Bolvar has failed at literally everything. Got played by a black dragon. Got destroyed at Wrath Gate. Became a Lich King. Sucked as a Lich King. Incompetent as well. Got defeated by Sylvanas and he didn't even land a hit on her (even Saurfang did more damage to her than that). In Shadowlands, in nearly every raid encounter he's in, he either does nothing or gets immediately stomped. Oh, and a bad parent too. Bolvar Faildragon. Most useless character ever given a prominent title.

Tyrande, She and Jaina Proudhore are tied for just bad lore characters. Tyrande: sat on her ass while a fucking demon was humping her tree house home.
So the official lore is that Professor Arkland was brutally murdered at the troll scalping ceremony then brought back by Bolvar in exchange for giving his death knights an orientation seminar, right?
The only person who knows his true fate is Tirion. Oh and yes apparently Varian, Sylvanas, Genn Greymane and a thousand other characters because Blizzard doesn‘t know their own lore.
Holy shit i forgot that ONLY tirion knew.As bolvar said, NONE SHALL KNOW what happened here today.And somehow every character in azeroth knows what happened that day.
Yeah, they've kind of screwed up a lot of things in the more recent lore. Remember when Thrall was actually a likeable character and not stupidly OP Green Jesus?
Yes. And from cata till shadowlands is longer than from Vanilla to cata. So thrall was Green Jesus for longer than he wasnt. But who tf cares, im alliance so i dont have a lot to do with thrall
In one of the older novels Sylvanas went back after we killed Arthas and seen that there is a new Lich King. So she knew basically from the beginning about Bolvar. And regarding Alliance I really doubt that organization like SI:7 wouldn't check the top of the citadel just to be sure. So I don't see that big of a problem with that. And don't forget that Varian a Genn are still rulers so they should be very well informed, it's not like every common soldier knows that.
How did her arrows pierce Saronite and how did the Horsemeen seemingly just dissappear for one single day thinking "God, we've done nothing since we woke up, let's find something to do" and that's when Sylvanas shows up.
There was a story story. The whole of the Knights of the Ebon Blade were on their way to Icecrown because they felt something was up with Bolvar calling back so many undead. They got there to see what happened to him after they felt the release of the helm from their minds
I will be so mad if Sylvanas actually a covered up "good guy" and she'll make Talia Lich Queen somehow bc "there will always be a lich king/jailer etc. etc."
@@blindeyedblightmain3565 listen Shadowlands and BFA's story already make me wanna throw up if this is where this shit leads too I will personally invest my college tuition into Morhaime's new studi
Seems like this is the direction they're taking with all the White, Man hating workers they have on the Dev and Story board teams. Wouldn't surprise me at all at this point.
Gonna be real... I got their intention with Sylvanas and Bolvar but it still and continues to make him look like a wimp, there would have been nothing wrong with him getting in a few punches if she absolutely needed to break the glass ceiling of the universe.
@@NiklasMJ Well she did put up a trap didn't she? The chains were basically a trap. Interestingly it does seem as though she didn't even bother trying to kill him, right? so yeah.
Yeah, all he did was yeet a saronite spike at her, I haven't watched the cinematic in a little while but I think that's the only hit he managed to get in.
Thanks to the Legion Campaign for Death Knights, the player character can actually attack them, turn hostile, and lose rep with them. I went all the way to hated. I can't do *anything* near Argent controlled places without getting aggro'd. Its great for immersion!
Platinum WoW you are such a god tier level creator honestly, it's like mixing Nixxiom animation quality with the story telling of Nobbel mixed with all your own personal flair and passion rolled together into an amazing video, especially loved your biggest losers in Azeroth mini series, keep making great videos man!
First time he gets off his throne to do something. Gets instantly merked by screaming banshee with 0 motivation for what she is doing. Good story arc.. lol
And how did she beat him to a pulp you ask? Magical power up granted to her off-screen by character that we haven't seen and that's barely even mentioned anywhere Sylvanas being stronger than Lich King Bolvar? Just not convincing in any capacity
@@phoivos Who now apparently orchestrated everything all along and Arthas was his puppet (totes not the burning legion it seems). We'll most likely we'll find out that he's actually being played by the Legion as a puppet or some bullshit.
I just love how Tirion ask light for one last help, and then, when he do same thing in Legion, the light doesn't answer cuz this was the last time :) small things I guess
Bolvar had his best days in classic. Remember him fighting against Onyxia's Minions. He solo'd eight of them he did alone where some 40 Player Raids had problems with one.
