    Opposites like sylvanas and anduin i guess, but can't bet on that.

    Making this much fuss over a mobile game is weird.
    After the "do you not have phones" incident they should know better on how much time and how much hype to set for a mobile game.

    That's weird, I don't know why it wouldn't be the CE then. So another bundled mount + pet, but NOT part of the CE as it's not tied to the Stormrider?

    What are the implications of TWO wind-themed dynamic flying mounts coming out at the same time here?

    I think Rumble won't be part of the opening ceremony, and if it is it'll likely be shown off real quickly, maybe like half a minute of a trailer that then transitions into the more meaty Warcraft presentations.

    Let's hope they learned from the 1st of April Diablo Immortal, and just passes something real fast on Rumble

    I mean, it's possible they split up the keys a bit and they're all kind of related. Right now it seems to me that the pre-order mount (customizable, dynamic flight) is separate from "unknown mount A" (not customizable, also dynamic flight), but they might be closely tied together as well in a way that isn't obvious through the metadata.

    I guess the second mount could be the Nightmare Drake, as the Old Drake models could have dynamic flight by the time they release. But I don't know why the pet would be called Fyrn and have wind particles.

    Just watched talis vid and I like his interpretation of the things we know
    That the hidden continent is not reachable because there is a great monster massive storm between kalimdor and it
    And that we need the Wildhammer gryphon rider skills to cross it

    Also I guess we don't know the reason the tabards got hotfixed.

    They're likely used on the creatures from the same hotfix which at this point I expect to be for the Eastern Kingdoms cup which should be starting in ~4 hours on EU.

    I think Rumble will be bigger than Immortal. Rumble is trying to go after the clash royale market share. However, I agree the amount of people going to Blizzcon that want to hear about Rumble is slow. I do look forward to playing it while waiting in lines however.

    Yes, being a more casual game, i don't think that it'll need a whole section only for it on the main stage.

    Going over the front page, they essentially did the rumble announcement already

    They might actually just skip the infodump on it and limit its screentime to trailer and repeating the release date.

    We already knew there are storms to the west of Kalimdor and east of EK, preventing sailors from exploring it all.

    I took his video as mostly damage control, tbh. Because a few months ago he made a prediction video about the other side of Azeroth being full of new continents for us to explore, instead of a revamp. "Taliesin was right" seems to be an important meme to him, and so this video was to slightly adjust his prior prediction and make it fit with these new findings.

    Khaz Algar could be located west of Kalimdor, but he is trying to retrofit it into his original prediction.

    No harm in that though, we all do it.

    That's a brilliant idea. They learned much from the Immortal announcement.

    Everquest 2 just announced it's latest expansion today if you wanted to compare the expansion of a game with 10 million subs versus 5k subs.

    Well, looks like back to square one.

    Still wondering if it'll be an elemental expansion.

    Well it will be available for download - they are most likely going to try and get everyone at blizzcon(and watching) to download it. My guess they might do a promo beyond the pre-order one they are doing for first week of playing probably?

    I hope they start with it and quickly move on - I also fear they will take up panel time on rumble. I don't think they are going to turn it into an esport(god I hope they don't) so I don't think Rumble needs a panel beyond meet the artists hopefully. I want the max number of WoW Panels at Blizzcon.

    If that is the case - why so secretive? Rumble has been in Beta for months it's all over YouTube.
