WoW.com welcomes new warlock and elemental shaman columnists
WoW.com is pleased to announce that we've selected our new warlock and elemental shaman columnists. Many thanks to all who applied, and it's unfortunate that we can only select one person for each position.
For our warlock columnist and master of all things with green fire, we welcome Elias Khoury onto our team. Elias has a strong background in the warlock class, having played a 'lock since December 2005. He's also had his hand in blogging for a while, posting as Jagoex at the Warlock Therapy blog. He has a great deal of knowledge to share, having achieved high ranks in PvP and lots of success in all areas of raiding.
Matt Sampson is our new elemental shaman columnist. Matt has done a shedload of theorycrafting for the class, and anyone who frequents Elitist Jerks will know him as Binkenstein. He also brings to the site his extensive raiding and PvP experience. We're pleased to have him and his expertise on our team and look forward to all the help and advice he'll be able to give to shamans.
Please join us in welcoming these two great additions to our staff! You'll be seeing the first editions of their columns soon™.

So, Elias...any thoughts on mages?
Duulket Jul 9th 2010 11:09AM
Way to start the war early.

What can I say? I'm a sucker for a good feud.
Erzfiend Jul 9th 2010 12:26PM
First thing I thought of, too. I've been missing the warlock column, but more importantly I want to see the war rage on.

Quoted from his blog:
"And really, if I wanted to play a Mage, I would have already cut off my genitals and rolled one"
we have found a new champion!!!! :D

Welcome aboard the Good Ship Magehate!

*resists impulse to make joke about mages' inability to receive wedgies whilst wearing dresses*
Shade Jul 9th 2010 1:58PM
Locks wear the same dresses, Basil :)
Thearchermage Jul 9th 2010 2:15PM
It's a KILT
Grokmar Jul 9th 2010 11:08AM
Awesome! I credit Bink for helping me become a better shaman. Can't wait for his column to start!
CiM Jul 9th 2010 11:46AM
Agreed, and welcome Binkenstein!

What happened to the current lock writer?
Duulket Jul 9th 2010 11:11AM
Archmage Pants sheeped him and threw him in the Maelstrom.
FireMaster Jul 9th 2010 11:45AM
Not, Mr. Pants wouldn't have such power or courage ;)
Duulket Jul 9th 2010 11:55AM
It doesn't matter who did we still give credit to Archmage Pants.
Xano Jul 9th 2010 1:02PM
All joking aside, I would like to hear from the columnist what happened.

"After giving us some great warlock (and mage!) entertainment, WoW.com 'lock columnist Dominic Hobbs is heading off to focus on other things. All the staff wishes him the best of luck!"
