Amoon its true tho, to be a demon hunter, you must have lost everything except your own life obviously, wich is why they became demon hunters, to kill all demon and get revenge. And they have nothing to lose
+Nobbel87 So, if we need the powers of the demon hunters and we will use them why does Gul'dan revive Illidan? Isn't' it pretty obvious by now that he doesn't serve the legion? I don't see any reason why they would want him back, mainly since he has spent his time trying to kill them and kicked them out of Outlands, stole the skull of Gul'dan too. Can you explain this?
+rummy reach for the gnomes I think they explained somewhere that the wings are only cosmetic, like they're just there to look like a demon for metamorphosis and look cool when you jump.
+evildevinity Swifty was one of the best warriors in vanilla and bc always looking for ways to improve or learn from his class new ways to use your character,he was the ultimate warrior and he deserve It seeing how big of a pvp personality he is :),i can see nobble as a lore master it would be so cool :D
This is a first time watching one of your videos and I loved it. I do feel sorry for Illidan and I look forward to seeing how the story progresses in Legion. I loved seeing you in Moocluck and Nixxiom's leveling series and I hope you make a return there soon. I look forward to watching more of your videos and I am gaining more an interest in the Lore of Azeroth.
Better love story than twilight, and if you think about it the love triangle between illidan tyrande and malfurion are kinda similar. Maiev is just the side chick xD
Maiev: WHY DEMON? ARENT YOU SUPPOSED TO LOVE THE PRIESTESS OF THE MOON? Illidan: All my life i chased Tyrande and she only have eyes for my brother. You are the only one who have been there ...always chasing me...always after me...such passion...IAM NOT BLIND HUNTRESS! Maiev: .... Illidan: i guess i will be forever your "prisoner"
+sushanalone in the expansions after Legion we are going to find out. Maiev is going to keep her pregnancy secret for the protection of Illidan and his baby.
I REALLY HOPE BLIZZ'S LORE TEAM WATCHES YOUR VIDEOS, YOU HAVE AMAZING VISION! I LOVE YOUR THEORIES, THEY MAKE BETTER LORE THAN SOME OF WOWS! KEEP IT UP BROTHER!
After playing through the Demon Hunter story line, Illidan was not as "Mad" as he seemed by sending his Demon Hunters away during the events of the Burning Crusade. From what Illidan was instructing and referencing, he seemed to know that his reign was about to come to an end with the efforts of the "Heroes" that were invading the Black Temple, and he knew that the Legion would return in his absence. So, he sent his Demon Hunters to Mardum, along with a sect of the Ashtongue, Coilskar, and Shivarra to protect and preserve his forces. Those that survived would be stronger for it when they returned to Azeroth, and would best benefit the world with their power and abilities against the Burning Legion when they did return to take Azeroth. So, in reality, Illidan knew exactly what he was doing. ;)
I have to say...I absolutely LOVE your theory. It makes lots of sense and well....It sounds pretty bad ass. I love all of your videos! Just watching some help me develop my RP characters more and more! I'm kinda scared to RP a demon hunter with how little I know about them, as well as the Blood elf and Night Elf lore. But you're helping me get more knowledge! Thank you!
You're theory sounds great. At the Blizzcon Q&A someome asked about Alleria and Turalyon and they replied said when they return in Legion it will "Change the way you look at the WoW" That answer makes so much sense if Alleria and Turalyon are there to help explain Illidan's story.
In the end, when you said "This is just a theory" ... I was SURE you were going to say "AAAA GAME THEORY!! thanks for watching!" you know... like the game theorists channel... hahahah It would have been a great reference! Btw... Keep it up Nobbel, I love your vids! And you theory is very, VERY good! =D
Loved your theory at the end bro! Love your vids in general. Anyone who becomes disillusioned with WoW should deffo watch some of your vids. Your enthusiasm does rub off on other people! Hope you know that.
I appreciate your subjectivity. providing all sources of info, even with the caveat of if they are cannon, gives the view options. Thank you, and keep up the good work.
I like how you put two relative videos for referance at the ending so that people can keep watching more videos to easily educate themselves as they see fit :3
+FancyTophatDude Nobbel already called the "seeking the shards of frostmourne" and on the legion page Sylvanas is being mentioned as a major figure, alleria has been mentioned by dev interviews. I think they're stealing his ideas again. Not like it'd be the first time. He writes better lore than they do some times.
great vid Nobbel, i remember Loramus from vanilla being the only demon hunter in the game then. He was on an island in bay of storms (Azshara zone) with his glavies. He had three elite felhounds guarding him: Raytaf, Shahiar, and Zaman.
0:15 Dodging every attack of about 20 Demon Hunters, and then 1 shotting them, while praising their abilities as a weapon against the legion and showing how powerful they are, Epic way of starting a Demon Hunter lore video.
I had a blood elf warrior (fury 1h) originally (changed into a tauren just recently, name too) so I like to think that my blood elf has a backstory of going off on an adventure somewhere and now coming back as even more of a badass xD
Nobbel, your theory is actually probably better then what Blizzard will come up with. One can only hope that way is the way it goes, but if it is true, I can't imagine how amazing that would be.
I wonder if the Demon Hunter class will interact differently when going to The Black Temple raid in Outlands once Legion hits. I hope we'll get some extra lore options, maybe being able to talk to the bosses or get special quests!
