- Doomguard was in warcraft 1, 2 and 3, being the very first demons in warcraft lore, originally just called “Daemons” Their general appearance has kept quite the same over the many years, but they have changed a fair bit throughout the games history.

Years ago when my first guild was fighting Lucifron, one of my fellow warlock players used Curse of Doom on one of his adds and it got the killing blow, the doomgaurd that spawned killed him before turning on the healers. I quickly dismissed my demon and enslaved it so as to prevent a wipe, then used it for the rest of the fight, man that was a good laugh for the guild.
Even has been sent to the Hall of Fame in Hearthstone. Poor little Doomguard 🥺
Good. Screw that card.
As Gul'dan stated in HOTS "When the warlock clans first formed their simple incantations it could barely summon spiders, Summoning a demon... it was merely a dream. AND BACK THEN dAEmon had an A in it, LIKE I INTENDED.... It sounds more mystical that way"
Daio the decrypted actually works up in accounting at amazon.
ghahahahaha!! :D
every video there is something obvious he doesnt pronounce correctly.

I remember back in Vanilla, I was in Iron Forge, vendoring crap when a Horde pvp Raid attacked the city. First all the Warlocks summoned Infernals and let them loose on the city, then they summoned as many Doomguards as they could and let those loose on the city. They ended up leveling the city. Despite getting annihilated by an enemy faction, I still thought it was pretty epic.
"... lost to history..." wow you have given me chills... you reminded me of Hayven Games, Rest Well
Dude, thanks to you I discovered his channel. It moved my heart what legacy he left and what has happened to him...
Thank you for passing the torch.
When WoW first came out I was like, 5, and didn't understand how to play, but my sister did play with my dad and I remember when she first got her Doomguard on her Warlock I thought she was so cool lmao.
Well, she was :D
Is she a single?
Imagine if instead of a summon it was a transformation, I love unique abilities like this and made for very different gameplay. Ah, old WoW really was something
R.I.P Permanent Infernal and Doomguard pets :(
Greenchili Studioz we’ll get them back someday
Wing ZX1103 I hope not
Aff Lock main here and I miss my d00mguard
can confirm the Doom talent does summon the doom guard if the conditions are made
Once in TOC, patch 3.2 (WotLK). I used My spell "ritual of summ doomguard".
People in The raid didnt know about what was It, so I asked em to click.
Raid Lead died, and I got kicked from The raid, but I laughed a lot 😂
Great video! I think that is Warcraft 2 with the oil/gold/lumber resources @ 0:28 & 10:42 (I'm sure the clips are just there for visuals). Warcraft 1 had just gold/lumber. Love the vids man! Keep em up, Cheers!
Technically, warlocks still have the summon doomguard spell. It can only be used at the altar in the Dreadscar Rift (legion warlock class hall), which I don't believe is accessible any longer. Every time I login, if I have an empty spot on my action bar, summon doomguard is automatically added because it's the first warlock spell in a warlock's spell book, being that it is listed on the first tab of the spell book, where racials exist.
"WHO DARES SUMMON ME?!"
When yo momma shouts your name
I remember solo'ing some of the vanilla quests for this back in the day, specifically the elite mobs in winterspring. Absolute nightmare, but odd how those memories have stuck with me all this time! :)
Oh wow, I wish they had more epic quest lines like this!
I remember in Wrath I managed to get the killing blow with Curse of Doom twice in raids and everyone starting to cheer after the boss kill only to be interrupted by (very briefly) fighting the summoned doomguard
I need Legion Demo back. Right now with 1k haste my army is... passable. Particularly in the time following Nether Portal.
At the end of Legion with optimized haste, set bonuses, and of course Artifact Weapon shenanigans, I WAS the Legion.
Yes Demo was overpowered from NH on, what's your point >.>
Legion demo was the best iteration of demo, even beating MoP demo imo
Legion Demo was terrible, lest you forget standing still and casting Demonic Empowerment after every Hand of Gul'dan, and the weird weapon traits that eventually made spamming Demonic Empowerment stronger than Shadow Bolt.
@@Kalrell I actually thought that was a pretty cool and weird interaction that changed things up.
We'd been spamming SB/DB for months, why the hell not spam a different spell?
Made me feel like I was casting my filler damage THROUGH my demons, because I was.
Hardcasting damage spells is for mages baby, we got demons to do OUR dirty work.
Daio the decrepit, not Daio the decrypted lol
I am under the impression Hiru has dyslexia.
Players: How much more fantasy stuff do you want to remove?
