JP was unable to make it today, but the show must go on! Myself and Kintt sat down with Serennia to talk about a few of the recent changes affecting arena, ESL’s invitational tournament which took place on Wednesday and also the upcoming MLG Columbus event.
I apologize for the short show as it was last minute, but I figured something is better than nothing. We weren’t able to get into any of the user questions (blame JP) but we’ll make up for it on next week’s show. There will be plenty to talk about as we take an in-depth look at MLG’s first WoW event of the year.
If you have questions for us, e-mail them to questions@arenacast.net and we’ll be sure to answer them. Also remember to idle #arenacast on irc.gamesurge.net
We (I) finally got around to getting people to record a show and this is it. No Serennia, although his internet did return halfway through the show (guess he found the money?), but it was myself, Igoaf, Kintt, and Azazael from Team EG.
We cover topics such as The Elite Eight TR Council, 3.1, and new comps in Season 6. Thanks for listening and Saturday is now our regular show date.
Also, a reminder that our in-browser player is shit so you’re forced to download it. I’m sorry.
UPDATE #2: Sunday now. Without blaming anyone just going to say we’re not having a show this week. Serennia has nothing to do with this really, as we were planning for a show without him after the silly bill paying drama. Hopefully we can get a show up sometime during the week this week, but with people raiding and what not it is hard to get people on the show for a recording, which makes a live show out of the question (for now). Maybe next Saturday we’ll have something for you guys. I apologize for not having something for you this week and teasing you all for days now. We’ll get a show recorded when we get a show recorded, I’ll leave it at that.
UPDATE: As of 6:20 CST we decided to call it as the great Phuox could not be found. Igoaf and I agreed that we should try to wait and see if he comes around tomorrow (perhaps adjusting to European schedule already or something?) so we’re going to shoot for an early recording in the day time. If he isn’t around, as the Wing King Kintt said, “THE SHOW MUST GO ON,” channeling his inner Freddie. We’ll pull something together tomorrow if he isn’t and have it up for you guys (hopefully) by 4 p.m. CST. Sorry for the delay in show coming up yet again. Till tomorrow~
We’re going to be recording (yes, recording, again) this Saturday around 6 CST. We’re recording again because my laptop battery died and because Dell is such a piece of shit I can’t go buy a 130w battery here in town and have to order one… I digress. We’ll start doing live shows again whenever I get the battery (probably the next week).
So, Kintt, Igoaf, Serennia, and possibly some other WoW players (I might join in, we’ll see) on Arenacast this week. Expect show to be up around 7:30 p.m. CST or 8. Till then, have fun slaying dragons.
Once again the arenacast roster was all over the place. Minor was unable to be on the show but she was replaced by Zyz, a rogue hero, with stories from their trip through Europe. Serennia was also unable to attend due to dragon slaying, but was still there in spirit.
In the show we discussed the tournament realm, 3.1’s impending changes, rogues from zyZ’s perspective, the rating changes to season six and as always plenty of drama about a fox, wolf and wings.
We were able to cover a lot of the questions that you’ve all been sending in so keep them coming!
Also in the show we discussed moving the show to Saturday evenings. Tell us what you think of the idea via the poll below. Thanks!
We had a last minute roster change for the night. Serennia and Oplaid both bowed out (due to personal reasons) and we had the last minute addition of Zilea, currently fourth place on the Tournament Realm running the popular Paladin / Warlock / Death Knight comp.
In the show we discuss the the ArenaCast Graphic Contest, Tournament Realm, the ever popular WPD comp, the latest on the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus, and also the new PTR build that was posted during the show.
Next week on the show we have Minor from eMg (OMG A GURL WOT) and the rest of the cast should return. If you guys haven’t checked out LiveOn3 yet please do so if you are at all interested in e-sports. They’re website can be found HERE along with past shows. Thanks and see you guys next week.
Tonight’s show was… well, it was filled with drama. Usually I tend to try and make our shows not about drama, but alas I could not keep the fox contained, especially with Happyminti calling him forth. So there’s that.
There is also some great talk about the ESL tournament, Patch 3.1, and of course user questions! Yay! That reminds me: all questions can be sent to questions@arenacast.net and we will get them next week. So thanks for listening, lets go for a record download again. Share this to all your friends, etc.
Sorry for the late upload, technical (idiocy) problems delayed it. See you all next week.
Temporary Alt Download Link, only up for a little bit: HERE
The regular crew (minus oplaid) sit down and discuss the upcoming ESL event. Also we talk about how we’re doing nightly commentating for the ESL event starting at 3 a.m. tomorrow (Thursday) night. Tune into the Ustream link below around that time to hear us tomorrow night at about 3 a.m. Thanks for listening to the show!
On a side note the past two weeks we’ve been really close to hitting a landmark number of downloads. Lets try for it this week. If we hit it, we might be able to give something away to our listeners! Spread the love!
This week we announced ArenaRecaps. You can visit their site HERE . It may not look like much but what Bill and Ctide are doing is really remarkable and something any fan of WoW PvP will enjoy in the future. Also you can check out their irc channel at #arenarecaps on irc.gamesurge.net.
The rest of the show we discuss the ramifications of 3.1 (in detail), talk about eMg’s new WoW team, a little insight to the tournament realm, and then of course user questions. We’ll see you guys next week for our ESL Preview show. Thanks for listening!
Another long show. Pretty happy with it though. We have a surprise guest about an hour in (his appearance was really “good” heh heh heh) and Didy from GotGame joins us. We discuss things like the new tournament realm, warlocks, the Kill E A situation , ESL Finals and the European groups . Read more…
For all you death knights I released a “rune addon” a few days ago. I’ve spent a great deal of time making it extremely flexible and customizable. Special thanks to Serennia for being a testing slave and a factory of ideas. It wouldn’t be where it is today without him. Since it’s unrelated to arena I’ll be keeping it on WoWAce/Curse so leave feedback on its addon page. (link after the jump) Read more…
