Lore For Noobs - Warchiefs of the Horde

- The first Orc to hold the title of Warchief since the beginning of the orcish civil wars on Draenor, was the chieftain of the Shadowmoon Clan, the great shaman known as Ner'zhul. Ner'zhul was tricked into uniting the orcs of Draenor, into a single force by the demon lord, Kil'jaeden the Deceiver, who then later relieved Ner'zhul of his power and made sure Ner'zhul couldn't do anything to ruin the demon's plans for the newly formed Horde.
Blackhand, Chieftain of the Blackrock Clan was given the title, by the orc warlock Gul'dan, Kil'jaeden's new servant, and former apprentice of Ner'zhul. Gul'dan needed a puppet, knowing he wasnt good enough with people to be Warchief himself, but still wanting to have control in secret, working with his Shadow Council to make sure Kil'jaeden as well as his own plans succeeded.
Blackhand's rule though, was short lived. The mighty warrior, Orgrim Doomhammer, who also was a part of the Blackrock Clan, found out just exactly what Blackhand and Gul'dan were up to, and didn't like it one bit. Orgrim Doomhammer took up his mighty Banhammer, and slew Blackhand, and after that he found the Shadow Council and slaughtered them too, leaving only Gul'dan alive.
Orgrim Doomhammer had taken control of the Horde, and lead them through the Eastern Kingdoms, conquering most of the south. Upon reaching Lordaeron, Orgrim finally faced major resistance from the Alliance, which at the time was a union of the human kingdoms throughout Lordaeron. The war between the Horde and this Human Alliance was called the Second War, and in the end Orgrim and the Horde were defeated because of a treacherous move by Gul'dan, forcing Doomhammer to split his forces in the worst time imaginable, sending off the Black Tooth Grin clan to hunt down the traitor.
After Orgrim's defeat, the Horde was shattered, and he was imprisoned for a short time, and escaped to live in exile for many years. One day, he found the son of his old friend Durotan, who was now called Thrall, and in a battle where both of them fought for the freedom of the orcs, Doomhammer passed to him the title of Warchief and gifted him his own hammer and black plate armor.
Today, Thrall has given the title to the young Mag'har orc, Garrosh Hellscream, son of Grom Hellscream. Who has only just used his newly found power, to wage war against the Alliance once more. Only time will tell if he will make a fit Warchief, and if he'll bring honor and glory back to the Horde.
The title, Warchief, has through the years evolved into more than just a leader in the war efforts of the orcs, it has become the highest leader of the Horde, both in political matters as well as war. - Zábava
This was way better than the previous shorter videos. Thanks for adding the extra ~minute :)!
The extra 30 seconds really does make it feel much longer. Thank you and keep up with this good series.
You need to update this with Vol'Jin
Agreed
He needs to update it to sylvanas*
He needs to update it to Nomy.
Great episode! Love it, keep it up!
Oooohh wheres the Intro :(. I liked it when you said "Hi this is pride.. and this is lore for noobs..". Everytime it made me smile^^!
Why is it i pay more attention to this then my history class?
nice job slowing down, it makes a big differnece , thanks Pride
this was a good ep haha didnt feel short at all xD
hey, so I was looking for a video that describes how every warchief title was passed on to the next, up to date with the banshee queen . any chance you could do that?
Orcs' roots are actually rooted far more in shamanism and an atunement with the spirits. It wasn't until they became tangled up with the Burning Legion that they started becoming blood thirsty conquers. Garrosh's bloodlust is going to undo everything that Thrall worked to accomplish, which is exactly why he's the last boss in MoP.
@OMFGcata
I would like to know where u get the pictures used for your cards. Some of them are amazing and I seem to remember them from the WC2 manual but some other ones I really can't recognize!
Thank you for your great work Pride!
Good ol Garrosh. Lots of people hate him but Thrall was making too much progress with calming the tension between the Horde and the Alliance. They had to make Garrosh warchief to keep the game interesting. And so far. I'm loving it. MoP is so epic!
@Ziztran Fair enough. I just remember Mor'ghor being referred to as "Warchief", and assuming Bladefist was killed in Outland I figured he may have taken his place as the leader of the Fel Horde, since that's what the title of Warchief implies.
I think it would be worth while to mention it was the assassination of Durotan by Gul'dan's minions that really set Doomhammer on his path to usurp Blackhand.
I've never heard that orcs are supposed to conquer lands and shit before
Thrall founded Orgrimmar, he named it after Orgrim Doomhammer, and he named Durotar after his father Durotan.
