Legends of WoW - Cloze Nihilum + Ensidia

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ธ.ค. 2024
- Legends of WoW is a series in which Mike interviews someone from the WoW scene, be it content creators, high end players etc. to see what their experience was like in World of Warcraft. This was initially filmed as part of an unreleased video and was recorded during Shadowlands Beta.
Cloze aka Kenny is one of Mike's guildmates but previously was a member of Nihilum during vanilla and Ensidia during Wrath, so he should have some stories to tell!
If you like this content, we have a number of other episodes of this series available right now in the premium section of our website. They will be gradually released to TH-cam but if you can't wait, consider supporting us for full access at preachgaming.com

Big love to Kenny (Cloze) for giving up his time. Absolute WoW Legend
Epic insight! Continue with Cataclysm heroes aka Vodka with Graf or Kinaesthesia :,D
Please do Rig from Blood legion
Preach as an interviewer is one of the most entertaining things to listen to.
Lappe is still playing so it should be relatively easy to get a hold of him.
Sparkuggs, Lappe, Yliajo, Rigg would all be cool to hear from
Rigg! I haven't heard that name in a long time. That would be cool.
Last time I actually committed at all to pve was in BC so hearing these old names is pretty awesome. Thx for this content preach
I am surprised that Preach knew so little about Vanilla raiding. Everyone knew Nihilum, they had the world first Cthun. They were not the underdog but the top guild going into Naxx. I think they were the Dark Horse since most people on the forums wanted Death and Taxes to win Naxx. Also even my guild, which was only clearing a handful of bosses in Naxx by the time Nihilum killed KT, was using flasks on every member for AQ40 and Naxx.
Death and Taxes, I remember trolling their forums for hints on a certain un-killable old-god. Unfortunately, my guild imploded on the twins prior.. its amazing how one warlock able to move 3-4 feet correctly one night, and then never again will destroy a guild.
Buzzkill wrote lots of stuff about Nihilum ans Ensidia back on manaflask. Really interesting stuff. Thanks for the itw.
Wish there was footage of these kills here tbh. It'd be epic if so
Great interview. Love these, I would LOVE to hear your warlock pal Sparkuggz
as a classic player this was a huge treat. great interview!
wow kungen must have been an insane RL. love this series dude, keep it up!
Kungen is overrated. After TBC he never accomplished anything.
@@midnyte_tv They did well in wotlk as Ensidia, don't write while you have you head in your ass, it's bad.
@@midnyte_tv they were still really strog, but it was the time Paragon gained some traction... and the rest is history
@@gollese they did really well cheating on LK fight and getting annned. Dont write while youve got your head in your ass. And dont pretend to know something, when you dont
@@midnyte_tv Yeah, it wasn't like Ensidia was in the world first running for Lich King. Kungen is obviously elevated to legend status and those levels of admiration will of course generate something hyperbolic as well. Is Kungen solely responsible for Nihilum/Ensidia success? No, he isn't. Is he to be counted as one of the best GMs/RLs in the game's history? Yes, he is. His merits from Vanilla Naxx to Lich King absolutely warrants it.
there is nothing better than going back over old gaming stories when you and the boys were there, and nothing else mattered .. for better or for worse, they were always the best times
This was really amazing to listen to! I would LOVE to have more of these, just laid back talking to long time players just talking memories!
Great interview. Such great times following those top guilds fighting for world firsts.
Man i heard the name Buzzkill and nostalgia kicked in. Best warlock ever
Hey Preacher, really appreciate the amount and quality of content you put out even during progress! Hope times aren't too stressful for you though. Must be insane keeping up with Family, TH-cam, Twitch and Progress all at once.
Pls do more like that! I love these oldschool players telling us some storys.
Awesome interview! Thank you so much Mike and Cloze!
I didn't really understand raiding until Wrath, so this was so cool to listen to. I wasn't even aware this had happened! Preach, your interviewer atmosphere is great, keep working on stuff like this!
These videos are fantastic preach. Hoping to see more
I remember seeing Cloze in orgrimmar. Looked so badass with the bloodfang set and chromatic swords.
Love the old WoW stories from top players. Thanks Preach, keep it up.
Hey Mike really enjoyed this, hope you do more. Great to have on while going for a walk 👍🏻
I got World #22 Firefighter and it's absolute my proudest moment. The fight was nuts, but so much fun!
I remember being in the Nihilum alt raid team with my druid OT in BT for a few weeks, and Kungen were a amazing RL. Still being one of my best moments of my wow history.
A paragon interview would be awesome. I miss Devais streams....
USSO TAUNTE USSO TAUNTE
Would also be nice with a tankspot interview. I feel like they popularized proper raidguides.
Please keep doing this series!