This reminded me of the bs that was the Sylvanas vs Lich King fight Like seriously, we do know that the Lich King himself isn't all that powerful and it is the combined might of the Scourge that is the biggest threat but there were a fuck ton of undead there with him and it just feels like the win was handed to Sylvanas too easily. That being said the scene where she rips the helm of domination in half is pretty cool, even if its basis is some wobly new lore that was "always there guys, for sure, you just never noticed, god we are so clever *pushed up glasses* " and yeah. Fucking atrocity that was.
If Blizz really wanted to make Sylvanas disenchant the Helm of Domination, they should've made Sylvanas' win a close one. But apparently whoever is writing the story feels the need to insert their Sylvanas fanfic in the lore.
I remember Nazgrim was one of those npcs that just pops up in different places in each expansion. Its really sad to see him die, but cool that he made it to general.
The tease of Tirion becoming the new leader of the four horsemen was so infuriating. That would have been the most interesting thing they'd ever done in the lore. Unfortunately I think it was just too major of an event to be contained to an order hall campaign. Tirion being raised as a DK would have pissed off like 80% of Azeroth, and consequences would be unavoidable. Thinking about how interesting DK Tirion could have been always saddens me a little. Felt like a huge missed opportunity.

@Platinum wow got a tiny piece of lore wrong that would have made for a hilarious edit in the video. You see while we death knights could have gone and murdered every single dragon for the achievement Unholy Determination, it was a hidden achievement and because the quest was 1 time per DK a lot of people missed it so Blizzard retroactively removed it. We player characters are such murder hobos that we would commit genocide for an hidden achievement medal that was going to be taken away regardless of what we did or not. Love your videos! (Hi Asmongold)
We are crazy murder hobos. We slaughter everything we come across. More blood stains our hands than the entirety of all the factions combined. The Jailer should *want* us in particular to stay on Azeroth. All we ever do is send him an endless supply of souls.
Literally dude, you are the best wow youtuber rn. You remind me of old wowcrendor. You seem to be a very genuine person who does this because they love it. Keep it up man, you should make merch so we can support you
The Four Horsemen actually destroy a Legion army that attempted to kick Illidan and Co off the island. According to the quest only the Ebon Blade have the forces strong enough to stop that army. So they made a big difference in the war but no one really saw it. Also the achievement to slaughter the dragons never was removed.
What kind of person can dislike this kind of content? Detailed story with humor and good editing, why do they do that 🤔. On topic, i don't like how they trashed Bolvar vs Sylvanas, just because reasons
A little mistake. At 4:45 you say we didn't know what happened to Bolvar until icc came out. But in the yog fight, you see him get tortured in a vision. Excellent video though, as always :^D
Now we need an update video for Bolvar and Taelia's conversations. Where, in every one, she calls him a bitch for saving the world and that he's a bad father for not telling her. And his reply is basically the "yes dear" meme.
I mean, its World of Warcraft. He probably *just* died from the scalping and rezzed from the spirit healer like most players... Oh wait Bwansamdi most likelytaunted him for a while first. I keep forgetting that as an Alliance player.
Oh! That's who the new Lich King is! I just remember this guy showing up at the end of the Icecrown Citadel raid, but I had no idea who he was, what he was doing there and why he became the new lichking.
@Platinum Wow this video series are amazing. I can't event imagine how much time do you invest into making them. And in the end the viewer doesn't even notice and can't appreciate your craft because of how well scenes\elements are put together. It is just so seamless. Thank you for your work.
Wimp?! Bolvar was the total opposite of wimp. I started playing during the classic times. One memory that I will never forget was of Bolvar soloing Onyxia's Guards. Put it this way, if you weren't careful and got caught up in one of their cleaves, you're dead. And maybe if you're lucky, you didn't have to restart that quest. Bolvar must have soloed 8 of them.
"Was Bolvar that weak the entire time?" Me:"no,no is just that Blizzard simp for Shylvana so now she is op because yes. Is literaly Canon, blizzard simp for her and now she is stronger, feeding her power from her simp souls"
Absolutely love your videos; ever thought of doing more of these "lesser known" main characters of Warcraft, mainly told in short-stories? Such as where Varian went and why, Kel'Thuzad got some pretty li(t)ch lore too!
i have recently began watching his material and i got to say it is some of the best lore telling i have ever heard/seen he keeps his audience attention by damn near grabbing you by the jaw and going bro check this stuff out did you see this, or betcha didn't know that. every video is packed with info that not only relates, but adds a different and new perspective on the point of view of the player, npc, and dev bravo bro and keep it up you have a wow fan here my man
10:40 Lady Liadrin did not "fill the room with light" she said it herself, the light would not allow them to claim Tirion and nuked their asses. Also the whole thing was a test for Morgrain.
