Watching Blizzard: Happy… er… Monday?

I'm already getting reports that it is not, in fact, Monday. It just feels like Monday. A really long Monday. Anyway. Let's move beyond the weirdness of time and space to talk about what's been happening in the world of Blizzard.

I'm not crying, you're crying

• Or maybe we're both crying, because this Magni comic is so sad.

It's another exciting week of classic Overwatch brawls!

• Here's the week's schedule, featuring everyone's favorite: Junkenstein's Revenge.

Tank threat is changing... and not in a good way

• These upcoming threat changes are giving me Vanilla WoW flashbacks.
• And, yes, that editor's note is from me. How many cynical healers do you think we have on staff, anyway? (Okay, there is Matticus, but he seems strangely okay with healing Rogues who pull aggro. So weird.)

PVE is getting its own Seasons in Battle for Azeroth

• WoW PVP has had Seasons for a while — as have other Blizzard games, like Diablo, Heroes of the Storm, and Overwatch. In the expansion, Seasons will arrive in Mythic+, with seasonal affixes and special achievements. No word on rewards yet, though.

There's so much Battle for Azeroth to explore!

• Today, Anne has graced us with a new beta gallery highlighting Crosswind Commons and Mariner’s Row in Boralus.

Two notes for our supporters

• Even $5+ supporters are seeing ads in posts right now, and anyone who isn't ad-free is seeing oddly formatted or positioned ads. Adam is currently toying with site design and ad placement, and we should have it all straightened out soon. (I'm just getting weird blank spaces in posts, myself.) I really appreciate everyone's patience and ongoing support.
• Also, I feel like I harp on this point, but if you want a character profile from us, you just have to support us at $25+ for one month and we'll add you to the queue to write. (Just follow these instructions to submit your info.) I think Rossi has been writing some crazy good profiles, and we have another one that will be published tomorrow morning. (It's about a Warrior. Surprise!)

That's all for now. To everyone who was off yesterday, I hope you had a great holiday. And to everyone who wasn't off yesterday, I hope you had a survivable Monday. Until tomorrow, this is Liz, signing out.
