Watching Blizzard: I’m going to keep cheering on the Dragons

Added 2018-03-06 23:17:49 +0000 UTC

Have I used that headline before? It feels that I've used that headline before... but it's still true. As of today, the Shanghai Dragons are missing a coach and their four newest recruits still haven't arrived in the country due to visa issues. However, I'm going to keep cheering for my favorite underdogs. It has to work out one day, right? Right.

Let's do the news, starting with our favorite Overwatch League team.

The Shanghai Dragons have lost their coach

The assistant coach is stepping in to fill the role, but what (if anything) does this mean for the Dragons' terrible losing streak? We'll find out when the team is back on stage this Wednesday. (But since they're playing the Dynasty, I'm not going to hold my breath.)

Sorry, WoW PVPers

Seething Shore honor gains have been nerfed. They were fun while they lasted, though.

Anne is still exploring Zuldazar on the Battle for Azeroth alpha

In the latest gallery, she ventures through Temple of the Prophet and Atal'Dazar.

Sonya and Medivh reworks are live in Heroes of the Storm

It's patch day, everyone! Check out the patch notes for the details — and Samuro fans rejoice, because a change that prevented him from switching places with a clone back at the Hall of Storms was reverted between the PTR patch and live patch.

Hearthstone is reworking Arena drafts

The idea is to make each draft pick more of a choice and less of a no-brainer, but I have to wonder how the concept will play out in game. We'll see when Update 10.4 rolls out at an as-of-yet unknown date.
And don't forget: we should have a livestream about Year of the Raven coming up soon. It was canceled last week due to the Ranked Play bug and hasn't yet been rescheduled... but it's bound to be back some time this week.

These are your must-play Overwatch heroes

Or at least they're Overwatch heroes. But does that mean they're great or does that mean they're just popular?

That's all for today, readers. I'll be back tomorrow, probably to sadly mourn another loss by the Dragons. In the meanwhile, this is Liz, signing out.
