Watching Blizzard: Sleepy panda is sleepy (Patreon)

Welcome back, everyone! As a note, when you do not see this post, it is 100% because I have fallen asleep before I got around to writing it. But not tonight! Er... by which I mean not this morning. Because I am totally here and totally awake.

So let's get to the news.

Have you read Chronicle Volume 3 yet? 

• The latest volume of Warcraft game lore is here, and with it we have the retcons. The biggest is definitely Med'an, who has vanished from the game's story.
• Beyond that, there are a few omissions. Are they retcons or not? We just don't know. Anne talks about the things Chronicle fleshes out and the things it leaves out.

Anne's amazing adventures in Azeroth

• There's a lot of action in the Battle for Azeroth alpha. And Anne is touristing around the place for all of us. Check out her galleries of Stormsong Valley: see Mariner’s Strand and Mildenhall Meadery as well as Fogtide Assembly and Sagehold.

What the heck is Kaja'mite?

• I admit, I don't actually know. And I'm not sure anyone does, but Rossi makes an effort to explain.

What's Azshara's role in the expansion?

• Okay, I don't know the answer to this either. (Sorry, but my psychic powers aren't fully developed yet and I have no idea what Blizzard is up to here.) But some datamined broadcast text offers hints as to what might come.

These quest log changes in Battle for Azeroth aren't what we were hoping for

• I'm still hoping for an overhaul of the quest log, but there are some small improvements.

Overwatch League is back this week!

• Did I mention Overwatch League is back this week? Regular readers will know that my favorite underdogs, the Shanghai Dragons, will be kicking off the stage this Wednesday. Here's the schedule so you can start planning your watching party. (That is if you didn't already have one planned. Which you do, don't you?)
• But I digress, because there is some actual Overwatch news: the finals of each stage are adding one more team for a proper final four. Anna explains this better than I do, though, so go read her thoughts.

The Hearthstone card parade continues

• It is unstoppable and relentless and so far I think Priest is the only class to play in Witchwood.

And that's it, folks. Thank you and goodnight!  Er... good morning. This is Liz, signing out.
