Humor / Meme Shoutout to that Warlock that yoinked Ashbringer from the last Naxx of TBC

Post image

That Warlock in StaySafe’s last Naxx of TBC that yoinked Ashbringer a couple years ago, I guess he was playing the long game because in a few months it will be useable in the Mists of Pandaria pre-patch.

I hate that it happened to Staysafe, but I absolutely love that it happened.

Edit: we need a “where is he now?” on Zvardikuz. Are you still out there ready to execute the final step of your master plan?

u/InstancePlastic420 Mar 03 '25

I hate that it happened to Staysafe

just gonna assume (and hope) you haven't followed any of staysafe's content since this video 😭

u/BrandonJams Mar 03 '25

I don’t personally but I know he’s not into WoW anymore and has gone down the right-wing rabbit hole. Not for me lol

u/DesMephisto Mar 04 '25

more like always has been. The staysafe you liked was just as much of a nazi as he is now.

More like you're hurt by the downvotes since you can't leave the thread but instead have to repeat over and over that you don't care about him being racist. We get it, you're not cool, now hush and move on

WHAAAT??? Nooooo I have big manly masculine skin, it’s the thickest skin you ever saw! You wish your skin was as thick as me!! You’re jealous REEEEEE

yeah dude can save a ton of time/energy by just saying im a nazi

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

lol I didn’t even know about any of that until this thread, dude. He made WoW content that I watched once upon a time. I’m not writing a biography on the dude and I have no clue what he’s up to these days. Yall just love to assume and attack instead of using any kind of common sense lol

You're the only one crying bud. You sound like a snowflake getting upset that nobody likes your favorite player anymore.

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

Haha more assumptions. I watched wow content he made once upon a time. I’m laughing at the ridiculous lynchmob forming because I didn’t do a background search on him before commenting on this thread. Reddit is quite the circus and you’re just another one of the clowns

Politics is their life, not mine 🤷‍♂️

"I'm either part of a protected class where I'm not going to be personally affected by the shitty things about to happen in the country, or I'm too stupid to realize how bad things are going to get for me because I prioritize twitch streams and videogames"

11

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

No just more along the lines of “I don’t keep up with the political views of internet personalities that have come and gone nor do I do background checks on them before commenting on funny videos about them that get reposted on Reddit” you want so badly for this to be something it just isn’t

u/dezdly Mar 04 '25

Are you upset because someone isn’t glued to every political update you freaks pine for every single day. Nah dude the world’s not ending but sure stay glued to the nonsense.

u/Brilliant_Cup_8903 Mar 03 '25

Yeah it's wild that people don't like Nazis, right?

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

Yeah it’s wild that people wouldn’t follow the political views of a streamer from half a decade ago right?

Mmmm keep moving those goalposts, it's so good.

Following politics and looking into the political views of Internet personalities of old are not the same thing. It’s tragically embarrassing for you to be unable to separate the two

9

u/LoLFlore Mar 04 '25

Why is he "of old"

Is it because of the loss of viewers, due to his political views?

2

u/Splyc Mar 04 '25

I use the term because he used to stream WoW content and doesn’t anymore and since this is a WoW content post about a years old WoW content clip in the Classic WoW subreddit? Y’all want this to be a political thing and for me it’s just a nostalgic video of an iconic moment that happened in Classic history.

To be clear, it’s a video about a sword in a videogame. Try to establish a little perspective in your life. You don’t need to turn every little thing you see into a political theater of war.

Wait what happened to stay safe, I stopped watching him on twitch awhile ago, but I stop watching a lot of people.

u/CDMzLegend Mar 03 '25

Man was always a right wing neo Nazi he is just open about it now

u/Uzeless Mar 03 '25

Got outed as a nazi when somebody posted screenshots of his discord featuring swastikas and a lot of him calling people the funny n-word.

10

u/AdventurousAd2453 Mar 03 '25

He stopped gaming and only covers politics these days.

15

u/thebohster Mar 04 '25

Well a bit more than that. Screenshots from his discord leaked that were a bit unsavory to say the least.

u/hptorchsire Mar 03 '25

Holy shit, I just checked his channel. I had no idea. Those view counts are insane.

You could say....

He went the way of Asmongold

That has to be sarcasm... or you're just really dumb.

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

No idea but based on all the zombie downvotes I’m guessing they voted for worthless politician A and he supports worthless politician B so now I also support worthless politician B in their “politics is my entire identity” minds.

u/Arlune890 Mar 03 '25

Nah he was openly racist on stream

People in his chat comparing an AI Minecraft villager to a Jewish person? Am I missing something or is that the most damning evidence you have?

u/Fit-Percentage-9166 Mar 03 '25

Scroll down and read the other replies in the thread.

