Aye It is said Prophet Velen is the oldest living being even older than any Night elves but I'm not sure where that falls in line with trolls. Velen would be around 30,000 years old by now possibly. But the trolls are the oldest playable race from •Azeroth• at any rate :D
Every source says the troll empires are older than the draenei, even if you came from space you arent older than the dudes who literally evolved alongside dinosaurs
For real you can become really big on youtube man. There's definitely a need for streamlined and short(ish) lore vids like these. And the timing is perfect since wow is also becoming more beginner friendly itself. Keep it up and you'll make it!!! I'm already a fan and hooked. Can't wait for the next one.
lol well, again, thanks a lot for watching. very happy that so many people are discovering and enjoying the videos . next one is a gonna take a bit since i didnt play MoP
I am LOVING these lore videos! I stopped playing after WotLK, but still care about the story, so your vids are an amazing way to catch up - keep up the amazing work!!
One can easily argue the quality of the expansions after work, but the long form story telling is on point. From Warcraft 1, to WoW: Dragonflight, Blizzard has kept the story going turn for turn, beat for beat quite organically. I'm pretty sure less than a hundred years have passed in total? Not accounting for the ancient lore obviously.
@@Lawllin I was actually a newbie for this RPG but I'm playing my own emulator hahaha Trying to check all quest on each corners of azeroth, still at classic tbh but getting some ideas on your videos how it would end
I love this video! I hope someday you'll do the other races, after watching this video I tried looking up Tauren lore but haven't been able to find a video as interesting and easy to watch as this one!
Ive watched your "all the lore" videos and I hope you continue making them. Im a new player and Ive had to watch all youre lore videos plus even bought the Ultimate Visual Guide to really understand most of whats happening!
Man... Awesome videos you got. I was pretending to do these Warcraft lore based videos here in Brazil and I am looking for informations, found your channel... GOOD LUCK mate and a... new subscriber here.
Trolls, vulpera, and pandas are the oldest playable races and it's not even close. They existed long before there was a draenor or even dragon aspects. Sure the dragons existed but they were still just proto dragons the titans hadnt even been to azeroth yet. The void and elementals were the only ones here with them. The dwarfs are pretty old too but they evolved from the earthen and gnomes came from mechagnomes.
Are you going to do a lore video of all of the elves (Night, High, Blood, Nightborne, Void), the dwarves (Earthen, Bronze, Wildhammer, Dark Iron), the humans (Stormwind, Kul Tiras, Gilneas, Lordearon, Dalaran, Alterac, Stormgrade), the Tauren (Pandarian, Northrend, Mulgore) and the orcs (Draenor, Horde, Fel)?
If only trolls were a neutral race then I would have a race I loved on the alliance. I’ve spent a disproportionate amount of time on the horde just bc of my love for Thrall and trolls.
While I am glad to hear of the Sandfury Trolls again it's sad that even here the Dark Trolls that fought during the battle of Mt Hyjal and again during the Cataclysm were forgotten.
It wasn't said clealy yet, but the undeground Haranir definitely seem like an intermediate troll-elf race (four fingers, elven features, tusks and also quills, possibly originally followers of the Great Boar Agamaggan), possibly evolved from the Dark Trolls (before they became fully Kaldorei). That would make them Night Elves' cousins. Also nobody ever mentions the elemental Djinni, their bodily features resemble something between Troll and Elf also (elven bearded faces, three-fingered hands of troll type, looking more like a intermediate form evolving into elf, than being troll ancestors). And obviously the Naga are twisted form of the Highborne elves, so... those are Trolls in origin also (as the demonic Satyr are).
The Wild God's are like the Loa. The elves are arcane trolls, therfore the original term is Loa. According to the Warcraft realm and to what's original.
Night elafs are my favorit race on Alliace and Troll has always been interesting cause they speak patoa 😂 i didn't know they are the family where Night elf and blood elfs come from! Made me enjoy them even more! Vol'jin is the G.O.A.T
no. orcs are decendants of Grond who was made out of stone by Aggramar. The line of colossals, magnaron, gronn, ogron, and ogres are the ancestors or orcs.
"the trolls have been around longer than any playable race in World of Warcraft"
Draenei have a bone to pick with this one
Dranei came after

on azeroth like he said yeah they are
@@nanonymphie night elves are younger than trolls

