Aesthetics, music and lore of the Night Elfs are amazing, but every victory is an empty shell, if Tyrande and Malfurion were removed from last 3 expansions, nothing in the story would change. I hope in dragonflight Blizzard return the former glory of the savage night elfs
Not only the night elves made... This is the case with many races of both Alliance and Horde. I wish that blizzard would stop with all the new bullshit we're getting and just focus on the races... We need a 5th war.
@@wowvinnyr4306 Yes 5th war! Sick of world of peace craft, one example of a now toothless race is Trolls, they used to be Human hating, Head hunting, Cannibals and now they’re all freakin zappy boi with gen x haircuts. I’m fully On board with that 5th war and bringing the races back to their roots! Their blood thirsty roots!
The real title of this video is "Tyrande gets crapped on and the Night Elves continue to suffer. Forever." I can't wait until the expansion after Dragonflight! The devs will say "Night Elves get a cool moment," and the 'cool' moment will be Malfurion turning into a tree for some reason and immediately being thrown in a wood chipper.
that one time Malfurion decided to not sleep, and he was clearly grumpy about it. another funny thing to note is: wc 3 Tyrande was so powerful she could hold back an endless tide of the undead, and the sheer power of prayers caused the bridge she was standing upon to collapse. What power up did the Night warrior exactly do?
Thanks for this fantastic recap! I have been Horde for so long (since BC gave us Blood Elves) and wanted to return to my original race, Night Elf, for the heritage quest and to be ready for the new world tree content. This is precisely the motivation I need to get the NElf leveled!
You know I used to pity Illidan for having sacrificed so much but failing to get the girl of his dreams and the thanks he so richly deserves. After seeing what Blizzard's done with Tyrande however I see now the bullet he dodged.
4:39 I expected this was the form End Time was describing when we fought her echo. I was wrong. So far, the visions in that dungeon have been correct. We have fought both Jaina (BFA), and Sylvanas (Shadowlands). I look forward to reuniting her with her husband! Baine, however........
What this sequence really reminded everyone of is the the Night Elves are not a bunch of peaceful tree huggers. They are an empire that challenged the might of both the Aliiance and the Horde during the 3rd War and the descendants of the primary force that held the line against the Burning Legion during their first incursion and were coming up almost even with only a minor assistance from the other races of Kalimdor such as the Tauren and some Earthen(IIRC). They are savage, merciless fighters backed by the strength of nature and the love and power of an actual goddess.
Btw, a little "trivia/easter egg" for those who are curious: In Warcraft 3, every hero had 3 basic skills to develop and a sort of iconic ultimate skill. Tyrande had "starfall", Malfurion had "tranquility"... And Maiev had one (iirc) that turned you into a big shadow avatar. I think that's somewhat where the inspiration for the Tyrande's ritual and new form came from.
Even if you HATE the Night Elves or the Alliance, you should be able to see how this kind of writing ruins the game for everyone. It's illogical and inconsistent. They've been miswritten since Vanilla but never to this extent. Their seething hatred for Night Elves is blatantly in your face since Cata. The idea that Nathanos could last even 2 seconds in a fight vs a 10-20 thousand year old, 7 foot tall warrior priestess, even WITHOUT the night warrior blessing, is laughable. Or that he could fight the world's oldest and most powerful druid, honed for 10 thousand years in the Emerald Dream. Both are literal demigods and Nathanos is a self insert zombie fuckboy.
Man, I feel like Malfurion got nerfed so hard in the games. I get they had to bring his power level into a reasonable place but this is/was kinda lame in comparison to how powerful he was early on. I'll never forget reading how he summoned a hurricane on land and effectively turned the entire landscape into a roiling sea of earth and stone - nearly killed the entire NE army during the initial battle with the Legion because of how upset he was.
Tyrande's Night Warrior's Wrath form reminds me SO MUCH of Illidan! The dual glaives, the glowing tattoos! The resemblance is so uncanny! 😂❤
I started as Nelf years back, so seeing my starting zone burn back then? ...Yeah that stung.

Expect 10.2 to finally bring a continuation to their lore, as it is likely the emerald dream patch.
At least tyranda is thick.

😂😂😂 this made me laugh way harder than I care to admit out loud
Not the wood chipper- 😂😂
More kindling for the fire! I will need more mushrooms

As much as I am a Hordie, Nathanos' final death pleases me to no end.
Because you are traitor not true horde or dont know his lore

As Captain Grim quoted in his video for launch of Shadowlands, "Oh my queen! We killed your boy-toy Nathanos! Are you available now, hm?!?!"

Tyrande now is alone: Illidan at Sargeras prison, and Malfurion at Ardenweald
Yeah... ...Though to be technical, Illidan IS the Prison.
You know I used to pity Illidan for having sacrificed so much but failing to get the girl of his dreams and the thanks he so richly deserves. After seeing what Blizzard's done with Tyrande however I see now the bullet he dodged.
blizzards graphic/art team is amazing wish they hire can better writers that are atleast half as good.
Blizzard’s version of what happened in Val’Sharah is very different from what I remember.
The first cut scene embodies the original essence of warcraft.

malfurion would be first to die since he would just sleep through the fight
I am new to wow , I am glad I chose night elves, best race killing the horde betrayers.
12:15 goosebumps in areas I didn't even know I could get

I am glad i found that poor kodo, i am sure he had much of fear.
They dont know what to do with Malfurion. Then, they killed him? Whoaa.....well, much better than continuing to ruining the character.
So vyranoth is going to get elunes tear out of the tree and choose vengeance over renewal. And use it against the titans. Or at least try to.
This has nothing to do with the Heritage armor, this is the night warrior eye coloring questline
Dammit banshee

Wow is a dying game pretty much.Came back for 7 days,burnt out.Everything about it is lazy.
Choose your side Alliance or Horce
Horce
Reminder that Sylvanas sucks, and that we got robed of 2 expansions of more Vol'jin as Warchief
Agreed they’re teasing us with bringing him back and then fully not touching on that for all of DF, we want VOL’JIN back ffs

Tyrande receives her seed ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Give Kal'dorei their immortality back
The sound is scratchy? Whats happening?
Time stamps are messed up.

Nathanos is such a bullshit character. So much disrespect for night elves from the blizz writers…
The way they killed off my boy nathanos erks me to this day.
He died as he lived - like a bitch.
