Countdown To Classic - A World Of Warcraft Classic Podcast

One of the more infamous WoW incidents occured since our last episode, and Countdown To Classic is there to break down all the angles of the hardcore dramedy that was 'The 5th Horseman'. Following that guests N_Tys, North, and Hunk take a look at the brand new ranking overhaul in Era, and then discuss random topics ranging from Blizzcon to the most satisfying abilities in Classic.Hardcore Drama - 3:00Era PvP Overhaul - 1:16:17Random Classic Chatter - 2:23:12Buy Josh a beer & help keep Countdown on the airwaves over at Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/joshcorbett Or if subscriptions aren't your thing, support Josh & Countdown by shouting him a one time beer here: https://ko-fi.com/countdowntoclassicFind N_Tys on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/N_Tys26Find North on Twitch here: https://www.twitch.tv/norththemageCheck out Josh on YouTube for gameplay and live podcast recordings here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4mTG9XXtKdOJW6tYg7jEkAJoin the Countdown To Classic discord here: https://discord

North, Hunk, Cleavis, Tokens, Warriors, SoM2, this episode has it all! The discussion surrounding the token warranted a bit more exploration and so here's another two hours on it on top of the two you got last week (*obsessed much?*). Listen in to the blossoming bromance that is North and Hunk (Horth? Nunk?) as the guys zero in on the token, what is pay to win in 2023 and the dream that is an instance-less BRD. After that, Cleavis joins the show to provide more dulcet tones from north of the border, chatting Blizzcon, the token, Wrath, the community council, and what could potentially be done, if anything, to Warriors in SoM2.

A bombshell has rocked the Classic community with the announcement that the WoW token has gone live on Wrath Classic.
