The Dragon Soul Challenge

The Dragon Soul Challenge

Hot on the heels of the recent live raid race between Vodka and Method, Athene is back with a bigger, more-ambitious new challenge: bring together four guilds from around the world in a race against each other and the clock to see which guild can complete the Dragon Soul Heroic raid first. The previous contest drew 250,000 viewers and raised $25,000 USD for Save the Children, and organizers are hopeful that this event can do even more.

You can join viewers from all four corners of the globe on Saturday, May 12, starting at 6pm CEST to cheer for your favorite team from among:

Blood Legion (USA)
Exorsus (Russia)
Paragon (Europe)
Stars (China)

We will have the video stream embedded for you right here once the event goes live on Saturday.

I love community stuff like this, and also Blizzard supporting Athene with the charity stuff. Shows a great closeness within this game!
