Jaina

I think my favorite moment so far from the pre-expansion is Jaina riding in on a huge boat and just wrecking everything with giant ice explosions and purple zappy cannons.

We promise these jokes are hilarious, but this post contains major spoilers for this week's Battle for Lordaeron event.

Hearthstone's Boomsday Project expansion has come out, so you might have already seen the card shown in this video reveal.

The World of Warcraft short Warbringers: Jaina came out just a week ago, but already it's my favorite lead-in content for an expansion, since ever.

Anduin Wrynn is a far cry from his father, Varian.

Hello.

One of the things we say a lot is "in beta, everything is subject to change" and that's because this happens every beta.

Disclaimer: This is not your typical Blizzard Watch content, nor will it become so.

So I recently leveled my 10th level 100 thanks to invasions (five Warriors – Human, Worgen, two Draenei and a Night Elf plus two Demon Hunters, a Hunter, a Shaman and a Paladin) and when I got the most recent Warrior to Stormwind I found myself constructing a story for her in my head. She’s a Night Elf, a traditionalist who thinks a man’s place is sleeping in a barrow den somewhere talking to trees. She absolutely thinks she should be running the whole war against the Legion and she’s not very deferential to her people’s ‘leaders’ at all.

So during the scene in the throne room she was pretty much all you know, Jaina’s got a lot of good arguments. If Jaina starts her own faction, I think she’d be down for a gig as Jaina’s new Night Elf bodyguard.

Yeah, it didn’t work out great for the last one, but that sort of proves her point.

This is the Queue. Let’s chat.

You want a Queue that’s excited about Karazhan? Yesterday’s Queue is for you. But I’m afraid I’m just not all that excited about it.

Look, I ran that raid over and over and over again for the entirety of TBC. I ran it when it was the guild-killer. I ran it when they introduced Badges to raids and it was the most efficient way to gear up your newest raid members. I ran it when people wanted the mount. I ran it and I ran it and now? Now I just don’t care.

Sorry. I know y’all love Karazhan. I don’t want to take that away from you. It’s a very pretty raid from an art and music perspective.
