V tokratni epizodi smo se pogovarjali z Jakom Gornikom, ki nastopa tudi pod umetniškim imenom DJ Shark. Dotaknili smo se njegovih začetkov v elektronski glasbi ter festivalov in dogodkov, ki jih je organiziral. Jakovi najodmevnejši projekti zajemajo Meet Me festival, ki se je odvijal na letališču Divača, Disconautico, ki je desetletje nazaj v treh dneh na slovensko obalo privabila preko 100.000 obiskovalcev in aktualni ljubljanski pop-up klub Kurzschluss v okviru katerega sta moči združili ekipi agencij Forever Moments in Pristop. Kdo je Sharku pomagal do prvega nastopa, kako mu je v Miamiju uspelo prodati njegovo prvo skladbo in kje se je zataknilo, da se Ultra Europe ne odvija pod njegovim okriljem v Istri? Vsi odgovori se nahajajo v deveti epizodi.

For videos, audios, and all things CtR, join us online at http://converttoraid.com   This week, Sharku and Gizmo join the crew as we make a BIG announcement and talk about Warcraft and other Blizzard games!   The Warcraft movie has been released internationally, but still 10 days away from it’s launch in the U.S. How do box office numbers, internet reviews and the crew’s opinions stack up to help viewers expectations? What will be the real teller of whether or not this movie is a success?   Overwatch is the Blizzard’s fastest selling console game (in the UK), which shouldn’t be any surprise. The guys will go behind the numbers a bit and talk about OW’s first competitive tournament along the way. What lies in store for Blizzard’s newest game?   Plus, Heroes of the Storm turns 1, Hearthstone tournaments go legit, your questions and more in this first installment of The Battlenet News!   Follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/converttoraid or individually: Pat Krane -- http://twitter.com/PatKrane Dairies -- http://twitter.com/BoredMind Sharku -- http://twitter.com/Sharku_CTR Gizmo -- http://twitter.com/Gizmozord

For videos, audios, and all things CtR, join us online at http://converttoraid.com   John Horstmann and Sharku join the crew for this week’s show (mainly on Overwatch).   Overwatch went live this week, so the guys jump straight into the Battlenet News for stories surrounding the launch. The joys, the salt, and the community interest in this fantastic game have been incredible over the last few days, so the crew dives in to discuss many different aspects of Overwatch.   Since the last CtR, World of Warcraft’s next expansion has gone into beta development, allowing even more people to see what’s in store for Legion. While this episode doesn’t go into any depth on the gameplay, the guys are planning future shows as we head toward the August 30th launch.   One item did stick out this last week, as Ion “Watcher” Hazzikostas took to the forums in another Developer Watercooler discussion on PvP gear in Legion. Instead of resilience or PvP Power, the devs are making PvE gear and PvP gear THE SAME. How will this affect those who have chosen one aspect over the other, or does it even matter? Will this finally help WoW PvP stand on even footing with raiding?   Plus the Warcraft movie hype is real, Chromie lands in the Nexus, and Diablo 3 turns 4 and more!   Follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/converttoraid or individually: Pat Krane -- http://twitter.com/PatKrane Dairies -- http://twitter.com/BoredMind John -- http://twitter.com/KickedTripod Sharku -- http://twitter.com/Sharku_CTR

For videos, audios, and all things CtR, join us online at http://converttoraid.com   This week, Pat and Dairies are joined by Tovo and Sharku to talk WoW and ALL THE GAMES.   Ion “Watcher” Hazzikostas, Lead Game Developer for World of Warcraft, talked with Jesse Cox on Twitch. In it, he announced that Legion alpha is over, and that the beta will begin this week! He also discussed questing, the leveling experience, Mythic+ dungeons and more. The crew takes a look at the interview and puts their own spins on how Legion is shaping up for the late August release.   Plus, Overwatch beta ends, StarCraft 2’s patch 3.3 is coming soon with some new features, Heroes of the Storm will revamp ranked play, and a whole lot more in this jam packed show!   Follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/converttoraid or individually: Pat Krane -- http://twitter.com/PatKrane Dairies -- http://twitter.com/BoredMind Tovo -- http://twitter.com/LoSGaming Sharku -- http://twitter.com/Sharku_CTR

