[@SomeoneWitSkill]

These people must have no sense of humor, i was busting my ass laughing.

[@jonavuka]

They're pro commentators its their job to keep commentating...

[@SomeoneWitSkill]

jonavuka and who says I was talking about them?

[@furydeath]

well go mic everyone and then you can hear them better

[@nypad5]

The WoW playerbase is from another planet.

[@jeff8253]

Conan could get an A in a school presentation without any preparation lol

[@Navonoders]

18:55 Very effective strategy to force a paladin uhh to use his healing powers, to mitigate the cooldowns.. it's a classic move, it's been around for a long time, but once you get those cooldowns and you've mitigated them, it's time to go to shadow-warrior-stance, or shadow fog, or into blitz.. blitzenhoffen

[@Kavothizzlafduxbfd]

How does this man come up with this BS lol

[@TheAzertjuh]

The two other commentators are so awkward :/

[@glowyrm]

Conan was PERFECT here. He did EXACTLY what he was there to do. The 2 dimwits to either side of him fudged it up. They seem so socially awkward that they couldn't fluidly bounce off of Conan and actually incorporate his banter into their casting. They totally disregarded anything he said and stayed super-serioues the entire time, THAT'S what made it seem bad/weird.

[@Andreazor]

Well said, Glowyrm. The awkwardness came from the other two being stiff as a board. Conan would've been so great together with Day9!

[@munchies508]

Andreazor I feel that Conan casting a series with iNcontroL would have been something

[@glowyrm]

To be fair, after watching it a few times, the guy on the left did try to work with Conan quite a few times so I give him some points.

[@muggedbyapriest]

I completely agree. Don't invite someone like Conan O'Brien if you're not gonna take advantage of his humor or play off of him. Get better announcers.

[@ryownage7349]

Honestly I think they were overwhelmed. Conan was going into so many random places I don’t think they could keep up lmao

[@Sherl0ck221b]

13:18 - 13:32 "You just agreed at something that made no sense." ROFLMAO

[@MrDerpatron3000]

Conan is talking out of his ass so hard. XD

[@TheJimmyDeadman]

As a veteran wow player, nothing he said sounded too out of place

congrats veteran, now get out of your mom's basement and get your own apartment

[@HygreN]

AHAHAHAHA

[@Maxoule22]

even the gorgun juice part ?

[@docrandle]

It's really painful that I can see the complete inability to maintain an actual conversation and just using "Absolutely" because they just want to keep words going.

[@dshim4731]

no idea what's going on in the game, but i came here for conan, and i enjoyed every bit of it.

[@jmaymay1997]

omg this is hilarious, too bad he was paired with the most uncharismatic castors ever

[@mandelbrodt]

Nah the casters were fine. Classic straight man comedy. All Conan remotes are pretty much Conan fooling around with a host/tour-guide/etc. straight man for Conan to bounce off of.

[@SooperBeez]

jesus can these 2 keep saying UMMUMM UMM UMM UMMM UMM UMM, you can tell the difference in speaking skills compared to conan o brien

[@Anthony-df4bs]

that should be obvious. conan is a famous late night talk show host who went to harvard...and he's sitting next to two ADULTS commentating a video game tournament.

[@CARVERitUP]

CONAN NEEDS TO SHOUTCAST A LEAGUE OF LEGENDS GAME LOL

[@TheMidnightPhil]

Bear in mind, guys, that this is for a recurring segment on Conan's show called, "Clueless Gamer." The joke is that Conan _isn't_ a gamer, so things that many of us take for granted are odd and comment-worthy to him. When this makes it onto his show it'll be in the form of a highlight reel. Think of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog's bits.

[@zenosenos8288]

Conan should do this again!

[@Idunhavanamez]

Felt like Conan's apperance wouldve been alot funnier if he casted with Incontrol, Day9, Husky etc. (the casters with the comedy effect).

[@ThoughtJuice]

Intimidating shout... "My father employed it in the mid 70's" haha.

[@loschillyboyz9473]

Conan, “$105,000 which I believe works out be I believe 35 euros due to the weakness of the dollar. “ Lmao!!!

[@mikerotonda6264]

This was one of the funniest things I have ever seen.. he trolled them the whole time... I had an ab workout with how much I laughed. When he said real calmly,. If you're watching this you should move out of your parents house.. I spit my coffee out of nose

[@actualkickmud9413]

Conan sounds just as good BSing as the 2 commentators calling the actual game. It made the segment all the funnier. As someone who doesn't follow pro WoW arena, it looks terrible to watch. The matches are over so quickly and the viewer might as well be watching the life bars on the sides of the screens. The camera angle is bad since there is no spectator mode. The UI was not made to easily watch all the action and it's just a jumbled mess to view.

[@frozone2366]

14:00 what the fuck happened?

[@spence3743]

i couldnt stop laughing the entire time

[@HawkOfGP]

WoW must be one of the worst competitive games out there for the spectator. Simply. Does. Not. Work. But at least Conan is funny.

