So we’ve seen quite a few deaths in Classic Hardcore so far, but this particular wipe may just beat them all. This Korean group had a really bad time in Zul’Gurub, and managed to execute the perfect formation… for death.

Venoxis really only has one deadly mechanic to him in phase 1, but before getting into what exactly happened, let’s just take a look at this pretty shocking pull, first spotted by esuvii.
