Rexxar was the first Warcraft character I learned about and cared about lol back in WC3 days... good times!
yep arthas,illidan and rexxar
Rexxar: "I knew this was a trap!"
Nobble: IT WAS A TRAP!
Redundant much redundant?
+RUdigitized || Nobble is also a Ingame Trap.
+RUdigitized IT'S A TRAP!
"Where I lay my head is home. See that rock? That's my pillow." - Beastmaster.
So he's beastmaster from dota2
yeah, maybe
@@gustavebacareza4076 lol, yes he is
@@gustavebacareza4076 This should be common knowledge. Beastmaster in Defense of the Ancients even uses Rexxars original model.
@@gustavebacareza4076 yes, he is. In dota his name is Rexxar, the beastmaster
Rexxar should have been made Chieftain of the horde. I feel as though Thrall would have trusted him with it more than anyone.
Rexxar was a wandered and he dont belong in the horde besides he is the head of the stonemaul clan
@@christinesey3902 Yep. He is a Chieftain of the Stonemaul Ogres.
REXXAR is like the Dark Knight, Batman of the Horde
Lol
same thought
He even looks like Batman
He's probably the inspiration for the owlbear man that Taliesin Jaffe used in the darrington brigade one shot at critical role
Bro I always said this. With his helm and glowing eyes he legit looks like batman
Damn Rexxar was a badass, I almost forgot he fought alongside Chen long time ago, oh good memories, HE SHOULD HAVE LEAD THE SIEGE OF ORGRIMMAR, when Garrosh was defeated he should have said: "I will never allow anyone to destroy what I suffered to create, neither Grommash own son, you dishonor your father's name"
Juan Cornejo send this to Blizz account, they wouldn't notice if you post here, i suggest you do it
minus the suffered part thats not his style but yeah he should have taken part i mean thats just a waste for him just to be lineless npc
The Truest Badass of Azeroth.
Rexxar would've made a great warchief. Honor, Pride, Strength, Wisdom... he's got it all down
He would of never accepted it even if Thrall had offered it. That’s just who he is.
@@erickchristensen746 nah Mon Rexxar above anything else is a man of Honor. If he given this task he would see it done doh eventually he would pass it on to someone. So he could return to the wilds.
Can we just stop and appreciate the voice actors and how awesome all the characters sound
brings back so many memoriels from when i play Warcraft 3 reign of chaos and frozen throne
So Rexxar brought all the races together? Wow.
Rexxar confirmed unsung hero
The Orc campaign's hero of Frozen Throne was Rexxar and it was pretty much an rpg within a strategy game. You play as Rexxar running around recruiting Trolls and Ogres. Everybody loves Rexx.
RUdigitized And we loved for it! ^^
To be fair, Warcraft 3 was the most RPG of all Strategy game ever existed.
Veo 16 Rexxar is great.
I hate what Blizzard has done with Rexxar. That is to say, nothing.
It's like they've completely forgotten that he exists, he's just sitting there in Thunderlord, when he could have easily come to Draenor with us, or even Pandaria.
He has seemingly no part in the Horde story anymore, and I believe the lack of his presence during the revolution is a terrible thing, because it potentially hurts his character. (Garrosh was quite possibly one of the greatest threats to the horde, because he was so deep inside it.
Rexxar should have been there to help, but he wasn't, which could make some players say "he talks a big talk, but when we needed him against Garrosh, he just sat there with his finger up his nose in Thunderlord")
Seriously, Blizz. What the heck is up with you? Just abandoning such a wonderful addition to the WoW repertoire in the back-end of Outland, in a place that some people don't even go to (I rarely went to Blade's Edge, I used to always go to the other zone that was the same level, forget which one it was.)
I seriously hope you guys don't just forget about him and he becomes a major part of the story again, because if he doesn't, you guys are abandoning a valuable asset and a character with wonderful potential in the story of WoW.
Insert Funny Comment
Nothing is better than. for example, what they did to Illidan, which is murder an awesome and multi-faced character by turning him into a senseless villain.
Jeronimo Prudêncio Apperently there might be more in the works for Illidan.
Nyghtking I hope so, Cuz he's my favortie WoW character of all time
um, you do know he's in Draenor, right? in Gorgrond, he gave some quests
Insert Funny Comment Well as if that wasnt enough they turned him into a piece of shit wearinga bow in hearthstone...
*I am Mok Nathal a wanderer. I belong in the wilds, amidst the beasts and the elements of the lands, But know this brother: i will always be part of the Horde, I will always be there when you need me. Farewell.*
"I will always be there...