I so hope that theory of yours is true. I mean, what better way for Illidan to end up in the naaru's good graces? Find old friends and allies of Khadgar - another powerful ally of the naaru - and bring them back safely. And Kael'thas didn't exactly have Illidan's best interests at heart: _"Did you honestly believe I would trust the future to some blind, half-night elf mongrel? ---- _*_he was merely an instrument, a stepping stone to a much larger plan!"_* If anything, the theory sounds plausible. But it's never that easy though, is it?
THAT THEORY I LOVE IIIIIIT I also really want Kil'Jaeden to be major boss in Legion and you fight against him along with Illidan because that story really needs to be resolved.
So I watched your video all the way through, Nobbel - awesomely put together btw, man - and I loved your idea about trying to make Illidan a not-so-bad guy and trying to help Turalyon and Alleria and all that. But to be honest, I just don't see this making it ingame, as I'm not sure Blizzard is smart enough to find a way to get this shifting realities thing into the storyline. Also, we have no proof Illidan would even want to help Arator, whether or not he and his allies were opposed to the Burning Legion. Finally, as that little teaser trailer shows, it was the Legion's agent Gul'dan who woke him up, so we don't know which side Illidan is really on or if he is still working for himself. I'll tell you what I would like to see in the final raid, though - big fight scene where he steals some of Sargeras' power and grows super-huge, and the two demons are fighting each other kaiju-style while the players are running around looking like ants. That'd be awesome!
17:20 Why are the twin blades of Azzinoth so legendary? It's pointed out in one of the books that the twin blades are very powerful artifact, in the battle between arthas and illidan, illidan could parry all of arthas' attacks and "the frostmourne was not able to leave even a scratch upon the twinblades' surface"
been warcraft fan for ages. and i loved evey part of lore beside pandaria. i cant get over pandaria fuck me. but illidari, demon hunters, illidan himself. I cant imagine anything better than that. Even now when 7.3 patch is out. Illidan is so god damn good character. He is like perfect example that those who take darker path are not always evil.. love the story man. You could maybe make updated video about demon hunters i think there is more information now probably. Anyway good as usual, love your videos. cheers mate
I really hope the stuff you mentioned comes true and not some half arsed changes to the lore. Making minor changes or insight into the Burning Crusade really would fix a lot of those issues. Hell the whole thing about Kael ordering an attack on Adal could be a quest line for the demon hunter order hall.
oh...my...god.. your speculations are too good and too juicy and too awesome to be true!!! although the details might differ a bit, this speculation seem pretty convincing! :D and make Illidan a way more awesome sympathize-able character..but hey.. its just a theory.. A GAME THEORY!!
It's interesting to see that some of them can't control their demonic essence potentially because they are weak and don't know the name of the demon beforehand. Ered'ruin & Annihilan are the demon of choice given the potential their essence yield and how "easily" they can be controlled but a Nathrezim essence would also be a very good choice given their peculiar set of powers. As for the bounding they should sacrifice a demon whose name is only known by the apprentice but it seems they prefer to keep it unknown to provide another challenge but the outcome isn't reflective of the apprentice's potential at all. From a Warlock point of view the process of becoming a Demon Hunter is still archaic and could improve further with the help of a relatively good demonologist and see the succes rate rise a lot and perfect the Spectral Sight ritual.
That's why I love the Demon Hunters, making a DH OC for RP or just thinking about a backstory for your character is so much fun. Also it's a nice open platform for Blizz to expand on even if DHs aren't in the limelight anymore
+Nobbel87 I read Nobbel's comments with his own voice and accent. so in my mind revamp = RRrrrevamp and if "I" try to emulate him out loud it = Threevamp
FYI: Not sure if anybody else remembers but Sindweller is actually one of the demon hunter names from WC3. For those unfamiliar with WC3 then, when playing as the Night Elves in a 1v1/2v2 etc. (Similar to Starcraft) and you summoned a Demon Hunter from the Altar of Elders then there was a chance that the name Sindweller would be selected from a variety of names programmed into the game which could be viewed in the game editor. Whether its a throwback to WC3 or it is a lead into explaining those that followed Illidan's example who knows.
Nobbel, have you ever watched any videos from the channel The Game Theorists? This guy tells all kinds of theories about video games that are a little out there, but still very much grounded in legit evidence. I'd love to see you team up and do a WarCraft edition of Game Theory!
I never had the opportunity to fully understand Illidan's story or the demon hunters as well, until recently. When I used to play wow it was either private servers or just the trial and I never played warcraft. Now I have a subscription, got my character leveled relatively high and have gone through some of the story of illidan and played warcraft. I gotta say, I though arthas was my favorite character after I learned his story, but I think my favorite character is illidan now. Especially after the cutscenes in legion. I am still working on my 1st demon hunter. And wow, it is just so fun. The combat feels so good it is so refreshing. Much more fun than my druid. And navigating the world is a breeze. Plus I never found myself struggling with bugs and boredom doing the burning crusade/legion quests. Whereas I have been in icecrown for like 2 months bored out of my mind and getting pissed at the lack of care given to the old story line. I suppose the lich king is only good in cut scenes or warcraft 3 these days.
Nobbel I have watched lots of your videos and this is by far my favorite. I love your thoughts at the end of the video and that makes a lot of sense. If anything your thoughts on the Illidari going on a mission to save Turalyon and Alluria. I love it!!!! Thank you so much your videos.

