I actually liked how Grim used the dial up modem connection sound to compare to Derek's capacity to read the room instead of lagging. Lagging hasn't really been an issue for at least a decade now so it's basically irrelevant except to us very old school vanilla players. ;) Was a neat choice.
My entire group PvP experience can be summed up to: - Login to Horde character - lose, lose, lose. - Switch to Alliance character - lose, lose, lose...
Makes you wonder if you're the problem but you'll have top damage or top healing. Most objectives tagged. The only person that stays behind to defend objectives until they cap everyone else just leaves and it gets taken back. In that one BG the only person that grabs orbs. 🤷
Haha. Man. I was just talking about this the other day. ROFL. I lost 5 in a row on horde jumped on alliance and lost 3 in a row. I just logged off. lol.
@@Theigzorn areana is the only pvp ive done! bg and rbgs are a waste of time and energy! people refuse to play together! its not just wow! all pvp makes for some toxic behaviour!
The heroic face-off between the fury warrior and death knight in order to protect Derek was one of the most epic things I have witnessed, and what followed has to be one of the most funniest minutes I have ever seen, literally laughing my ass off, well done Captain Grim.
And by the time goes, we continue understanding Derek. He choosed probably to be happy and play the game, besides Blizzard doing shit working by creating monster classes, he'll be the trashier human that don't have ANYTHING good, but will try to carry the flag and enjoy the game. Such a example of a player. I hope I can be a better Derek than Derek does.
Carrying in all the grocery bags in one trip has trained his mind and body. He knows true strength is making his mom proud of what a big strong boy she's raised.
OMG IT'S DEREK! LET'S GO DEREK! Also, I love how Derek was unironically the best player in the entire match, not only was he the only one who took the objective remotely seriously, but he also managed to unite the entire divided alliance team to help his cause.
You've really been improving with your effects work, well done! I wish the pvp gods joined my games when the rest abondoned WSG, alas 'tis but a fantasy.
Oh yeah, that's exsctly how it went inside of my head back in 2008, I just picked up wow for the very 1st time when 3.2. Ulduar was announced. I was warrior back then, got obliterated by this DK wearing "best pvp set in season" which was relentless. My friend and I were drooling over it while getting slaughtered in OG Thousand Needles. Today, after many years, I am that DK, gripping and coiling nabs. ^^. Never went back, only Dk since wotlk onwards. And that death coil charge animation...perfekt.
2:29 The person who actually wants to win, Respect. Also, always fun to hear the original PvP Battleground Theme again. One of the best songs in WoW; but hardly ever used.
@@GuardianNamick To be fair, if someone is not even invested enough in PvP to see an obvious advantage in wearing PvP-gear, then honestly they deserve to get rekt, until they learn
@@GuardianNamick Sad thing is though, PvP is so horribly unbalanced and has THE worst matchmaking system known to man.... more often than not, you'll end up like the Horde did here... up against a pre-made group in god-tier gear which you can't do diddly squat against. In short... fair complaint really.
3:18 Internal Monologue: "You've got this, Derrick. Just don't stand in the fire, Derrick. Just don't stand in the fire around you AND take the flag to the base. Two whole things, oh man this is too much to remember!!"
5:22 This is so spot-on. I'll never forget the Warsong Gulch I joined, 0/3 - 2/3 It was just after NA work hours, so all the bottom-liners came lumbering home, gritting their teeth, ready to take out their work-frustrations on some Alliance kids by farming them at the graveyard for the entire duration of the match, like a virtual pillow to scream into. I ran unhindered, all the way over and grabbed the flag and their rogue was like "Heh! I got this one boys 😈"... That guy was in the dirt before he could even do damage. I ran back, grabbed 2nd flag. Rogue and another guy came running. Same story. Bam 2/3 - 2/3. NOW it stirred the hive as I grabbed the 3rd flag and made it past the middle, but there was nothing they could do about it. I think they tried to grab the Alliance Flag and joined to intercept me. Worst mistake they could do. 3/3 - 2/3 POP! They all got pity-points for their hubris, as the Alliance kids they had been farming ended up getting loads more points and for me... it was just another day, another 5 minutes in WOW PVP. 😂 Nice one!
I always love how damn spot on these are :D What could've also been there was a noob druid who grabs the flag, runs outside the enemy base and switches to travel form (dropping the flag), running all the way to the friendly base and being confused why he didn't cap. Definitely and totally wasn't me back in the day
My lord... the accuracy.... It's uncanny. Every. single. second of it. I want to laugh but my jaw is still on the ground. You ability to capture these moments is off the charts.
your videos are legendary. I saw Savix react to your video and now i watched ALL of your videos on the same day. Yes, i literally did nothing else, and it was amazing. You're a rockstar, man.
aw thanks Subutai, glad you think that x) yea, I did try my hand at some 2d stuff but still Very much to learn lol thanks again though, wishing you well!
Welcome back Cap! Laughed my Ass off. Animations went fking nuts m8!! Dont even know where to start. Just glad to have you back once a while. Great Job as always
That Nelf warrior rushing in to save Derek (The dumbass) was so anime and badass. And i wont lie i expected Derek to just go absolutely nuts on that death knight when he got gripped. But alas, Derek is just Derek.
You also need to add the grueling stalemate when both sides have 2/3 and both have the flag ... while no one goes to help the one person trying to take it back so the others can capture while EVERYONE basically turtles down XD
Holy shit, I didn't merely watch a video just now, Grim magically took every Warsong Gulch memory out of my head with perfect accuracy, and then re-exposed me to them.
Welcome back Grim, a friend and I always put your videos at the same time when we are talking over Mumble to have a hearty laugh. Thank you for those moments I share with him.
Roleplaying dwarf, Derek and Derek's friend are the best. They don't complain, they don't leave, they do their best and they try to stay in high spirits, even though they are not the best at the game. I would have loved to be in a guild with these three back in my active days.
1:15 i can relate to this feeling, just wanting to complete something that doesn't require you to win but seing something so nasty that you just rather leave and try a new match rather than stand there watching some bullshit that feels unfair.
Amazing video, haven't laughed so hard at an animated video in a long time! Even though I played wow more then 15 years ago, this was so accurate regarding Warsong Gulch!
Been a while :)