...just one more game though, editing my deck, just got some sick new cards."
"Go Face...or Go Face?" = Rexxar's Current Dilemma xD
Blizzard has leaked the upcoming text names of Rexxar's new Quest Line.
The Champion of the Horde
Greetings, Traveler.
I wonder...
Let the hunt begin!
I will hunt you down!
I hunt alone.
My apologies.
That didn't quite hit the mark.
I can't target Stealthed minions.
Hrmmmmm...
I need a weapon.
My hand is too full!
Only beasts are above deceit.
I have too many minions!
The cancer is spreading...
Time moves quickly!
...Go face!
Well played.
Brandon Matthew Its a joke that they turned him into a bow wearing fucktard hunter, what a disgrace
123pa1n Back in the day huntards did also have melee weapons though.
Brandon Matthew rexxar never had a bow thou
Brandon Matthew SMOrc Kappa
Rexxar is definitely one of my top 3 favorite characters in warcraft. He's just a badass.
And chad
Rexxar is probably the greatest hunter who ever lived, lore wise.
@Zygy __ you mean beast master?
@Zygy __ ehem BEASTMASTER! BEASTS ARE AWESOME, GO BEASTMASTERY!
@@Nickball97
You forget that we as the players are the ones limited to one spec tree for gameplay reasons.
The Characters of the lord are not, Just as Vol’Jin had his own unique class type, Rexxar likely was both Beast Master and Surviver.
I love Rexxar. Desolace in the old days was the only place horde could use the roads. Why cause Allys would get killed by Rexxar if they stayed on the road to long. He has saved my ass so many times.
holy shit rexxar is orc batman
Keaton Knippel Batorc :p
Batxxar
Batman is shit
@@eavyeavy2864 they should replace batman with Rexxar
Yep! The Founding of Durotar is a bonus campaign in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.
Rexxar is kind of the Batman of Warcraft.
lol i knew i couldnt be alone in thinking this. He even has a cowl like batman
The Truest Badass of Azeroth.
Skoll Shorties Think he’ll end another Proudmoore?
FUmarc let's hope for that!
Hopefully not, although I am horde player I always admired Jaina for not being as full of shit as other alliance people, but rather mindful and diplomatic. Hope her hatred stops at some point and she is involved in finding some sort of peacful solution (after some epic battles ofcourse ^^)
Rexxar has always been an inspiration for my Orc Hunter. This has been the most detailed recounting of his story I've found so far. Great job Nobbel87
This is one of the best put together and best explained lore stories i've ever seen. This is absolutely amazing, I see this has been here for a long while. I will 100% subscribe and I saw again this is amazing work!!
VOTE REXXAR FOR NEXT WARCHIEF!
Honestly he is the best choice since he holds the spirit and honor that was thralls horde as new warchief and a True Champion and leader that only Saurfang could match in merit and skill and he can reconnect trust between the tauren and nights elves with there shared love of the land and wilds and with the help of the pandaren bridge the peace the 2 factions need to face the legion at full strength with task to bring more ogre tribes to the hordes call making them a new playable race and maybe the humans befriend the Vrykul or Furbogs from northern as new allies to fight the legion
fuck nawh bring Vol'jin bak
Rexxar was also named 'Champion of the Horde' which was only ever given to Hamuul Runetotem who's like the second leader of the Tauren as well as the other faction leaders (Cairne, Sylvannas, Vol'Jin...etc) so in my mind he's definitely qualified for the role. Plus he puts pacifism first which is pretty close to Thrall's own principles
rexxar cant be a warchief its because he is only a wanderer
even though we love him and he is worthy.. he will never accept it.. he will fight to the death for the horde or the wild if necessary.. but he will never accept being the warchief.. He's kind of a hermit.
"I have defeated Kor'gall in SINGEL combat"
Misha, some hawks and boars disagree
Even Kor'gall used his magic so it's a fair fight.
He used the forbidden magic called "Whose your Daddy"
Funny thing is, I was just playing WOW, and I found Rexxar. Yeah, you can find him in Shadowmoon valley in Draenor.
+DexterousCobra you mean Gorgrond?
+Nicholas Hall Both actually.
+Mario T (MarioTime7) wait dose that mean 2 places in one?
No. Meaning that Rexxar is in both Gorgrond and Shadowmoon Valley. And Blade's Edge Mountains
Thanks for taking so much time and effort to show us Rexxar's story. I didn't know most of it and it's been a fascinating watch.