"I've sacrificed everything" - Every Demon Hunter 2016
Amoon its true tho, to be a demon hunter, you must have lost everything except your own life obviously, wich is why they became demon hunters, to kill all demon and get revenge. And they have nothing to lose
There's a sacrifice before, to be cool with what you are and from than go beyond
“I’ve sacrificed everything, what have you done?”
Even to other demon hunters lol
When skulls and death lords and necromancy wasn’t edgy enough
0:04 Accurate representation of day 1 of Legion
+PurpleDerpy Im just wondering how insanely big that prison must have been:p
+PurpleDerpy I plan on leveling at least one character to 110 before i make the demonhunter. i want to avoid the initial ridiculousness.
Michael Martin Hahaha it's inevitable man. Demon Hunters are starting at level 98.
+Michael Martin It's going to be a huge lag-fest.
+PurpleDerpy lol so day one demon hunters can go to the dark temple and fist Illidan to death for the glaves sounds fair
Illidan looks at Queen Azshara.
Illidan: It's over 9000!!!
lmao
+Marcelo RS11 Malfurion: What!? 9000?!
and then Illidans eyes actually spell 8000
glad I'm not the only one who thought of that
It's over 9000 what? Years, mm's?
Love how so many got The Game Theorists reference. Stay awesome comment section, love ya!
+Nobbel87 i was just thinking you should contact audible and record your voice over the books probs make good bank jus sayin
What is that quest where illidan it's fighting tichondrius I've never seen that one in game :O
+Nobbel87 So, if we need the powers of the demon hunters and we will use them why does Gul'dan revive Illidan? Isn't' it pretty obvious by now that he doesn't serve the legion? I don't see any reason why they would want him back, mainly since he has spent his time trying to kill them and kicked them out of Outlands, stole the skull of Gul'dan too. Can you explain this?
+Nobbel87 do u think the wings will become funtional?
+rummy reach for the gnomes I think they explained somewhere that the wings are only cosmetic, like they're just there to look like a demon for metamorphosis and look cool when you jump.
you should get an npc in WoW like the Loremaster ;)
+TPM BeatboxD they gave one to swifty and a few other pvpers in ashran so this could totally happen
+Traccerr
Swifty got an npc? They sure lowered the bar.
+evildevinity considering how huge of a personality he is it's surprising it took this long
+TPM BeatboxD Nobbel should be a NPC like Lorewalker Cho :)
+evildevinity Swifty was one of the best warriors in vanilla and bc always looking for ways to improve or learn from his class new ways to use your character,he was the ultimate warrior and he deserve It seeing how big of a pvp personality he is :),i can see nobble as a lore master it would be so cool :D
I was about to fall asleep.
But Nobbel uploaded a video...
This is a first time watching one of your videos and I loved it. I do feel sorry for Illidan and I look forward to seeing how the story progresses in Legion. I loved seeing you in Moocluck and Nixxiom's leveling series and I hope you make a return there soon. I look forward to watching more of your videos and I am gaining more an interest in the Lore of Azeroth.
But hey, that's just a theory. A GAME THEORY, thanks for watching!
+Alexander Aramaki came to comments for that.
+Alexander Aramaki Was looking for this when he said that XD
Hey! I was going to say that!
+Alexander Aramaki damn, I'm 10 hours late :(
I don't understand the reference.
Maiev: so you were a good guy?
Illidan: I know..
Maiev: if you dare to think you are going to be forgi...
Illidan kisses Maiev
The end.
Better love story than twilight, and if you think about it the love triangle between illidan tyrande and malfurion are kinda similar. Maiev is just the side chick xD
I would pay to see that
Maiev: WHY DEMON? ARENT YOU SUPPOSED TO LOVE THE PRIESTESS OF THE MOON?
Illidan: All my life i chased Tyrande and she only have eyes for my brother. You are the only one who have been there ...always chasing me...always after me...such passion...IAM NOT BLIND HUNTRESS!
Maiev: ....
Illidan: i guess i will be forever your "prisoner"
+Akiorah Where are the Demon Warden babies? or did the fel fire burn out illidan's crown-jewels?
+sushanalone in the expansions after Legion we are going to find out. Maiev is going to keep her pregnancy secret for the protection of Illidan and his baby.
Ok, got to say your theory makes a LOT of sense and I actually quite like it. Closes some plot holes along the way too. Kudos!
soo nobbel has a theory
a game theory
+RandomGamerCory I thought of the same exact thing lol
+RandomGamerCory Thanks for watching.
That theory/suggested lore is such a cool idea. I hope whatever they come up with is that cool. Love your work, keep it up Nobbel!
that theory at the end was amazing and just omg wow. would love it if it actually turned out that way!
I REALLY HOPE BLIZZ'S LORE TEAM WATCHES YOUR VIDEOS, YOU HAVE AMAZING VISION! I LOVE YOUR THEORIES, THEY MAKE BETTER LORE THAN SOME OF WOWS! KEEP IT UP BROTHER!

