According to Bellulars source (a blizz employee in china who leaks stuff to netease during dinner meetings)
Shadowlands Patch 9.1 release date is the week of July 1st.
so for the USA it is Tuesday June 29th.
That is kinda patriotic to be gathering the covenants, we are in this together style to take on the Maw by 4th of july weekend.
never knew china gets patch and maintenance days on Thursdays or is china 2 days ahead or what??
coulda been june 1st with TBC but as blizz ION stated recently blizz now wants release dates between the classic series and the normal retails series to be at least a month between launches (which feels dumb af especially when they choose classic content to come out first like ffs most players already had this content and its not like it dont exist in retail if you go to those zones so you purposely add extra month or months onto retail?? who cares if they are out on the same day a majority of ppl who play classic just dont care for retails and if they do they aren’t missing out on anything, its literally in both games…)

nah because hes a copy cat leaker, who steals leaks from other like towlie was the one who gave timeframes and the fact that june 1st was tbc classic release way before blizz leaked it on the bnet launchers and way before bellular covered it but anytime the leaks is a source that a (confirmed blizz employee not a person claiming to be blizz) in which any of these content creators knows, then its a fact leak
Another 7 weeks huh. My gandpa only got 7 weeks to live. I guess he can’t play the best patch ever that took 8 months to make. Curse you Bliz.

I like where he gets his source of information. This is more credible than my neighbor’s cousin’s ex-boss who was an ex-Blizzard employee.

Oh and Ion confirmed there will be a 9.2 buuut he didn’t confirm a 9.3 hmm 
probably for safety cuz at this rate they wil lbe forced to end SL with 9.2 with all the delays then the bonus delays demanded by the community, I guess they prefer zones and patches being scrapped to have the satisfactions of blizz being delayed till they feel a class they dont like is nerfed vs getting over themself don’t force a delay, getting to see more before we move on to a different xpac, r.i.p. ogre continent in WoD, whale raid boss, underwater raid in cata + underwater content in any other xpac ever again + datamined N’zoth the zone 8.3 scrapped for reboot of vale and uldum.
- possible elune or titan homeworld sneek peak steve danuser mentioned scrapped if we keep delaying every patch till they skip to 10.0 due to not enoguh time to work on more patches if ppl demands more time on ptr scrape everything after 9.2 to give 10.0 several more months of ppl complaining if their class isnt the strongest in the game.

It just sounds funny in that “a blizzard employee in China…” line. 
Though, netease probably has some idea of the launch date, since they are running the game in China. And, in practicality, July 1 isn’t far fetched after 10 weeks of PTR testing.
Holy crap, the forums are full of psychics today. I’d appreciate knowing the important stuff such as the winning lottery numbers and where will I be in 5 years?

I predicted late June so this is pretty good guess.
Wasn’t the last leak video like August the he got from “Blizz employee?”
People are actually shocked by this despite every single prediction since blizzcon placing it at at least July? With some putting it as far away as August?

My current bet is Mid-July. July 6th would not be too far off I suppose.
nope the last time he spoke he mentioned something that Blizzard told towliee about TBC release. And BLizz told towliee when he asked a dev dev told him june is optimistic
Blizzard is a fing idiot right now ffxiv has a patch coming tonight
Still taking a long time then

I was just thinking the exact same thing. What is this guy even saying half of the time?
Very simple: July 4th is Independence Day. Will Smith will come through and help save the World…of Warcraft
