In this video I talk about the goblins and how powerful they are in world of warcraft. Covering their history from Ulduar and Mimiron to the discovery of kaja'mite, the Great Sundering and the enslavement by the Zandalari. I also go through the rebellion, develoment of Kezan and the Bilgewater Cartel joining the Horde in WoW: Cataclysm. Lastly I talk about the goblins and their characteristics, appearance, technology and inventions. The entire history of Goblins from the start of the wow universe to their BFA mining operations in Zandalar.

In Warcraft 3 Goblin technology was so powerful that they technically defeated the Burning Legion with only land mines in the final mission.

I always felt goblins added the technological edge that the horde was lacking to realistically compete with the alliance

[@mafiablokes]

That’s why they were added in Cata. Like same with the worgen, who provided the Alliance with the physical might that the Alliance previously lacked compared to the Horde

You forgot to mention how the Blackfuse Company almost single-handedly industrialized the Draenor orcs in record time. That is power. /goblin flex

[@LilHadess]

I dont think that goblins tech is "primitive" but in a "if it works it's good enough" and "use the absolute minimal work" mindset so that's why they dont do their work to perfection like gnomes

[@Doronsmovies]

Yeah, they definitely care more about functionality as opposed to aesthetics.

[@battleax6364]

Not to mention goblins are excellent salesmen I feel like that’s where they use most of their intelligence when it comes to business strategy they’re always thinking six steps ahead

[@Zealaez]

I always love their shenanigans with the gnomes!

they'll never have enough attention,goblins are too cool for a single game,but this expansion they're having their greater role in 10 years

[@horner385]

I mean Goblins like...they're not into the horde But they dislike the Alliance So...it's just a thing of "ally with the one I dont dislike" Also the horde pays

Doron, thank you, after several years of failure your video sparked my creativity to make my goblin into a proper rp character

No problem, glad it helped. :)

[@TheKhashan]

goblins are like reallife humans

[@KronosSupreme]

i am shocked you never put the races on a tier list. Me i honestly think they are maybe the most powerful race in game. Again great video and really happy almost every video you make has a sponsor . Based on their accomplishments, adaptability, resourcefulness and usefulness not many races can come close to what they have made. It seems not even the gnomes are able to make magnitude of tech goblins can.

[@looka698]

In every category you listed, the Draenei beat Goblins by a long shot. The Draenei literally have spaceships that can travel at light speed.

[@KronosSupreme]

@@looka698 Yes they made hyperspace travel but they have done nothing with it BUT RUN AWAY. We seen in legion how amazing goblin weapons are against the burning legion. We even confirmed that the goblin's giant weapon is going to be fired this expansion. And my honest guess is that its going to fire at the Exodar.

[@ironlordshellhead3415]

"It seems not even the gnomes are able to make magnitude of tech goblins can." What?

[@noxflo897]

Gnome tech is much better than Goblins

[@ironlordshellhead3415]

@@noxflo897 Amen brother.

[@Kristers_K]

There is no question that they are quite formidable in warfare, where as the gnomish tech is more mechanically oriented and largely just to look pretty. Primitive or not, gnomes just don't stand a chance against goblins when it comes to killing and destruction.

[@battleax6364]

Hell yeah!

[@LoganMccoy-xk5tn]

Just absolutely wrong. Feat wise the gnomes have much more to back up against the Goblins.

[@maenhalawani]

they should make goblins and gnomes tamable as hunter pets

[@HavocHounds1988]

I did not know Goblin blood was green, looks like I learned something new lol.

[@Danci1337]

I can't remember where i've read that, and if it's true, but goblins also breed like terribly fast! If it wasn't for the failures of their inventions that ends up killing alot of them all the time, they would have overpopulated Azeroth by now. Again source i seriously can't remember, also how true it is.

[@davidb3155]

Goblin just doesn't feel right without a tinker class

[@Garik_2182]

they are driven by pure ambition without the boundaries of a moral code. i think they have the potential to acquire absolute power,but their lack of survival instinct (they have it,but not the priority level that would overcome ambition) keeps them from really succeding. Cho's quest in the jade forest IS A MUST. my favorite race,every time i play the initial questline there's something new i hadn't put my eye on before (and already have like 8 of them)

[@Elite_Tauren_Chieftain]

I would argue that goblin technology isn’t primitive, it’s just genius in its simplicity. Like the gnomes make precious super expensive pieces of art And goblins make cheap super cost-effective and time efficient, but few-time-use practical stuff

[@099Nitro]

Goblins are so op, they had to be nerfed and splintered into 5 serperate and rivaling factions before they could claim world domination.

[@kunalmehta8961]

Hey doron, got a question, just how powerful is Illidan seeing as he destroyed xera with one eye beam? And what's the source of this power? It can't be Azzinoth, the Demon he defeated way back. Also, could you address the following in one of the following videos about Elune? What if Elune is a titan, but one who did not join Aman'Thul's pantheon? If that's true, she may be the most powerful titan, since Sargeras didn't mess with her even though he pretty much destroyed the rest of the pantheon singlehandedly. My theory is that there will be a future expansion when Azeroth rises, half corrupted by the old gods and half deranged due to Sargeras' sword, and that Sargeras and Elune team up to defeat her. With that Sargeras' belief that a void corrupted titan is the most powerful entity in the universe will be shattered and he'll redeem himself battling Azeroth. If he survives, he may set off searching for more nascent titans like he once did alongside his bro Aggramar

[@bensheldon3693]

Will you do videos for the allied races, like Dark Irons and Lightforged?

[@ironlordshellhead3415]

Nice video of the second smartest race in Azeroth.

[@davidgeldner2167]

Goblin mages be like “What happens if I cast combustion….ON A BOMB?”

[@someone259.1]

Once more,great video!I think goblins can also be great rogues.their small size makes goblins very good at infiltration,and as mentioned at the video,although small in size,they are not weak.they are no orcs either but for a rogue,strength can help but it's not so important. Now add the fact that they are very smart,and that who knows what gadgets they could have,in addition of the poisons that every good rogue has,and they can be some really troublesome pieces of shit!😅

[@battleax6364]

Don’t forget about the speed goblins are also really good rogues because of how fast they are also I looked up on wowHead what’s the best class to play as for a goblin and they said rogue based on the stats

[@D00M3R-SK8]

I like how the Goblin lore in WoW starts off, but the whole NYC connection thing is a bit much. I could have dealt with some kind of subtle nod to compare them to New Yorkers, but it's way too on the nose and it really effects my ability to play as a Goblin in WoW. Even their music is supposed to remind you of NYC. Sick of it. Gobbos have nothing to do with New York, just stop it.

[@DarkMegaPlague]

what bugger me a little with goblins i their hands and feets, they lack details, plus the shifting of green is a little messed up. But the faces and modelmovements are alright. except the choices we get during character creation. noses and ears shouldnt be bond to each other, that just limits on how many different appearances we can make as goblin players. I always wanted to make a male goblin with a smal nose but with those ears so he would look like a gremlin or mogwai.
