Hello. New series is gonna start on Tuesday. Shadows Rising by Madeleine Roux. The first part (prologue) is Alliance but I can assure you it's Horde stuff. Trolls. Bwonsamdi. Zappy-boi. It's gonna be fun.
I purchased book when it came out, but the alliance stuff in the beginning was so boring i still haven't went back. I cant wait for you to spice it up lol.
I must say I love the humour inserted into the story and it added a playful twist to the story keeping it relatable to my friends who are not gamers. Thank you for making game lore fun!!!!
It really says something when I've had this book on my bedside table for half a year and couldn't be bothered to read it but a 3 hour re-telling with a hint of British charm hooks me in minutes. Just discovered you but excited to sub and get through your other vids :)
@James Sunderland Unable to focus enough to read a book yet I spend hours a day on Google scholar researching papers for my 5000 word biology assignments. You sound like a pretentious twat. Nobody gives a shit if you prefer a hard copy to an audio book.
@James Sunderland a book wasn’t enough to catch my attention when I was like 6 fuck books I’ll just listen to someone else read it while I do some other shit time is money friend
After 15yrs of ignorance, not following the lore, I spent 3+hrs going, “Ahhh” “Yes. ok.” “Oh really?” “Ok” “Fuck me”. All peppered with laughter throughout. Brilliant. Cheers Mate.
another masterpiece, both the novel and your video. the way you convey the story in your style and animations and the voice acting. top notch stuff keep up the great work!
I'm not much of an audio book person nor a book reader, so I never got around to reading these. But I love warcraft lore especially about illidan.. im.having so much fun listening to this..amazing content.. thank you.
Basically Illidan was trying to save the world his entire life, and everybody is bitching about HOW he’s doing it, instead of the fact that he’s got it done. Yeah he did screwed up things, but in the end it saved so many more lives
“WE ARE NOT PREPARED.” Or “YOU ARE NOT PREPARED.” Is used interchangeably in this home in the illidan voice. Because I have triplets and 99% of the time someone is missing a shoe or forgot to try to use the potty (toddlers) so yeah WE ARE NOT PREPARED
I am so sick of Maiev being super salty to everyone because Illidan doesn’t chase her back or whatever. In the other supercut of shadows rising when she’s standing next to Tyrande I always wonder “she wanted to kill you and now she’s stalking your brother in law who is also madly in love with you. Was it an awkward car ride?”
1:51:55 >door opens >hundreds of guys that look like this pour out I've seen this happen quite a few times on video. What follows is not usually a battle though.
Just this week found your channel by coincidence. Love the supercuts! I've watched Arthas's and am finishing Illidan's now. So happy to see there's a few more for when I'm done :-D
Illidan is region locked on audible. Even if I can't read it in Aus, I'm glad to have this parody to give me insight to what goes on. I've mained a demon hunter since they released in Legion and I love their aesthetic to bits. Plus Illidan was always my favourite night elven character. Plus your witty inserts have made me bust a gut a few times. Lol
I love Demon Hunters as well. Although i rerolled to a BM Hunter a few expacs ago cos they kinda nerfed it. DH in MoP Remix is insane though; feels like Legion all over again and made me realise I might be a bit of a stickler for Power Fantasy lol.
@@FlyingButtress Oh yeah, I remember. Way back when, I could solo world bosses with the right vengeance build. You're not wrong re remix DH. Mine's currently sitting at 245% mastery - she runs faster than ground mounts. That is *bonkers*
Genuinely think this is the best Warcraft novel. William King of Gotrek and Felix fame should have been the cue they took going forward, for all their writing, in and out of game.
These are great for when im at work, iv gotten thru quite a few of the warcraft books, including arthus and war of the ancients. But i have a big back log of other books to get thru so its nice to have these to know if the book is worth haveing.
to be fair, archimonde is a demon, and the demons just kind of respawn, and at that point he hadn't been killed in alternate draenor because time shenanigans.
Ok the illidan impression is on point. Can we also address that illidan ends up facing down the burning legion and being a major player in the entire game because as a teen he was turned down by Tyrande? Literally this boils down to what a man will do when he has a broken heart
Somewhere there's a parallel universe where Illidan just Facebook-stalked Tyrande for a few months, joined the wrong subreddit and turned into an absolute tool
In that same universe, after yelling at an elf he held the door open for that didn’t give him her number, he shouted “YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!” And let it slam in her face
Thanks for this. I was always curious about this book, but have had bad experience with Warcraft book before (looking at you Knaak). Nice the book didn't change the context of Burning Crusade- It still had Illiidan as manic obsessive to the point he was not covering his flank. He was damned if he slowed down to "rule" Outland, and he was damned rushing forth to be ahead of the Legion's attacks. I was neat they added the Naruu visiting Illiidan. Gotta assume they did not everyone about his"destiny" cause he needed to die so they could (attempt) to to twist him to their side later. Maive remanded a believable zealot- putting her goals and racism before the needs of the people she was charged to protect.She is well written in her role, it is just painful how she is neither smart or has any curiosity in learning anything about anyone outside of her racist Night Elf bubble. Only thing missing was how Illidan had the skull of Guldan outside of his body. Would have been nice to have that burp scene. Also make one question if someone picked it up after wards for later plot. Or it it is like the One Ring and floated off to look for a new host. Going to have to read the full book now.
didn't Illidan go to the frozen throne to fight arthas after he fought magtheridon and Kil jaeden appeared? Second campaign is blood elves and naga where illidan gets BT, third campaign is undead where they fight. This video/book has a gap it seems.
I had literally just done the Arthas book and couldn't be arsed to edit / reanimate the same fight again. So I glossed over it. I think the book does touch on it.
Or I missed some part of the video or everything that happened in Legion between Illidan and Sargeras never happened (I did get the part where he was spirit wandering in Argus ^^)? Like the big sword and Illidan tp'ing away with Sargeras ? Nevertheless amazing video :p
This book came out several months before Legion launched so it's only up to the end of BC. Otherwise they would've spoiled the ending of the next expac (at the time lol).
@@HnHSaitou Lol. No probs. I only did the video a year ago apparently but yeah - the book came out 2016. I adapt the books as they are (add a bit of humour obviously) but I don't even attempt to write the additional stuff into it cos... well it would be like the last few seasons of Game of Thrones if I did that.
I realize how strange it is that the in-game story feels quite boring while these books are very fun, maybe would've been better to turn these stories into the actual plots of the game?
See - I feel like shit characters build worlds. lol. There's always that one person at work. Suck up. Works through their lunch break. Thinks they're hot shit. Everyone hates them. She's them.
@@FlyingButtress Yeah, Maive is a well written shit character. She has a believable motive, stacked on top of horrible traits aka racism and paranoia. Before going into more depth of Warcraft lore- I thought it was bad of Tyrande to have killed a bunch of Wardens to free Illidian. The reality is Maive put herself above her leaders and NE needs to rule her own little fiefdom with an iron fist. There is no reasoning with her.