I love Derek so much.
@@ferallyeasy6469 Does any of us know where we are at?

I loved the RP dwarf who recounted every detail of the match. Together with Derek and his impeccable performance, they were the spirit of the team.
"We'll hold them off"
"they broken through"
that dwarf character broke me
just like his defense xD
"hey that's unfair you're wearing pvp gear" me whenever I occasionally decided to pvp
I love that Derek and his friend are reoccurring characters now.
"mommy said she'll be home in 5 minutes" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gotta farm those Good Boy Points.

@@patricklourenco9429 Don't make me cry
Derek never lets us down
Exactly and I still laughed my ass off 😂
My first thought was running on the spot lagging when I heard the dial up :D
I may left WoW forever but I'll always return to Captain Grim.
Right there with you.
same, here bro. was good time. ^^
Derek, the biggest hero of the Alliance and of Azeroth
When he's not lagging
As someone who is named Derek, and experienced constant lag back in the day. This is a very accurate description of me.
YOU CAN DO IT DEREK, WE BELIEVE IN YOU!
It was so nice of one of the horde players to tell him to go in the right direction. Now that is true sportsmanship.
this was incredible! the way you depicted the druid wanting the flag and blasting across the map was so well done!
What can I say? Years of firsthand experience with all that :)
When the world needed him most, HE RETURNED!
Somehow.... Captain Grim returned!
YES
Derek is alaays back when world is in need.
Oh man. The night elf clashing with the orc DK(?) is beautiful. The funny parts of the video are amazing but that was goddamn heroic.
Pvpaltfive is such a good son, prioritizing helping his mother.
Carrying in all the grocery bags in one trip has trained his mind and body. He knows true strength is making his mom proud of what a big strong boy she's raised.
@@Tundra. More like she'll stop letting him use her card for RMT so he can get runs.

Definitely brought up some memories 🥲
RIP Charles, your eloquent speech had me praying for your safe arrival at home base
You've really been improving with your effects work, well done!
I wish the pvp gods joined my games when the rest abondoned WSG, alas 'tis but a fantasy.
true, doesn't really happen, But what does happen from memory, is sometimes a lot stronger people join on the enemy team and roll us xd
sounds like me fighting horde in retail
ye. im having some good friends and we often join in losing bg and roll it up to a win)))
Nicest Undead Rogue I've seen: gives his foes advice, doesn't immediately stunlock n' stab, no /spits or /laugh, real swell guy!