Which otherwise would have killed everyone.yes cannonically it was true.in all fairness it was for Darion himself to understand or atleast feel worthy of being the leader of the horsemen. But it was said in this way cause it makes more sense and is way funnier
not really, it seems like blizzard has slowly started putting the pieces back together again and i really hope this will reflect in shadowlands or else I was wrong and I will kill myself
@@_________-_______ after taking into perspective latest blizzard-Activitision news you probably are wrong, but on a good side there is no need to be suicidal about it. At least for now.
Hey man. I congratulate you on your success I am glad to see your channel have grown. Take care of yourself and be safe. Sincere thanks for all your content man.
I never really believed Bolvar was that strong as the LK in the first place, first of all, Frostmourne is gone, as well as the millions of souls within it, which we can assume was a LOT of Arthas' power, the helmet was always more of a "Now you can control massive undead legions and lots of cool shadow powers", making him substantially weaker than Arthas, also there's the idea that Bolvar just didn't have full control of the helmet, considering It seems like Bolvar spent every second wearing the helm FIGHTING its control over him. All Bolvar wanted to be was a Jailor of the Undead (Ironically), so it makes a lot of sense why N'zoth/Jailor juiced Sylvanas beat him.
I guess they really wanted to show off Sylvanas power in the SL cinematic but i feel like they didnt have to humiliate Bolvar to do that. He could have gotten some punches in and then she used her agility to get the helmet off him and then break it instead of literally using her banshee magic to manhandle him.
@@julianb4157 to a native English speaker. But I dare you to try and pick out another languages regional accents without prior insight. Same principle applies.
I think you're missing the point, @Morec0. The sounds made by someone from Yorkshire and those made by someone from Texas are very different, even though they're theoretically speaking the same language. I wouldn't criticise a non-native speaker for not knowing where each one was from. I also wouldn't criticise a non-native speaker who thought the Yorkshire/Texan were not talking in the same language. But I would be very surprised if that non-native thought the Texan and Yorkshire person sounded alike and indistinguishable, though. My Spanish is embarrassingly basic, but it's not hard to hear there's a difference between someone from Barcelona and someone from Lima. In the same vein, orcs from various places could sound as dissimilar to each other as someone from Texas and Yorkshire do.
Bolvar watched kingdoms fall, has died on the field of battle, then risen to be tortured, mutilated, and he becomes the new jailer of the damned. But him getting annoyed when you tap the ice-window makes him a douche?

Absolutely love your videos; ever thought of doing more of these "lesser known" main characters of Warcraft, mainly told in short-stories? Such as where Varian went and why, Kel'Thuzad got some pretty li(t)ch lore too!
I heard that part of why Bolvar gets his ass kicked is that the jailer controls the power in the crown and wanted him to lose.
Blizzard is just making up whatever nonsense fits their narative of sylvanas being the strongest in whatever situation she gets put into
@@animalm4st3r it is there game i guess they can do that ?lol
That temporal discombobulator bit was very well done. You do some of the best editing I’ve ever seen for any Warcraft youtuber. God bless you.
Is there a perfect channel? - the answer is yes.
i have recently began watching his material and i got to say it is some of the best lore telling i have ever heard/seen he keeps his audience attention by damn near grabbing you by the jaw and going bro check this stuff out did you see this, or betcha didn't know that. every video is packed with info that not only relates, but adds a different and new perspective on the point of view of the player, npc, and dev bravo bro and keep it up you have a wow fan here my man
10:40 Lady Liadrin did not "fill the room with light" she said it herself, the light would not allow them to claim Tirion and nuked their asses. Also the whole thing was a test for Morgrain.
Which otherwise would have killed everyone.yes cannonically it was true.in all fairness it was for Darion himself to understand or atleast feel worthy of being the leader of the horsemen.
But it was said in this way cause it makes more sense and is way funnier
The editing. Wondrous!
12:36 Excellent hair meme Platinum
I have never seen a better use of Earthbound sound effects.
The mad man he did “I just want to be happy”
madseason and platinum wow uploading on the same day
Me: what a glorious day it is
Good job on Asmongold hair, it was priceless to see him being shocked to see it the second time. :)
I cut the tip of my finger off at work minutes before you uploaded this video. Definitely made my day a little better.
