Battle for Azeroth will be bringing new Mythic+ affixes and a whole lot of new dungeons for teams to race in, and now we know when we'll get to start those races! All Method MDI teams and players will be pushing those M+ numbers hard when the unlock on September 4th (except for those that will also be raiding with the guild, with the World First race starting on September 11th)! This leaves 3 weeks to get your gear ready for the challenges Mythic Keystones pose, so get ready on BfA launch in just under two weeks' time and head into those dungeons after September 4th!

Make (and Play) New Friends!
With the release of Battle for Azeroth on August 14, players will begin their journey toward bringing two new Allied Races to the fold: Mag’har orcs and Dark Iron dwarves. You’ll earn their loyalty through the expansion’s War Campaign and will need to meet the following requirements to add their might to your faction:
- Reach level 120
- Become Exalted with the key subfaction from your side’s War Campaign:
- Alliance: 7th Legion
- Horde: The Honorbound
- Complete the War Campaign in Kul Tiras and Zandalar and earn the Achievement Ready for War (earnable on both Horde and Alliance).
There’s plenty of ground to cover in Battle for Azeroth, and it all comes down to where you’ll focus your efforts first.
Uldir Awaits
Millenia ago, seeking to understand the nature of their eternal foe, the titans constructed this sprawling underground facility to research and quarantine captured specimens. They hoped that by studying the void energy that bound the Old Gods, probing it for weaknesses and reactions, they could find some way to neutralize it. They were horribly, horribly wrong. The facility was sealed away so that the horrors within would never be unleashed upon Azeroth. But now those seals have broken. . . .

Read about rated PvP updates and rewards here and prepare to leap, blink, sneak, or charge your way into the action.
Battle for Azeroth: Mythic Keystone Dungeon Season 1 – September 4
We’re adding a new layer to Mythic Keystone Dungeons with the introduction of Mythic Dungeon seasons that align with the latest content and rewards. As a part of Season 1, we will be introducing using a new seasonal affix—Infested—which will appear on level 10 or higher Keystones. The Infested affix reflects the extent of the corruption of the blood god G’huun as it seeps out into Azeroth to infect select denizens of each dungeon. With each new season, we’ll be changing out this third affix to keep players on their toes. How will you deal with these new dangers?
