20th Anniversary Mount-Offs Are Rigged

Profession mounts people have but can’t use because they’re not the right profession? C’mon son, that’s just unfair to anyone that’s not those professions. Oh, and let’s not forget that the last Mount-Off before the servers went down on my server group was the friggin’ BLACK AN’QIRAJI BATTLE TANK! Like really? C’mon son! Who the hell is gonna have that?

Edit:
Editing this post because apparently people wanna believe I’m actually livid about this. I’m not. I just find it comically ridiculous.

Good thing there aren’t any actual rewards for winning these anniversary minigames. Some people would definitely be having meltdowns over it.

I knew it. Pay to win wins again.

I don’t even understand the point of it tbh, like do you get anything if you win?

I won once and got some sparkles around my character and… that’s it? there’s not even an achievement or anything if you win?

it’s kind of literally pointless lol

Oh the tears … I can literally envisage it now, open laptop, click WoW forums bookmark, boom, laptop is consumed by balls of fire.

But there’s no prize. They just say your name. It’s not that serious… but maybe your post is also not serious? Hard to tell. But I do get a giggle when I see that Black Battle Tank as the mount to match. You got to think whoever designed that one to pop up so often thought they were being real cute.

If it helps, I’ll stand by the NPC, call out some mounts and then say your name and you won (regardless of if you have or not) and throw some sparkles at you.

I’m serious in the sense that they’re like ridiculous mounts 99% of the community wont be able to match, but not serious that it’s ruining gameplay flow or anything like that. It’s just absurd lol. Like I even saw the old discontinued Amani Battle Bear.

I won the storytime mini game.

It pulls a mount from the collection of one of the participants. Which means that somebody quite literally has it

This is why they didn’t put any rewards, because they knew people would whine about profession mounts, faction mounts, unavailable or store mounts

So does that mean you can screw everybody if you show up with a collection of nothing but cash shop mounts?

that can’t be true I’ve had a lot of times where they call some obscure mount and literally nobody has it and everyone’s complaining about it lol

Yeah but maybe the point is so the cellar-dwellers can show off their super rare mounts to a large crowd. But, you gotta admit, the collective hate they get when they do is somewhat amusing.

I agree. I have seen that Black (random letters starting with A) Battle Tank at almost every one I’ve been to on different toons on different servers and never seen anyone mount it yet.

Livid or just comically ridiculous, who cares.

It’s a just-for-fun event.

Btw Ive won both the mount and fashion event. You get nothing. Not even like summoned onto the stage. Not even an image of you on stage like with the fashion one.

And this is a “just-for-fun” post.
