My favorite emote and the best time to use it

July 21, 2011 By Garwulf 8 Comments

This is entry #18 in theย 30 days of WarCraftย series of articles.

I typically don’t use emotes all that often, but there is one I quite enjoy to use on occasion…

Flag of Ownership

That is hands-down, my favorite emote.

Of course, the graphic is even better…

Flag of Ownership

No one wants to be on the receiving end of that…

This nice screenshot example is a few years old, back when the worm was one of my go-to PvP pets, so don’t get any funny ideas about using a worm in Cataclysm-era BGs. ๐Ÿ˜‰

For those of you unaware of this amusing little emote and in-game item, what I’m referring to is the Flag of Ownership. It’s a loot item obtainable through the WoW Trading Card Game.

A few years back, my wife had bought me a couple of packs to throw in my Christmas stocking. Lucky me… I happened to pull an Owned! loot card from one of the four packs. I didn’t really know what it was when I pulled it, but judging by the gold scratch-off strip on the back of the card, I knew it was probably some fun in-game item. ‘Fun’ is an understatement.

I could have sold this thing for around $80 on ebay, but I decided to keep it instead. I’m glad I did. The flag has come out many times in the past — helping me to humble and harass the many asshats I’ve encountered in BGs and arena over the years. It really gets under a player’s skin, because I’ve found that once I’ve planted it (always for good reason), the plantee usually makes repeated attempts at redemption. It is easily the most humiliating thing to do to another player in all of WoW. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

As far as the best time to use it… I usually reserve it for lessons in humility. If a player keeps trying to get the best of me and repeatedly fails, then I like to drive my flag into him so he’s fully aware who’s wearing the daddypants. These are usually Rogues and Ret Paladins. For some reason, they are a very stubborn lot — refusing to acknowledge defeat. They also seem to hate hunters with a passion… go figure. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Occasionally I like to look for the one horde guy in the BG who’s running around with a healbot – wrecking everything in his path – with zero deaths. Once they’ve fallen, I occasionally like to let them know that ‘Garwulf was here’. These are usually Warriors and Death Knights.

For a cheap laugh, it’s also fun to throw it down on a player who’s taking a dirt nap after being on the losing end of an 8 to 1. I don’t do this too often, but when someone has just been brutally ‘Owned!’, you have to recognize it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

What about you guys… what are some of your favorite emotes..? ๐Ÿ˜€

The Flag of Ownership

Flag of Ownership

Theย Flag of OwnershipFlag of Ownership WoW TCG Loot… It’s too much fun.

My wife threw a couple of packs of the World of Warcraft TCG in my Christmas stocking and I was lucky enough to pull the Owned!Owned Loot Card WoW TCG loot card from one of them. I had never bought any of these packs before, but I knew about the loot cards. Being a former hard-core sports card collector, I knew an insert card when I saw one. What I didn’t know was just how cool it was…

I haven’t used it a ton, but Flag of OwnershipFlag of Ownership WoW TCG Loot is a blast to use in battlegrounds or any other PvP situation. It plants a flag with the “Thumbs-Down” icon on it into your victim, and then announces that you’ve “Planted the Flag of Ownership into (insert victim’s name here)”. It’s a barrel-of-monkeys for sure.

I planted it into a Mage in Warsong Gulch who tried to 2v1 me with their Lock teammate and lost, then came back to 1v1 me while I was eating by the graveyard. They lost again with me beginning the fight at about 50% with no cooldowns. I couldn’t resist at that point. Needless to say… after planting my flag, I became their Huckleberry. After res’ing the 2nd time, the Mage came after me with a vengeance and dropped me. It was close, and I was only at about 20% to begin the fight, but I guess I deserved it after my unsportsmanlike taunt. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Update: Flag of OwnershipFlag of Ownership WoW TCG Loot has been reduced to only a 1 min cooldown, down from fifteen. I highly recommend you obtain one of these. It greatly enhances ones enjoyment of the game. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Owned!

December 26, 2008 By Garwulf Leave a Comment

Stocking stuffers comprised much of the gift giving this year at our household. We elected to focus on the children and keep the adult gift exchange to a bare minimum. One of the things my wife did was dump a few booster packs of WoW TCG Drums of WarWoW TCG Drums of War in my stocking. Although I’d never purchased any of these before, I did know about the tabards and some of the other cool things you can randomly pull from these packs.

Owned!Being a former avid collector of Football and Basketball cards, I know a rare card when I see one. My all-time pull was an autographed Scottie Pippen card that was numbered out of 100. This was back in the day before ebay was king, and I sold it via an internet newsgroup for seven hundred bucks. While not as awesome as that, I came across a card that looked like it must be pretty special. I was right, because later on that day I Googled it to find that it sells for anywhere from fifty to seventy dollars on ebayWoW TCG Owned Loot Card.

The card turned out to be the Owned! loot card from the Drums of War series. It has a code that grants your character a PvP taunt ability. I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but apparently you can plant a flag next to your fallen victim after you’ve defeated them in a duel. Too bad Hunters just got whacked with the nerf bat. ๐Ÿ™ Maybe someone will be gracious enough to let me beat them so I can see the animation in action. ๐Ÿ˜‰