@OMFGcata Also, most leaders in the game are dual classes, or classes that cannot be played, thrall fought in gladiator matches and had to learn how to use and wear plate armor to survive making him basically a warrior/shaman, the troll leader, who's name i cannot remember is a shadow hunter which when broken down mechanics wise makes him a spreist/hunter. There are other combos out there I'm sure but those two really stick out with me when I'm asked about why the leaders are so different.
In the not too distant future, Garrosh is going to be killed by members of the Horde and Alliance.
"Upon entering one of the portals, Ner'zhul and his followers were immediately captured by Kil'jaeden. The Elder Shaman was torn apart, though his spirit was kept alive. Agreeing to enter into the service of the demon once more, Ner'zhul was bound to the Frozen Throne.... Ner'zhul would rule the Scourge alone until his merger with Arthas Menethil. Ner'zhul's fate, with the death of Arthas and Bolvar Fordragon's rise as the Lich King, is currently unknown" wowwiki
Short: yes, controlling a body
@NarutoShikamaruKiba where did you get that info? In warcraft orcs and humans you (playing as doomhamer) kill blackhand and take control of the horde way before stormwind is razed. But i would love to see were you got the info send me the link.
Garrosh has no reason to hate the alliance he didn't even know of them until the black portal opened. Garrosh is just a bloodthirster only waging war as it pleases himself. and the Alliance is the only ones that can give him the resistance for him doing what himself pleases. Garrosh is basically a child with an army.
more of these please :
Yeah...I got that..land. My point still stands, though. Orcs were peaceful and nomadic on Draenor before their meeting with the Burning Legion and drinking the demon blood. Though they were at war with the ogres for a bit, but it wasn't about conquering ogre land.
why did Thrall not ress grom? x)
and can you make a vid about Cairne Bloodhoof please? :)
i said please :))
he didn't gift his armor and hammer.... he gave it to him when he was about to die
@vynarazz
And besides gameplay/lore issue Thrall not just a shaman, but a warrior as well (remember his years as a gladiator in Durnholde).
Ogrimm Doomhammer took up his mighty banhammer. Best phrase ever
Who would make a better Warchief? Rexxar or Drek'Thar?
Basic Campfire for Warchief!!
good to know this stuff, haven't been 100% sure of everything but now i have it confirmed :)
@OMFGcata I second that but I think you forgot bout Brox's daddy :D Varok known to wider audience as High Overlord Saurfang
@vynarazz the armor is mail, it looks like plate but its mail...and if it is plate cause u may be so convinced, he can wear it cause he is soooo bad ass
@Reyson01 Never once did it say he took the title Warchief before Guldan/blackhand being the warchief(unless you can find it and prove me wrong) And nerzhul wasn't made the Lichking until many years later. He had actually become the Warchief after the Horde in azeroth had been defeated. After losing this war, he was captured by kiljaeden and then made the Lich king. at this time there was another Warchief.....Rend in Azeroth.
pff cairne should have been the warchief
do one for the goblins of kezan!
pretty sure Guldan made up Warchief for Blackhand and Nerzhul becomes the 3rd Warchief.....that you didn't talk about.
You also got Rend who is Warchief of the Dark Horde and whats-his-face in outland as Warchief of those Orcs.
All of those Orc clans had remained apart of the Horde until they were all split off so technically they are all still the Horde....in their own way, making those Warchiefs actual real warchiefs.
Garrosh is unfit to be warchief. Replace him with Vol'jin so the trolls can be the dominant race of the horde, and we'll have a fit leader.
I think it's time to make a Lore for Vol'Jin
Hmm perhaps you could have done with some info on how garrosh was given the title. The one time world event does not help those who came after.
Ner'zhul was the Lich King until Arthas took up Frostmourne and the Helmet of Dominion or whatever, then it was Arthas + Ner'zhul, but I think Arthas's spirit was more dominate than Ner'zhul's.
People don't get that a non orc Warchief will never stand Varok Saurfang is the only logical choice.
What if blizz did a raid of horde vs alliance that would be soo coool
I guess you don't mind if I correct you a tad? The sane, and respectable part of the Horde wants him gone. As proven by the comment you replied to, the less sane and less than respectable ones in the Horde probably like him. Or even admire him.
The Horde and Alliance won't get anywhere if we keep warring with each other.
When I left WoW Thrall was still Warchief... I think it's time to return to WoW then...
Yes, I do play HoN.
Thanks for asking Pride.
Isn't Grom supposed to be overthrown in the next expansion ?
woot!!
i love you!
@OMFGcata you should do a "pride plays hon" video!!!
