The race for the World First Kill in World of Warcraft Midnight is over. Team Liquid has dominated and was the first to defeat L’ura.
It’s over. Team Liquid has succeeded and defeated the Dawn of Midnight, the final fight against L’ura in the march on Quel’danas on mythic difficulty. This is currently the toughest boss in World of Warcraft. With this, Team Liquid emerges as the winner of this race for the World First Kill. Congratulations!
Team Liquid claims the World First Kill of L’ura
What made the fight so difficult? In the fight against L’ura, there were many difficulties. First, it turned out that some mechanics on mythic difficulty were so complex that the pros resorted to writing their own addons to use them in the fight. Blizzard had to relent, further restrict addon functionalities, and at the same time provide more official options to master these mechanics.
The next turning point was that L’ura on mythic difficulty had a secret fourth phase, which had no prior hint. This led to premature jubilation that then turned into surprise. This final phase demanded everything from the pros once again.
How long did the race last? The race lasted just over 13 days, although progress was staggered. The final raid, that is, the march on Quel’danas, only opened a week ago. The pure time in the last raid was therefore just under 7 days.
In numbers, the race was quite impressive, as L’ura proved to be exceptionally resilient. The pros from Liquid required a hefty 474 attempts to secure the victory.
What about other guilds? At the time of this article (April 7, 2026, 00:40 AM), Echo is narrowly in 2nd place (raider.io). They are also in the 4th phase of L’ura and have brought the Naaru down to 1% of its health points. Only seconds separated this guild from snatching the victory away from Liquid – but it was not meant to be.
What did you think of the race for the World First Kill in the first season of World of Warcraft Midnight? An exciting race that was interesting until the last second? Or did you think that this staggered raid structure harmed the race?