And then Rexxar got lost in the woods and finally landed a gig where he defended the Ancients. He became more savage and he learned to throw around his axes like the total badass he is.
Rexxar is similar to Varok Saurfang to me, really cool characters despite being relatively trivial in lore.
Both need more done with them, and I agree Blizzard missed a huge opportunity with not putting Rexxar in the end of Mists, because based on his character there would be no way he could refuse helping Thrall and the Horde (not Garrosh's) in the siege of orgrimmar.
Even if Rexxar was only in one boss battle it would have been enough for me, even if it was just a tiny part like Tyrande it would have been great.
At the end when Rexxar finally kills Admiral Proudmoore, he should have said "It's ogre"...

Llllllllllllp
Lllkklkkkkkkkkllllllll
Wow, only 4 years since that joke was 10 years old...
it's ogre for you my friend
He is Mok'nathal half orc and half ogre.
Rexxar is a Mok'Nathal and Garrosh is a normal Mag'har orc yet both look very similar. Huge size and brown skin. Garrosh may not know but his father, Grom, might have been a frequent visitor of the Ogre Red Light District on Draenor. :P
No, the brown skin is something that all orcs who aren't tainted with demon blood have.
Kusomiso Kyojiin That was brown? I thought the original color was red.
Arthalos Draygon No the red orcs that you see in outlands are Fel Orcs. Their skin turned red when they drank the blood of a pit lord.
thank you noble for all the lore videos
It's good that Blizzard forgot about Rexxar, there's a great chance of them giving him an unsatisfying death if they do remember him.
Yeah remember what happened to tirion, that death was so uncalled for
All I learned from this video is that Rexxar is Batman.
Edit: 22:47 Confirmed to be Batman.
I am Batman... i mean... Mok'nathal.
Sumona Florence He's the Champion the Horde deserves, not the one it needs.
+Sumona Florence .
He literally turns into a bat at one point in the wc3 campaign so this is 100% accurate.
Great vid! Brushing up on my lore with the impending release of WOD thanks for posting it!
Hey Nobbel, you are awesome for making these man.. I say that by the heart.
Rexxar would make a good warchief though... I would like to see him as such. Well, I would like, if it was not to mean that Vol'Jin would be dead or crazy or anything... So as long as Vol'Jin is there, Rexxar will never need to be Warchief. But he would've made a good one...
I think he could be the leader of orcish troops and even become warchief during cataclism, when Thrall was busy. But he belongs to wilds and it's unlikely that he will rule the horde. Sorry for my eng >
Михаил Качалов I DO know that. He is a .... how do you translate it... Recluse?! I rather choose eremit. He is an eremit. What the hell is recluse supposed to mean? And yes, I looked that word up...
klonvomhaus I didn't use that word, what are you talking about? =)
Михаил Качалов I was wondering about a word I found in a dictionary. It is not directed to you.
me too.
Wondering the wild. He had around 20 years to reach it ;)
I started playing Warcraft 3 with Rexxar campaign and became a fan after.
Thank you for all your stories, I`ve been watching them for a while and special thanks for this one.
Keep up the good work!
I've been watching your videos since yesterday and I've watched a lot of them and I think this one is my favorite by far, awesome job!
warlords of draenor will be freakin sick. Rexxar is a beast.
oooh boy
C2Tuts 2D Game Development if you only knew what the expansion really was
XD
C2Tuts 2D Game Development damnn you where wrong :/
...
please do one of these about Sylvanas.
Nobbel it’s been 7 years since this vid. Wow is really struggling today, but it makes me happy I can come to your channel and still learn things about this IP that I missed years ago. It’s because of pep like you who help push the story of the game (Asmon hasn’t read a quest in 15 years) that it has been kept it alive. Stay strong 💪🏼
These stories adds so much life to the Warcraft franchise. Well done!
I remember leveling in vanilla, walking into Desolace from Stonetalon for the first time and I see this guy and a big bear walking down the road. Huh...weird. Next thing I know I'm dead. LOL. Just another one of those little things that made vanilla awesome.
One more reason to reroll horde i guess :)
I passed by Rexxar many times, but he never killed me. We also have some nice selfies :)
the hunter class started from this great half breed Rexar
THE ULTIMATE HUNTER!
Thanks nobbel! Awesome videos mate, I deeply appreciate you sharing such knowledge with us all. :)
Nobbel, these videos are awesome. They are a must watch.
