Mythic Scalecommander Sarkareth in WoW Dragonflight Defeated
We know the winner of the Road to World First of the Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible raid. Americans from Liquid defeated the Scalecommander boss Sarkareth on mythic difficulty. The second place belongs to the Europeans.
Each time, Road to World First is the biggest event among World of Warcraft players. For several years, the main rivals have been two organizations: Liquid and Echo, which alternatly have taken the first place in this peculiar race. In the case of the Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible raid, the American team came out on top.

Liquid needed only 114 attempts to take down Scalecommander Sarkareth, and that's an impressive achievement when you look at the competition. Echo won second place, but needed as many as 141 approaches. On the other hand, Method, currently in 3rd position, is still fighting its opponent with a best attempt of 17.29% of the boss' life points and 131 attempts to its credit.
Guild Master and at the same time guild's Raid Leader Liquid Maximum pointed out that the raid was relatively free of various errors, which in the past quite often happened during the whole event. At the same time he commented on the topic of balancing Aberrus, because there are discussions here as well:
"I see a lot of talk about the inadequate balancing of the raid. Personally, I would like the whole thing to be a bit more difficult, but I think there are two main factors: the item upgrade system and the short battles. Sarkereth is a boss with a clash lasting 7 minutes and 30 seconds. If the time was more than 11 minutes with an additional phase, the whole thing would take more than 200 approaches with many days of progress."
For professional teams, the raid progression adventure is just about to end, but for average players, the adventure on the mythical level of Aberrus will last for months to come.. Watching Road to World First can be a very good way to brush up on tactics and playing with different classes and specializations. It remains to wait until the next raid, which will probably appear in about six months.