So, in reality, Illidan knew exactly what he was doing. ;)
Hey Dutch man. I just have to say that I have became a total lore junkie now that I started watching your videos. Keep up the good work. :)
I have to say...I absolutely LOVE your theory. It makes lots of sense and well....It sounds pretty bad ass. I love all of your videos! Just watching some help me develop my RP characters more and more! I'm kinda scared to RP a demon hunter with how little I know about them, as well as the Blood elf and Night Elf lore.

one of the best videos so far, barely heard anything about the demonhunters in tbc
You're theory sounds great. At the Blizzcon Q&A someome asked about Alleria and Turalyon and they replied said when they return in Legion it will "Change the way you look at the WoW"
That answer makes so much sense if Alleria and Turalyon are there to help explain Illidan's story.

I appreciate your subjectivity. providing all sources of info, even with the caveat of if they are cannon, gives the view options.
Thank you, and keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for making this video. I have been waiting since Doron's video to hear more specific info about Demon Hunters.
I literally check like every hour or so for one of these videos. Thank you! :D
They're uploaded every Sunday :P
:O
I like how you put two relative videos for referance at the ending so that people can keep watching more videos to easily educate themselves as they see fit :3
Your theory is spot-on tbh. Now, even more hyped about Legion!
that theory is too good for blizz to actually do it
+FancyTophatDude exactly my thoughts. i hope they dont mess up the lore :(
+FancyTophatDude Yea... unfortunately.
+FancyTophatDude Blizzard will think it's too Complicated for their "casual" audience. They won't go with that.
+Matheus Costa Too bad they already messed it up...
+FancyTophatDude Nobbel already called the "seeking the shards of frostmourne" and on the legion page Sylvanas is being mentioned as a major figure, alleria has been mentioned by dev interviews. I think they're stealing his ideas again. Not like it'd be the first time. He writes better lore than they do some times.
Congrats on making this week's Community Spotlight on the World of Warcraft community site's front page, Nobbel! :) **fireworks & cake**
I bet if you dont say 'hello everyone' in a vid, people will go crazy
I love your theory at the end. Wouldn't that be so cool? And a nice redemption story as well.
great vid Nobbel, i remember Loramus from vanilla being the only demon hunter in the game then.
He was on an island in bay of storms (Azshara zone) with his glavies. He had three elite felhounds guarding him: Raytaf, Shahiar, and Zaman.
I did not remember his name but I to remember getting a quest to see him in Azshara and completing several quest in the area as well.
These lore videos get me through my work day.
Great video! Credited you in my DH guide on the WoW Forums. ;)
SEVERUS STOOOORMRAAAAAGEEE!!!
+Tomislav Jovicin "After all this time? Always..."
+Nobbel87 but it has to go like this "Tyrande? After all this time?"
Sasuke
Nobbel. As always, another great upload. Thanks a bunch mate!
Love the ending. So fitting, keep up the great work man.
i like that theory you got, makes me excited to see what the actual story is now
Jonathan Bzovsky Haha, how did you like it? Illidan turning into the chosen ine, saying fuck that, then being Sargeras’ jailer
Loved your theory and information. I find this rather useful. *takes notes* Great video!
+Lord Kil'jaeden when the next expansion releases your notes wont help you vs 7 million demon hunters
Bob Smith They can't beat this penis either.
My lord we plan to make our rain on Azeroth on September 21st, 2016 it may come quicker out later we must see what lord Sargeras wants.
+Lord Kil'jaeden I thought you gonna kill Illidan
