The Queue: Wearing Tyrael’s Hand-Me-Downs
by Matthew Rossi on May 20, 2026 at 1:00pm @MatthewWRossi
I am far from a good Diablo 4 player. If you want a talented player, Liz Patt has you covered. What I am is bizarrely and ridiculously tenacious. And, occasionally, I am lucky at the weirdest times. For example, I am wearing Tyrael’s Might, it’s updated for Lord of Hatred but it’s still a really great breastplate. I got it when I turned in my War Plan and Tyrael threw a bunch of loot at me, which included his breastplate.
The next Belial run I ended up on, the chest had El’druin, Sword of Justice in it. All I need are a pair of weird Angel tendrils and a hood and I’m basically cosplaying as the guy, and it’s making every time I turn in a War Plan kind of awkward.

The Queue: Splish Splash

We’re gearing up for summer, so it’s time to start getting the kids signed up for summer swim programs and the like. These tend to either be eye-wateringly expensive or relatively low-cost but run by volunteers. Surprise, the parents are the volunteers. So, me. It’s me. I’m the volunteer. So it is about to be a very splashy summer. Maybe send a rescue party? Preferably made of ducks?
This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where you ask us questions and we’ll give you the answers as soon as I find a towel.

The Queue: For the Queen!
by Cory Taylor on May 18, 2026 at 1:00pm @CoryjTaylor
Happy Victoria Day to my fellow Canucks, and only my fellow Canucks. Apparently, we’re the only ones who specifically celebrate Queen Victoria’s birthday. It doesn’t hurt that it lands on a good point to make the unofficial start of Summer, that’s totally just a coincidence. If you don’t have a queen to celebrate today, maybe you could celebrate Sarah Kerrigan, the Queen of Blades. She’s pretty cool and pointy!
Other good options are the Junker Queen, Queen Talanji, Queen Aszhara, Zagara the Zerg Queen, and the Amazon Queen from Skovos.
While I try to think of more Queens to celebrate in Blizzard games, it’s time for our daily question and answer column — The Queue!
