Pet-battles

One of my favorite pieces of game design in World of Warcraft is pet battles.

Since *checks clock* the other day, Jellycat has taken the internet by storm.

Update: Today -- June 17th -- is another Super Squirt Day for North America realms, so get out there and get that Safari Hat on!

I've said before that I think pet battles are the purest and best kind of mini-game content in World of Warcraft, and I have a variety of reasons for that belief.

Pet battling in the newly revamped Vale of Eternal Blossoms after patch 8.3 can be an easy way to gain yourself some rep and cool stuff depending on the daily as long as you know how to defeat your opponents.

The fight to save Azeroth from N'zoth is going to take everyone working together -- even our smallest companions.

Welcome to The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions on a varied array of topics, we give you answers, and then the comments devolve into zany shenanigans. Today we have a ton of pet battling questions, some lore stuff, and a side of esports. If there’s one word you can use to describe the Queue, “varied” is definitely a good one. I’m lying low after this one, though.

Welcome to The Queue, our daily question and answer article, where you ask the questions and we pretend like we know the answer, occasionally consulting Google as though its arcane tarot will help, when all is screaming from both the heights of heaven and the depths of hell.

Huh, it looks like I got some of Mitch’s questions mixed in here again. Let’s A some Qs!

I like building rep with all you Queuevians, but your mount drop rate stinks. I’m not even sure I’m going to get a toy or tabard or whatever out of all these answered questions. Well, another week, let’s try our luck.

It's been a while since we've discussed all the ways you change your World of Warcraft experience to make it more user friendly, more informational, or just more gosh dang pretty.
