[Clozer]

right but then I can argue that EU had 6 extra hours the first week to practice donny, thats no muddier of water than talking about limits spending more time on bugged bosses

Quite sure Echo would have liked to progress bugged bosses instead of watching Limit steamrolling CN.

No comment...

10 hours, point still stands but get the number right. check shriekwing kills or when the actual servers came online

you seem to forget it is 16 hours every week. second reset matters more than first, so it is still 16 hours

[~Valen~]

Yes, that's the real solution, so they then face higher ping too. Got a better idea, why don't they relocate altogether?

You lot must be trolling.

[barackohmama]

Congratz Limit for winning the 'race' that you have started just 16 hours earlier than the rest of the competition. Amazing performance!

Someone is butthurt. Last raid they had like 2 days on Method

[Einsz]

So who's getting kicked from Echo?

[Roxinius]

boy echo fans looking like tito ortiz out here making all these excuses

[Barolt]

Yeah, playing at the highest level with worse ping. You are brilliant!

Limit literally did this like 3 tiers ago, bringing their raid group to London. And they said it wasn't that bad.

[Captain Proton]

No comment...

So you can't answer the simple question? Limit had EU players....

[OCoyne]

The time it takes for Echo to kill argument is a moot point now as they've ended raid for splits.

What's impressed me most is the amount of company sponsorship and viewer counts, there's quite a bit of money in World First races nowadays!

I do hope this makes Blizzard reconsider their 3 tiers per expansion policy, it's an opportunity to expand on this.

[Xath]

Probably second easiest end boss in recent memory

You are out of your mind sir. The lowish number of attempts was because the walls were late in the fight when usually they are early/mid so a lot of long attempts instead of tons of short ones. The tuning especially on phase3 though was crazy tight.

What excuseS? Even when EU always won, they already talked about the weekly reset. it didn't start in Nyalotha.

[Captain Proton]

You lot must be trolling.

Just stating the simple fact that EU players did have access, contrary to all the people crying about it.

[Shurkien]

I am a fan of how the race has been run since the beginning much like dnt didn't get to claim wf because of hotfixes being pushed for eu first on cthun echo doesn't get 16 hours to claim first on any already killed boss. It's done Limit won despite echo turning off streams while being able to observe them. Hopefully that's the last we see of streams getting turned off on finals boss.

We never had this exact situation. Limit will Start in about 9hours and im pretty confident that they kill it within 3 or 4 hours.
And only bc it was run since the beginning who says that this shouldnt be changed?
I know you are a diehard Limit Fan (as weve already seen in ny'alotha lol), but if you like sportmanship you should accept this discussion and be a serious part of it instead of 'lol no dont change plz'

How? I don't see the difference and new expansions shake things up if you're implying they should do more.

Definitely not crazy tight. Sludgefist was much tighter
