‘Tis the Season: Thanks and Praises to the WoW Community

As we’re about to take a little break for the holidays to spend time with our friends and loved ones, perhaps by the fire with ardent spirits filling our goblets, and frankincense and myrrh nipping at our noses—or really just getting in some much desired game time—we want to wish all of you a very merry journey into the new year!

In a most festive (and potentially damning) fashion, we put together this picture of the North American World of Warcraft community team for you.


Back (from left): Crithto, Bornakk, Zarhym, Rygarius
Front (from left): Brennvin, Daxxarri, Nethaera, Bashiok

If that doesn’t provide you with sufficient joy, here are some unedited individual shots of us. I can’t tell you how ill-advised it would be of me to suggest that you manipulate these images as you see fit. It would be especially inappropriate to then ask that you send your strange interpretations to us on Twitter. That seems quite absurd!

@CM_Crithto Bornakk @CM_Zarhym @Rygarius
@CM_Brennvin @Daxxarri @Nethaera @Bashiok

It’s truly been a pleasure for us to represent Blizzard and the World of Warcraft community to each other this past year. We’re anxious to hit the ground running in January, and we look forward to sharing in the adventure with you. Have a lovely holiday, all!

Daxxarri, where do you get that hoodie?! It looks epic! If someone can please tell me where to get it, I will look it up, purchase it, and wear it for the next 5 weeks without taking it off. Ty. Hope your holidays were wonderful.

You guys are awesome.

Though i think you're nuts for posting pics like those lol.

Someone needs to take Crithto's head from his individual shot and photoshop it onto the body of the pug. Also, Zarhym, if those jeans got any skinnier you'd be dangerously close to being a hipster, sir!

In all seriousness, you all look great. Lots of giggles and you seem to have had fun with the pics. I <3 you all and thank you for all the work that you do! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
