On the Patch 9.2 Announcement
Come for the 9.2 Announcement analysis, stay for the Old God Hershey Kisses and Tauren Pedicures!...
Katie is back and Nick is here and the pair are ready to talk about lore! First, they get off on a tangent about Hearthstone Mercenaries and talk about how Katie can’t play card games. Then Katie talks about her struggles getting the Headless Horseman mount again this year, and talks about how her alts still have all their currency and items from Hallow’s End last year.
They begin talking about Elune, and how she admits to her sister that she tried to send the souls to Ardenweald and didn’t know about the souls being rerouted to the Maw. Nick mentions that this shows that Elune is not omniscient and some people were upset because she should be. Nick makes an extended lemonade metaphor. Then he goes into his theory that Elune is the agent sent from Revendreth by Denathrius and she has usurped power in the realm of Life. They speculate on the relationship between LIght and Life magic and try to figure out where Elune fits between the two.
They talk about the origins of the Eternal Ones, and try to figure out the order they would have been born in, if they were born. Nick wonders if they are Eternal like the characters in the Sandman who still have a birth order and can die, yet are always around. They try to consider the origins of the Universe and how the Eternal Ones and Titans could have fit into that. They also wonder if Elune is the Moon, could she be like a Titan and could a smaller moon still house such a being?

Host of WoW! Talk! and The Tauren & The Goblin. Sometimes known as the Video Games Public Defender. Wants to play more Destiny and Marvel Heroes but WoW is all-consuming. Decent F2P Hearthstone player. Sad that he lost the Wii that had Wrecking Crew on it. Would be happy if the only game ever made was M.U.L.E. Gragtharr on Skywall-US. Garresque on Ravencrest-US.
Katie is a long time gamer who has fallen in love with multiple genres. She started young by playing Nintendo 64, Spyro, and Blizzard games such as Warcraft II with family, then eventually moved into playing games in both my leisure time and as a occupation. She loves being immersed in different universes and exploring the characters that live in them, as well as just playing games for a good time.
Exciting crossovers in fighting games, celebrating Street Fighter 6's milestones, Capcom Fighting Collection 2, and speculating on the potential for a new Capcom vs SNK game.
We're back and chatting about the 7.1 live letter and all the content announcements therein.
We review Jason Schreier's Play Nice. Yeah, there's a ton of stuff about Blizzard in there! Go check it out!
