How will no addon effect MDI, AWC and WFR

I feel that with MDI and WFR, it will sort itself out when Blizzard designs fights that don’t require addons. However, this could also have a negative effect, as people want WFR and MDI because of how difficult the fights are and how the tropes best showcase WoW players playing their game perfectly. Yes addons help but let’s be real even if anyone of us with the same addons these world top wow players use anc with custom Weak Aura we would still be crap so don’t agure addons did the all the work for them. The fights would be pretty boring for the average human to keep track of, wouldn’t the fights be back to classic, BC days ,where there are little mechanics?

AWC appears to be a bigger issue here, as there is no way for Blizzard to police players who use outside help to gain an advantage. Maybe teams with resources will have a mod real time looking at the other team’s CD usage and calculate exactly when the CD is off or when the other team can heave CD back. I might not be s accurate as an addon, but is still an advantage. Or team with financial resources will even have all the players play in the location (much like Limit and Echo and Method WFR), and a mod has all the players monitor hook up to his and he can see everything and CD from the other teams, etc. Woulnd’t this turn AWC more into WFR, where the winners are always going to 1 or 2 teams who have the money to support, while other teams don’t are left in the dust? Woudln’t blizzard need to move all AWC to a location where they have their own employee to monitior the event to make it is sure fair for everyone?

It’ll be one fat bao bao

Heya while I’m not great I can somewhat speak towards the MDI.

Basically for MDI we are practicing the same zone set again and again inside a key until we have it down perfect with our class roster. So e.g that pull in Necrotic Wake for MDI last year.

So in terms of kick assigns etc we already usually have an order or both kicks and CC on what to use when. So let’s say they remove addons - the same thing does not change we get AGES to adapt our gameplay on the tournament realm.

Never tried WFC/AWC so I can’t speak to them but I’m imagining it works similar?

We have no idea what in game options will be made by then and what changes will be made to content mechanics. This is years away.

Likely it’ll be a slap to the face.

Don’t allow addons in any of these, move RWF to a tournament server like it should have been all along… and leave addons alone, for the rest of us.

Fights that require addons are extremely rare, generally only 1 per tier. And Blizzard could stop having those, right now, if they wanted to. Nobody asked them to color-code the mines on Mythic Lockenstock, for example. They chose to do that.
