entschuldigen Sie mein schlechtes Deutsch
Entschuldigung angenommen.
Kein Problem mein Freund
Dont worry platinum you sounds like just like the awarage bavarian here.
So schlecht war es nicht. Ein paar Hick-Ups hier und da, aber relativ solide.
perfect german ma dude
trust me
im bavarian
Dude, the Fiverr bit is PURE GOLD!
dont you mean...
Platinum *puts on sunbglasses*
Wow my 2 fav youtubers here, fml
The guy that voiced Uther needs a raise from $5 to $10
Wish Uther was like that in the lore
Uther is a badass regardless
I love the "watch your tone with me, BOY!
Mandela effect.
I'll remember it as such, since I wont be playing warcraft 3 again.
@@captaindeadeye788 Shadowlands: NOT ANYMORE!
That recreation was 20/10 i laughed so hard I couldn’t laugh.
Plat...how much did you pay them. You mad lad.
the puppet guy should have given a refund
Well its fiverr soooo....
@@seancampbell6292people can ask for more then 5$

oh my, OH MY
The Fiverr part was such a fun part to watch already, but this just killed me
The “yeet“ gets me every time
Don't toss the baby. 😂
Respect for the Rat Movie reference, you're one of the good ones
Postmaster Malone is a play on Karl Malone whose nickname is the "mailman" and is a former nba player for the Utah Jazz and LA Lakers
I never thought I'd see perfection until I saw the seriously compelling retelling of how Arthas told the rest of Strathholme.
Is that Jerma?! 9:12 I did not expect him to randomly show up in the video hahaha.
Jerma? THAT Jerma who beat Dark Souls on stream?
@@TheFranssiBrother the same one who died to pinwheel?
In the Scarlet Crusade's defense, there's always obvious doors and passageways we can't open. Their foot hold in the living quarter seems more likely that they entered through the port we never see. It would make more sense also because it would allow them to send troops and supplies from Scarlet Sanctuary. We know they have ships, because we found them in Northrend.
Glad you could bake it, Uther.
Watch your tone with me, boy. You may be the waiter, but I’m still your superior as a chef.
I had to pause after the German part. I have to say, this is definitely one of the more entertaining videos I've seen in a while.
Even more funny if you are na native german speaker. He did not that bad in my opinion btw
That recreation was gold. 10/10 production value. Been subbed for awhile and each video continues to surprise me in a new way. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Hey Plat, just want to let you know that I let every Ad run its entirety, and click on them to give you as much revenue as possible. :D You rock dude!
The Jerma Cameo was perfect
Arthas purged Stratholme... and in WotLK we helped him. Personally, I must've helped Arthas purge Strat about 100 times, back in the day.
Yes. Free mount if you do it fast enough.
We didn't REALLY help him. We preserved the timeline from being altered by the Infinite Dragonflight
I purged the city as Arthas in Warcraft III like thousand times, I really fucking like the game. The story is so well made and it has lots of replay value to me (the original, that Reforged shit was a fucking ripoff and I'm not even buying it).
I am relieved this secret passage still works!
@@DrPluton WoW revs up that old school fantasy murderhobo mentality to 12.
The worst part for Arthas I think is that his favored weapon was a hammer. A big ole hammer. The kind of hammer that doesnt kill children and babies cleanly. The kind of hammer that kills children and babies in ways that make you want to tear out your own heart years later thinking about it.
Who say that to you? I hammer can kill children and babies clearly if you put enough force on it. ;D ALWAYS DO YOUR PURGE DUTY RIGHT (Or you will be next)
Well... I guesse striking swiftly with a hammer in the head may be a better option. Since hammer would stun and kill one instantly, when the sword would leave them bleeding out.
yea this comment is an example of making things worse thinking your making things better, nd its crazy how often it happens with serious issues in life @@alanedgarfillinpillin8880
@@alanedgarfillinpillin8880 but what is left behind is not pretty to look at.
My favorite classic dungeon. I love the lore behind Stratholme. Such a terrible tragedy 😢
I do love the lore of it, too. It was the point Arthas’ fall was cemented. You can understand his reasoning, even sympathetize with it.
Dude what is Jerma doing In stratholme. Love the singing by him.
I vote for Voiceover Pete as Jaina in the WoW movie.
Fun fact, the capital city of lordaeron is named “capital city”
Blizzard is a multi-dollar company.
Where is the rat that makes ALL OF DA RULES
I Have laughed so hard on the Arthas Uther and Jaina part :D. Good work as always Platinum wow . Keep it up the good work.