Gasp!! I might actually read that book BEFORE I listen to your take! :D
Nice! Looking forward to it!
Sweet!!! Can’t wait!
I’ll buy the book after your rendition 😂😂
I purchased book when it came out, but the alliance stuff in the beginning was so boring i still haven't went back. I cant wait for you to spice it up lol.
Favorite part
"Now Maiev wasn't obsessed with Illidan. She just wanted to guard him and watch him sleep forever."
These are criminally underrated.
This format is the best Ive seen for any type of book summary / audiobook / visualization
"She could use blink again, it does only have a 15 second cooldown after all."
I can’t be the only person who thinks that’s a pretty decent Illidan impression...
Seriously sounded like Liam O'Brien a few times. I second this !
Liam Neeson
It's REALLY fucking good
This channel is painfully underrated. I like falling asleep to these stories
I do nearly every day and I love it. Flying Buttress makes the coolest re-tellings with very cute yet lowquality animations :D
Ive watched every single supercut to fall asleep to. Such good story telling
I dread the day that I no longer have new Flying Buttress content to watch 😰😭
This must have been an incredible amount of work.
I appreciate your takes on the "unwritten dialog" its so perfect.
Yeah it rly is lol genius
I must say I love the humour inserted into the story and it added a playful twist to the story keeping it relatable to my friends who are not gamers. Thank you for making game lore fun!!!!

