Cutting Edge: A Warcraft Esports Podcast

Will we see a Sire Denathrius kill today? As of last night, Limit had fully recleared to Denathrius and progressed the boss to 16.2% health. We were able to see an interesting Mythic-only phase, and we found out that *before* their weekly reset with additional gear, Echo had progressed to 25% on Denathrius. During the show, Echo recleared up to Stone Legion Generals and we are less than an hour away from Limit and Echo going head-to-head on Denathrius attempts. You couldn't ask for a more exciting finish to this first tier of Shadowlands!

It's day 8 of Castle Nathria, which means the NA reset is upon us! Limit is expected to do a Mythic reclear and get right back on Denathrius progression, with Echo's and the EU reset not due until Wednesday. Things get a bit heated between Kexman, Missildine and Athalus as they discuss the implications of having a race with many unequal variables such as reset days and maintenance window lengths.