You missed the most important part of the lore, part where his parents were killed by some criminals @_@
Wow, I never knew that the Warcraft lore was so epic. I knew that there WAS a lot of lore involved, but nothing about it any deeper than obvious surface lore in WoW. I played WoW purely for the game mechanics and stuff to do, but never ever to imagine myself a part of a story and exploring a story. If you take into account the lore of WoW and actively try to find out what is going on then I do not doubt that the experience becomes greater by a multitude.
good old times! Thank you for making these videos! These make me remember the good old times again! So good!
God I love you dude so much! this vid was awesome as any other you made!
Rexxar would make a great playable character in a Elder Scrolls-like Warcraft game.
TL;DW: Rexxar likes to go face
+Teron facehunter = cancer
Well to be fair the face is the place
This was super entertaining! Great job Nobbel!
Very good, well put together, thank you for that.
Entertained me for 1/2 hour and filled in some gaps.
You make such great videos. Don't stop!
Rexxar better play a big part in WoD
I really really hope so, he is one of my favorite characters in the warcraft lore.
I have no doubt that Rexxar will take part in Warlords, its such an important element of his story.
It's so funny reading your comments nowadays. And kinda sad.
As always Nobbel , Epic video . Thx for your efforts
Thanks for making this, I plan on playing the Hunter in Heartstone and I actually had no clue about Rexxars back story! Great video
Rexxar: "I knew this was a trap!"
Nobble: IT WAS A TRAP!
me ok
i feel like playing warcraft 3 again haha
these lore vids are amazing man! please keep them coming! :D
Excellent work Nobbel!
I'm a Horde player but sometimes i play in the alliance because my wife plays with a female gnome warlock, classical, with ponytails. Back in the original wow, when she reached lvl 40, she started doing some quests in Desolace, at the time we had mounts only at lvl 40 but she still had not (warlocks needed to do some quests in ratchet to have the first mount) and so she walked on feet to discover the region, I was reading a book but when I looked at the monitor I told him: "beware, Rexxar usually walks around ..." and she replied: "Rexxar? that hero with a bear that we play in warcraft III?" suddenly she sees a huge figure at distance, actually, two huge figures. she clicks on it and reads: "Rexxar (skull lvl) - Champion of The Horde" - immediately, she turns back and starts running the crap out of there!
hahahaa nice story
He can be found in Gorgrond , one of the zones of Draenor. So far theres no quest with him or anything.
You get quests with Rexxar if you choose the Gladiator Pit instead of lumber mill at Beastwatch. That's what my friend told me anyway.
Imperial Ace Yeah i just got a little questline with him yesterday. I dont know if it was because of the gladiator sanctum, since the one who gave me the quest was Rakhan. But still it was very cool doing a mission with him and knowing him better. It seems there are going to be more quests with him, since he tells you at the end "We will meet again" or something like that.
Imperial Ace Your friend is correct. I chose the pit, and I'm currently questing for him
Nobbel, I just want to say that I love your vids so please keep it up :)
awesome vid nobbel, cant wait for next week!!!
Lol omg, the way vol'jin looked in W3. Poor guy!
yeah they just used a standard witch doctor unit for him
***** no way
Trolls dont have last names
***** Voljin's father was Senjin, the Voljin that shows up in frozen throne is the same one in WoW. there is no second Vol'jin.
Codename Boom
Also not to be confused with Zuljin from Warcraft 2. Whom I thought was Voljin at first glance. :D
He's to the Horde, what batman is to Metropolis. Been my favorite Game Character of any game i've ever played for almost 10 years now.
Superman is for Metropolis. . . Batman is for Gotham City.
Love this! Keep it coming Nobbel
ive watched a lot of your videos and i think that u r a great story teller and have a lot of good lore speculations and ideas for future lore
I really like Sylvanas. When she has a goal, she goes for it. No matter what it takes.
this aged poorly
This aged poorly
@@Playboicaspi lol yeah......
Oh nobble just wait a few years
Wtf she killed liam greymane
OK Nobbel87! i have an amazing idea, read wow books, and make them audio books. i would pay for that!
Thx for the great videos, it's nice to learn even more about warcraft.
Awesome video! Love the lore!
I think that they should include him in the WoD Expansion...
They will.
Yeah but probably as a child is what i'm afraid of
Crimson Gorge Rexxar is around the same age of Grommosh... I doubt it.
it would be AMAZING if they add a new race Mok Nathal and new class beastmaster
Tectinally Beast Master is a Hunter spec, and Mok"nathals would be awesome they have similar skin to Ogres, and are taller and larger than other Orcs! Also Rexxar is comfirmed to be in WoD I think he'll be in Spires of Arak? Or Goreground. It's undecided on who it is. (Past or Present)
Misha looks amazing in WC3 :D
glad i finally got to sit down and watch this. I love rexxars character and so glad you did this video. With him as one of the heroes in hearthstone perhaps new players will see this and get a new love for him as well.
