They stormed through the entire Heroic raid on the NA servers in just seven hours instead!
World First Gnarlroot on Mythic

Within the first hour of the Council of Dreams encounter, Instant Dollars secured their second World First of the season. After a series of seven pulls, the guild effectively brought the Council to its knees and is now poised to progress to the next challenge, Volcoross. The question now is: can they secure three World Firsts in a single day?
World First Volcoross on Mythic
And they did it! Instant Dollars got Volcoross down in only one pull. Instant Dollars swiftly conquered Volcoross in a single pull. With this achievement, the guild stands at 4/9, setting an impressive pace at the forefront of the race.

Meanwhile, Method is making strides with 10 Heroic Larodar takedowns and 6 Smolderon conquests, but they’re gearing up for the challenges that lie ahead.
What’s catching everyone’s attention is the cautious approach to Mythic attempts. Only a handful of guilds have dared to venture into the unknown, and it’s no surprise. This tier’s beefy 39-item level increase is throwing an immediate DPS and HPS check at even the seasoned raiders.
The second day of raiding is wrapping up, and so are the splits.
November 16: Day 3

Not to be outdone, Honolulu swiftly followed suit, securing the World Third position.
Adding to the global competition, three Danish guilds, Sabotage, Revoke, and Revolutionist, are currently vying for supremacy on Igira. Meanwhile, the top guilds have diverged in their progression paths, with Honolulu opting for the Council and Conspiracy focusing on Volcoross.
Multiple guilds, including Revoke, showcased their expertise by conquering the Mythic version of the Gnarlroot encounter, pushing the total count to an impressive 16 takedowns. The ongoing split strategies among elite guilds promise an enthralling spectacle for viewers, with anticipation building for further Mythic showdowns later in the day.
Despite initial expectations of a swift victory, Conspiracy faced unexpected resistance from the fire viper boss, resulting in a heart-stopping 1% wipe. Undeterred, they remain poised for redemption in future attempts.

The esports saga continues to unfold as Honolulu secures yet another accolade, achieving World 2nd in dismantling the Council of Dreams. Soon after, they also claimed the World 3rd title on Volcoross by swiftly dismantling the snake. This victory propels them into second place overall, with a commendable 4/9 progression.

World First Larodar on Mythic
Instant Dollars continues to unsettle their competitors with another World First. Undeterred by fatigue, the guild achieves yet another milestone by clinching a World First on Larodar after an intensive 24 pulls. With an imposing 6/9 progression, Instant Dollars’ next objective will be Smolderon.
We are only at the third day of the race and 6/9 bosses have fallen down. The Internet is erupting with contemplation about the potential brevity of this raid tier. Questions linger on whether the top guilds, in their meticulous preparations, might be over-preparing, allocating excessive time to splits that could be streamlined for more immediate progression.
