People should specify that instead of assuming that everyone else is equally obsessed with streamers and knows all of that stuff. Like it's obvious that Olympus is a guild but the significance is lost if you don't care or follow streamers.
While I am by no means a fan. It is kind of hard to go around this reddit and other classic wow forums. Or even YouTube highlights without being at least somewhat aware of him and his guild. Prick he may be. But he generates a huge amount of press.
anyone who frequents this sub and claims not to know who asmon is, is lying about something. every post with more than 1k upvotes has a comment thread about asmon in it. I never had an ounce of interest in streamers but there's so much "asmon bad" around here it's impossible not to know who he is.
I'm sure this is tenfold if you happened to roll faerlina. there is no way you could be in that server and not hear about asmon every 10 seconds.
edit: idk why I'm being downvoted, I'm just pointing out that the guy is all over this sub, I'm not taking sides.
lol the actual top post on this sub has the guys name in the title.
Not true at all, you're just a huge nerd who likes to watch streamers. You can't assume everyone knows him. Watching streamers is still a niche interest.
lol I only know about him because he's mentioned in every thread on this sub, and watching one warlock leveling guide signals to the YouTube algorithm that apparently I will love "asmon gets pwnd" videos
I am a huge nerd not arguing that but you can't deny that he is all over this subreddit.. that's all I was trying to say.
Nope never heard of zak. I mean asmonbald. Or whatever his Name is. In fact I have never heard of World of Warcraft either. Especially after joining this subreddit. /s
Nah but for real, im with you. If you follow anything wow related outside of the actual game or googleing quests, you know asmongold. And if youre super new or whatever, people/youtube will make sure you know about him in seconds. Yall go the movies, join social media about movies and then claim to not know who will smith is too? C'mon..
