Pokimane has stepped into World of Warcraft. The MMORPG has a massive fan following in the gaming community and the Twitch streamer looks to experience the charm of its vibrant universe. Months ago, the streamer shared an emotional statement that shed light on how she is still the target of sexist remarks despite being a foremost gaming content creator. Now, Pokimane shared her overwhelming experience as she debuted in World of Warcraft.
Pokimane was welcomed by dedicated fans as she played World of Warcraft for the first time. She wasn’t expecting such a grand welcome and was left smiling ear to ear.

As Pokimane entered the fold and started her journey in World of Warcraft she was met by hundreds of players. At first, the streamer was confused and thought the kneeling people were NPCs in the game. However, her teammates quickly cleared the air and highlighted that they were real players who were bowing down to their queen. “This is so cute“, gushed the streamer as the World of Warcraft clan showed their allegiance to their leader.

Pokimane couldn’t just let the gesture pass and waved to her loyal subjects who gathered to welcome her to World of Warcraft. She wrote “Thank you everyone for your time” to thank her assembled fans to show her gratitude. One player apparently claimed to have missed the birth of her child for this very moment.

Such an overwhelming welcome was unprecedented and Pokiman couldn’t stop saying how nice it felt to be adored by fans like this. Pokimane tried to kneel down herself but her teammates elaborated that a queen shouldn’t be one to bow to anyone. The stillness of her subjects made her think that the players were not near their keyboards, but when she learned that they were paying tribute to her, she just couldn’t stop grinning on the livestream.
The community isn’t done yet
After the clip was shared on social media, fans claimed that a queen deserves nothing but the best. Some others compared the incident with how Asmongold was welcomed by the Final Fantasy 14 community years ago. This fan thinks the queen should now take charge and lead her people to glory.
Pray the queen, love the community!