For videos, audios, and all things CtR, join us online at http://converttoraid.com This week, John Horstmann from Well Met and The Payload podcasts (at http://blizzpro.com) joins the crew with Sharku. While technical difficulties messed with the last show, there is now a veritable smorgasbord of news to discuss! Legion, the next expansion for World of Warcraft was announced to launch on August 30, 2016. Both cheers and salt can be heard from the community, and the guys discuss their own opinions on the matter. J. Allen Brack took to the forums to discuss the shutting down of the Nostalrius legacy servers and mentioned the idea of “pristine servers” that would, in essence, remove bonus XP and other “easy buttons” while still playing the game in its current state. Is this enough to address what Nostalrius members were after? What can Blizzard do that would make sense for both the company and the community? Hearthstone launched its new expansion “Whispers of the Old Gods” this week. The crew talks about the cards, the expansion and more as they try to figure out the new meta. Plus, Blizzcon tickets sell out (as always), StaCraft 2 players arrested for game fixing, the Overwatch hype train is at full speed, Diablo Season 6 hits this week, Tracer lands in the Nexus and a lot more!

Blizzcon 2016 has been announced, and will be held November 4-5 in the Anaheim Convention Center. The real question is, can they fit everything in in just two days? Mythic+ dungeons are being tested for the next expansion of World of Warcraft. Keystones will be able to make these dungeons more difficult, even adding up to two different affixes to up the ante. If these work like the developers want, could these new dungeons put raiding in jeopardy, or will they simply bolster the ranks? Plus, competitive play comes to Overwatch, Heroes of the Dorm recap, clarification on Legion’s Class Order Missions, and a whole lot more!

This week, Gizmo (from the Lords of the Storm podcast) and Sharku join the crew! Everyone at Blizzard is coming back to work after the holiday break, but there have been some bold decisions for the new year! It's now easier than ever to upgrade your legendary ring. Upgrades can be bought with Valor on top of Archimonde kills! But what does this mean for your average player? Activision Blizzard scooped most of the assets from Major League Gaming before the end of 2015. What will this mean for Activision Blizzard's new eSports Division (and the possible fans at home)? Also, what steps do they need to take to become the "ESPN of eSports?" Plus, Moose Mount Runs, games of the year, a bunch of your questions and a ton of good times. Enjoy!

This week Mick and Sharku join the CtR crew to talk about the latest Blizzard news. Blizzard released a whole bunch of WoW on the world, opening up the Legion beta for data mining and allowing streamers, friends and family to play an alpha build! The alpha build features the Demon Hunter and not much else, including character creation and the starting zone in Mardun. It's a throwback to Outland and has a familiar feel for those that have played through The Burning Crusade. This isn't much different from what they offered at Blizzcon this year, but it is something new for players to see over the long Thanksgiving weekend. Meanwhile, beta data has exploded all over the internet, with tons of new items, spells, talents, strings, and more... all without anyone being able to play it. While there's a lot of information out there, players still don't know exactly how the game will feel. And while much of this initial build may change during the beta process, the CtR crew give an overview of the new talents systems (for both PvE and PvP), scenarios and more. Plus Moose Mounts, that Fel Reaver noise, Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm news, your questions and lots of laughs. Enjoy!

Tovo from Line of Sight Gaming and Sharku join this week’s crew as we make that final push toward Anaheim! With less than two weeks until Blizzcon 2015, Blizzard HQ isn’t dropping a ton of news. But the news we do have is incredible, especially if you like esports.  Activision Blizzard (the parent company) is creating a new eSports Division in the company, separate from both Activision and Blizzard Entertainment games. On top of that, they’ve hired top talent in key positions to help grow esports in the company. Steve Bornstein (former CEO of ESPN and NFL Network) joins as chairman while Mike Sepso (co-founder of Major League Gaming) joins as a senior VP. We assume that this means only good things for all of Blizzard’s newest games, but will this help or hurt raiding in World of Warcraft? Patch 6.2.3 is on the PTR, and there may have been some things we didn’t cover as well as we should have, like cross realm Mythic raiding! But will all of the changes in the next patch be able to extend the life of Warlords of Draenor until the next expansion? In the Battlenet News, OVERWATCH closed beta is out! The guys will give you their first impressions about the heroes, the gameplay, and the hype train that is Blizzard’s latest IP.    Follow us on Twitter: @ConverttoRaid @PatKrane @LoS_Gaming @Sharku_CTR Also, find all the videos and audios and much more at converttoraid.com