[@vhaleryanadamant1975]

Yeah because even as a WoW player you don't understand jackshit of what happens bcs of too many spells and effects.

[@jeremyanderson8664]

Conan is the best thing to ever happen to Esports, I laughed my ass off.

[@LightofAllah00]

18:52 One of the funniest shit I've ever watched in my life.

[@frosty2199]

ah yes they brought in the shaman standard move standard move didn't really surprise anybody

[@joseuda5141]

9:40 LOL

[@Arcanon792]

@JeffSherman Well to be fair it's SO boring to watch. SC2 has much better commentators and I think even a layman like Conan might understand what's happening: 2 big armies shooting each other!

[@markanthonyrosallosa8978]

This is just so awkwardly funny...

[@RaixsOreh]

i think the silence of the two other commentators actually made it funnier to me, seeing them trying to handle the man known as Conan just tickles my sides

[@bunnieskitties293]

They need to hire someone who can actually work with talented in banter next time. Poor Conan, being so unappreciated.

[@user-yh4zm4td8z]

"Yes that's true, they brought in the shaman, Standard move, move that didn't surprise anybody really."

[@Rrawr966]

don't want to offend anyone here.. but i wish conan was doing a starcraft or league of legends match.. their casters are way better and i know they would made this a lot more entertaining and less awkward...

[@Dyl482]

shadow father warrior stance lol

[@aldershot8008]

Nothing cringier than than self serious nerds. Those 2 hosts did a HORRIBLE job bouncing off of conan.

[@nhattkunn1594]

God He's doing so well with the game he doesn't know. I wanna be talking like him with such a humor and confident

[@mchan32]

he is casting the wrong game.. he should be casting either League of Legends or Starcraft2 or even counter strike.. (SC2 since its blizzcon) The commentators are much better there and the games are also doing much better than WoW..

[@patatepowa]

in retrospect the sc2 game were so intense and exciting that i think conan would've ruined it or some of it at least.

[@donnymoist8058]

Thank you sooo much for posting this

[@hooksdonny]

conan #1 WoW troll. such skill much lol'z

[@mikehancho2082]

Conan’s one of the best comedians and a professional interviewer, and it shows these commentators and the crowds severely lack interpersonal communication skills….and it’s amazing lol

[@CastIronRestore]

Your a moron

[@agentone8511]

I believe his father was a warlock and his father before him lol

[@thutasoe6437]

he's talking shit ! hahaha

[@arkhamknight4200]

noelwiz peter Boring because WoW is incredibly boring to watch and less Conan. I had no idea what the hell was happening and I'm an avid RTS gamer. I'm surprised Conan didn't kill himself. He's a champ for sticking in there and trying to make it funny.

[@sumfintodowithSkulls]

I thought world of warcraft was about swords and shit, all I saw was little things running around in circles and throwing colours at each other

[@catatonic8313]

those casters are trying soo hard lol. but its soo freaking funny

[@UnderGroundMerlin]

Serious nerds are never any fun around stars :/

[@Randomnoobi]

ROFL!! Conan is so awesome man. Comedy wasted on a dull crowd....

[@tomjones2768]

conan laughs at you pathetic wow nerds and you like it. i like xD

[@SohnoZ]

"You've just agreed to something that even I know does make no sense. Cmon, you're a professional!" LMAO

[@Teah8cbdude]

Conan basically saying "who gives a shit about this crappy game, please go outside"

[@akashiseijuro2393]

Some fans of WoW doesnt know conan and doesnt even know whats goin on in the commentator spot. They're like, "What's going on!? Da hell happend to the commentators?"

[@sweou]

What is he even doing there in the first place!? Btw I love how he pretends to know "They're hungry, the word out there is they wanna go all the way" haha

[@erkkamykkanen]

Ahhh this is such a delicious comment.

[@MrRodlund]

pathetic human being

[@MrRodlund]

you are

[@fupaking9719]

I kept laughting everytime conan opened his mouth xD

[@Donchayito]

fucking love conan

[@EveryGamerLife]

I play video games and i dont even know whats going on

[@SicariusGaming87]

I watched this on Friday and I was dying with laughter. Good stuff

[@Maxoule22]

So love this guy man, what a beast improv

[@jeremyaw210]

These commentators need to lighten up! Its missing the passion that sc2 has.

[@seanthomaswilliams]

Conan is hilarious, but this is painful to watch

[@jeremyaw210]

Yea WoW is just not meant to be an Esport.

[@1mahn]

There are two good commentators out there, but I can't remember their names. It would have been hilarious to see them with Conan.

[@MrDrainBramaged]

DAT GUYS FACE AT at 10:50 LOLLOLLOLL

[@jeff8253]

Wtf is going on in this game XD

[@userr8w7d73]

lmao when he brought up barenhd at the end (the zombie who said u mad?)