Blizzard: yes
pls stop
@@M4L7UZ thats why im glad they're making classic
TRAS̸H DØVE classic is trash
@@mattfahringer148 That's your opinion and there's nothing wrong with it, so is nothing wrong with not sharing it
I've been maining Warlock since WotLK. Warlocks have gained a lot of fun interesting abilities between now and then, and the vast majority of these abilities have been removed. One of these is of course, the doomguard spell. I used to heavily associate my characters identity with the fact that he used a terrorguard as his pet. Now I can't use the terrorguard, or even the doomguard, at all. I stopped playing WoW because they seem to remove everything enjoyable about my class for no good reason.
0:25 video title drop. Roll credits folks 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I wish they would just give back the grimoire to make doomguards and infernals permanent. They were my favorite. Blizz always takes away the most fun things for no reason.
Like being able to control your pet as a hunter, why was that taken out
@@Zatherothx right?
As someone who grew up playing Warcraft as my very first RTS I find it funny that each time you start talking about Warcraft 1 you show gameplay from Warcraft 2. Trolls and Ogres were not playable units in the original Warcraft. =)
Warcraft 1 is hard to get footage of. And is just.... Oof it did not age well
@@RazanaArcclaw Yah fel, you should have gotten WC1 footage!
I will fight you old man!
I was going to mention that if no one else did. The Warcraft 1 demon was monstrous in size and ridiculously powerful. The Warcraft 2 demons were pathetic in comparison. Needed Warcraft 1 footage to really drive the point home.
i remember the fond memories of the quest and also the hours of fun summoning doomguards in goldshire!
they put lot of work on this spells it seems and then they removed it makes perfect sense
Those were back in the days when WoW was meant to be an escape from reality. Now the game is just a another chore that requires you to repeat everything on new expansions.
Spells are more meaningful, and adventures reward by making you stronger. Spells back then promotes teamwork for more convenience, so as more power.
Now everyone gets everything, then repeats the process in a year.
Honestly, I think the original concept of the Doomguard is pure genius. The effect itself is so powerful, unique and fitting to the Warlock class, but at the same time limited in its use and effect by its unusual way of summoning and controlling the demon, that it renders it almost useless in serious scenarios. The spell is so niche, that most Warlocks probably wouldn't use it regularly, while still being so powerful and something prestigious many Warlocks would thrive to obtain.
It's not an ability I miss because of its importance within the game, but because of the crazy fun things this spell can cause. Its one of many removed things, that made the World of Warcraft an actual world to me.
I loved to see a mini one of these for Treant Form. I loved that skill and was sad to see it go.
In Warcraft 3, the spell Doom can't be casted on Heroes, just creeps

@@RazanaArcclaw oh xd alright nice

I used to use curse of doom on winterspring bears, and farm eye of shadow using enslaved doomgaurd to kite the big guys for eye of shadow.
Get ready for work bam new hemudex video like Damn it
Tiny Fox work is better
I remember when I was 10 I did not have bc or wotlk so I was only lvl 60 max but was placed in 50-59 AV so I was demonology and and i used a felguard/doomguard cant quite remember, use hellfire and would nearly one shot people cause so much damage. Finally was reported or something and one day was placed in 60-69 bracket. Good times.
Yaay love these videos about warlock pets!
No idea what they were thinking when they designed the talent, they put it back in the state it was back in classic except to have the spell you would have to not get something far less niche.
RIP 2004-2018 (current WoW). At least until we can tame you again in classic.
I've mained a Demo lock since late BC. I have a summoned a Doomguard only once on a Boss fight with from an add. If I've ever summoned one before, I've never noticed.
Dude. I remember the second character I ever made way back when was a Human Warlock. I forget what expansion it was. Ether BC or Wrath. But I remember the first time looking at what a Lock could do and thought it was so cool to be able to summon and command demons. I never got that far with the character but it was fun nonetheless
Now we’ve got ritual of doom in almost all of its original glory, minus the Reagent =D
Will definitely be respecing soul link when Dire Maul is released just so i can solo the satyrs in DME, to get the Ritual of Doom spell day one of the patch.
The last part of the quest requires a free action potion in order to solo, as well as some sneaky souls stone shenanegans to get to the safe spot to pull the demon.
