Phil Xavier

Phil Xavier @harmonicstrike — Phil Xavier, also known as Red, began his Blizzard adventure many years ago, with such titles as Rock N' Roll Racing and Blackthorne -- but it was the one-two punch of Warcraft II and Diablo that really took hold of his nerdy heart. He is also deeply interested in other games, especially for the Switch (but without ignoring the PC and PS4), and in discussions about game design (and game-making) in general. There is a place called rcnsk.com where he writes stuff unrelated to Blizzard Watch, but the truth is that there's nothing really in there yet.


The Queue: Starseeker

I like the Starseeker sisters, Aranna the Demon Hunter and Elise the Druid, a lot. We’ve already gotten several cameos by the elder sister in WoW — she’s even in the Delves area in Dornogal right now, as part of the Explorer’s League — but we’ve yet to see Aranna, the younger sister (who really resents Elise’s fame and success) make her WoW debut.

Given how many Hearthstone references WoW is getting lately — Babbling Book! Corridor Creeper! and more — I really hope Aranna shows up eventually to stir up some drama with the Explorer’s League, and Elise in particular.

Now, with or without extra Starseeker presence in our lives, let’s Queue, ladies and gentlemen!


The Queue: The War Within is almost here edition

There’s a lot going on in the gaming world. ReMists just ended, a new Hearthstone Battlegrounds season just began, there’s a new Diablo 4 season underway, and we also have Gamescom to keep up with. Whew! But despite all of that, I can feel the excitement in the community regarding the proximity to The War Within. And the questions today completely reflect that.

It’s a good time to be a gamer, so let’s not waste much more time; it’s time to Queue.
