I'd argue that's the norm, lol. Funny that it happens as early as the boss not spawning though

N'zoth not spawning isn't that bad, as Max said several times doing splits was probably the right move at that time anyway
The Carapace bug was a lot worse since it cost them a couple hours of wiping to nonsense

Method breeze through to Nzoth now after they did a split or two and bought a few corruption pieces of gear. Race back on?

This is the scary part for Limit. Method have caught up and past them on the end boss literally every tier so far in BFA. Wondering if the new additions to Limit's roster and the fact that they had more of a head start on nzoth is enough this time.

Limit just cleared the secret phase with full raid alive but nothing happened and p2 just repeats but the room was still full of void zones.
N'zoth at 68% after 11min combat. Currently unclear how you play this fight or if something is bugged / missing.

This thing is so broken lol. Limit found out you could just not go in the secret portal, and then N'zoth stopped doing mechanics and they just burned it from 75% to 25%. Then he got a shield, so they went in the portal, and once they cleared it and came back Blizzard had to despawn N'zoth manually to stop them from killing :o
I think N'zoth now oneshots you if you dont go in the portal
They also found out enrage timer is 13min which makes it pretty unkillable

Were they not accused of bug exploiting this? Or was that not right.
|
Hardly an exploit since they didn't do anything other than attack the boss. Problem was N'zoth wasn't doing damage enough to force them in the portal. So they just kept attacking.
It was clearly unintended but that's on Blizz
I can't imagine having the willpower to do these races tbh, spending so much energy on a competition with no real rules and on a buggy product

Yeah 100%

It is just an interactive beta test these days. At least you know that Blizz is sometimes looking over your shoulder with the intent of fixing the things that you're breaking, unlike the actual beta.

New hotfix for Nzoth: Thought Harvester cast the aoe while moving. P2 is now harder and Limit / Method need to relearn the phase.
|
Don't worry, they reverted it in time for Method to get on

The main issue with the race with the NA vs EU is Blizzard is just stupid. Why do they implement the patch in 3 different regions on 3 different days it is silly. The main patch is always now released separately to when they release the "mythic" raid anyway, so that day it is literally changing one line of code i would assume to let you enter the raid? Why do they ruin the "race" that they now "support" by not releasing it worldwide at the same time.
NA - 12pm PST (midday) EU - 7pm GMT CST - 4am Chinese time KST - 5am Aussie time - 7am (ish big country xd)
But doing something like that, hitting the button at that time then makes the race way fairer and better for everyone. Method are not that far behind if you look at kill times and pull counts.

Its a remnant from the old days where raids opened with patches and they actually needed maintenance. I don't see why they couldn't change it to all be at the same time because as you say, its just a push of a button now and it can happen at any time.
The obvious reason is they simply don't care.

Yeah they straight up don't care but they are "starting" to now due to the money/exposure Method and Limit are gaining for these events now through twitch and what not. Hopefully they do align it all in shadowlands to make it a lot more fun for everyone.

Limit seems really tilted right now.
|
Limit hit enrage at 18%.
According to an email from blizzard on max's stream. The shield at 25% only happens when you dont go into the chamber. New strat is to just kill the boss after portal.

The enrage means they have no chance, to find that much more dps is impossible unless there are items out there for them still to buy.
Method a life time behind with best try at like 50%

Yeah, pretty sure Limit got this one in the bag if Method is their only competition which they might not be. Who knows how good the chinese attempts before reset were and what Pieces managed to get. But Method made barely any progress yesterday.
