Watching Blizzard: Incoming! (Patreon)

It’s Monday again, which means we have server downtime coming up tomorrow.

Er, wait, it’s not Monday? It’s Thursday? Are you sure? Well that’s odd, because the WoW servers are definitely going to be offline tomorrow for an unusual off-schedule maintenance. Patch 7.3.5 involved a pretty massive game rework to add level scaling to old zones and dungeons, and the end result is a patch with more bugs than usual. Bugs that apparently require some downtime to fix.

But while we all dread the servers going down at 7 a.m. PST, let’s catch up on today’s news.

Get your hotfixes while they’re hot!

• The first batch of 7.3.5 hotfixes disabled an entire Rogue trait due to a bug. What is this, Diablo 3? (Okay, okay, I’m kidding! Mostly!) Hopefully this will be fixed during Friday’s downtime.

And in non-bug news…

• Patch 7.3.5 made the S.E.L.F.I.E. camera even better.

Are you following the Hearthstone World Championships?

• Check out the decks everyone brought to the tournament… but be warned: a lot of them are pretty similar.
• Plus you can celebrate the tournament with free card packs just for logging on.

Orange you glad we don’t use this pun often?

• Thanks to Anna for using the most groanworthy headline of the year (so far) for last night’s Overwatch League recap post.

Changing how you get around in Overwatch
