Arathi should have had Aussie accents

I still hold out hope that one day we will get an expansion set in a land based on Australia.

Impossible to do it justice would involve far too many f and c words to keep that PG rating :dracthyr_crylaugh:

Also like the island would have to be exclusively hospitable on the coasts and the center would have to be a deadly wasteland.

Because the game doesnt already have deadly wasteland zones?

As long as anything with an Australian accent is a playable on the horde im all for it since the alliance is bogarting all the sexy space Russians, all 3 flavors of space goats red normal and light forged

As long as they got actual Australians to voice them, as an Aussie the small errors in Junkrat’s pronunciation (example: pronouncing “path” with an A sound like an American would as opposed to the way we do, to rhyme with hearth) in Overwatch just drive me nuts :joy:

Australia already has significant representation in this expansion. I mean, they based an entire zone off it; Azj-Kahet. :spider:

We do worship fire down here.

If Blizzard does end up giving us a zone or a whole continent based on Australia, there needs to be three things

  1. A flightless bird that no matter how many times you kill them, they always come back
  2. A song bird that has a massive aggro range during certain times of the year. Even more so if you are on a mount.
  3. A bird that does nothing but laugh at you when the above things happen.

You forgot a bird who swoops down on you and your only defense is a stick. And also bears that drop out of trees to attack unsuspecting players.

Nope not like the centre of Australia

That was the second Magpies are song birds and during mating season they’re very protective of their territory especially their nests.

This is their song if your curious.

Nah the Dropbearians (or Droppahs) would be the playable race for the expansion.

They would get a Kangaroo racial mount where they ride in the sack.
A racial passive would be “Knifey Spooney” giving all Droppahs 1% damage bonus to daggers.

A second racial passive would be “Smooth Brain” where if the food they are eating is not on a branch they are unable to recognise it as food and get no benefit at all from eating (look it up, koalas are that dumb)

Racial ability would be “Tall Poppy”, every 3 mins you are able to identify an opponent doing really well and guarantee a critical strike by cutting them down to size like the over achiever they are!

New class would be Yobbo. A cloth wearing tank class that throws empty stubbies and hurling vulgarities to draw the attention of the enemies who do their best to ignore you, only making you angrier and louder and more attention grabbing than before.

Ah, you say that. But are you sure? I see no mention of…THE STICK!

You would not be able to handle the terror that is the huntsman spider as it majesticly gallops across the plains to eat you