As a person that loves to play warlock on all the private servers i've played being (vanilla, wotlk, cata, wod) private servers and now playing on retail (official wow) BFA, i can confirm that the ''Ritual of Doom'' (which originally was the name to summon the Doomguard) still exists and can still be used but now it just summons a random demon, i havent actrually been able to try out the spell since players need to be in a Summoning Platform which i guess is located on the warlock hall (same place where you summon the Chaotic Wrathsteed for the warlock mount), other than that you need 3 other players to perform this spells, which i suppose they must be warlocks too. I can only guess that the doomguard can still be summoned since the spell description is as follows: '' Performs a deadly ritual to summon a random demon. Requires atleast 3 participants.'' I personally love playing affliction but i'm sure i have seen other warlocks with a doomguard like pet on battlegrounds.
That wasn't to get a demon. In Legion evry class had a thing that would let them earn special rewards and some consumables that gived you buffs. For exemple warriors would get evry six hours a chest that spawned in a free for all arena, and you had to fight other warriors to open it. Warlocks had the ritual, that would summon a powerfull demon, that would drop consumables, part of a trasmog set, a pet and an artifact appearence for destruction.
Seriously, "Daio the decrypted"? IT'S DECREPIT
and now I don't have to scroll down any further
Great video, as usual
i love your videos.... i dont know why other ""like frost....." is so much more popular with some videos. the quality is so much better here
RIP Doomguard
Matt Daemon
I haven't really played my warlock hardly at all in BFA. I'll have to try that doom trick out.
This is changed now in Shadowlands they brought back the summoning ritual with 4 players and 1 randomly dies again like in classic
Just wanna point out a small detail. Back in 2005, i was in between the first warlocks in my server to get the ritual of doom spell, if not the first... The way i started the quest tho, was by a drop in LBRS. It was indeed a book, but the book started the quest. The quest then proceeded as you said. I got the help of my gf on her mage, and a hunter friend for Dire Maul, then i soloed the rest of the quest. It was so challenging and fun, specialy the last part. I camped near the dark portal, clearing mobs for an hour before i could pull the commander. I hope people can do this quest in classic, as it was a very memorable quest... Warlock was the best class for quests for sure!
Thanks. That was great. I didn't know half that stuff.
Cool shit dude! Love your stuff.
completely random but got a new keyboard and it has a pause play button on it
yeah but do they work?
@@Toxic-Masculinity yes
@@tylernold3427 Count yourself lucky then. May Sargeras himself carry you upon the burning corpses of your enemies, for you wield the powers of time and space themselves, you shall vanquish eternal, no top 10 is safe!
RIPIP Doomguard, never forgotten
I wish the doom spell would have a chance to summon a doomguard.. -.- never actually uses that spell nor the ritual of doom.. current doom spell would be great with it's limitations too instant and 4.8k shadow damage after 16 seconds no cooldown tho so that would need to be like idk a minute seems fine, 5% chance to summon doomguard would be cool
I was so happy when he came back in shadowlands
Back when WoW was it's own world to escape from reality, and not some chore.
The times where overpowered spell was PURPOSELY placed into the game with great cost. The days where adventure and role playing makes you stronger.
It's all about building a game that forces people to forget their real life and make weird relationships ingame.
Wl main since Vanilla, watching these vids makes me kinda sad how pruned classes are today.
Now, the guide/info may have said the daemon summoned in Warcraft 1 needed a sacrifice, but it just needed a full mana bar to cast (and even with the other supposition of the summoned unit dying would result in the caster's death was a false statement, as indicated by the "truth to this tale is questionable" part. They were also the second best units in the game simply because the Water Elemental (human equivalent summon) had one extra attack range on them, so they were marginally better.
The demon had more health and did more damage though. I remember 1 on 1 the demon would smoke the water elemental.
1:13 "the Decrypted" 😄
Can we get a Warlock Pet Doomguard "Fact or Crap"?
Just an idea for flavour here but what if doom guards only attacked things with curse of doom on them because they were very competitive and wanted to fight and kill other doomgaurds. So they are trying to kill the target before the potential foomgaurd "inside of them" can be let free
Baxter Harrington just an idea but what if you shut up
I liked it so much better in Legion when Doomguard and Infernal were cooldowns and you could pick Grimoire of Supremacy to keep them as permanent pets. Darkglare and Tyrant feel so gimmicky and are so tricky to use.
Those vids are really interesting, what ya think about doing a series for the mage?
I do have a few history videos on some mage abilities
i hope they bring back the summon ability and the talent to make it a pet instead of a guardian...
i always thought it's kinda strange that the demons in warcraft 2 (10:42 in the video) are pretty much the shittiest unit in the game, even though they look so threatening. if i remember correctly they even lost 1v1 against unupgraded archers and their hitbox was so big that if you tried to attack a unit with more than one demon at a time, their huge bodies would just block all the other demons, leaving them unable to attack with their extremely limited attack range.
