So everyone knows that the pride and joy of “pro” guilds when it comes to raiding is getting to claim world firsts. This is how guilds like Nihilum, SK Gaming and Ensidia entered commonplace knowledge of the more serious WoW raiders. Right now there is a stranglehold by EU guilds of world firsts it seems. Of course there can only be one world first and that mean pro guilds are essentially vying in a neverending competition until a victor is decided. With competition naturally comes shit-talking and rivalries, then shenanigans or drama.

I never really thought it possible in the WoW hardcore raiding scene but apparently it does happen.

Example here on the Ensidia website in the comment section of member, Buzzkill’s blog with an inflammatory post demanding all guilds to basically, BRING THE PAIN! LOL

Quite amusing to find a crack in the professional facade that Ensidia and other “pro” guilds usually maintain. Usually we associate guild drama with the little people that are unruly and chaotic (such as Wow Insider’s Guild Watch segment) rather than the highly regimented and strict “pro” gamers.

Excerpt from the post that incited the “beef”

“i only wonder what stopped Americans from picking up the kill. After all they did have 1 day lead on the whole instance… Well all in all, they will have many excuses, but i don’t assume their keyboardturning mouseclicking members have anything to do with it… Dibs to Exo for being definitely most hardcore US guild, but shame that hardcoreness doesn’t actually make you good… Don’t wanna beef, but let me just say that retarded excuses make you look funny… a guy from Vodka that said how EU had an advantage because we tested Vezax? But 30 hour lead on a release is what exactly then? Please, I’m the last one to preach about sore losing(or graceful winning for that matter) but soak it the fuck up… Only that competition is totally fair from now on, let the best guild win.”

Some gems in the comments section:

see any watchers in that SS buzzkill? Grats on your easymode worldfirst, while we test hardmode.

We will kill it whenever we want on easymode.

Also I am quite curious because I know you eurotrash guilds have quite the ego to protect, are you guys going to disband next time we beat you on a kill?”

And here is another gem:

“Yo Buzzkill… YOU SUCK ASS. I bet you I smoked your noob ass on damage on Yogg, you just can’t compete with the professionals. The rest of your guild might carry you to a first kill but if you wanna be on the caliber of the best you’ll just have to watch a vid… and take notes of what I do. You post TBC euro trash noob, there’s nothing like experience. I love it when you rage rage rage all the time and then proceed to talk trash, then never even post your own damage and make some lame ass threads about how to play a lock… Just keep practicing kid maybe one day you will have some skill.”

And in closing, a random supporter”

“Hmm, sounds like alot of U.S. vs. Europe going on here, honestly if your going to try to give Ensidia trash, just remember theyre alot better than you. They have been for a while .. These two guilds combined shouldnt be given crap for being eurotrash, and just remember THEY GET PAYED YOU DONT.”

Fun reading, eh?

P.S. I kept all the grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes as is with the occasional excisement for easier reading.
