Esas notas son falsas.

En primer lugar no hay nada oficial en la página web ni siquiera los test realm están activos.

Inclusive www.worldofraids.com cerro el post indicando que esas notas son falsas.

Es fake por una simple razon, las arenas de 2 con todos esos cooldowns moririan y a Blizzard no le conviene para nada perder las arenas de 2 con la plata que gana con los invitacionales y el soporte que se esta ganando quieranlo o no de los pro-gamers en general.