The old doom would summon an enslaved or wild doomguard?
It was an hour of doom... literally. After dooming mobs in Suramar just after an hour of killing those poor unfortunate souls a Doomguard spawned. puu.sh/DAZr6/dfb97981c7.jpg Just have to add that the spell is incorrect in its text. Doomguard appeared as a hostile mob, that has to be enslaved. The duration is not 25 seconds. it has 2 spells - stomp and rain of fire.
Apparently the BFA Doom can't summon a Doomguard at all. It's just flavour text and some of the people on the warlock Discord claim it isn't even the game.
@hirumaredx is my lord and savior. Blessed be each video he posts. We are but filth, unworthy of his creations.
Katsarelas you don’t get out much do you
this is very hard way without raid group
Thought this was gonna be a lore vid
shit i remember soloing this, was so hard..expecally the first part of the dire maul
could you do a ritual of doom in classic battlegrounds? And do you keep the demon after the bg ends (for the next one)?
I literally love you
Yoooo, do a history of outlaw/combat rogues
Oh how I miss combat rogues
Can't wait to do doomguard gambling in classic. Each person pays the warlock 5g the player that dies gets 20g if the warlock dies he keeps the money and the doomguard kills the players.
Why no mention of curse of doom? I remember many bored hours putting curse of doom on wolves near goldshire hoping it would proc a doomguard to wreck town.
I would gladly trade my Demonic Tyrant out to have the Doomguard back, even if it does the exact same mechanic as the Tyrant.
Just .... how can we call ourselves demonologists and not have a pet with the iconic demon look? Wings, horns, that's where it's at. Not this Vengeance Demon-hunter-looking bullcrap.
Yeah as a demo player it pains me to not have infernal and doom guard. Tyrant is good. But just doesnt feel the same . Plus I hate the over reliance on the fel guard . Oh you need an interrupt? Hope you dont mind a dps loss and redoing your spec .
3:40 - No it didn't? It worked like any other summon spell back then.
What are you talking about. No it did not work like any other summon
Being Haraldur, I made this spell as a suggestion way back in alpha/early beta.
As for many other spell suggestions such as Shadowfury, making Corruption instant cast base-line and removing drain mana.
On top of many other warlock spells and talents.
Never received a penny from Blizzard.
You forgot bout ritual of doom
You said "Daio the decripted" hehehehe...
Dews geting 1 shot by doom, good times good times i never got a doomgard thoghe quil
You have any video about those Clase challenges? if not, can u do it?
All the have to do is add little things to wow like this. GIve me one reason why DEMONOLOGY locks dont have to go out and play pokemon with demons. theres so many different kinds make them go have to tame them like hunter pets. Hell make that go for all summons, Shadow preists, make ice mages get water elementals. TAME neptulon for all i care but make them have to go get it
Can’t wait to doomguard in vanilla!
Doom in w3 also silenced and disabled item passive,hero passive and made items unusable.
I'm still pissed that they removed the doomguard, it's fucking bullshit. Warlocks have been treated like shit since legion
Yeet
1:12 Daio the Decrypted? Decrepit!
Is Enslave Demon not a thing any more?
It is, but warlocks almost never use it anyways
A reminder of the endless parade of changes that made playing WoW too exhausting and frustrating to keep going.
@@joshuahughes9191 I understand where Bliz is coming from with the constant "evolution" to keep things fresh. At the same time, when a player settles into a favorite class and masters it, abilities and mechanics get thrown out the window every expac. Keep doing that and "It's not my class" anymore. They've destroyed it in the name of "making it better". Several times in a row. If I wanted a fresh experience, I'd play an alt with a different class. Oh, and those are all destroyed too. Lovely.
Jetson George I find you so boring that I want to shoot my self
@@mattfahringer148 Thanks for giving me something to look forward to.
Still unsubbed, but a warlock at heart from the Horde.
Love your knowledge on these topics, please more magics.
As a long term Warlock player I summoned Doomguard through the use of Doom during BfA beta. So it worked during the beta. But still having a small random chance of spawning a doomguard in a very unlikely event isn't worth it that talent. There are far better talent choices in this very row.
I still find Terrorguards cooler
Its not daio the decrypted. Its daio the decrepit. Pronounced "duh-crep-it"
decrepit not decrypted
Valithor that’s not something to joke about
