Holy crap! You did a phenomenal job with this video. I especially liked how you tied the end of the video to the beginning via Nher’Zul, because honestly the major events did kinda start with him, so well done. You did make one tiny mistake, however, in saying that the dragons made the World Tree for the night elves, then Illidan was arrested for having tried to create a new Well. It’s actually the reverse. Illidan did try to make a new well with his vials, and he succeeded, and then was arrested because of it. The dragons decided to turn the Well INTO the tree, which is why it provides immortality and an immense source of magic. It’s also why the World Tree was Archimonde’s target in Warcraft 3, and why it was so important to protect. They wanted to avoid a second War of the Ancients, because it was basically a second Well, in tree form. Sorry if it seems kind of nitpicky, but hey, we’re all nerds here, so I figured accuracy would be appreciated lol I couldn’t find a single other thing wrong with the video, which I am incredibly impressed by. Well done again!

AmberDynamo WoW lore gets pretty rough. once they shift focus from characters like Arthas or Thrall to the player characters of WoW it starts getting clunky.

@@Lawllin To me, Arthas' story was the peak of WC's storytelling and lore. The story wasn't as cool before it and it never got as cool after it ended in WotLK. Plus the Arthas novel fleshed him out as a character so much better than the actual game (for obvious reasons, but still) that I could easily call it "Anakin Skywalker done correctly." There are still some good storylines, especially in the books (War of the Ancients comes to mind, and Rise of the Horde was excellent).

The CW series fixes some of the issues, though, so fair enough.

Ner'zhul was always a confusing character to me The Undead's Acolytes in WC3 constantly saying "For Ner'zhul" always made me wonder. How did their cult get started, and did the burning legion craft the Lich King's armour and the sword of frostmourne? And did Ner'zhul ever even have the sword of frost mourne? How did it get where Arthus found it? Also is Ner'zhul still alive in the armour when Arthus wears it?
@grocksauce7422 Жыл бұрын
Haha, before Arthas became involved the lich king was indeed Ner’Zhul , but he was kind of dead and frozen on his throne. So, he had necromancer a and lichs, like Kel’thuzad, do his bidding for him. As for the helm and sword , they are said to of come from “darker beings” at first , then during the Shadowlands debacle they said they were from there and the jailer… aside from that Ner’zhuls soul is said to be joined with Arthas which makes him the “true lich king” and now joined with a living powerful paladin, stronger than ever. But it’s kind of iffy about how, and again that’s shadowlands fault, but it seemed to me, originally the moment Arthas put the helmet on he became one with Ner’Zhul. The burning legion tries to use Ner’Zhul for their own gain, but I don’t believe they had anything to do with Frostmourne or his armor. I mean originally Muradin is out there looking for the sword himself! Like .. how did he find out about it? How did he know it’s name or it’s location? Haha, now I have questions.

It's very difficult to find stuff on Varian, still no idea why people are so hype about him 😅 I'm guessing you get to fight along side him in the game or something. But ye, Ner'zhul, when you hear the Acolytes mention him you don't think he's an Orc, then you find out he was never even on Azeroth just on Draenor, then you also find out he was a shaman not a warlock. Like what is going on with this character? It's like his legacy had way more influence on the world than his actual life 😅

@@Broockle This comes from the Warcraft: Rise of the Horde books. When Ner'zhul opens the dimensional gates, he manages to slip through one. Sadly, it was a one-way track to a personal meeting with Kil'jaedan. KJ calls Ner'zhul a failure and turns him into the Lich King before throwing him down into Northrend. This is why Kil'jaedan calls himself the creator of the Lich King. People are probably hype on Varian because of his Lo'gosh identity. You can read about it in the Warcraft comics if you'd like, but long story short, he has a history as a very strong gladiator, and I won't say more if you're interested in reading up on it. There are a lot of very interesting things in the WoW books if you're lore-savvy. The games should be better at presenting some of this stuff, but the books are very interesting reads regardless.

@@grocksauce7422 Unless this lore changed in Shadowlands, Ner'zhul and Arthas fought for mental control until Arthas eventually won. This happens once their minds fuse together at the end of WC3. Kil'jaedan put Ner'zhul's conscience into the Helm of Domination. He directly created the Lich King and plopped him in Northrend. I believe Shadowlands said something about the dreadlords giving the Helm to Kil'jaedan, but regardless, it's mostly the same lore it's always been. Ner'zhul is the type of guy who would have his cult spread word of Frostmourne. I don't know if this is confirmed anywhere, but it seems very likely the rumors were planted to one day unite Arthas with Frostmourne.

@@antarath517 I did read the original trilogy with ronin, then thrall then kadgar. I also read the trilogy that goes back 10,000 years into the past and they fight the first burning legion invasion. Been a long time tho. Those were good stories.
