WOW PVP NEWS

Method Legion Invitational finished with NG Black winning overall

Season 1 has been open for two weeks - meta still being decided.  Where do DHs fit in?

EU R2Blizzcon regionals finished last weekend - quite the showing.  Lost some teams do visa issues.  Method held on even though they were short a teammate.  Winner was NG Blue (Minpojke, Whaaz and Zunniyaki).  Toxic Youth and Method will also be going to Blizzcon.

Patron of War title

More Hotfixes - weekly boxes were bugged for high rated players; should be fixed now.

LFR opened last week - not necessarily pvp, but gear is still gear.
