Magic: the Gathering Arena (or MTGA for short) and on the 27th of September everyone will be given the chance to play.

The Spawning Pool Party
Two weeks ago, I ventured into the world Starcraft 2. As you guys remember from my previous article, I never really had a good relationship with the franchise, but after spending a little time playing every day, even if they were only AI games for practice, I discovered my addiction to It. I had to move forward, to forget the Hatchery... Continue Reading →
The current problems with Heroes of the Storm
Heroes of the Storm (HotS) for short, has always been a fun game that my friends and I have managed to enjoy from time to time since its release, the idea of running around as a character from one of Blizzards various franchises has always been entertaining. The game was designed with the intention to... Continue Reading →
Starcraft 2 – Hell, it was about damn time
My story with the Starcraft universe is a long one and not so positive. As a former Warcraft 2 and 3 player, when I first encountered the Starcraft franchise all I thought to myself was: oh god this is so different, so fast paced and with too much going on.

“Shooting Star” is a step up from the rest
The new Overwatch animated short ‘Shooting Star’ was released recently, and it was amazing.

Why the Battle for Lordaeron was awesome
On the 8th of August we finally got to play through the Battle for Azeroth scenario (Or the 7th, for those lucky Americans) and it was filled to the brim with awesome moments. The scenario was the epic finale, the culmination of Blizzards new way to tell the story for World of Warcraft. The multi-media storytelling... Continue Reading →
Let’s talk about Jaina Proudmoore.
On May 22 2018, Blizzard Entertainment gifted us with a beautiful comic about Jaina Proudmoore and again with the new series Warbringers: Blizzard brought me to tears with such a beautiful song, telling a deep and meaningful story…. And I have to say, all of this feels weird and uncomfortable to say, because I was... Continue Reading →
Unpacking the ‘Old Soldier’ Cinematic and Blizzard’s Storytelling.
Blizzard released the cinematic ‘Old soldier’ today, and my oh my is there a lot to unravel. It’s the first time Blizzard has really had a character-driven cinematic like this, focusing entirely on Varok Saurfang’s character development. And beyond that, its simply gorgeous visually. I particularly enjoyed the one frame in which Sylvanas is looking... Continue Reading →
Diablo 2: Rune and Runeword Guide
When talking about Runes, we have to keep in mind that we can only find them in the Diablo 2 expansion set Lord of Destruction. They are special items that you can insert into socketed items to give them better stats. They can increase your attack speed, make something indestructible, allow you to not be... Continue Reading →
