Just under 3 hours to go until #BattleForAzeroth - I couldn't be more proud of the team's efforts in crafting this grand adventure, or more excited for the world to experience it. Whether you do it #ForTheHorde, #ForTheAlliance, or #ForAzeroth, Kul Tiras and Zandalar await!

Excited and humbled at the chance to do this. One note: the theme of PAX keynotes is a dev’s personal story about their industry journey, so if you were hoping for WoW announcements, apologies in advance!

Congrats to @Methodgg on an amazing run through Uldir - awesome to watch it all unfold along with the rest of the world. Kudos also to @limitguild for making this the most hotly-contended raid progression race that I can recall in a long, long, time.

The first spot in the Uldir Hall of Fame has been claimed: worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/game/lea… - who will be next? (Reminder that cross-server Mythic unlocks when those are both full!)

Watching the first folks to jump in and experience 2004’s hottest new MMO (and promptly start looking for the “Instant Quest Text” interface option). It’s going to be a great #BlizzCon2018

Lots of questions swirling over the weekend, so here's a cheat sheet for what is and isn't changing next week in BfA Season 2: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/whats… (We'll get it up on other regions' forums ASAP - I ran into some errors when trying to post on EU.)

This is going to be an exciting week: worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/233… This was originally planned to be a video. And to come just a bit sooner. But from our (literal) homes to yours, the WoW team couldn't be more excited to pull back the curtain on what we've been up to since BlizzCon.

Congrats @LimitGuild on another fantastic performance! Extra impressive watching all the slight tactical refinements and composure even with very strong competition getting close to a kill too. A rough couple of days for Larries everywhere. Enjoy some well-deserved holiday rest!

Congrats Echo on world-first Sylvanas! Alas I had to sleep before that flawless finish, but it was obvious from the DPS on those initial tries today that it was imminent. Amazing week watching you and @LimitGuild push each other to new heights-enjoy some well-deserved rest!

@Jian45868563 Great question. We're working on assembling some info and discussion of legendaries and future plans there - stay tuned!

In light of today's events, I just want to call attention to Paul's answer to the final question in this interview: venturebeat.com/2017/06/13/how…

6 mins until the gamescom stream at twitch.tv/blizzard ! I'll be discussing 7.3 (yes, and only 7.3), and many amazing videos await you.

Cheers to everyone I met, apologies to those I missed, but most of all thank you to everyone for an unforgettable BlizzCon. #Blizzcon2017
