Today is the 10th anniversary of Icy Veins. We launched the site on the 21st of March 2011. What a journey it's been! To mark the occasion, we're organizing a huge giveaway with tons of really cool prizes. From extremely rare mounts to US and EU Mythic Nathria runs or epic Blizzard store items and more, there's a lot to win if you celebrate with us. It will run until the 28th of March.

Echo's Own Giveaway

Echo and Magicuz are running a separate giveaway on Twitter, with an extra chance to win a full clear of Mythic Castle Nathria.

What Are The Rules?

• The giveaway starts the moment this post goes live.
• The giveaway ends on the 28th of March at 23:59 Pacific Time. You will no longer be able to enter after that.
• Anyone can enter.
• When entering the giveaway, you region will be inferred from your location. We will contact winners after drawing them to confirm it.
• If you win, we will contact you by email. You have 48 hours to reply, before we pick a different winner.
• If you win #1 prize in EU, you will need to share personal information so we can purchase the items for you on the Blizzard Gear Store and send them to you (the US store has a gift card option, but it appears that the EU one does not).
• The Castle Nathria Mythic runs are on the Horde side. We will cover faction/server transfer costs for Alliance player to do the booster run and then go back to their former server/faction.

Happy Ding Day Icy Veins!

From the very early days I have been a big fan and follower of the site, I remember checking the Zul'Aman guide and it was the best (only?) one around at that time and after that guide, Icy Veins quickly became my first go-to website when it comes to WoW and in time, with many other games. Thanks to you guys I could succeed quite fast in becoming an alt'oholic and learned to stay alive in HotS ;> 

Recently, with the launch of WoW Classic I found the chance to join the ranks too then together we have launched our Instagram and we're going strong in all fronts!

So glad to meet you all and I am truly proud to be a part of the team.
To many successful 10 years! ^^

All the best guys. 

PS

No Twitter account. GL to others then.

That is a really good question. What even really is the purpose of the mythic run? To get some achievement?

Running mythic with a TOP Guild ? I mean basically it is a free CN mythic "boost" where other people pay millions of gold to do that. 😄

(not that i support boosting, but that's what it is, if you are usually not a mythic raider)

But yes i never used Twitter as well and i will never use it, not even for such a nice Give Away. So good luck to the people which have it.

No Twitter, good luck to others though. But cooperating with Echo (ex-Method), eh... Still leaves a bad taste.

I bet the run will look like "You can stay here but please don't touch anything" 🤣

But nonetheless, I don't understand. It's just a run you might not get anything but vault reward from. I understood paying for Mythic Jaina because the mount was there but to pay for doing a mythic for a chance of not getting anything. lel

Pretty bad giveaway format if you are forcing people to do the Twitter one in order to unlock the rest.

[Wildwitch 108]

#1. US servers? Does that mean Canadians can enter?

#2. What if you don't have Twitter and won't get Twitter? Forget it?

[Halock 156]

I like this site. The comments are interesting and usually polite unlike - he-hem - basically the rest of the internet. And the content is pretty on point too.

Keep it up.

I've removed the requirement for a retweet, so that you guys without Twitter can also enter with the other forms of entry. Good luck! 🙂

If you play on the NA servers, then yes. There is Americas, Europe, and Asia - the giveaway is for Europe and Americas server regions.

Happy birthday!

Congrats on the 10 year! 

I'm not a WOW player and don't have any interest (love Warcraft, hate MMO's). I just come here for the Diablo content, so not much point in me entering this contest 😅 

If or when you decide to have a smaller contest with D4 collector's edition as a reward, let us know 😄

A chance at the celebration package could be nice for a Diablo player! Or maybe the store credit to get yourself some amazing D3/D4 merch. I know there are some insanely cool statues on there

Thank you for that! I allready shared the news across guild and Bnet and will update them with that info.

Also maybe it is just a problem on my side, but the Discordlink does not work somehow, allways getting declined message / out of date message. Was a problem on my side 😄