@James Sunderland a book wasn’t enough to catch my attention when I was like 6 fuck books I’ll just listen to someone else read it while I do some other shit time is money friend
Exact same thing happened to me 😂😂
This is the last supercut, i dont want it to end. thank you for putting up these videos.
"Not vengeance, justice" ive heard that before
she was right illdian was horrible person who needed to be caged up until the time was right
This came up in autoplay as u was asleep. I woke up and found myself enthralled.
Definitely going back to the beginning and dropping a sub.
I gotta give you a big huge thanks friend you got me through that last bit of work with a smile on my face
Still blown away by how bomb the Illidan impression is.
Best moment?
“U wot, m8?”
But in Illidan voice
maiev KARENsong , the quintessential DIVA : fuck reason ! take me to your manager ,myuh
I liked the part where Illidan goes on a vision quest inside his vision quest...
“Perhaps if I ignore him… he’ll go away…”
Just one of the myriad things that makes me laugh when watching these Flying Buttress videos 😂
Best retelling of the story ever! Amazing job as always! Thanks, needed something to brighten my day up and this made me laugh so much at times! XD

Yeah pretty much. lol. I'm not surprised he just stayed behind at the end of Legion.

Even though I watched them all individually I’m still watching the Supercut!
how the hell do you only have 12k subs?! you're absolutely brilliant!
Maiev who is so careful of traps falls into one nice
I am so sick of Maiev being super salty to everyone because Illidan doesn’t chase her back or whatever. In the other supercut of shadows rising when she’s standing next to Tyrande I always wonder “she wanted to kill you and now she’s stalking your brother in law who is also madly in love with you. Was it an awkward car ride?”
“…and if you control the water, then… jobs are good…” 1:22:59
Flying Buttress for prez 2024 USA
Man, this is what they needed to do for the warcraft movie.
Somebody remind me to watch this after work, thanks!
did you remember bro
I did! I’ve watched this video about 4 times now.
2 years and only a 2k increase in subs?! I subbed after the the post on Hirum. Amazing work. Laughed so many times.
Glad I found your channel dude! Love this kinda stuff keep it up!
12:40 I don't know why i laughed so hard at "myuh She just wants his balls.... Myuh"
53:00 "Beg your pardon" XD had me dying LOL
1:51:55
>door opens
>hundreds of guys that look like this pour out
I've seen this happen quite a few times on video. What follows is not usually a battle though.
How do you only have 11k subs :O it's criminal. Top tier content man. keep doing what you're doing bro, it's amazing!
Just this week found your channel by coincidence. Love the supercuts! I've watched Arthas's and am finishing Illidan's now. So happy to see there's a few more for when I'm done :-D
I love your content! I hope this channel blows up! Please do more! I love, love, love this!
Man I love this story so much. Wish their retcon with the jailer’s doings had gone more like this
Illidan is region locked on audible. Even if I can't read it in Aus, I'm glad to have this parody to give me insight to what goes on. I've mained a demon hunter since they released in Legion and I love their aesthetic to bits. Plus Illidan was always my favourite night elven character.
Plus your witty inserts have made me bust a gut a few times. Lol
I love Demon Hunters as well. Although i rerolled to a BM Hunter a few expacs ago cos they kinda nerfed it. DH in MoP Remix is insane though; feels like Legion all over again and made me realise I might be a bit of a stickler for Power Fantasy lol.
@@FlyingButtress Oh yeah, I remember. Way back when, I could solo world bosses with the right vengeance build.
You're not wrong re remix DH. Mine's currently sitting at 245% mastery - she runs faster than ground mounts. That is *bonkers*
This is the perfect content to stay active on microsoft teams!
4:16 Magtheridon sounds like a tired blue-collar Brit XD
59:53 Those 3 would kick the unliving shit out of the Burning Legion.
Lol. I forgot about that joke. Yeah they probably would.
It wouldn't even be funny. Only sargearas would be a real challenge
@@SoulGizmo barely. Just a mid-expansion trial :D
who are they, though?
"they look like him, might as well be his kids" LOL XDD
31:08 "Of course Akama, never doubt it."
*Akama doubted it. He doubted it 100%.*
I just spit all over my monitor. xD
I preordered the silver-black one for myself. I've been waiting for this mod for so long. :)
A illidari playable faction would
Had been so cool
there is way too many races and class combos already
Love your stuff man, keep it up!
Hirumaredx sent me here, subbed for your work. Pretty cool man.
the warglaives´s supercut looks nice!
What a work, only 45k view, that's a shame... Great content dude
Better late than never, this made me sub
Genuinely think this is the best Warcraft novel. William King of Gotrek and Felix fame should have been the cue they took going forward, for all their writing, in and out of game.
Very funny so many little quick lines
Idk why you dont have more subscribers. These are awesome
2:56:07 ... lol Sargeras has a SIth temple, no wonder Ilidan was paranoid in the temple, from the pressure of the dark side
Super happy to see a supercut!
this was surprisingly interesting. And I never cared of the story in wow back in the day! very good job.
These are great for when im at work, iv gotten thru quite a few of the warcraft books, including arthus and war of the ancients. But i have a big back log of other books to get thru so its nice to have these to know if the book is worth haveing.
Once Illidan saw the heroes breaking into the black temple, he should have dropped his warglaives and cheesed it.
to be fair, archimonde is a demon, and the demons just kind of respawn, and at that point he hadn't been killed in alternate draenor because time shenanigans.
Great SuperBUTT my good sir.
Hope ya had a great Xmas and Happy new years!
Cheers mate!
Cheers mate. You too! I'm looking forward to being back with a new vid in a few days.
Ok the illidan impression is on point.

