Crown of the Cosmos defeated!

The Race to World First (RWF) for World of Warcraft: Midnight Season 1 is exploding right now. Mythic difficulty for The Voidspire (6 bosses) and The Dreamrift (1 boss) launched on March 24, 2026, and guilds are already treating the seven available bosses like a sprint. The final raid, March on Quel’Danas (2 bosses), still locks until March 31 — so right now it’s all about stacking gear, practice, and pure bragging rights before the real boss, Midnight Falls (L’ura), decides the Season 1 champion.

But make no mistake: the early Hall of Fame entries matter, and one guild is pulling away in spectacular fashion.

Current Progress (as of March 27, 2026 — roughly 72 hours in)

Team Liquid (US-Illidan) is straight-up dominating with 7 out of 9 Mythic bosses killed — the only guild to hit this insane milestone. They’ve been splitting rosters like pros, farming both raids at once, and racking up World First after World First:

• World First Mythic Crown of the Cosmos (Voidspire finale) — just downed after a blazing 18-pull grind.
• World First Mythic Lightblinded Vanguard (fifth boss) in 52 pulls.
• World First Mythic Vaelgor & Ezzorak (fourth boss) in a ridiculous 5 pulls.
• World First Mythic Fallen-King Salhadaar (third boss) in only 2 pulls.
• World First Mythic Chimaerus, the Undreamt God (solo Dreamrift boss) in 3 pulls.

Liquid’s split strategy has turned the opening days into a loot-and-momentum machine. They’re already sitting on a massive gear advantage heading into next week’s final raid.

The rest of the pack is still hungry but clearly chasing:

• Echo, Method, FatSharkYes, and Incentive are all locked at 5/9 or 6/9 and pushing hard on the late Voidspire bosses.
• Nurfed still owns the very first two World Firsts (Imperator Averzian and Vorasius) but has slipped down the overall leaderboard as the big dogs accelerate.

Dozens of guilds have cleared the early bosses and are now throwing everything at the mid-to-late Voidspire fights. The pace is blistering — this tier is tuned for speed, not week-long roadblocks.

Why This Race Feels Electric

Three separate raids. A full week delay on the finale. Full-roster splits allowed from hour one. It’s created the most chaotic, multi-front RWF we’ve seen in years. Top teams are literally running two 20-player groups at the same time — one in Voidspire, one in Dreamrift — and the results are showing. Blizzard has already dropped hotfixes (health buffs on late bosses and class tweaks), proving they’re watching the firehose of progress in real time.

What’s Coming Next

• Liquid’s next move: full clear of everything available and then pure optimization for Quel’Danas.
• Everyone else is scrambling to finish Crown of the Cosmos and stack every piece of loot possible before March 31.
• The true Season 1 World First can’t happen until the final two bosses (Belo’ren and Midnight Falls) open — so the next four days are all about building the biggest edge imaginable.

Expect more drama, more listen-ins, and possibly more tuning if the pace stays this ridiculous.
