Diablo's Archangel Tyrael is World of Warcraft's Newest In-Game Mini Pet

If you were lucky enough to go to Blizzard's Worldwide Invitational in Paris at the weekend, you would have gotten a scratch card in your goody bag which entitles you to a World of Warcraft in-game mini pet. Until now, we didn't know what the mini pet would be; unlike the token given away at BlizzCon last year, which clearly indicated the redeemer would receive a Murloc Costume, this one was a mystery.

Blizzard Community Manager, Bornakk, has just announced what the mystery pet is, and I bet all Hell is going to break loose when the demand for these cards goes through the roof...

20 years from now I meet Wuushu junior and believe you ;)

Perhaps not too bad of a name, tbh. Fantasy type names are more and more common actually.

I agree, with all the recent news around D3 those cards could be worth quite a bit.

Can't wait for the patch to be released.

You are probably right. Even though there are about.. I think it was a few 1000 that attended? out there the demand for these is probably a whole lot bigger. So.. how does it actually look like in the wow engine?

We don't know yet unfortunately, it goes live with patch 2.4.3 which will be sometime in the next month probably.

@3.3 Ah, I already wondered how that worked. So the Scratch card cannot be used right away. Seems logically enough since it would have been found in the code and been a clear clue for the Diablo III announcement.

I don't know why, but I got the impression from the news article that the screenshots would probably be released before the patch:

"Pictures of this amazing new pet will be available on the official website soon..." sounds a lot shorter then "...after patch 2.4.3 is released in the near future". :)

So hopefully we can at least see the mini pet, even if we can't yet get them.

You think they might be able to fight? I mean Mini-Diablo and mini-Tyrael?

I think having them both out would be bad. Bad for the whole of Azeroth. As in crossing the streams bad. That bad. Don't you dare do it, I don't want yet another server crash on Tularyon!

Its hard to guess really. Clues flying around on the unannounced 4th project. They confirm its a next gen MMO (whatever that means) and that there is a dev team working on it.

Other then that its just rumours: Diablo MMO, Starcraft MMO or a new franchise? Thinking about it, I think creating a totally new brand for their next MMO isn't that strange. They will have all the freedom in the world (literally) to do and go where they want. Maybe some viking inspired thing isn't all that strange?

Well, you know my opinion on the matter. SC MMO or bust...

Still, I can see that it's possible for a new franchise to emerge, I just really, really hope it will be SC MMO. I am actually afraid it might be a new IP =P

It will probably be epic, but I want epic marines in space... Think, EVE, but more fun and char driven! =D

I actually think a brand new title would be good for Blizzard, it would bring in some new blood, rather than re-hashing old stuff. Whatever happens, it'll be good. Blizzard can't seem to fail at the moment, long may they rein! ;)

StarCraft MMO, PLEASE!
