    Honestly? It makes no sense. Why would Garrosh who had 0 magic allow Thrall to use magic? This seems to me that writers were bought by Thrall propaganda team.

    I feel like the reason why people legitimately believed that thrall cheated was because Thrall didnt start using his elemental powers until after Garrosh was gaining the upper hand during the duel. Maybe if he used his powers from the beginning people wouldnt mark thrall as a "Cheater".
    That plus Patrick Seitz's voice acting was very intense and emotional, making it easier to side with Garrosh.

    I mean yeah, after all Thrall used his elemental powers in the Mak'gora in the WotLK prepatch against Garrosh then. I think it was because of how his powers went on the fritz afterward that made people think he cheated, but that was due to the emotional turmoil created from the fact that Garrosh was right that Thrall was partially to blame for everything Garrosh did.

  • @poquu1081
    @poquu1081 Před měsícem +2

    I never understood while everyone claims thrall cheeted.
    - The only source that claims you cant use magic in makgora is from a movie that was not sticking to the established canon in many cases, but for some reason when it came to makgora rules everyone is like YEP its in the movie so its canon.
    - Thrall was already in makgora vs garrosh in wotlk and he was using elements + weapon in front of the whole orgrimmar and nobody said anything about cheating then.
    - There is a comic (canon) that had makgora duel where they used magic.

  • @CitizenKahne1992
    @CitizenKahne1992 Před měsícem +1

    I still don’t get why people are so up in arms about this. Thrall never cheated. The rules of the Mak’gora are clear: there are no rules except those the combatants agree to. It’s a test of honor as much as it is a test of skill and strength. If one party declares “Mak’gora!” and doesn’t lay out ground rules at the start, then it’s anything goes, no holds barred, magic included.
    The only thing that seems to be strictly forbidden is the use of poison, probably because it’s considered dishonorable.

  • @Lupinemancer87
    @Lupinemancer87 Před měsícem +4

    • @Skollshorties
      @Skollshorties  Před měsícem +1

      Garrosh wanted Thrall to use his elemental powers against him just like in their first duel. Thrall didn't want to use it because he was hoping he could spare Garrosh. But Garrosh was a lunatic that needed to be put down.
      Also shamanism is heavily orcish. So that was very orcish.

    • @jmcghane
      @jmcghane Před měsícem

      @Skollshorties Garrosh needed to be put down, but if Thrall was going to use his powers in the first place, then why even bother doing the Mak'gora. The rules didn't say that Thrall couldn't use shamanistic powers, but let's be for real. Everyone knows that Mak'gora basically means: 1v1, no armor, and with no help of any kind, which means no spell weilding powers.

    • @Skollshorties

    Both sides had their own faults.
    Thrall was too hasty in making Garrosh the War chief that even when Garrosh didn't think he was worthy Thrall basiclly went "Nah, you got this. I believe in you and you'll have my friends to back ya up." Then ran off. (I get the situation at the time needed him to be there. But come on Thrall really?)
    Garrosh did the best he could with what little he had which sadly honestly could've been better in plenty of cases. Didn't help that all of Thrall's allies didn't really believe he'd be an effective War Chief either.
    Both sides had screw ups.
    The difference is one accepted the results that came from their choices and would correct them.
    The other side showed no signs of changing their ways, and even in Shadowlands proved that even in death they didn't accept the consequences of their actions.

    There never was any cheating. It's like forcing a Mage to fight a Death Knight or a Warrior with only a sword. And despite that...the very fact that Thrall was able to use the elements AT ALL means that they were always on his side. Otherwise, they would not answer the summon.

      ​@@Skollshorties That's a fair point but my only issue is regarding the concept of unreliable sources per se.
      Either a source is reliable or it isn't, it can't be both. In my opinion the chronicles as a whole anthology isn't, and giving credit to some things and not to others may be perceived as "cherry picking".
      Also, Chronicles chapter4 might be the one with more blatant mistakes/conflicting information since it is relating to a period of warcraft's history that every player can still experience in-game, and it is unaceptable that someone allowed it to be released without any seemingly competent proof reading.
