Question of the Week: TB Draft!

To decide draft order, we spun a wheel we made on WheelDecide.com

We drafted three lore characters for our dodgeball team!

Bent: Sylvanas Windrunner, Garrosh Hellscream, Shandris Feathermoon

Woolly: Tyrande Whisperwind, Illidan Stormrage, Azeroth the Titan

Gershom: The Jailer, Kael'thas Sunstrider, Orgrim Doomhammer 

Rules: (Bent, Woolly, Gershom)

1. Once a character is drafted, they are not an option anymore.

2. Variants of that character are NOT to be treated as another character (for example, alternate Draenor Velen vs Velen. Another example would be Arthas before he went bad vs Arthas after he went bad. If you pick Arthas, you're picking ALL of Arthas)

3. Draft order goes down and back. If the order is ABC, the first two rounds would follow as ABC,CBA rather than ABC,ABC

4. You have to explain why you're drafting who you're drafting.

Who won the draft, in your opinion? Hit the straw poll: https://strawpoll.com/4prgokrke

New question: You're the captain of the newest ship in the Alliance (or Horde's) Navy! What is your ship called?

Question of the Week

New question: You're putting together a 3-person dodgeball team. What lore characters would you put on your team and why?

We're going to answer that next week draft-style, wherein we cycle through a predetermined draft order picking our dodgeballers one NPC at a time and once someone takes one, it's off the table. For example, let's say Bent drafts first and he picks Mankrik for some reason. Gershom and I would NOT have the option of taking Mankrik.

Our lovely swingers don't have that restriction. Pick who you want!
