So you wanna know how Tim Walz plays World of Warcraft? Me too, honestly. First thing I did was grab my coffee and Google “Tim Walz WoW character” like a normal person. Didn’t find squat. Zero. Nada. Just news about Minnesota policies.

Stalking the Game Channels
Jumped on Reddit and WoW forums next, typing “Governor Walz” into every search bar. Found one old thread where some dude claimed Walz rolled Horde back in Wrath of the Lich King days. Couldn’t verify it though – felt like fishing for trolls.
Checked Twitch next. Searched “WalzGaming” and similar junk usernames for livestreams. All dead accounts or random kids. Seriously considered tweeting at Walz’s official account asking his mains and alts. Decided against it – didn’t wanna be that weirdo.
Breaking News Approach
- Dug through Minnesota local newspaper archives online
- Skimmed gaming convention appearance records from 2015-2020
- Even called my cousin who works at Blizzard’s PR department
Cousin laughed his ass off. Said politicians never use real names and always make privacy agreements. Total dead end.
Observations & Theories
Here’s what I actually know for sure:

- Walz admitted playing “online games” during lockdown interviews
- Never specified WoW but mentioned “orcs” once in 2021 speech
- Staffers say he references “raid nights” when declining evening events
My best guess? Dude’s probably a casual player. No hardcore mythic raiding for governors. Maybe plays Alliance on Moonguard or something chill. Logs in after vetoing bills to kill boars for an hour.
Honestly? We’ll never know unless he streams from the governor’s mansion. And let’s be real – that ain’t happening during election season.