This is the best retelling of anything ever.
4:15 that show, im so touched, it was amazing, absolutely breathtaking.
The emotions, the dramatic scenery, absolutely a masterpiece.
I don't know how you managed to put this togehter, but 11/10 is what i give it.
Also didn't we go back in time with the bronze dragonflight to make sure that the infinite dragonflight doesn't mess up the timeline with the Cullong of Strathlome... would've been funny to see like a pandaren with a human mask helping Arthas with it.
I used to grind Strath with my Paladin a lot, not boosting, just having fun and d/e ing stuff. I had no idea what had occurred there and feel much better, having done my part to cleanse that city.
Content
The quality of these videos just keep getting better and better!
Even my brother likes hearing the lore when hes bored. He doesn't even play wow lol these videos rock
"Poppin pills" probly means he's on antibiotics.
The fact that you're using some of Jerma's green-screen footage and audio is making this video 10x better.
That representation of culling of Strathome was much better than the one in Reforged.
The quality is outstanding
Great as always
Keeping up with the great quality I see. In those days where everyone and their mom makes videos your content is a breath of fresh air.
The Rats from windows movie maker AHAHAHAHAHA. Nice one. I doubt many people remember that one!
You are so cute! 😍
Loved all the skits and bits you put into this one.
The Arthas puppet had me laughing in tears !!! Great work !!!
This was amazing please make more
What a lovly and pleasend episode, just in time for christmas ❤️
lovely and pleasant* Yeah pretty good video, hes very creative.
JA! Vielen Dank! Das war sehr schön! Dankeschön!
-great Video mate :p
And ur german is at least understandable Most of the Time 👌😁
Maaan... I didn't know that for the unforgiven. That got me off guard emotionally...
Quality content at its best! Keep up the good work!
Best wow content creator.
Non-gameplay category, yes. Best gameplay: Uberdanger or Barny64.
The warcraft 1 experience was priceless. The bases were so large and the battles were amazingly executed. Graphics not so good but since when has that stopped us from enjoying ourselves?
That was an amazing retelling, I can't tell if it's better then the Culling of Arthas but it's a super strong contender
I can recommend you a third contestant for the best recreation of the Culling: glad I could make it, Arthas. Enjoy, if you haven't already.
@@kerkezpavle Thank you so much for telling me of this, that was a pure amazing mindfuck on Uther to Arthas, I think that one is definitely the number 1, thank you my man thank you
That Fiverr Uther could just, do this professionally. Cast him as a bandit faction leader in something or... something.
That retelling of the culing of Stratholme deserves an oscar
Your lore videos are the only ones on youtube that arent boring AF.
Nixxiom’s are good, too
That is the most chilling rendition of the Culling of Stratholme I have ever seen
Referring to the question if every single civilian was infected and if Arthas killed everyone, the answer is not really, since later on in WC3 you can see Uther and Jaina returning to Stratholme and there's civilians everywhere gathering the corpses and burning them.
"How can I even consider that? There's got to be some other way!"
JT DAMN IT AS MY FUTURE KING ORDER ME TO PURGE THIS CITY
This is all oversimplified (I love the puppet show and all), but there was little details if you haven't been paying attention or you haven't played Warcraft 3 (I have played the original Warcraft 3 years ago). Both Arthas and Jania (after killing Kel'Thuzad) arrive in Hearthglen, heard of an Undead Strike Force about attack said town, Jania teleports to Uther to warn him about the situation, and Arthas finds out (and he and his men are the only witnesses) the plaque turns people into the Undead. After Uther comes in to save the day, then they go to Stratholm. So, a lot of details left out; but you have to make this video shareable and simplified so people can get a general idea of how it happened without explaining too much (lore explanation can take hours if not simplified).
can't get enough of your work thank you so much
You deserve a million subscribers
Uther is just as bad ass as I imagined him from the books. Excellent job
Man you really are a underrated youtuber, edits always on point.
That retelling brought a tear to my eye. Well done Fiverr
Thats insane! What a dark and sad history of Stratholm bit i love the duneon .... I've never been in a war, never mind a culling but this is close enough.
I mean revert this to actual life and imagine being in Stratholm watching all the death around you. you need therapy for years 💀🔥
That bit with the rats had me fuckin dying, I wasn't expecting Jerma at all
this might be your best vid yet, an absolute masterpiece!
I love your lore videos, every video is different and does not feel like it’s on repeat.
The Scooby-Doo running sound effect is an excellent touch.
that dramatization of Culling of Strathome was just too perfect for words..
