Let me explain it for the gamers: This is a Mythic boss encounter. Don't take unnecessary damage so the healers—our doctors and nurses—can preserve mana for the unavoidable damage spikes. If you mess up a mechanic the entire raid will wipe. Stay home when possible. Be safe.

WoW is the the best esport because it is understood that 98% of pros are playing despite the game being a net negative to their income and/or personal well being. Because of this there aren’t ever any admin issues because in some ways being eliminated from a tourney is a relief.
