WoW esports gets Dragonslayer Challenge
First up, the Dragonslayer Challenge will be all about speedrunning. Happening between June 8 and June 9, this event will feature the Progress and None of the Above guilds racing against time to conquer the Blackwing Descent raid.
The twist? These guilds will neither have easy access to the top-tier items nor all the time in the world to get the best gear possible.According to the official announcement, the Dragonslayer Challenge will only give these guilds basic characters at level 85 and limited time to gear up.
Fans and supporters will be able to catch all of the Dragonslayer Challenge action over on WoW’s officialTwitchandYouTubechannels.