Didn't know who this was but recognized the guild name. Loved listening to this at work while having it on my second monitor!
We need more of these
Only listening to this now, has anyone ever read the: the ensidia journey by buzzkill. Quite good
You mentioned talking to someone from Paragon. Seita the Guild Leader (however you spell it) would be awesome because as far as I can tell he never spoke in interviews
I just realized I said this same thing a year ago lol
Preach .. can you please give an introduction and some context to who your talking? No clue who this is.....
Absolutely, truth be told, this interview was never meant to be published. This chat with Kenny was for a completely unrelated topic that turned into the chat. In fact; although Xaryu's was released first, it was recorded last. Kennys was the very first one we made and realized, these are great.
I get your point but it is written in the lower right corner of the screen. Kenny/Cloze was a member of Nihilum which is one of the most famous wow guilds ever which was active from Vanilla to Wrath. Death and Taxes, Nihilum, SK Gaming and others are the Methods of old.
Nihilum was so big that an open letter from them made blizzard change the way consumables worked. They are a big deal.
But i completely agree this video is made for people who know their wow history and not very friendly to people who don't.
@@Trashloot it's a really bad font/text color, I didn't know anything was there until now lmao
@@Trashloot some people need much more information than that
I remember Cloze from Vanilla days.. Troll Rogue I think? Great interview!
I am really enjoying these stories.
Preacher, have followed you for a long time but never commented until now. Great job always. I would love to see/hear a conversation with Setja (?) the main tank for Paragon. I think that would be interesting because I have never found very much about him.
Thank you for this interview! very interesting.
I remember Shazzrah in Molten core. we pulled it into Garr's Room and had grp of 5 8 diff spot to avoid the aoe damage
Awesome interview. Shame our memories suck and it’s hard to perfectly everything. I would love to hear you interview some people from FatSharkYes.
Love all these interviews preach!
Really liked this mike, great conversation!
Great content, but we really need pictures och videos in the background if poss
Could have listened to a 10 hour chat between Mike and Kenny. Interesting to see what it was like behind the scenes before everything was streamed or on wowprogress. Back then the only info we got was shit talking and rumours on iirc
what's up Kenny, where's the realm first 85 story?
Any Death & Taxes interviews?
Won lie! always hoped someone would "dig up" old raiders of the past and ask them about how/what/when things had gone down during their tenures.
You're a fantastic interviewer. Please do more. Please
Would’ve been cool for your editor to add clips of the old bosses you were referring to.
A great listen nonetheless!
Preach, ure an insane interviewer, u always ask the right questions.
Cloze was why I pushed to be a better player. He was amazing
the Kel'thuzad world first video is the most epic of all time
Nightmares Asylum was the prominent guild i remember from classic
I got realm first kj and illidan, and still flex on my irl mates with hand of adal title since they were casual back then. Its my only claim to fame Ingame 😂
Please do an Interview with Kripparrian
Kind of a hot start. I know what you are talking about but newer players who are not well versed in their wow raiding history must be very confused.
"If I could play everybody's character we would have killed this by now". Or "if only I could clone myself 24 or 19 times this boss would be so easy". I guess when one is younger one doesn't realize that such a statement implies one believes he is the best player in the guild. Or did understand the implication, but actually believed it. Good times.
Good conversation!
Woah Kenny had a voice all along!? The TDPs lied to me!
Every melee would've been using bombs on cooldown on H LK, engi was far ahead of everything cause of rocket boots
Nihlum?
EDIT: The title had the guild name wrong :)
@Fiif But it's Nihilum not Nihlum
The OGs
I forgot about kungen until today
oh i remeber empire and lagarde or w/e called
super cool
love this
Tell him to get Muqq to come back
Hello Kenneth
Let the guy speak 😂
Anyone used to raid in Celebrity-Balnazzar (previously the classic guild Harlequins) - get in touch. Voltan Ele Shaman here (still never got lightning capacitor from Karazhan!) interested if anyone is still playing
Get Yliajo on please :)
I'm team Danish also. So delicious
If I remember correctly...and I should since my source of income back in classic was herb farming...the biggest hurdle for flasking was the fact that the Black Lotus was rare as FUCK back then. On pvp servers battles would break out over a lotus if a non herbalist found one and had to defend the node until a guildie showed up. Hell I remember being paid off by a guild I did business with to gather a Lotus in Sithilus because their Herbalist was up in Felwood and they'd already had to kill several horde that came sniffing around.
Please do one with kungen also!
He is in a bad mental place right now so it’s going to be complicated
LETS GOO
Big Pog
Top 1000 retail guilds could do what these guys were doing back then cuz old content is easy. Just look at classic how ez game is
I need a new game. SLs is really shit, not better than BFA at all
Some people are never happy, ay? Shadowlands is fun as fuck