I adore the trolls. They are pretty much the only reason I have horde characters.
To play various Darkspear trolls and Zandalari trolls.
Elves be like "we wuz trollz"
Troll eat Loa, troll eat troll, troll eat elf also 😁 Yumman!

Rewatching your videos has become a ritual everytime I get back in to the game. Thank you for making them!!!
You did an incredible job breaking this down for those of us who button mash during quest text.
PLEASE do a lore video on all 15+ Orc clans from Draenor and the ones left on Azeroth.
Trolls are the best in WoW.
Zul'jin is the best Troll of all.
I want to play every tribe. Unite all the Troll tribes.
no, give them a separate faction that constantly infights, thats so much cooler
Its still crazy for me to know that night elves used to be trolls
it definitely isnt something i think about a lot, but it's cool that they share that ancient history
Elves are descendants of Trolls.
Trolls and Elves both take on aspects of their chosen source of magic.
@@benjaminlear1619 It's Elune what done it
I mean with their skin colours, their huge ears, fangs and all, I can see the resemblance. But high/blood elves are just too different.
I'm here thinking the same thing
Another great video. Loving the series so far.
thanks for watching em! super glad you've been enjoying the videos

Watching thede videos makes me appreciate playing every race so much more ❤
Trols are the reason arthas could conquer azaroth, trall coulkd reach the oracle and lord archimode could be kiled before reaching the world tree
Your videos are AMAZING!

yeah, im a big fan of the trolls of warcraft. they're probably my favorite faction followed by the tauren.
@@Lawllin Same except I’m Trolls then Tauren for no particular reason, lol.
Most troll factions are neutral.
thank you for these awesome vids! im new to wow and youve helped me catch up a LOT hope you can do some more for BFA and shadowlands ^^
Nice video mon.
WoW should have an option if you choose to play a Troll it should have a another drop menu letting you choose a troll tribe.
Trolls be flipping out mon
While I am glad to hear of the Sandfury Trolls again it's sad that even here the Dark Trolls that fought during the battle of Mt Hyjal and again during the Cataclysm were forgotten.

Wait so _literally all the elves_ are actually trolls?
What the heck?
Yeah, I know it is dumb.
could you do some kind of
lore you need to know before shadowlanda or something like that for people newer to the game like me pog
Could you do the lore about the 7 human kingdoms and arathorian empire?
im gonna try and catch up to shadowlands lore first. but if i need another break from the expansions i'll highly consider arathor and strom and stuff
So that's why they are so chill
I mean when you have 100 achievement you just chill
LETS FUCKING GO NEW VID

16:04 made me never want to run ZF again 😅
Yesss 1k subs
ikr?!
so some trolls became night elves and some night elves became nagas??? That’s crazy
but who created the trolls?
i think they just came about naturally. a lot of lifeforms grew around the well of eternity and trolls just happen to be one of em lol
@@huub245 created by the titan aggramar to fight invasive species?
@@electricmayhem8147 No actually the trolls are not made by titans. From what i can find the origin of the trolls is unknown.
@@electricmayhem8147 forgot that that was how the orcs came about haha sawry!
no. orcs are decendants of Grond who was made out of stone by Aggramar. The line of colossals, magnaron, gronn, ogron, and ogres are the ancestors or orcs.
If anyone is on an eastern US server that has a guild that’s into the lore of the game let me know. I’m a returning player looking for a community.
Tazdingo!!
perfect
Elf lore is Troll lore.
Pog
trolls are cool
TAZDINGO
gg
why are we covering asmongold's fan's lore?