Transcribe audio makes me more laugh then anything else :D
orcish civil war = orchestra war
ner'zhul = their school
Horde = port
Gul'dan = golden
Blackhand's rule = black and role
Orgrim Doomhammer = or hundred-member
I could continue quite some time with this ^.^
because he believed that Garrosh didn't deserve to lead it. Well guess what he was 100% right now wasn't he?
Personally, i see Garrosh ressurecting somone with his newly found powers that you find out about in Dagger in the Dark scenario... i think it would be amazing if he were to bring back his father, or even Cairne Bloodhoof.... If he brought back his father, he would probably get his ass kicked for doing all that he's done to the horde... Also, if he were to bring back cairne, that would just be beautiful.... if he werent brough back to be slave to Garrosh.... just a skeptic...Considering he's
where r the gnome cards at?
I think that Saurfang should be the new warchief
Make Broxigars lore he was a beast
and then theres ner'zhul who betrayed the horde in order to seek his own salvation and power only to end up being tortured to death by the very person who manipulated the orcs in the first place, kil'jaeden. ner'zhul is simply put the bin laden of warcraft, he ran away from the humans and killed his followers to be more discreet, a coward basicly.
@seetherude he is also in nagrand. its weird isn't it
You should have mentioned the Warchiefs of the other hordes. Kargath Bladefist and Mog'hor of the Fel Horde, Rend Blackhand of the Dark Horde.
if you want hot blood and rage, go and join the dark horde or even better then fel horde
He was like Hitler because he was elected and because WC1 orcs army is made by orcs only (except summoned units). Orgrim did worse to his fellow orcs. Blackhand was agree with blood curse and was a genuine ally of Gul'dan, Orgrim wasn't agree but he still tried to use Gul'dan and that caused civil war in the middle of the invasion. And when the war was nearly lost he ambushed Lothar's peace embassy: he could just give back all conquered lands, instead horde lost even the dark portal.
Thrall deserves a better BA rating.
@NarutoShikamaruKiba Hence why it's called "Lore for Noobs." You want details, go look up the lore on a lore site.
basically a bunch of hot heads.
Go alliance.
Ner ' zul never held the title of Warchief. Blackhand was elected the first warchief during the war with the draenei after having lead alot of the attacks on the draenei.
didn't i already see this, but with slightly different words?
i taught Durotan was the father of Trall and that`s how Trall named Durotar
Vol´jin is the real Warchief !
Can we get the Banshee Queen as the Warchief please?
NO!!!!!
*Vol'Jin* I speak for da Horde.
this was fucking awesome, blizzard could you a guy like you.
garrosh will never be a proper warchief, he likes fighting too much
I think a tauren war-chief would be good because they are good at political and war matters.
why is garrosh still in northrend and also in org
@OMFGcata JESSE YOU ARE AWSOME :b
If God of War taught us anything it certainly is that brute force will always prevail. Of course Garrosh will win this war, even by himself if needed.
Cenarius became revived somehow
@Snakerecon28
hon is basically 5 heroes fighting each other while killing creeps until you kill the main building it looks stupid but once you play it 0.o only WoW can top it
FOR THE HORDE!
yes
Although he is dead so now I'm lost.
@McandJr now they are :D
Blackhands rule was short lived? it was atleast 5 years i think the dranai wars weren't that short.
the last boss in Pandaria...
@MrDylan0803 All orcs like fighting.
aww you fixed the warcheif
Vol'jin for warchief mon!
@vynarazz its a plastic black plate lol
Dunka Dunka
y-y-you forgot something, something important. God what was it, it's someting really... oh yeah, all the events leading to the creation of the new horde (aka, Warcraft 3)!
@MrDylan0803 Thrall was raised by Humans who forced him to fight.
because garrosh killed his fellow druids.
why doesnt thrall have 10 BA rating?
1:07 Look at each of their numbers.....6-6-6 :O
Nope, Garrosh is going to be doubled teamed by the horde and alliance at the end of MoP.
Sure, he is a great tactician, but he's hot headed and has no concerns for the rest of his allies.
He would of been a great leader if there was an all out war with the alliance, but he shouldn't of started one in the first place.
you said Durotan was now called Thrall...Durotan was Thrall's father
SAURFANG FOR WARCHIEF!!!
dont åæay HoN but loves to watch commentarys of it
What if sylvanas resurrects garish
@bestgamer2112 Not true, there's love tensions between him and Aggra, but no one says they're mates yet.
1:56 > Durotan > "Maried to Draka". Im so troll D:
whats HoN?
