17:59, to be honest this is the best what could have happened to trolls. Having a dungeon/raid in almost every expansion kept them relevant to the story and give us a lot of lore. If you even think about it trolls and orcs have the most expanded and flash put lore and history. Compare to humans who were relegated to "adventures of Wrynn family and friends," "lol, poison gas" Forsaken and "safe us mighty human" night elves, being turned into loot pinata isnt the worst fate.

One thing I would like to add to your video is that, despite Vol'jin eventually regaining his regeneration at the end of it, in Shadows of the Horde, Vol'jin does in fact not regenerate the huge hole in throat because of his own self doubts. So, perhaps, despite his engagement, maybe Zul'jin had doubts about his ability to squash the high elves even though he continuously rallied against them.

[@XxCody369xX]

@Cegesh and by doing so his voice is much deeper.

An interesting fact to take into consideration: the troll language is composed of many short words, often compounded together. This shows in troll names as a short given name (i.e. "Vol") and an honorific tagged on to the front or back (i.e. "'jin": elder or chieftain). Zul'jin isn't a name, it's a title: "zul" meaning the great and "jin" as seen above. Therefore he is "the great chieftain".

Anybody else realise that Trolls are one of two (playable) races, along with Tauren that are actually native to Azeroth? Orcs and Draenei are from Draenor originally, Dwarven, Gnomes and Humans (and therefor also Undead) were originally titan constructs afflicted with the curse of flesh. Technically the Elven races could qualify, but they were originally Trolls that evolved due to their proximity to the Well of Eternity, which was the result of, you guessed it, the battle of Titans and Old Gods, therefor also not a natural native species of Azeroth.

And the Horde chose to ally with the scumfuck High Elves and still maintain that alliance to this day, absolute no go.

Zul'jin never healed his eye or regrew his arm for two reasons: 1: He was pretty old, so his regenerative powers ain't what they used to be. 2: Especially traumatic injuries can hinder their ability to heal.

Whether it be emotional trauma or hatred, Zul'jin's healing was scuppered by his inner turmoil.

No, blizzard are just terrible at their own lore. In BfA there are clear situations where a troll has regenerated massive damage in mere seconds during combat, such as an entirely shattered jaw or disembowlment. It has nothing to do with emotional trauma. In lore it states a troll can regenerate at will, this means they can literally regenerate anything with a thought. Unless a troll suffers a killing blow to the head or heart, they will regenerate should they want to. This even goes for fire, fire damage DOES regenerate, but at a slower pace.

This was a solid video, kudos there, I am heartened to see the Amani getting some respect & sympathy.

Also I am surprised Zanza and his "Arcanum" wasn't mentioned. On the subject of other videos on trolls, I hope the highly advanced magic and sustainability of the Drakkari gets some regard. They got screwed in canon, but if you actually look at their accomplishments they built a city the size of a country as big as Gilnease under incredibly frigid circumstances & yet somehow produced a surplus of food, had epic sized homes, a functional military, & incredible magics. They even brought down a Necropolis when it attacked them and seemed to only start losing to the Scourge thanks to internal betrayal & sabotage from the Argent Dawn & Zandalari, & even then, before the latter got there, they had seemingly been able to drive off the Scourge or stop its advance.

I really need a TV show featuring troll lands being invaded, this plot line is such a great one honestly

[@Eantrin]

Vengeance for Zul’Jin! *Troll and Blood elf party members glare at each other*

[@joezar33]

This why I play Turtle WoW as a Alliance High Elf and a Goblin Horde .. those 2 races should have been at 2004 Launch.. Blood Elves on the Horde took away the Horde intimidation factor they orginal had , current Retail WoW Horde are more Elf-Centric with a few Panda Bears lol

[@NaltanirTES]

​@@joezar33that's why i love turtle wow too, so annoying to see on Retail all these elves in horde side.

[@purpleisthesneakiest]

i have been waiting for the amani video for far too long VENGEANCE FOR ZUL'JIN

[@keimojeppe]

DrDisrespect elf was so perfect lmao

[@viktorratticus1562]

I just learned that blizzard is racist to trolls

[@ttpbroadcastingcompany.4460]

I mean, you're not wrong...

[@BIacklce]

what do you think their push towards "Blizzard's AI/Machine Learning system used to validate player reports around offensive behavior" is all about, anti-troll sentiment

[@fluffyfraud]

@Anessen Still better than smug elves

*#TrollLivesMatter*

[@zydler1189]

Blizzard is racist against his own characters and lore since wow

[@Poopdahoop]

Yes! Finally! Someone said it, the Amani aren't the bad guys.

[@MarzThe7]

We are.

[@CampaignerSC]

Imagine worshiping gods of nature and then losing a natural fight over territory and saying "waaaaaah, we were here first."

[@shonuff9181]

@@CampaignerSC lol what?

[@willhem5668]

@@CampaignerSC Yes, lets steamroll civilizations with less war power (less war power is not being an inferior civilization), destroy they culture, take their lands and make propaganda saying that they were evil savages just because we do not understand their context. You think that being able to conquer other civilizations makes you better when in reality each civilization is different and good in their own way, everything that you say is from a modern, propagandist point of view that portrays the loosers as inferior when in reality it is just the one with the stronger weapon wins, not the superior

[@CampaignerSC]

@@willhem5668 "Lets?" I'm not part of your pathetic hivemind mentality; I'm an individual, not some member of an insect group that feels pride or guilt over the actions of other human beings that I hold no control over. I can make fun of any hilariously ironic belief system I wish to make fun of.

[@vicktowohain1219]

Hand down the best patch video. "We gonna bury you here"

[@animalmother5988]

Yay, I'm included! :D

[@MisterSigath]

Your work is so good Can't wait for your next video

[@KevinArcade87]

Platinum WoW the best source for Warcraft History

[@shaolinboar]

How did I just find this channel. I haven't played in a while, vanilla to mists of pandaria. But hands down, one of the most entertaining channels I've come across. Great stuff!

[@SkurtavusGrodolfus]

Here before that one guy who doesn't have that one mount reacts to it.

[@Aambr094]

Damn these lore videos are cool, subscribed

[@Dielektrium]

Good lord that DrDisrespect part was perfect! Well done! x)

[@oluftheexplorer9476]

High Elves/Blood Elves - "We need allies. I know, let's go ally ourselves with those monsters that nearly destroyed Silvermoon back in the Second War. That makes sense, right? ... riiiiiiiight?"

[@Echo_Isles]

"Look. You made Zul'jin cry. How do you sleep at night?"

[@year111]

Zul'jin was lucky he didn't mess with Lor'themars hair, he would have his troll guts ripped out by the elfs bare hands.

[@zenkai121]

what im hearing is, their lust for revenge got them destroyed. A good leader wouldve found a way for their people to survive, making what he chose to be wrong.

[@kawaiku]

This troll lore series makes me feel even better that my brief stint in WoW was as a Troll ranger.

[@44-mhamdihamza23]

there is still one forest troll tribe thats is still with the Horde (in the hinterlands)

[@dannsantos530]

The Revantusk tribe in the Hinterlands. The ones in the Arathi Highlands are the Witherbark and they are hostile.

[@emperortenebrisemeraldwing8578]

Pretty soon they're gonna be the only Forest troll tribe with any sort of power. Trolls either join the Horde, or end up decimated by it

[@NcuentroGuatemala]

Hey man! Great content! You should do a lore video series for raids!
