    other disappointed race for Method sadly. Gotta give Sco a lot of cred for keep trying tho even tho most of his main raiders just leave him behind like untrustworthy little snakes in the grass.

    Impressed by Pieces' comeback on Sylvanas, having been behind BDGG and Method earlier.

    It's definitely not luck that gets them talented players, if so they wouldn't have been able to acquire enough raiders to compete and be a probably top 5 guild for the second? or third? time of having to basically replace most of a raid.

    They were not even close to a kill before reset afaik. Amazing job on 3rd though.

    The gap between Echo+Limit and the rest is just too huge. I hope it changes.

    Method also did it

    Apparently it’s the first time they saw the last platform according to Sco who didn’t expect the kill to happen at all.

    What occurs during their interviews? That's actually pretty cool because everybody moves at their own pace. I hope they start to emphasize it due to the amount of people they're influencig. As well as esports being something that isn't totally marketable when this specific market tanks.

    How about that Race to World First Alliance Race?

    can COPIUM of Frostmourne-OC manage to beat out the rest on Painsmith?
    We're all newbs, some are just more newbier than others.

    Just a burned out hardcore raider turned casual.
    I'm tired. So very tired. Can I just lay my head on your lap and fall asleep?

    Did anyone get a hold of what mice Echo and Limit use? I mean literal computer mice. I wonder what the best players use these years.

    Method came in the same place as last tier but their performance in general was much better than in Nathria.

    Hopefully, Pieces and BDGG can close the gap for next tier to give us an open race at the top.

  13. #2993
    This was the first interesting race in years, hopefully the top 3-5 can step up their game and make it even more interesting next tier

    It’s kinda too bad that “stepping it up” basically means “no-lifing it harder.”

    A network of fans feeding 239 BoEs
    A network of capable raiders ready to step in with ideal covenants, specs, and legendaries
    A network of real-life software engineers to design weak auras and addons for support

    Sure they’re skilled…but logistics are a thing too
    Raid bosses will always be very similar so long as encounter design requires DPS to always be pumping 100%.

    Hmmm, its not like 90% of people from Method moved to Echo, right?

    I agree in your hopeful outlook, although it will take a lot for any of these guilds (besides perhaps Method) to leap into the modern requirements to contend for world first:
    -partnership with a boss mod developer
    -21st raider with low latency screen view (LAN environment preferred)
    -finance hundreds of millions of gold
    -community support for gear splits

    Whoever was apart of method during the allegations, even the first, and refused to speak up are victim blaming , sexual assault, sexual harassment, domestic violence, and pedophilia apologists which reflects the overall culture of the WoW raiding community.

    Why are there no women or minority raid/guild leaders at the high end?

    Does it matter to you?

    Because 99%+ of the raiders are neither thus even statistically it's not likely we would have one.
    You people always manage to look away from the real reason.

    There are real cases of discrimination but not having a woman/minority raid leader in top end guilds is not one. Focus your energy somewhere with actual problems.

    Ah yes what a powerful statement. Do you want to apply certain %s in guilds that have to be filled by women and POCs like in universities in order to promote diversity? This is supposed to be an organic game.
