they also stole the arena world championship money when they sold a toy for that
I donât see how discriminating against russian consumers is going to help anyone.
Theyâre normal people playing a videogame.
This anti-russian obsession the west has is part of what led us to this point.
Letâs just drop it maybe.
Nah the west accepting a criminal warlord as a legitimate leader of russia and doing business with him and paying him hand over fist for gas and other resources is what led us to this.
Thanks for proving my point.
thx for the support blizzard and community! it is very touching
Just conformation from Blizzard customer support that they donât plan to make these pets regular store items once this bundle goes away on 29th August.
So this will likely be our only chance of obtaining these pets. This Might be important info for pet collectors out there.

The way they say âthese versions of the petsâ hints that there could be recolors of them eventually, but the original ones will probably stay locked away, or at least for the foreseeable future.
youâre either russian or just donât understand whatâs going on.
I know what I want to say, but I donât know if I can.
I do not belong in Gryffindor.
Agreed.
To⌠what point, exactly? Doggo pets or Putin LARPing as Peter the Great?
Should be 200%. A lot of companies, which makes Support Ukraine campaigns - double the amount of money simple people bring.
So if people donate 2million - Blizzard should add additional 2 million to make it 4mil.
I find it funny that youâre selling this now, I can clearly remember getting an 8 days ban from your game in 2020, for a political comment made about the actuality on the /world channel on Classic WoW.
A GM was roaming around, and I got instantly banned within 10sec after I posted my message (which wasnât even hateful / racist / discriminating at all)
When I made a ticket and requested an unban, your GM expressively told me âthere is no room for politics in World of Warcraftâ.
Well, guess there are some political opinions, movements that are allowed and some arenât.
Except that this is for humanitarian relief/aid not politics. Blizzard have done this before for countries devastated by earthquakes and natural disasters. This is similar except for a country devastated by another countryâs actions. Itâs something new for them to do, I think, and maybe as a result of the BlueCheck campaign. (And another sleb wow player I didnât know played wow).
Itâs helping people whoâve lost everything, not countries.
Because the russian people themselfs arnt the culprit.
Why would they ban the people themselfs?
Now that the sensible reply is out of the way we return you to the political claptrapâŚ
Super cute!!!
People clearly donât read and just want to get on their soapboxes. Itâs disappointing to see some be so negative about a positive campaign.
About BlueCheck Ukraine
BlueCheck Ukraine, co-founded by actor and activist Liev Schreiber, was launched by a collective of humanitarian crisis response experts whose mission is to quickly identify, vet, and support grassroots Ukrainian aid organizations that provide critical life-saving and humanitarian work on the ground. The organization fast-tracks urgent financial funds to partners who deliver medical care and rehabilitate damaged health facilities, evacuate and care for orphans and children with special needs, provide food, water, and shelter for people driven from their homes, take care of senior citizens, and quickly respond to many more urgent needs of Ukrainians affected by the war.
*Pet Pack for Ukraine is available from the Battle.netÂŽ Shop until 29 August 2023, 18:00 BST (17:00 GMT). These versions of pets are special editions available as a part of this initiative only.
**From 25 July to 29 August 2023, Blizzard Entertainment will donate 100% of the purchase price of each âPet Pack for Ukraine,â to BlueCheck, less any chargebacks, refunds, and Value Added Taxes (VAT), or other similar taxes paid.
***Requires World of WarcraftÂŽ Subscription or Game Time
Fortunately your facts arenât even actual facts.
Itâs going to be brutal if Ukraine lose and then are portrayed as evil and Iâve got a pet showing I supported them.
I do like the Classic pet though.
these are real facts
A simple google search reveals the truth:-

Ukraine bans Kremlin-linked TV channels
So lets get back to those cute pets and the good they are doing raising money for a worthy charity for a people who are suffering.
