Paladins News

“Listen up my flag-waving, freedom-loving friends - the 4th of July is about a lot more than just chili dogs, apple pie, and a breathtaking display of patriotic pyrotechnics. It’s also about...wait, go back - the 4th of July is DEFINITELY about excessive expressions of explosive capability! Which is why you can join me - Freegle Drogoz - and my trusty ‘Merican Mustang Mount this holiday for a true red, white, and blue Paladins experience! Your enemies are definitely going to be seeing the rockets’ red glare when we face them together, and it’s a self-evident truth if there ever was one that the ‘Merican Mustang is the hottest ride since the first American muscle rolled off the assembly lines.” - Freegle Drogoz
