Blizzard has experimented with rare hunter pets in each expansion to some degree, but in Warlords a lot of those ideas seem to have been abandoned. There isn’t a single rare beast to tame in Draenor. Why?

Welcome to the 17th episode of Blizzard Watch's podcast!

In a little over a year, we're going to see a third iteration of Orgrim Doomhammer in the Warcraft movie. Maybe not exactly the orc we know from history, but another representation. Which leads most people to ask a natural question: Is Orgrim Doomhammer a good guy, or a bad guy? The most truthful answer I can give you is "Yes."

I spent the entire raid in churning agony as my intestines attempted to leap out of my body through any convenient orifice. To call it excruciating is to demean the experience, really. Hopefully I can get this Queue done before I’m consumed from the inside.

Is this the druidic version of a neckbeard? Is that ... Cheetos dust in the air? My God! All the stereotypes about gamers are coming true! Someone help -- I'm being teleported into my mom's basement!

With all the discussion and debate among the community about the removal of flight from future World of Warcraft content, it occurs to me that this also marks an opportunity for us to reflect on features that have been introduced to the game over the course of various expansions.

Now that the open beta for Heroes of the Storm is well underway, matchmaking is being flooded with new blood. While it is very exciting to see more people pick up the game, their lack of experience has ruffled some feathers among veteran players. But don’t worry - I’m here to help!

The most recent build to the World of Warcraft patch 6.2 PTR brings four new factions with a bunch of new faction rewards including pets, toys, a mount speed boost, new apexis gear and yes, a new fel raven flying mount.

Too often I find myself falling back to the same set of talents, even though "cookie cutter" builds are supposed to be a thing of the past. Am I doing something wrong, or could it be the talents that are at fault (or could it be both)?

We've talked a lot about food recently on BlizzCrafts, but amongst all of those tasty treats, we haven't seen much in the way of drinks.
