The Wrathgate

In this pivotal cut-scene from World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, Dranosh Saurfang and Lord Bolvar Fordragon lead a final assault of Horde and Alliance forces against the Scourge at Angrathar the Wrathgate, just outside of Icecrown Citadel. Players will discover the events which unfold at the Wrathgate after embarking on an unyielding series of quests through Dragonblight in Northrend.

[@gamefan56]

The Chief The Forsaken used to be a part of the Scourge but managed to get freed from the Lich Kings grasp during the events of Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne. Together with the Horde they aimed to destroy the Lich King and the Scourge. the band of Forsaken you saw in this video was a rouge group who worked together with a dread lord. In fact they went and took over the capital of Undercity which forced the other Horde races and the actual Forsaken to strike back and take them out.

Wrong, Robert. Yes, to normal plague Death Knights and Paladins are immune, but this is an especially deadly magical plague that Putress developed with the assistance of Varimathras to kill not only Scourge but living as well. So it basically hit through immunities.

What they do with those traitors is the important thing; The alliance let Arthas live even after the culling of stratholme (the first of his traitorous acts), however we caught both Puttress and Varimathras and killed them ASAP.

[@-Miasimon]

For some reason, people look at me funny when I say "RiP Putress... greatest Forsaken to ever unlive..." Come on, he's the *only* Forsaken to make himself known in ingame lore (aside from Sylvanas). We get *tons* of Orcs, Humans, Night Elves, Blood Elves, Dwarves, and Tauren involved in the story line (aside from leaders)... the only times I see other races, is when they're a part of the Earthen Ring or under another neutral faction consisting of multiple races (doesn't count imo) Blizz needs to start showing love for *all* the races, and not just their favorites -.-

[@-Miasimon]

***** She wasn't exactly "made known"... as in, about the only ones that know about her were the humans (a very low number of them) and the Forsaken. She wasn't even brought to the attention of the other members of the Horde, let alone the Alliance. Don't get me wrong, I loved her back story and I wish Blizz would have made her a recurring character, possibly even a major lore character... alas, we hardly even hear about her after your Forsaken leaves Tirisfal... Would be pretty epic if Blizz decided to make her into a Shadow Ascendant (and give Shadow Ascendants a proper model...) for WoD or a future x-pack and be the commander of a segment of the Forsaken in a new land.

[@Ultimaton100]

Keep in mind Putress and his lackeys were traitors to the Forsaken, acting without Sylvanas' orders. Putress and his rebellious partner, Varimathras, who was Sylvanas' former second in command, are both killed soon after this for their treason. Sylvanas and true Forsaken loyal to her and the Horde did not want this to happen.

[@Kayriel]

Ultimaton100 The only reason she didn't want this to happen is because SHE DIDN'T WANT TO BE EXPOSED. Sylvanas is lining up to become The Lich Queen. She was the one setting all this up to begin with, Putress just jumped the gun and drew attention to it all and she used him as a scapegoat. Sylvanas has no loyalty to the Horde, and as long as the Horde continues to shelter her, they are responsible for whatever horrors she unleashes on everyone.

[@Ultimaton100]

Kayriel Wrong, very very wrong. You Alliance fans sure love to compare Sylvanas to the Lich King without having any facts at all to support such insanity. The Lich King enslaved masses of undead. Sylvanas gives them a choice to serve or not. The Lich King sought to destroy all life. Sylvanas is only exterminating threats to her people. Sylvanas did order the creation of the New Plague, intended as a weapon against the Scourge and the living enemies of the Forsaken such as the Scarlets and the Alliance. Sylvanas is an anti-hero, not a villain. She does questionable things for a good cause. The Alliance on the other hand started the war and waged it for no other reason than racism, and even the Draenei and Alliance Pandaren share blame for the atrocities of their allies.

[@Kayriel]

Ultimaton100 Wrong! Pay attention to the lore. My Horde friends also pointed out to me exactly what I posted. Your butthurt isn't going to fix anything. Horde and Alliance, both sides have evidence that proves you incorrect. Congratulations, you're a fanboy.

[@Ultimaton100]

Kayriel Evidently I'm the only one here reading the Lore, not you. You making up your own stories isn't going to change the facts written by Blizzard. Any person who agrees with you is simply ignorant and hopeless like you. You claim I am "butthurt", but your the one making up garbage and trying to pass it off as Lore, and the one mad at me for calling out that foolishness. Seems your the fool here, not me.

"Hahahaha...Did you think we had FORGOTTEN?! Did you think we had FORGIVEN?!"

[@barghastov]

I get goose bumps everytime the frost Vrykul yells.

[@samwisegamgee6206]

Yeah ik ;w; giant viking soldiers who are infinitely more skilled in combat than undead. But alas, the might of both horde and alliance killed them :p Quite honestly, the Vrykul are a very powerful species. Would be cool to play as one.

Keith O'Leary I still want to know what he said.

Morec0 Most likely something badass.

[@Morec0]

Keith O'Leary At the moment, I'm partially convinced that due to the similarities between Vrykul and norse/nordic languages, if we could get someone who speaks said languages to transcribe what they hear and then compare it to what we know we might get an answer. Personally, though, I'd think he'd be shouting something along the lines of "for the Death God" or something.

Even in 2017, that "RISE UP, SONS OF THE HORDE!" at 0:54 still stabs me right in the feels.

[@glorfindrasborgia9074]

God this makes me miss Wrath so much. I love what they are doing with WoW currently, but Wrath just had this melancholy tone and atmosphere. It's hard to describe, but everything from the Northrend zones, to its story, characters and narratives had a certain dark beauty to them.

[@Kementtari]

I love this cinematic much more now, since i read in blizzcon 2019 all the characters on the video are real players ^^

[@Xerak.]

Saurfang the Younger had so much going for him! It was terrible to have to see him as a death knight and having to kill him :(

[@DrPoxyPhD]

Even today, this is still one of the best cinematics they've ever done.

[@biffyqueen]

I love that even now, if you fly over the Wrathgate, there's still people screaming

[@Patron_TheBoss]

Still gives me the chills after 10+ years!

[@alfredosiller23]

It’s 2023 and this still gives me the feels….

[@Infernoblade1010]

Still the best wow cinematic ever!!!

[@bossofavernus1620]

3:39 when you fail at a boss for the 50th time

[@mob1u5]

"for the horde" in unison.. bone chills

[@Lawpope1]

This brings back so many memories, I love this Cine!

[@-zbrdazdola-]

[@neonsolace2748]

[@jobiggle4039]

The BEST in game cinematic that WoW has ever had! Bar none!

[@adrianhunter109]

A year into Legion xpac and this cinematic still hasn't been topped.

[@Shadow_All]

Saurfang Jr would be the best Warchief :| R.I.P
