Twitch streamer complains after being chosen for the wrong raid in WoW: It goes even worse than expected

At WoW Classic, the first raids of the Twitch guild OnlyFangs took place in the Molten Core. The first raid claimed some victims. Alongside Tyler1, it also took down Quin69, a well-known streamer. Interestingly, one of his teammates, Summit1g, was directly responsible for his death.

Here was the situation: The Twitch guild OnlyFangs has so many members that they send two raid groups into the 40-player instance Molten Core (The Molten Core), the first raid ever in World of Warcraft. Molten Core came into play with the release of the MMORPG in 2004. 21 years later, the boss mechanics are causing a stir, as every death here is permanent and costs the streamer their character, many hours of work, and ultimately the chance to actively participate in OnlyFangs.

A “draft” took place before the raid: The raid leaders could alternately pick a player from the player pool. One raid group was led by Tyler1, while the other was led by Mizkif.

Mizkif chose Quin69, who had previously hoped not to end up in Mizkif’s raid. He apparently sensed what was about to happen.

The New Zealander Quin69 is one of the leading streamers on Twitch when it comes to Path of Exile and Diablo 4. The 34-year-old has repeatedly gotten into trouble and faced bans in the past because he spoke faster on Twitch than he could think.

This was Quin69’s reaction to the pick: During the draft, Quin mumbled as Mizkif explained whom he would choose: “Not me, not me.”

But Mizkif chose “his boy Quin69.” The selected streamer screamed out: NO! Take it back, take it back! But it was too late.

In comments on the scene, it was noted on reddit.

• “The face of a man who knows he will die in 3 days”
• “The guy reacts as if he has been drafted to the front lines of an army”
• “Mizkif just doesn’t take the game as seriously as Tyler1 and doesn’t seem to be fully in it.”

Quin69 dies during the first boss fight

This is how the raid went: Quin69 actually managed to die during the first boss fight in the Molten Core and lost his character permanently.

The problem was that the Twitch streamer Summit1g triggered the ability “Blade Flurry,” which causes every attack to hit an additional target.

However, such abilities should be avoided in the boss fight. With the “Mind Control” ability of the boss enemies, teammates can be taken over and displayed as “hostile.”

Summit1g accidentally takes out Quin69: Could be my fault

How did he die? Quin69 died because Summit1g accidentally hit him with Blade Flurry and took him out. The rogue’s Blade Flurry ability causes him to attack 20% faster and hit a second target. One should strictly avoid this ability in the boss fight against Lucifron.

When Quin69 dies, the first call is immediately MC-Kill,” a death by one’s own fire, while a player was mind-controlled and taken over by the enemy.

In the discussion, Summit1g repeatedly apologizes to his colleague, saying he is sorry. He hadn’t even considered it, while raid leader Mizkif takes responsibility: It was his fault. He should have made it clearer that during the fight, mages need to dispel all curses and players should refrain from using abilities that cause area damage.

On reddit, it is critically noted, however, that Quin69 should not complain so loudly: The statistics indicate that he was the one who caused the most damage to teammates.

What happens next? Mizkif and his raid actually managed to complete Molten Core. Mizkif led the raid from an internet cafe in Japan (via reddit).

Quin69 was replaced because he lost his character and could no longer participate. It is assumed that Quin69, as a hardcore player, will simply continue with WoW and level up a new character.

For Tyler1, the leader of the other raid, the situation was even more dramatic. Tyler1 decided to quit WoW altogether: WoW: Leader of the guild “OnlyFangs” dies in the raid, is betrayed by everyone, and also dissed by Blizzard