This week, Tattva (from LoS Gaming) and Sharku join the crew!   The face of raiding may be changing as Blizzard announced nerfs to 6 encounters on Normal mode Hellfire Citadel this last week. In some cases mechanics were tuned down so that casual guilds didn’t have to worry as much about personal responsibility as much, and on other bosses Blizzard removed mechanics altogether. Is this a case of tuning the encounter so that more people can see it, or could this be telling of what’s to come for normal modes of the future? The Road to Blizzcon divided over the last weekend as we saw tournaments for both the Asia-Pacific region held in Taipei and the EU region hosted in Prague. The crew will give you some of the action and predict how well some of these competitors will stack up against their American counterparts. In the Battlenet News, the guys go over some of the new stuff in Starcraft’s Patch 3.0! A new user interface and Whispers of Oblivion missions are now available on live. In Heroes of the Storm, Lt. Morales is now live along with a new Try Mode so that you can test heroes better than before.   Plus your questions, a bunch of silliness, and much more!   Follow us on Twitter @Converttoraid @PatKrane @BoredMind @LoS_Gaming @Sharku_CTR

This week, returning friends Gizmozord (Lords of the Storm Podcast) and Sharku join the CtR crew! Top World of Warcraft raiding guild Method saw some roster changes this week as players left to form a new guild, Serenity. Midwinter also lost a couple of their top players to the new guild as well, including their main tank (and friend of the show) Slootbag. What does this mean for the top raiding scene for Legion, and do these moves say anything about the raiding in Warlords of Draenor or WoW in general? The guys discuss it inside. Also, Gamereactor.eu released their Gamescom interview with Ion Hazzikostas and Tom Chilton, and it brought up several interesting questions for our panel. Should expansions be serialized or self-contained (or as raiders, do we care)? Does the progression path look interesting and fun for Legion? And has Blizzard been successful in making the most of their worlds? In the Battlenet News, StarCraft 2 released a cinematic and announced that their next expansion, Legacy of the Void, will be released after Blizzcon on November 10th. Also, a Diablo Q&A from Reddit, a review of Rexxar in Heroes of the Storm, and looking forward to the HotS American Championship this weekend in Las Vegas. Plus your questions, a special show announcement, and much more!   Follow Us on Twitter: The Show - @ConverttoRaid Pat Krane - @PatKrane Dairies - @BoredMind Gizmo - @Gizmozord Sharku - @Sharku_CTR

This week, the guys welcome friend, recent Heroes of the Storm tournament winner, and former raid team member Sharku to the show! Patch 6.2.2 is currently on the PTR and was announced to be heading to the live servers on September 1! Not only will be an update to include PvP mercenary mode and flying, but a moose mount (finally!), changes to Horde racial, Timewalking dungeon loot changes, and the addition of Legendary Ring catch-up quests. There are a few significant class changes also slated for 6.2.2, including buffs for Monks, Shadow Priests, Feral Druids and Protection Warriors. But since we’re deep into the Hellfire Citadel raid (the last of this expansion), is this a case of too little, too late? The crew discusses inside!   And there are many headlines in the Battlenet News too! Hearthstone releases The Grand Tournament expansion, Diablo patch 2.3.0 is now live, and the monk comes to Heroes of the Storm. The guys give you their thoughts and all of these new things and more in another fun episode!

  Sharku is our guest co-host this week once again! Discussion topic: a female gamer wants to know why some female gamers use their sexuality to communicate with people and make others uncomfortable in the process. Our advice question of the week: I’m in a social guild, but sometimes I like to just be by myself and not join in voice chat even though they invite me to. Am I being too hard on myself for feeling guilty that I just like my alone time? Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, Slash Moos, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com. Slash Moo, everybody!

Sharku joins Jules as a special guest host for this episode. Is the brewing backlash against those who identify as gamers a result of years of bullying and discrimination from people who enjoyed these interests as kids? Our question of the week comes from AJ, who feels she is dealing with depression but is afraid to say something to her family because she may scare them.