*cry
2:30 you should upload this part as a short video too, it's soooo damn good
Dude, Old Biker Uther was Freaking Side-Splitting!!!
@5:00
Did Arthas to the right thing? - Absolutely, Stratholme was Lordaeron's second biggest city and everybody inside of it was due to become a soldier for the Scourge. Had Arthas not purged Stratholme, the Scourge would have become physically unstoppable and Lordaeron would have fallen within days.
What if a cure is created? - In the span of three days, for which Arthas, Jaina and Uther were already late? Unlikely. In fact, in the current Dragonflight lore it has been 20 years since the Scourge invaded Lordaeron, and there is *still* no cure for Undeath.
Is letting them turn into zombies a better decision? - No, because they were in a literal race against time versus Mal'Ganis, who spirited every new Scourge convert away in order to amass them. Waiting for them to turn would have been the same as handing Mal'Ganis an army.
Did the Plague really infect everyone? - Most likely, yes. The Plague of Undeath is known for being infectious not by ingesting it, but even just by being near it. And grain is a high-demand food, so most likely everybody got their part of the shipment, and got infected even if they hadn't eaten the grain yet. Every single Human NPC in Stratholme in the Caverns of Time dungeon turns into a zombie as well.
The Culling was a big turning point for Arthas - True, but so was the fact that he had to do it all alone. Jaina not taking part is understandable, she just assisted Arthas with the investigation but was never ordered or authorized by Antonidas to participate in a purge, but Uther actively shirked his duties as a protector of Lordaeron by refusing to take part. Sacrifice is the cornerstone of the Paladin ethos, and he refused to sacrifice his peace of mind for the sake of Lordaeron. The result was the fall of the kingdom as a whole.
TL;DR: Arthas did nothing wrong. Uther did everything wrong.
Damn... that reenactment. You earned a sub! and a like! to multiple videos.
Your content is hilarious! I'm always looking forward to seeing these
Thanks making the scene between Arthas, Uther and Jaina watchable so we didn’t cry
2:42 Attention all Silver Hands Paladins, Stratholme needs your help to put an end on a plague. All you have to do is give your credit card number, the three digits in the back and the expiration month and year. But you have to be quick, or Arthas will purge the entire city.
That was the best Uther i have ever seen.
Amazing stuff. As always I'll get too excited when I see platinum upload new video.
Plat....the fiverr skit...im just so shocked....people dont put this effort into their vids anymore.... YOU ARE THE BRINGER OF LIGHT
Pls i need one of this lore vids every single day to leep living. Amazing edits, 10/10 meme quality.
there is a timeline out there where Jaina and uther stayed and helped defend the town, possibly snapping arthas out of his obsession. wonder why that tineline is not considered the prime tineline by the titans
Uther’s casting was perfect. Take notes for future movies Blizzard
I was kinda expecting South Park lines when you talked about Timmy but when they came, I was still laughing out of surprise.
Best Warcraft Video Ever
Your German is exquisite!
well, that's now my head canon for how the culling happened
It's the most cruel fate in Warcraft III, to see him going mad day by day.. Seeing his kingdom fall, his mentor and lover abandoning him, forced to purge his own people and then the shit in Northrend... But atleast it gave us one of the most badass villain in Warcraft history... Well actually two because Arthas killed Sylvanas, so there's that also.
Love it
9:12 I love these Jerma greenscreen clips you've been using lately.
I didn't know you were such a big fan of him, Awesome!
4:24 LMAO squadW
The re-enacment gets me every time 😂
This is the best WoW content ever
The gnomes part made me sub :)
the squadW and jerma part killed me LOL
great video as always!
I love this video! I love Stratholme too though! It, Scholomance, and Shadow Fang Keep were always my two favorite dungeons! 😊
I love the jerma part like the fact you made use of the green screens that where quite old is awsome
You're doing a great job and with a very nice theatrical/comedy narrative style. My only tip would be to try to credit some of the sources, images and stuff you display on the video, whenever possible. Keep it up!
This video just cured my cancer! I will honor your name for the rest of my life!
I remember after running through Strathholme for the first time, telling my guildies that Timmy was a Boss. Only to have to explain to them that in Warcraft III you come across Timmy during the first part of the human campaign, then you come across him again as a neutral ghoul while destroying cages in Andorhal.
The painting "The massacre" by Peter Paul Reubens is a pretty accurate painting of Arthas purging Strat
VoiceoverPete deserves the Oscar
This reading of the culling was breathtaking
This is so great. Imagine they were teaching earth lore like this in schools. Kids would know so much more about our history.
