I'm curious about why tho. It's not like sports where you become too old to play. A 20 year old should have no edge over a 40 or 50 year old. Do they move on to other positions because they pay better?
Awesome battles, these KIDS are really good at least at something =) Lets see them in 20 yrs will they still be playing? I'm 61 and still play lol great show Blizz. well done~gogo NA =)
Wow, you remember the old days very well. I started playing WoW before BC came out and turned 60 exactly the day BC was released (never play on patch day was so true at that time). I'd look forward to visiting some of the old landscapes - thousand needles would probably make me replay some of Vanilla. And I love your rose-tinted glasses - perfect for travelling back in time.
I was watching “Conan plays Wow at E3 2013” and he did a WOW Championship skit and I wondered *do they actually have Wow events?* and then I found this and I love it.
Niksi get the mvp imo, he basicly won 3 of the games on his own! So many double stuns, so many on point ccs and burst phases! Alec only lived because of Niksis beyond god like timing! Although well played by all 3 so deserved!
How much control do these people have on their characters, like their gear and stuff? Do they all have standard blank slate characters or are they playing their own personal toons?
lel ur serious? that shammy rubcub is making so many rookie mistakes, how can u say he is good? That is the worst perfomance of a shaman i have ever seen on such a stage.
I'm still scratching my head as to how Rubcub was in the finals. All I can say is a complete carry by Rosita and Jelly. As far as the elite players go, Rubcub is most definitely the worst Shaman out there.
Sorry I haven't played WoW for a very long time, but I can tell you the Resto Druid's mana management is still IMBA compared to the one of the Resto Shaman... that is just not fair... btw they should have shown the damage output/ heal statistics after each match...
Druids are very mana efficient but at a price.You catch them in human form they are super squishy.So yes whilst they are strong in one area they are weak in another.
personally, i think panda global is focusing on the wrong guy. A very capable mage like Alec, not to mention that this is a very mobile class, is difficult to pin down. They should've switched to Niksi. I saw him down to 40% hp one time but they kept on Alec even when he got healed back up again. Plus Method showed that in their own matches with ABC
Jellybeans seems to be missing a pet and I'm not sure to what race he choose because if he's a kaldorei they get a white tiger similar to the 2018 Olympic Games mascot undead black widow spider human direwolf
Rosita doesn't use blur once, and the move where they fly in the air. He didn't pop his defencives very well and is the reason they fall, when they bring in wallabare they last much longer bc he actual was popping his defencives
I didn't even know what region either team was from until I scrolled down to the comments and found a ton of auto-fellatio going on. Then it made sense. I'm still glad ABC won. They looked like cool dudes.
Right, I thought I looked up NA championship tbh? Im still scrolling down in search of where these EU guys are finding "salty American" comments. But ive found a dozen "EU>NA" in search of. Nonetheless, ABC played brilliantly, im not a fan of the PG team at all, and EU deserved more applause. Edit: I scrolled through every comment, and found no US players that are mad about this loss.
crashyburny MIT that's one way to put it. The hunter would have to anticipate being 100-0 in literally 1 sec and proceed to blow half his CDs. Great gameplay imo. Still got outplayed but the damage is a joke.
the hunter trinketed to use self heal, and then he was on global for turtle i guess (is self heal on global cd? not sure now) and got stunned again. i guess he thought he would be fine with self heal, but dmg was just too high. he should have just used turtle. they might could have won then, because priest lacks a lot of healing when running dark archangel and is easier to cc. if they went all in with purges, i think alec could have died pretty fast. they just needed to survive that initial assault, because abc popped everything
PG played pretty weak in the finals. Jelly was always so close to their other dmg dealer that ABCs monk could always get double leg sweeps and fist stuns on them
Am I the only one that feels like Panda Global ruined blizzcon finals? Triforce and ABC would of been a way better match up than PG's "all in" playing style.
yea panda global wasnt good, no american team was good. They could only play 1 minute games and purge vs druids. sadly rockets and triforce didnt change to right comps to counter.