Being a carpenter, I know the struggle. Hope everything will be alright man
"Tell them only, that the lich king is dead and blizzard games died with him"
not really, it seems like blizzard has slowly started putting the pieces back together again and i really hope this will reflect in shadowlands or else I was wrong and I will kill myself
@@_________-_______ after taking into perspective latest blizzard-Activitision news you probably are wrong, but on a good side there is no need to be suicidal about it. At least for now.
@@blindeyedblightmain3565 "at least for now" bingo
Basically the reason why I will never play WoW again
Wow I haven't heard that joke every month for the last 10 years. Where did you hear THAT from?
Why is the human thumbs up animation so great? I laugh everytime I see it
That earthbound meme hit so hard
Hey man. I congratulate you on your success I am glad to see your channel have grown. Take care of yourself and be safe. Sincere thanks for all your content man.
Can't wait for the rematch vs sylvanas where he knocks her head into the sun team rocket style.
We all know thats not gonna happen
we all know that wasnt arthas she defeated.
Bolvar will die in this expansion so say goodbye to that fake lich king
@@szymonkalinski3014 he wasnt fake.. he just didnt have Frostmourne which gave arthas a huge power boost.
@@arkadious9320 Arthas didnt have shadowmourne aswell
Your video editing has gotten so damn good. Love the Professor!
6:59 high art. High, high art.
Love this video, worth the wait! Went perfectly with my coffee!
3:52 You mean an "alleged" rogue group of forsaken.
edit: timestamp
Dude, your videos are such high quality for how regularly you upload. Great work, this is one of my favorite channels right now
1:33 can ANYONE tell me the name of the song? Could definitely use it in a personal edit.

Our Boy Bolvar needs to put some armour on.
I never really believed Bolvar was that strong as the LK in the first place, first of all, Frostmourne is gone, as well as the millions of souls within it, which we can assume was a LOT of Arthas' power, the helmet was always more of a "Now you can control massive undead legions and lots of cool shadow powers", making him substantially weaker than Arthas, also there's the idea that Bolvar just didn't have full control of the helmet, considering It seems like Bolvar spent every second wearing the helm FIGHTING its control over him. All Bolvar wanted to be was a Jailor of the Undead (Ironically), so it makes a lot of sense why N'zoth/Jailor juiced Sylvanas beat him.
I guess they really wanted to show off Sylvanas power in the SL cinematic but i feel like they didnt have to humiliate Bolvar to do that. He could have gotten some punches in and then she used her agility to get the helmet off him and then break it instead of literally using her banshee magic to manhandle him.
lesson learned: tauren are chill even in death
All your videos are amazing!!!!
"Now go, leave this place and never return"
250 Invincible runs later...
I just wanted to say I love all your videos and watching them makes my day better. Thankyou for making these.
To be fair, the orcs should sound similar to each other!
There's only so many ways to do deep, gruteral, and growly.
Like the way English speakers sound similar? It's so hard to tell there's a difference between someone from Cornwall, Yorkshire and Texas ...
@@julianb4157 to a native English speaker.
But I dare you to try and pick out another languages regional accents without prior insight.
Same principle applies.
I think you're missing the point, @Morec0.
The sounds made by someone from Yorkshire and those made by someone from Texas are very different, even though they're theoretically speaking the same language.
I wouldn't criticise a non-native speaker for not knowing where each one was from. I also wouldn't criticise a non-native speaker who thought the Yorkshire/Texan were not talking in the same language.
But I would be very surprised if that non-native thought the Texan and Yorkshire person sounded alike and indistinguishable, though.
My Spanish is embarrassingly basic, but it's not hard to hear there's a difference between someone from Barcelona and someone from Lima.
In the same vein, orcs from various places could sound as dissimilar to each other as someone from Texas and Yorkshire do.
Wow kinda racist Boomerwow ;)
I reallllllly hope Bolvar get's a big big important role in SL. I know he helps but it would be nice to feel like DKs have an actual leader again.
Bolvar watched kingdoms fall, has died on the field of battle, then risen to be tortured, mutilated, and he becomes the new jailer of the damned.
But him getting annoyed when you tap the ice-window makes him a douche?
the freaking berserk guts theme was perfect with the Bolvar jaina edit xD
Say what you will about Bolvar, but he's one of the good one's.
Dude your vids are awesome. More current videos though please! Yours are the best lore videos, but I really want to learn more about modern lore, Ty!
I haven’t laughed this hard since Rick turned himself into a pickle
Funniest shit I've ever seen.
low-key would love the credit panel as an actual background picture, it's pretty serene haha.
1:34 meme name please.