Awwwww yiss it's Sunday night so that means tea toast and lore *sips tea*
whoa! your theory makes hell a lot of sense, man! hope some Lore guy of Blizz sees this.
0:15 Dodging every attack of about 20 Demon Hunters, and then 1 shotting them, while praising their abilities as a weapon against the legion and showing how powerful they are, Epic way of starting a Demon Hunter lore video.
That’s how Illidan gets rid of the wannabes lol
Keep up the GREAT! work... these must take you a bit to create! ;D
21:33
A GAME THEORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching.
awesome video Shan'do Nobbel. also your theory at the end was....interresting
Great work with this video Nobbel :D one of my personal favorites :)
I was so expecting at the end "But hey, thats just a theory... A GAME THEORY!"
Oh my god, that theory is pretty amazing! It goes pretty well with a lot of things we have in the game already.
I had a blood elf warrior (fury 1h) originally (changed into a tauren just recently, name too) so I like to think that my blood elf has a backstory of going off on an adventure somewhere and now coming back as even more of a badass xD
The speculation at the end is awesome! I can only hope they came up with a story that interesting and connected
Keep up the good work, Nobbel ! Also more content about the upcoming expansion will be great.
Great video! Love the theory! I bet blizz facepalmed when they saw this and wished they came up with it
Nobbel, your theory is actually probably better then what Blizzard will come up with. One can only hope that way is the way it goes, but if it is true, I can't imagine how amazing that would be.
I had no idea about the taking of the demon soul. Always happy to learn new things on Nobbels channel.
I'm watching this in June 2016 and by now I can say:
NOBBEL YOU NAILED IT AGAIN! :P
Hey Nobbel, Polygon gave you a shoutout in their most recent post about world of warcraft and Demon Hunters. Pretty cool!
Dude you're awesome! Keep up the good work!
Excellent video, I've been on break from wow, and you're making me want to play again. Anator Anatur!
The fel reaver sound and the legion thing gives me the shivers every time
The funny worgen grabbing the quest item and just slowly backing out made me laugh
That's just a theory, a nobbel theory!! Thanks for watching! :D 21:33
I wonder if the Demon Hunter class will interact differently when going to The Black Temple raid in Outlands once Legion hits. I hope we'll get some extra lore options, maybe being able to talk to the bosses or get special quests!
Man, that theory in the last part is sooo good... Sadly, too good to be true. :D
Very interesting, many thanks for spending time making this
I so hope that theory of yours is true. I mean, what better way for Illidan to end up in the naaru's good graces? Find old friends and allies of Khadgar - another powerful ally of the naaru - and bring them back safely. And Kael'thas didn't exactly have Illidan's best interests at heart:
_"Did you honestly believe I would trust the future to some blind, half-night elf mongrel? ---- _*_he was merely an instrument, a stepping stone to a much larger plan!"_*
If anything, the theory sounds plausible. But it's never that easy though, is it?
THAT THEORY I LOVE IIIIIIT I also really want Kil'Jaeden to be major boss in Legion and you fight against him along with Illidan because that story really needs to be resolved.
the illidan stromrage novel and how it talked how demon hunter was made was what really got me hyped for demon hutners
So I watched your video all the way through, Nobbel - awesomely put together btw, man - and I loved your idea about trying to make Illidan a not-so-bad guy and trying to help Turalyon and Alleria and all that. But to be honest, I just don't see this making it ingame, as I'm not sure Blizzard is smart enough to find a way to get this shifting realities thing into the storyline.