My lord Nobbel. You are one of the greatest people alive. REXXAR is my favorite character in almost any game. Nobbel is my favorite CZcamsr. Mix those together and you get my life being complete.
Another great video man. Keep it up. And always MOAR LORE!
Rexxar is the best
the pandareans who came to Kalimdor didnt tell anyone about where they came from? how is it possible that the horde and the alliance took so much time to discover pandaria
It seems like Chen Stormstout is A Traveler, searching for brews and other ingredients then he occasionally come back to pandaria to Bring what he discovered.
I can say this because of the Trailer of MOP.
Thank you very much for this thorough and interesting explanation. Having only played some of the original Warcraft games, I am constantly trying to catch up with the lore. I love Rexxar's character and I feel the way you do about hoping we see more of him. Lok'tar Ogar!
Awesome movie dude. Loved the story, thanks!
"LOK'TAR OGAR! VICTORY OR DEATH!"
my favourite orc frase
endermenareawesome I hav only played hearthstone ( im watching this to know more about the characters in hs ) and hav not played any other warcraft games including wow... But Garosh says "LOK'TAR OGAR" when he attacks and "VICTORY OR DEATH" when the match starts!
lol
teil show You probably found this out by now, but "Lok'tar Ogar" literally means, "Victory Or Death" in Orcish. I can only assume they restate what they said out of their orcish tongue so others knew what they were saying.
they should put him in heroes of the storm :)
yeah wit mesa
I talked about this in my dark below speculation video! Chris Metzen at the MoP launch party said that we're going to need them for what's coming next so if they didn't change their plans, we will see them in the next expansion! I hope for space adventures.
Rewatching this makes me crave an update, would love to hear your storytelling weave from pandaria to shadowlands for champion of the horde. All the love and good tidings. Loving the current content and had a blast listening to your episode of the M.O. cast. The wow creative community is a good bunch
REXXAR GOES FACE
REXXAR LIKES FACE
THAT'S MY LORE
Blizzard ignoring Rexxar in siege of orgrimmar was a big mistake.. looks like they don't even care about lore.. look at WoD..
+Velkhan i always laugh about these comments....When you write the story you ARE the lore. Blizzard cannot and has not broken the lore at all not even with the pandaren. Every time I read these posts there are books and gameplay that connects everything. If you think the lore is ruined then you just don't know the lore.
The founding of Durotar campaign. I still have very good memories of that campaign. Love WC3. Probably my favorite game ever
thank you for this!! Rexxar was my favorite part of wc3, I always wondered what happened to him and why he wasn't in Ogrimmar or something
Rexxar is the Batman of Warcraft :)
I can see how. I mean Rexxar is stoic, strong, and prefers to be alone in the wilds because of his nature and heritage. He is Definitely Batman of Warcraft.
Tank yu 4 feelin' me
And he hunts a loan ;)
but my favorite character in wow is the Lich King
yeah hes so badass
Kokainuser Hogger > Gamon > all
Who cares bout the evil bitch king? He is long dead with his bestie facebook friend Illidan! The game got to a wrong point anyway, should have been made The Scourge as a 3th playable faction ... Sadly, people likes to destroy stuff ...
Metalbear 3th? I thought it was 3rd?
Derick Forney
Fenk ju, mista inglisch nazi police!
nice man I appreciate ur work !!!
AWESOME Lore
I love your accent. The way you roll your R's is so enjoyable.
Udyr, is that you?
no, now go back to your game.
They are probably brothers
No, fuck you kid.
He was created before Udyr even saw the light of day...
And Rexxar looks like a badass - Udyr... not so much, he looks like a hobo.
That means that he needs a VU :D
I wish they made another Campaign warcraft game, I can't currently afford WoW, and playing in pirate servers doesn't add any of the expirience that an original server would.
Blu Gamer I mean to a certain extent, Udyr's spirit guard skin is pretty much his visual update (probably the reason why they wont give Udyr a VU)
42 seconds in...she knows what gon happen hehehehhe
So awesome love all ya videos man :D
Awesome videos, you have definitely the best WOW lore on youtube! :)
can you make one about Vol'jin please? He's the warchief now, so I'd definitely like to learn more about him
