Apes world first.
"It's literally impossible to kill Rag the first week and your bugged private server experience is not relevant for REAL vanilla"
My bet was either apes or Olympus.
Dunno if they had strict priviledges on voice comms but they didn't sound excited at all. I guess I'd be dead too after doing something like that.
I bet there were a lot of people involved who didn't end up in that screenshot too.
Neat, the most impressive thing about this to me is managing to get that many people to nolife that hard.
they're not excited because most of these guys have been on the private server scene for 5+ years and have done this repetitively (Speed running) multiple times. This is nothing new to them. But still im happy to know us private server kids are holding the title of world first over methods head.

Does that matter? Like, I dunno. People are really wanting to dunk on Method and I don't understand why
Because its funny to shitpost on a "esport" team.
Method does it to everyone else. Now we get to do it to them. It's hunting season.

I'm not familiar with Method doing the shitposting, but if it encourages people to do it back then I guess kudos for them for tricking people into giving free promotion.

Why do you identify with "private server kids" as if you personally accomplished anything?
Because i've played with almost everyone in the guild Apes at one point in time. Been apart of the vanilla private server community for roughly 9 years and have been apart of many speed runs like this. They're reppin our banner.

Method came over from retail all cocky and indirectly saying (via their attitude and general cokcy-ness) that classic was easy and since they are a super duper retail mythic raiding guild, world first 60 and world first MC clear would be a sinch. While the wow community that cant stand retail keeps saying classic is not only better, its harder and will be more opopular, a lot of the current retail people say no way to both. This kinda just puts clout behind the vanilla-for-lifers that classic is harder/better, and you can't just roll over from retail in your spare time and expect to set the records.
I just enjoy dunking on retail esport guilds. I personally do not like the retail community. There's been times where they've witchhunted private server players to get them banned and spotlighted private servers to try and get them sued/removed. So I took pleasure when their "team" failed.

I dunno. I'm just not convinced they really "failed." They got loads of promotion, had some sponsorship deals, and yeah. Like yeah they didn't do it first, but that's just because other people leveled faster and it was pretty clear by day two that they weren't going to be able to keep up. Half the method players at the event just leveled pretty chill after the first day. I dunno. I just feel like there's a lot of unreasonable angst.

A couple things....
Nothing really concrete is said by anyone here. Just what "communities" say and that is entirely dependent on who you encounter and how many. None of that will ever be representative of a larger group.
Additionally, I don't know or care about the cockiness. But they're not wrong to think that MC is easy. I mean the guild who did get world first said as much, and said the only reason they got it was they new how to level faster. It's not like vanilla was too hard for Method. They just didn't know all the strats to level fastest. Big whoop. Like I just don't understand how people get so much joy from this. Like yeah, Method didn't level fast enough. Whatever. I saw the news, said "Oh, cool." and tabbed back into WoW.