[@73dustpan]

Triumph would have been perfect for this

[@DrICHundrannere]

10:50 that guy xD

[@KK-gt9ml]

Haha that is me!!

[@Sandra_aschenbach_doyle]

I lost it completely at “potions and creams.” I feel sorry for the poor souls who were there. Not because of conan. Just in general.

[@CssHDmonster]

WoW is such a bad esport,kinda feeling sad for conan

[@Noelwiz]

This was painful to watch

[@hui83]

yeah, a bit less hilarious than i thought it'd be. conan isn't really a sportscaster to begin with.

[@marcopino4638]

For everyone wqatching on twitter, you should get your own apartment. KEK

[@rjhong93]

"You dont have to dub it down for me" I lost it!!!! I love Conan's description....hilarious

[@Rennyblue]

As a previous ex-wow player that got a better than average 2.1k rating in S3, I can tell you I too don't know what the fuck is going on and I'm as clueless as O'brien. I don't know if it's the almost 10 years I've been away from the game, or that the game just can't be a legit e-sport no matter how hard they would try. And that's why i guess Blizzard isn't actually bothering with trying, arena will never make it out of Blizzcon anyway.

[@somany5]

WoW has changed too much, it lost a huge portion of their subscribers

[@bikramrana7698]

1:07 that guy at back😂😂

[@elzach0]

funniest thing in the whole of blizzcon 2013

[@digitalgravity3563]

He really commenting like professional 😂

[@crocodal21]

i could care less about this game i just watched this because of Conan #teamcoco

[@Apolloshot]

Yeah, the commentators there weren't very good. And the crowds were pretty small, SC2 is obviously the better esport, Conan should of casted one of the early SC games instead.

[@wildcrack25]

Having a clueless commentator on the biggest e-sports: SC2, LOL, DOTA 2 might anger the fans

[@Nin13666]

wildcrack25 Conan is hilarious, fuck the ragers.

[@hooksdonny]

wildcrack25 id rather watch Conan troll SC2 than WoW....

[@Greatkingrat88]

Apollo OMG, can you imagine Conan O'Brien casting the finals between sOs and Parting? WIN!

[@fortawesomm]

wildcrack25 I'm a fan of DotA 2 and I want Conan on TI4

[@MaliciousCat]

Conan: *fires a funny joke*Blizzard Employees and WoW Nerds: .... *cough*

[@david-andreisterie4005]

10:55 in back round omg have to see

[@muggedbyapriest]

Those guys in the background are such tools. Okay, we get it, you're on the screen. Especially that one creep in the hat who stayed there like 10 mins. The joke gets old fast, stop being a dick and sit down. In fact, what the fuck was security or staff doing? Anyone can just walk up to Conan in theory and touch his head or something lol. I saw security stop one dude passing innocently, but completely ignored mustachio over there.

[@mver191]

Those socially awkward nerds on the sides were way to serious!

[@cichlid43]

kacytron/conan/sodapopping

[@ALucard54ify]

omg i laughed so hard

[@bryanmemory8508]

hahaha conan is so funny!

[@anarrivingwingedhussar9692]

God this is why I hate WoW, it's a lame game and the community is humorless.

[@The__Outlaw]

Ok , now we're through the gates and snow is still falling , snow expected through the weekend. So if you have weekend plans make sure you get them changed. Conan - World of Warcraft Weatherman. I LOVE IT.

[@mike10401]

Most of them aren't laughing probly cuz they don't know him cuz they are from foreign countries

[@abzd9828]

Do those two realize Conan is trolling them? Are they just playing along?

[@anonymityismyname]

LOL Conan!

[@zoramralte]

Dear conan what about dota 2..its kind of popular right now....would be awesome

[@NikolasThane]

@10:50...SOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ryownage7349]

Lmao Conan showcasing his bullshitting skills for 25 minutes would be a better name

[@MrDerpatron3000]

Conan needs to take this more seriously. I mean IT'S A VIDEO GAME WHICH MEANS ITS LIFE!

[@MrArbeter]

Hunters shouldent be in the arena finals we can se how bad and underpowered the class is

[@joshrose8132]

You're A Wisner. Yello/ sand woman What's happening, gu{s. 1!

[@TheSunIsMyDestroyer]

the commentators don't seem experienced enough to avoid being nervous, always on guard lol

[@Raammson]

The problem is Conan O'Brien is about as serious as Blizzard has taken their WoW arena. He should be the new WoW competitive arena figurehead.

[@tc16169]

Definitely the most knowledgeable color commentator I've ever heard 😂

[@republikadugave420]

Man if Jordan Schlansky was there that would be comedy gold

[@mamasaymama]

lol @ 3:36 some kids are petting Conan's head

[@zepo9]

que fenómeno! ajjajaja. De lo mas gracioso que he visto....

[@theendistheend123]

Do we have to drink every time someone says "of course?"

[@Ekalavya]

With all the blizzies 😂😂😭😭😭