StaySafe made a wow guild called POWER and is writing a book on hyperborea. His discord was full of people, including himself, just dropping the hard R and extreme racism.

u/Semen_Salad_Sandwich Mar 03 '25

Writing a book on Hyperborea convinces me the dude is memeing.

Ah that’s unfortunate. He always seemed chill in his WoW content. But I guess it’s easier to adopt a persona when you’re already playing a fantasy game

u/Sargatanas4 Mar 03 '25

Yeah.. I still remember his new years stream of watching memo Dj or whatever. The guy just was funny pushing his little caffeine gum while he spammed shadowbolt.

Now he’s a turd. I mean I guess he was a turd then we just didn’t know it. Feelsbadman.

u/Dabmiral Mar 03 '25

More like saying the n word in discord and dog whistles to historical German leaders. Google is free.

Why would I randomly think to google about him to find it out in the first place. Common sense could be common in your life too

60

u/less_concerned Mar 03 '25

Is this a joke? People asked what he did and you spoke up with assumptions, then when you get corrected you're like "why would i look that up"

Literally, unironically, you are part of the problem

u/Dabmiral Mar 03 '25

They know what they’re doing, or they are the cart wrangler at the grocery store. Don’t bother trying to talk to such a deranged piece of shit.

It's less that and more that he's been a racist and Nazi sympathiser for a long time. it all resurfaced and he got banned.

Saying that I didn’t follow someone who made WoW content once they ceased making WoW content is weird? What a reasonable statement /s

u/Jakcris10 Mar 03 '25

I didn’t get my copy of the script from the hive mind at Reddit that I now actually hate him.

No the second half. But good bluff 😘

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

It’s not weird at all. It just hurt your feelings because it’s mocking people like you.

u/Jakcris10 Mar 03 '25

Very Defensive and weird.

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

Again, neither of those things. Just personally offensive to you because it hit too close to home. But spin your own delusional narrative as you need to in order to cope.

u/Jakcris10 Mar 03 '25

I do! They responded acting as if I was responding to the first half of their comment. When in fact we were clearly both aware that it was the second half.

They were bluffing in their attempt to make their initial response seem less unhinged and weird in retrospect. It didn’t work. Hence “good bluff 😘”.

lol what? I talk about WoW on the WoW subreddit. If that’s “sad” to you then idk what to tell ya.

Bro Staysafe is a baby-back-bitch. Nobody should ever feel bad about that happening to him.

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

Idk man, I’ve suffered through too much personal loot heartache in my time playing. You can’t not feel a little sympathy watching it be lost to a warlock just to sit on for 3 years and xmog his felguard knowing you could be rocking the mog all the way through WOLK. It’s funny, but it’s tragic at the same time lol

42

u/madpacifist Mar 03 '25

He's an actual white supremacist. He now streams on Kik.

-13

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

That’s unfortunate and I didn’t know about any of that. Apparently the expectation around here is that you do a Google background search on any streamer you used to watch back in the day just to make sure they didn’t do anything bad before empathizing with them for losing the sword in such a devastatingly hilarious circumstance 6 years ago

33

u/Jakcris10 Mar 03 '25

I mean… nobody expects that. They just pointed it out and you went on a rant about groupthink and the unreasonable expectations of Reddit.

Nobody’s mocking you know your ignorance. They’re mocking your for your unhinged defensive screeching.

u/hraycroft95 Mar 03 '25

I loved it. Dude was always a douche and watching him melt down over a piece of loot was fucking hilarious

u/Splyc Mar 03 '25

I mean, idk why you would have open rolling to begin with. If anything, the warlock was amongst the more legit rolls since everyone else was going to just goldgate it and turn a profit. I’d be more pissed at the shamans who rolled even tho they lost lol

u/hraycroft95 Mar 03 '25

Yeah he did it to himself there. I mean it's one of the most iconic weapons ever it probably would have made anyone crash out like he did

He was saying that about the streamer, not the person commenting.

4

u/Uzeless Mar 03 '25

He is not. Stay safe had some pictures posted from his discord where he wrote some nazi shit and spammed the n-word.

One of the nazi things are 88, a common nazi dog whistle stemming from the 8th letter of the alphabet H.

88 = HH = Heil Hitler

Now that it has been mansplained can you stop being weird?

u/madpacifist Mar 03 '25

88 stands for HH (Heil Hitler). It's a common Neo-Nazi emblem.

but, it's a purple-legendary in spirit with it's famously small droprate.

StaySafe is a Nazi. It’s not a meme or an exaggeration his discord is literally for white supremacists. His initials are SS on purpose.