10/10 xD

Only thing missing is Alliance getting farmed in the graveyard after Horde grabs 2 flags
It works both ways
My favorite part 😄
and THEN the premade joins
Me as an alliance player farmed Horde quite much. And then, we were also farmed many times :-D :-D
@@RW77777777 *EXACTLY* That's why I always tell them to cap and hope that they listen, lol.

At least Derek IS TRYING.
That puts him above almost every rando
These characters are iconic.
I've started instantly realizing who they are the moment I saw the models.
Man, the sequence starting at 2:15 was actually sick looking though. Really cool edits.
It's been years since I did a battleground and I suddenly remember why
fun as hell dude. this video is literally 100% on point. Well done as always
Thanks! Means a lot :)
LET’S GOOOO! The captain found his ship again! WELCOME BACK!
The premade group is scary.....IM GLAD U BACK BRO
I swear, I was in this exactly Warsong, and it happens only 3 out of 4 times... but without new good people joining...
The only time new good people join, is when I'm the horde player that was up 2 flags. Cause I am not allowed to ever be on a winning team.
your videos are legendary. I saw Savix react to your video and now i watched ALL of your videos on the same day. Yes, i literally did nothing else, and it was amazing.
You're a rockstar, man.

aw thanks Subutai, glad you think that x) yea, I did try my hand at some 2d stuff but still Very much to learn lol

And i wont lie i expected Derek to just go absolutely nuts on that death knight when he got gripped.
But alas, Derek is just Derek.
ngl was half expecting the BG to just end before Derek could of made it
I was expecting him to get stuck in a wall infront of the alliance base
Captain you unironically have better story writing than the entire Blizzard writing team. Thank you for such great videos time after time.
Amazing video as always! Welcome back Captain!
This video was perfect, especially the Derek part and the alliance premade arrival xD.

CAPTAIN ON DECK!! Welcome back.
Derek is adorable, even that forsaken rogue thought do!
This is why I don't do battlegrounds.
Thats not so bad. From Horde perspective it is always "locked Alliance on respawn" or "everyone fight and noone cares about flags.
get gud
When a bunch of players in top tier gear join AS A GROUP, then you know sh*t just got real
There ain't no other machinima like this guy's.
This is your best video yet. More battlegrounds please!
Top tier video!
thanks! glad you liked it :D
This is easily your best work Grim. FKIN HELL THAT WAS GOOD
Hahaha I friking knew it!!! 4:52 I was waiting for that moment 😂😂😂
the pov used at 1:30 for the cat running, coupled with the guitar is amazing lmao had me diein. Captain Grim def one of the best channels on yt
I'm sick right now and couching as I can't stop laughing watching this. The " You cheating with the full PvP gear " part got me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
thank you captain for your best work yet. the speed metal tauren was absolutely on point.
that tauren druid flag carry sequence morph and animation and everything was amazing!
Keep it up!
Loved the video, every single part. Also it's nice that you used WOTLK as reference (gear wise) :)
woke up to happiness ♥Grim uploaded
Never played WOW, but the guy who takes the buffs from the guy actually doing the objective is universal.
This cant be the real Derek he didn't stept in the fiere.
He even dodged all the fire!
The Druid running at mach Jesus and the death grip towards the end were just 🤌🏼
only Alliance premades have a chance. With random teams... Horde always wins,
"Horde always wins" lol, not by my experience.. only if they are premades instead.
So true, throughout all years
Alliance are so bad lool, they actually do just lose every BG except premades
i was about to comment that "ya horde wins, they allways win WSG" was not expecting alliance full pvp to join in and demolish. this was amazing.
0:22 missed chance to use virtual insanity but i dont want u to get demonitized just in case but still funny
1:30 I'll recognise this guitar solo anywhere. POWER OF THE HORDE!!! \,,/
went from dramatic too wholesome...
goddamnit Grim, stop trying to make me like this bg!

Amazing video, haven't laughed so hard at an animated video in a long time! Even though I played wow more then 15 years ago, this was so accurate regarding Warsong Gulch!

A true work of art.
My vocabulary isn't vast enough to give proper compliments.
Well done.
