Bronze Clockwork for me

I thought ‘Bronze clockwork’ was challenging for my wardrobe, but then the next theme I got was ‘Shadowlands’. :grimacing:

shadowlands…

Edit: but honestly after I realized that the less effort I put into my transmog the higher the chance of actually getting on the podium it wasn’t all that bad.

Easy W, if you wear the clown mog

Honestly I’m just happy when I see others making an effort to fulfill the themes. Personally though, I found the clockwork theme challenging on everything but my mage.

I probably have most trouble with Expedition. Catwalk…mainly coz I dont really know what that even means!

Is that a new one? Sounds odd.

Already got the whole uggs collection, a gold themed staff for the priest and a hat for the pirate paladin mog.
In retrospect, should have taken the beanie instead of the hat, for the hipster hobo paladin mog.

I’ve got 6 wins across 2 characters so far.

2x Bronze Clockwork - Took some thought, but got there.
2x Dark Magic (my normal everyday Mage Mog (not the pirate one)).
1x Fun a Flirty - honestly, it was so basic I was surprised to win it.
1x Gothic - Easy mode.

My Dwarf Rogue is having a walk in the park with ‘Expedition Catwalk’. Also I retract what I said about ‘Shadowlands’, I just cracked that nut and won the competition. So I am back to having Bronze Clockwork’ as my brick wall for the char.

Trial’s goin wilds!

My favourite until now was “faction pride”.

I Had a really hard time with "Profession "Theme… it poped out 5 times in a row too!!

All of them, because most players don’t actually seem to take it serious. Examples:

  • Theme: Shadowlands. I get my finest combination of mogs going for a sand/purple combination, combining pieces of PvP gear with a variation of other matching pieces, not even top 3. In the meanwhile top 3 was someone wearing venthyr cosmetic set, a dh wearing mythic vault and someone else who didn’t have anything related to shadowlands.
  • Theme: going green. I just grabbed a bfa nazjatar open world set with a shovel: second place…
  • Theme: Dark Magic (or whatever), I have the exact same look as someone else, but a different (arguably better looking scythe), they get second, I don’t make it into top 3…

At this point people are just trolling.

In my experience most players are trying to be relevant to the theme. The few occasions a non-conformist have won it have been a surprise for everyone, and it have been declared being a voting glitch.

No, some players tend to vote for the guy who put no effort in because “who will vote for this no effort attempt”. When you get a few players with that mindset, there tends to be big upsets.

or strategic voting resulting in everyone strategically voting for the worst one :unamused:

Faction pride.
The only thing i can think of for this is either garrosh cosplay or bfa battlefront gear + tabard & neither has rly scored any points for me.

The easiest for me is free style / fun & flirty as my mains “alleyway thug” outfit steals the show most of the time.
