A very common question is what is the oldest race on Azeroth and in this video, I thought I would give my take on it.
Talking about the actual oldest living 'race' the elementals and then covering other mortal creatures and the playable races. Covering not just the native races on Azeroth but also the ones that have recently arrived such as the Draenei.
Also quickly covering race origins and the evolution from the ordering of Azeroth up to World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth.

[@DanTheTanned]

I have a suggestion. I would love to see a new series where u talk about various factions in wow, eg Scarlet Crusade, Argent Dawn etc

[@dylanbrewer8605]

I agree

[@Doronsmovies]

As in just their lore or some sort of a versus series?

[@shadowgamer4306]

Doronsmovies i would prefer the lore

[@DanTheTanned]

@@Doronsmovies The lore. The creation of the faction, what is their purpose, who are the important members, does it still exist in the present day, etc. Thanks for the reply. Much love

[@Eventwow]

Trolls are the oldest race but they took a long time to develop. Night elves where trolls but where enhanced by the well of eternity and advanced rapidly away from the trolls.

[@ayethe4603]

From azeroth its elementals then trolls the old gods and bugs dont count their from outside sources

[@localdingus6788]

The void lords launched old god seeds across the universe and they grow when they hit something so they technically grew on Azeroth so I’d count them.

[@localdingus6788]

@Éric Midgǎrd do you know how old gods grow no I didn’t think so. But you’re technically correct I meant seeds in the non literal sense like a small package of life that grows into a large organism like how human Sperm is called seed even though where not fecking plants.

[@localdingus6788]

@CheesyToast 1 but was I correct.

Man, I haven't watched your videos in a few months due to a break of playing wow, and holy hell your videos are amazing now, continue the good work my man!

[@TheEarlofManwhich]

Murlocs and Makura are probably in the running too. Anything descending from the wild gods, and the more basal aquatic organisms likely predate more advanced species like the furbolg, tauren, tuskar, and of course trolls.

[@AnimWolf]

Trolls are definitly the oldest playable race of azeroth...

[@alltheworldswonders4926]

D'you want axe?

But the Draenei are the oldest playable race. :)

[@ashoush85]

[@JangtotheWonyoung]

Can you do a how to roleplay of all the allied races? Or how powerful they are?

[@Skollshorties]

It is curious because the Mantid (the Aqir) make it sound like the pandaren are actually a young race, at least to them, but that could mean lots of things.

[@Doronsmovies]

Well seeing that the Old Gods are not just on Azeroth it isn't too out of line to assume that the old god minions also exist on other planets in some forms.

[@Skollshorties]

@@Doronsmovies I do believe they did say that the Mantid evolved or devolved from the Aqir, but yeah I get what you mean. Especially when you have a Silithid aboard a Naaru space-prison.

[@Le7emeChat]

Well the Mantids are the only other race(than the troll) to call the Titans "the great usurpers" and to remember, in their history, of the time from before the Titans arrival.

[@DemonMaluMintus]

Pandaren existed before sundering actually so they are AT LEAST 10k years old

[@strider8662]

tauren are older than elves but its not confirmed that they are older than trolls, but it is possible.

[@mathieust-gelais9297]

The first fleshy races was the Old Gods spawns and in the goblins introduction we found a Faceless who say that the goblins was the old slaves race.

[@maden4039]

Mitochondria obviously.

[@christianweibrecht6555]

Doron, while I understand the need for funding, have you courted other sponsors to replace G2A

[@TheSuperRatt]

Oldest races on Azeroth? Easy, the Elementals. Or you could say 'Titan' since Azeroth DOES have a world soul; which was likely there since it was a hot glob floating in space. If those don't count, I'd say either Furbolg or Trolls. Probably Furbolg, in my opinion.

[@naer3513]

Dragons?

[@TheKobasen]

What about proto dragon?? Do they exist before the Titans arrive or they already exist like the trolls??

[@ogikay7056]

They existed before the titans i guess.

[@highkergaymer8301]

They existed before, the dragons and drakes we know of today evolved directly from Titan intervention. The chromatic flights and dragon aspects we know of today were given their powers as Wards of Azeroth because they showed bravery and honor while fighting the super mega giant protodrake Galakrond.