That'd be awesome!

Just now I understand that was on purpose lol
Nobbel..all I ask for, I wish for you to have a video on the val'kyr that is all i love your lore videos
interesting insight nobbel. can't wait to see how everything unfolds :D
I love these videos. Such great quality and storytelling.
Great and informative video as always!
Thank you for all the work that you do.... Keep it up
Wow Nobbel! You should be the writer for the next warcraft book :D
been warcraft fan for ages. and i loved evey part of lore beside pandaria. i cant get over pandaria fuck me. but illidari, demon hunters, illidan himself. I cant imagine anything better than that.

Could have sworn there was a demon hunter in classic Azshara zone on a little island that did some quest.
+Angie Haumont Yep, that was Loramus Thalipedes, but they moved him to the blasted lands with the revamp. 10:55
+Nobbel87 was that his name? That was so long ago I could not remember anymore.
+Nobbel87 I read Nobbel's comments with his own voice and accent.
so
in my mind revamp = RRrrrevamp
and if "I" try to emulate him out loud it = Threevamp
+Angie Haumont If I am not mistaken one was also in Silithus on entrance to main town I have no idea is he still there
Isn't there one through that waterfall portal in darkshore?
21:36 A GAME THEORY!!! Thanks for watching!
21:33
"But hey, like i said, that's just a theory.

+Darkmortal100 or just a game theory?
+Darkmortal100 YES THIS I WAS HOPING THERE WAS A 'WOW THEORY' VERSION OF THIS
+Darkmortal100 wow such theory much reference
FYI: Not sure if anybody else remembers but Sindweller is actually one of the demon hunter names from WC3. For those unfamiliar with WC3 then, when playing as the Night Elves in a 1v1/2v2 etc. (Similar to Starcraft) and you summoned a Demon Hunter from the Altar of Elders then there was a chance that the name Sindweller would be selected from a variety of names programmed into the game which could be viewed in the game editor. Whether its a throwback to WC3 or it is a lead into explaining those that followed Illidan's example who knows.
Nobbel, have you ever watched any videos from the channel The Game Theorists? This guy tells all kinds of theories about video games that are a little out there, but still very much grounded in legit evidence. I'd love to see you team up and do a WarCraft edition of Game Theory!
I must say, those speculations seem very well thought out, can't wait to see if it's any accurate or not
at 4:45, i think Illidans warglaves have a panda face on the hang guards..... weird lol
In WC3 they did have panda faces on them, haha.
I never had the opportunity to fully understand Illidan's story or the demon hunters as well, until recently. When I used to play wow it was either private servers or just the trial and I never played warcraft. Now I have a subscription, got my character leveled relatively high and have gone through some of the story of illidan and played warcraft. I gotta say, I though arthas was my favorite character after I learned his story, but I think my favorite character is illidan now. Especially after the cutscenes in legion. I am still working on my 1st demon hunter. And wow, it is just so fun. The combat feels so good it is so refreshing. Much more fun than my druid. And navigating the world is a breeze. Plus I never found myself struggling with bugs and boredom doing the burning crusade/legion quests. Whereas I have been in icecrown for like 2 months bored out of my mind and getting pissed at the lack of care given to the old story line. I suppose the lich king is only good in cut scenes or warcraft 3 these days.
Nobbel I have watched lots of your videos and this is by far my favorite. I love your thoughts at the end of the video and that makes a lot of sense. If anything your thoughts on the Illidari going on a mission to save Turalyon and Alluria. I love it!!!! Thank you so much your videos.
tyvm for the video! your theory is well thought out. blizz should take notes from you and dorson!

THE PROPHET HAS SPOKEN!!!

Can I say that illidan is so handsome
Illidan is the ultimate pathetic beta male.

EDIT: in my opinion
Loved your theory, it makes perfect sense to me. :)
BTW, have you thought of reading chapters of the novels and making videos of them?
Grats on the Spotlight!
where does the picture with T and A come from in 20:23? Is it fan made or have i missed something?