i also didnt play wow for a long time, but i can tell that Arcane mage offensive skill mostly instant cast or channeling like Arcane Missiles. Correct me if i'm wrong ^^
The arena system was released in the TBC-prepatch, so technically he is right. Prepatches will never be the same as the original expansion, at least in my opinion. Maybe you want to give other opinions a chance before you call people retarded or dum(b)ass? @SuperPostmayhem
Really SuperPostmayhem? Then I'm afraid you misunderstood. The argument is that there wasn't any arenas in vanilla (classic) wow, they were released in in the prepatch which shouldn't be counted as a part of the original version of (classic) wow. If you still think arenas were a part of vanilla/classic wow, then please explain, I'm listening ;)
SuperPostmayhem Fair enough, you did at least admit you were wrong with the lack of your response. Apparently I'm the idiot, so I guess there isn't any point answering me anyway.
Rubcub did phenomenal with no mana for so long. When Jelly got 1 shot Rubcub could've trinket'd the poly and probably saved him but they were caught off guard. Walla played as best he could. Arcane mage is almost impossible to keep up with unless you're a DH or a really good WW.
engraçado que a blizz tira a barragem do hunter MM e deixa o mage arcano com um burst desse ! triste mas a Blizz só puxa para outros dps, mas para hunter MM sempre acaba com a classe ! ¬¬'
Ahhhh anything WoW gives me good chills!! 10yrs and I still love the excitement this game gives me
your looks give me a lot of excitement aswell ;)
Norbertas Kaziukaitis I don't think he appreciates that.
All the people I use to watch are now announcers makes me feel old
I know man!!! I said the same thing to my gf this year...I remember watching all these guys when they were playing in the finals lol.
Same. I'm all washed up.
It's so surreal to see how much this game has grown and it is going to be even more so apparent when vanilla comes out for people to enjoy again.
I'm curious about why tho. It's not like sports where you become too old to play. A 20 year old should have no edge over a 40 or 50 year old. Do they move on to other positions because they pay better?
@@moosa1037 reaction speed and cognitive processing slows down with age but I am unaware of the reasons they stopped competing XD
4:05 start of the first match, 18:45 2nd match
Alec with that Mage beast mode
thank you sir
"They're reacting to it re-actively" Someone give this announcer an award.
Awesome battles, these KIDS are really good at least at something =) Lets see them in 20 yrs will they still be playing? I'm 61 and still play lol great show Blizz. well done~gogo NA =)
61 and still playing games? U live my future life man
Do you play League of Legends or WOW
Wow, you remember the old days very well.
I started playing WoW before BC came out and turned 60 exactly the day BC was released (never play on patch day was so true at that time).
I'd look forward to visiting some of the old landscapes - thousand needles would probably make me replay some of Vanilla.
And I love your rose-tinted glasses - perfect for travelling back in time.
who are you talking to dude
I was watching “Conan plays Wow at E3 2013” and he did a WOW Championship skit and I wondered *do they actually have Wow events?* and then I found this and I love it.
Monks are mostly cc, and in this case a good support/set up for arcane mage. The damage is good as well..
I love that the one who did nothing in 4 games cried at the end
Haha, his hard moral support brought a victory.
World of Warcraft your the best game
Is there an addon for those health bars, or is IT just for the tournament?:)
Niksi get the mvp imo, he basicly won 3 of the games on his own! So many double stuns, so many on point ccs and burst phases! Alec only lived because of Niksis beyond god like timing! Although well played by all 3 so deserved!
Niski is op.
This was completely ruined for me because i watched it in the wrong order, why was the first video posted the final.
I did the same :P
Because this is blizzard, not riot.
How much control do these people have on their characters, like their gear and stuff? Do they all have standard blank slate characters or are they playing their own personal toons?
My dream is to see Retribution Paladin in final World Champioship... But we haven't mobility...
That was a great match. Both sides should be proud... Both skilled, congrats to all :)
yo ziqo is on the caster table? no way
Why are they not playing with mics cant hear what the players are doing
Can someone explain to me why Panada went with Jungle Cleave in the end?
Can't wait for WoW's new expantion😍
Ary Madsyk Castillo me 2!!!
me 3!!
Me 5
That shaman is insane lol. He literally had no mana left but still managed to keep them alive....
lel ur serious? that shammy rubcub is making so many rookie mistakes, how can u say he is good? That is the worst perfomance of a shaman i have ever seen on such a stage.
I can't believe it's an actual Wow channel and the video quality is stuck to 720P, is this game stuck in 2004 ? Come on...
Dont remember mana being such an issue that early in a fight before. Did blizz changed something?
50:35 song name?
Can someone please inform what game client are they competing for Blizzcon? 7.2 or 7.3? Thanks a lot..
29:38 Shows the actual state of the game...
How much does the winning team get..?
I mean, i dont know if you guys noticed it, but Ziqo ''Black Lizard'' was ON POINT for every match outcome with his predictions. MAD PROPS BRO !
except for the call before the 4th match where zigo said PG would score at least 1 win
Which chair are they using?
Why you download final first?
WTF...
Hey Everybody
MoP arena looks way more fun..still gg
That 3rd round ABC took it flawlessly
So clenched!!
wouldnt a feral be very strong in 3v3? 3 targets to bleed on or affliction warlock or shadowpriest
Somebody tell Rubcub that being rude won't get him anywhere (clearly not to winning Blizzcon).
what did he do?
He ostentatiously made obscene gestures towards a European team he defeated in a previous stage.
Tbf, i'd be pretty bitter if i woke up looking like that every morning. What a fat lump of lard.
Worst grand final ever seen
I'm still scratching my head as to how Rubcub was in the finals. All I can say is a complete carry by Rosita and Jelly. As far as the elite players go, Rubcub is most definitely the worst Shaman out there.
why isnt warcraft jen up there?
Sorry I haven't played WoW for a very long time, but I can tell you the Resto Druid's mana management is still IMBA compared to the one of the Resto Shaman... that is just not fair... btw they should have shown the damage output/ heal statistics after each match...
Béla Németh aggresive purges is what drained so much of shaman's mana. It's how he chose to play it.
Druids are very mana efficient but at a price.You catch them in human form they are super squishy.So yes whilst they are strong in one area they are weak in another.
Wait! Since when does WoW have an esports scene?
What Class Cara plays?
Q hace la cuarta persona en el grupo??
What does ABC stand for? Is it an acronym or just generic name?
personally, i think panda global is focusing on the wrong guy. A very capable mage like Alec, not to mention that this is a very mobile class, is difficult to pin down. They should've switched to Niksi. I saw him down to 40% hp one time but they kept on Alec even when he got healed back up again. Plus Method showed that in their own matches with ABC
Bahjeera has been born to be a show man!
The mage & Druid healer made everything at ABC team... at least for the first 2 games
How much was the prize money though
Winner team got 120k USD, 2nd place got 50k USD, 3rd - 4th place got 25k USD, 5th - 6th place got 15k USD and 7th - 12th place got 5k USD.
If you look closely at 29:40 you can see Jellybean using trinket when he wasn't affected by stun. Such a huge misplay there.
The team favored to win clean swept? Oh wow, so epic.
Pre pet sacs at 100% health gets exhil between fist and legsweep died in less then 8sec makes no sense
Jellybeans seems to be missing a pet and I'm not sure to what race he choose because if he's a kaldorei they get a white tiger similar to the 2018 Olympic Games mascot undead black widow spider human direwolf
didn't ABC lose to Method Triforce ??
Wheres overwatch, hearthstone, s2, hos?
Game 1....DH is extremely suseptible to rooting , thus giving more time for polys
Why does Niksi look like Gennady Golovkin?
This is the best Arena game ever
Any money won?
Rosita doesn't use blur once, and the move where they fly in the air. He didn't pop his defencives very well and is the reason they fall, when they bring in wallabare they last much longer bc he actual was popping his defencives
Bajheera is a beast on stage! great host!! And GZ to ABC!!!
Remember when they said 99.9% chance of method vs method
These guys make me never want to even attempt pvp ever again, lol
Bajheera should have worn a t-shirt to flex them guns
I didn't even know what region either team was from until I scrolled down to the comments and found a ton of auto-fellatio going on. Then it made sense.