[@Le7emeChat]

Strange, somewhere in my memory I remember the protodragon to be the titan first experiment to what will lead to the dragon aspect, implying the Titans created them as a first try (an Alfa version)

[@DemonMaluMintus]

Ahem please do not mind the other comments in recent lore proto drakes were elementals who escaped inprisonment from elemental planes and in time they turned in to creatures of flesh, aka proto drakes, that is why they have inate elemental breaths ^^ so they came to be after the ordering but we do not know WHEN ordering took place for all we know that it might have happened 50k years ago X'D

[@landonlandonson9291]

Amazing video man!

[@DemonMaluMintus]

Actually we don't really know how old the trolls are or how old Azeroth is compared to Argus or the draeeni or WHEN old gods actually infested the world so saying %100 draenei are oldest are a bit tricky I would say given we do not know WHEN ordering of azeroth took place and so on^^ earlier recorded history is raise of the zandalari/highborne empire

[@bekirarslan1443]

Dragons

[@luxitrash]

elementals> old gods creations> titanic guards > gnomes and dwarfs and "loa"??

[@AssasinWukong]

great video mon

[@naturalmystic5098]

Someone didn't like trolls at the time. Like a downer to find out it's trolls lol. Thank you for the great videos.

[@unclejesse2506]

The nornal looking gnomes come from the mechagon ones? I wouldve figured vice versa

[@meowix318]

The playable gnomes were affected by the curse of flesh, therefore being the younger race.

[@loremastervoidless1026]

I mean TECHNICALLY Azeroth is a titan, so it would make the titans

[@eriseverblight729]

Trolls and goblins from what I've learned so far to me seem the oldest player race native to azeroth though pandaran are possible I'm a horde player that mains in goblins so my knowledge can be off

[@seekervaltriz9447]

Goblins and trolls do not share an ancestor, as far as we know. However, goblins and pygmies does.

@@misterbooya9669 Indeed you are right good sir after the black empire and after the ordering troll wars happened back when trolls awakened an ancient old god general who rouse up the insectoids of the old after trolls won the war they split their empire to north they came to be known as nerubians to south mantid and to west silithid aqir.

[@Chocoboranger]

Excuse you. the dragons were here long before the trolls.

[@DemonMaluMintus]

Bt with bfa..lightforged draenei if we count allied races...Normal draenei are 25k years old lf have been to nether for ALL that 25k year where time flows even faster...if we go by game lore like 1k years passed since trulyon joined which equals to like 25 years or something lf are around 1 million years old(ones from argus) BUT it is stated that time constantly changes like sometimes a week goes like a month sometimes 10 years regardless they are supposed to be super old even compared to normal draenei.

20-30 hundred years ago

[@lokigamer9236]

How the trolls turned into elves? I didnt understand. Someone made a video about it?

[@AnimWolf]

The power of the well of eternity. Troll tribes settled there and turned into elves.

[@Le7emeChat]

Let me tell you: Races which descended from the Trolls: Night-elves, High-elves, Blood-elves, void-elves, Nightborn, Naga, Fal'dorei, Satyrs. Did I missed any?

[@dorianmartin3446]

It's still not confirmed that they came from trolls, there's many lore confirmations that they're related, but theres still even the possibility that trolls came from night elves or they share a proto-troll ancestor.

[@Le7emeChat]

From the old Blizzard forum: us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/17999967081 "Some ancient texts dictate that a small group of trolls, called Dark Trolls, had split off and formed a society along the shores of the Well of Eternity. These pioneers are speculated to have become the Kaldorei, or Children of the Night, which has been confirmed by the Titanic Watchers of Ulduar."

[@Le7emeChat]

@@dorianmartin3446 The Titanic Watchers of Ulduar confirmed it.

¿Azeroth you say? We draenei are the oldest on the universe, we even have spaceships crafted by ourselves. It's like comparing Conan the barbarian with a Sith Lord.

[@leverman2511]

What if goblins where originally trolls that were experimented on by mimiron

[@casuallycompliant3045]

Then how would they end up on kezan, that's half of azeroth in walking distance

"In ancient times, the keeper Mimiron had discovered kaja'mite and, attempting to determinate its properties, he experimented on various races. He found that the ore was extremely potent and that it increased the intellect of his subjects. One of these subjects was a small primitive life race that roamed around the forests near Ulduar. By consuming kaja'mite, they were transformed into a new, highly intelligent race known as the goblins.[2] The goblins share a common ancestor with pygmies.[3]" here c:
