I was there as well.
That wasn't WoW players, that was /pol/ on 4chan coopting the Egyptian God of Darkness, Kek, as said god is depicted as a frog. Since Pepe the frog is/was so big it was declared a sort of meme magic/divine providence and they turned it into Kekistan.

Kek used on the internet far predates and overshadow's /pol/'s coop, if you see someone using it they're far more likely to be using it as a stand-in for lol than to dog whistle being alt-right.
