Blizzcon 2014 Opening Ceremony Announcements
Since my Virtual Ticket is shitting the bed (or, more accurately, my iPhone) I’m relying on Twitter to update me.
So far:
– Mike Morehaime addressed GamerGate and tells the players to take back the community with understanding and tolerance.
– Heroes of the Storm will have a closed beta January 13th. It will include Thrall, Jaina, Karina, and the Lost Vikings.
– Hearthstone will have a new engineering expansion – Goblins vs Gnomes – which will launch next month!
– Starcraft will have a new addition to the family: Legacy of the Void. It will be a standalone game, no previous expansion required.
– Blizzard announced Overwatch, their new IP. Team based shooter.
So far, so crazy! Blizzcon 2014!!
Darkmoon Faire Blazing Wings
Benson Henderson = MMA ass-kicker of Alysrazor
I don’t know exactly when it happened, but at some point I noticed everyone was walking around with a pair of flaming wings sticking out of their back. I wrote it off as a Halloween thing. Turns out it was more like a Darkmoon Faire thing – a vanity tramp stamp reward for the Brood of Alysrazor achievement. To pull it off, you have to fly through fifty burning rings and you earn your flaming wings.
I usually do the opposite – I go through 50 flaming wings and get one burning ring.
There are maps that show the best route to snag your fifty rings. But as Bajheera shows in his video, patience and persistence will also get your the new hot toy.
Hot toy… get it? Because it ends up in your Toy Box, and it’s a set of Blazing Wings. Damn I’m clever.
