Horde takes Monday as Stranglethorn Vale opens and closes the day

Ron Burgundoom, live from a folding chair in Stranglethorn Vale, wearing a jazz flute on a lanyard like a medal. The Horde had Monday in Americas <PvP>, and the biggest fights belonged to Stranglethorn Vale. The Brawl at the Ruins of Zul'Kunda went decisively to the Horde in the morning. The Grom'gol Hunters' Skirmish at Nesingwary's Expedition went the same way in the evening, and the day was bracketed.

Desolace was the busiest ground. The Horde took the Skirmish at Sargeron narrowly and the Skirmish at the Kodo Graveyard decisively, but the Alliance answered with the Sargeron Scuffle and the Magram Village Scuffle, both narrow. The Alliance also took the Darrow Hill Scuffle in Hillsbrad Foothills, decisively. The Skirmish at Ironbeard's Tomb in the Wetlands ended in a stalemate. The Horde won the Raid on Moonbrook in Westfall, and the Northfold Manor Scuffle in Arathi Highlands. In Europe <PvP>, the Moonbrook Morning Raid went to the Horde.

Brewing Pain led the guilds. Metus Dreadfang topped the Horde killers, Malakai Makáissön topped the Alliance, and Goro Forever healed best for the Horde. The Horde has the day.

Stay classy, Azeroth.