Got something to watch after work now!
1:23:57 some "aldor" guards ... cough cough "shattered sun" cough
1:28:18 I can imagine Akama shaking violently right there
This was awesome

Love the Iron Maiden reference at 1:39:55
Myuh...she just wants his balls Myuh.
I laughed so hard 😂
The iron maiden mt rushmore was epic.

i already knew the story but this was class to watch haha
Hey got a question, does the book go into why Needle’s eyes are sown shut? I get the mouth but why the eyes?
i don'T think it did, sorry to say
Thank you.
The inner demon is so funny
14:00 had me in tears!! hahaha
No espero que se acabe el WoW ni exijo WoW 2 pero otros 20 años con ese motor grafico, uffff no se.
Preferiría un final digno que ver un 20.0.
Great job Thank you
The amount of subs and views on this is an E-crime. I just watched this and yelled out loud Where is part two.
Rly enjoyed this.
crazy batman lady :)))) i love it
36:30 - LOL...really, LOL kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
so good!
your videos are great! keep it up
I realize how strange it is that the in-game story feels quite boring while these books are very fun, maybe would've been better to turn these stories into the actual plots of the game?
Awesome stuff
illidan did nothing wrong
He should've kept better relation with kael
Can not explain to you how badly I want these videos to stop playing on my auto player lol Idek what to do
if you mean its in your recommended, just watch random non warcraft stuff and theyll stop showing up after a few videos
Supercut* woooo!
Worms worms worms
I like akama
thumbs up.
I just can’t get past the over enunciated S’s 😞
God, maive is such a terrible character, it's super hard to be sympathetic towards her
See - I feel like shit characters build worlds. lol. There's always that one person at work. Suck up. Works through their lunch break. Thinks they're hot shit. Everyone hates them.
She's them.
@@FlyingButtress oh yes, she's definitely believable shitty, and you bring that up to the forefront. Love your content by the way