I'm still glad ABC won. They looked like cool dudes.

Enjoying Legion Boys?!?! Those skillful 2 millisecond kills dough...
Nattysaurus Flex they were caught unprepaired, and paid for it.

So what? I was oneshooting people as DK in Wotlk. This game didnt changed, only idiots got more idiotish.
So, it's whoever gets the first kill? Not a fan.
PG played pretty weak in the finals. Jelly was always so close to their other dmg dealer that ABCs monk could always get double leg sweeps and fist stuns on them
Never seeing a WoW turny before, I was 100% sure EU would win lol
Were panda even trying? How do you get rekt so hard when you're supposed "finalists" lmao.
Am I the only one that feels like Panda Global ruined blizzcon finals? Triforce and ABC would of been a way better match up than PG's "all in" playing style.
yea panda global wasnt good, no american team was good. They could only play 1 minute games and purge vs druids. sadly rockets and triforce didnt change to right comps to counter.
It's wow legion, you shouldn't care. Quick and lame or dampening and lame, pick your poison.
1L1ght NA lul
Eu is better than Na
+Joshua V EU and NA are continents, idk what you're talking about.
Ikr
Joshua V that doesn't make it true lmao NA = North America. You can't argue against facts
Great games, great players (as long as Rubcub cant point his annoying fat finger at the other team on a win).
Wow is the best game ever👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Daisyduke von aegwynn war schon immer der beste Mage (Alec) GW ! Verdient
No idea what just happened. I can't wait for Classic rival and log out in Ogrimmar. Ironforge, and 1 shot nubs. . . i know how that works.
eu > na
WTF IS THAT... i mean i didnt play wow for a long time but the mage is not casting except polymorph??? that looks so wierd
i also didnt play wow for a long time, but i can tell that Arcane mage offensive skill mostly instant cast or channeling like Arcane Missiles. Correct me if i'm wrong ^^
They use instant Arcane Explosion to build charges for that missile setup, since getting interrupted is VERY punishing for an arcane mage.
I will be thrilled for the Classic arenas
Swaggs Mr. There weren't any arenas in vanilla wow
The arena system was released in the TBC-prepatch, so technically he is right. Prepatches will never be the same as the original expansion, at least in my opinion. Maybe you want to give other opinions a chance before you call people retarded or dum(b)ass? @SuperPostmayhem

Håkon Sandmo Hannevig no ur a idot
4-0? CmonBruh
If swifty didn't go crazy he would be the host
I nearly put money on Method to win. They always do so well. GG to ABC!
Best comp maybe.
Alec's kiting isn't insane. It's broken
Wow wallabare is bearly hanging on
Wish this was mythic +
i cant even tell whats going on anymore lol
jesus christ jellybeans used Trinket while he was NOT in stun 29:40 what a mistake.
rubcub over does his win reactions. Thus, I'm glad he lost lol.
29:41 Jellybeans fail trinketed nothing and the 1500 announcers didn't notice...
Why wasn't Ziqo commentating mid game?
dude he didnt expect to go from 100-20% hp in just a fist stun, I wouldve reacted the same way, ziqo wouldve too
You dont f with EU :D
12:30 freaked out at that moment already
Rubcub did phenomenal with no mana for so long. When Jelly got 1 shot Rubcub could've trinket'd the poly and probably saved him but they were caught off guard. Walla played as best he could. Arcane mage is almost impossible to keep up with unless you're a DH or a really good WW.
FIRST BEST THING EVER I LOVE WORLD OF WARCRAFT XD!!!!!
nice speaker...
the americans boo'ing at the end of game4 is just sweet tears, get rekt noobs
Tosheto666 nobody was booing
engraçado que a blizz tira a barragem do hunter MM e deixa o mage arcano com um burst desse ! triste mas a Blizz só puxa para outros dps, mas para hunter MM sempre acaba com a classe ! ¬¬'
Jeff
Good for u abc
Wow
Rubnub reminds me of the angry german kid. gg yurop!
Hey that's my name
So intense. I think mages have way too much mobility.
