I really love how you use the hearthstone card format, it works so well cause your able to get in a name, picture, description of the person and race tag. It's honestly genius.
It hurts a little to see Guldan, who is a warlock in Hearthstone, inside the Demon Hunter frame, but honestly it's easy to ignore in the bigger picture
Just stumbled upon this while looking for Nobbel's series on Legion and decided "screw it, baby lore channel, let's give this a try." I'm about 20 minutes in and loving it so far! Really good job, thanks for making this! :)
Found this 2 years later after getting back into wow after quitting mid legion and I gotta say you did an amazing job. I can't wait to watch the other lore videos. Sad I don't see one for Shadowlands though.
i wish i saw this earlier. i'm happy you liked the videos and in particular this one cause this my favorite lore video ive made (im a big sucker for legion's music). but im sorry im not making a shadowlands or any other lore video. and aw man i do really appreciate the super thanks but you dont need to do that, if you wanna dm or email me or something i can figure out how to refund ya. just watching this video and not pointing out how i got the naaru ship name wrong, is more than enough for me
@Lawllin why won't you be making more videos for newer expansions? Yeah SL lore is shit but dragnflight is better and hopefully next expansions as well
These videos are wicked, I have been binging them all and recommended them to friends. I ignored so much of the narrative and lore while levelling and questing over the years since vanilla, and these have been wonderful. Looking forward to BFA.
Jaina Proudmoore's logic is magnificent. A dude goes crazy and starts a war, so now she hates the Horde. All of it. Forever. A spy betrays her, so now she hates Blood Elves. All of them. When the writers remember. Dalaran "betrays" her, so now she.... is on the archmage board of directors. ?????
Thanks for doing this man. i only played Warcraft 3, since i can't afford to buy a computer due to being poor. I'm really interested in the lore of the game, and since I'm poor, i wasn't able to experience and explore WoW. Man the story is sure deep and great one. from Orcs Vs Humans to Warriors/Heroes of The Planet Vs Cosmic Entity. Once again, Thank you for making this video!
Thank you so much for this. I missed a bunch of expansions and this really helped me. I know the script must have taken a while to make. Thank you again, got a new sub from me.
Imagine being a foot soldier miraculously surviving the horde, the scourge, the legion, the horde again, a super powerful dragon, the horde, the old ones, only for the legion to invade once more, and later the crazed undead leader of the horde to tear open a new one between the world living and the dead all in a lifetime
Suramar questline and grinding that rep and rebuilding their little underground stronghold is my favorite grind I've done in 15 years of wow. Great job on the video.
Wow, you truly deserve millions of subs!!! I'm new to world of warcraft. Thanks for these vids, mate. You are my fav lore channel. I tried Nobbie, or Nobble, but unfortunately I can't understand him when he talks because of that accent : ( Thanks so much for these!
1:13:14 Velen calmed them down? More like Turalyon got put in his place when Illidan stopped his sword with one hard. Velen, much like Genn, is one of the most useless characters in the setting.
Whats up with these goofy animations Blizzard started with in this or the previous expansion? What happened to the groundbreaking cinematics? The cutscenes looks like a kid show lol. But yeah I must say I haven't played these expansions so I might of course miss something essential.
Waiting for the story on Battle for Azeroth, good vids keep it up man :) I recently recommended your channel for a friend who's new to WoW and doesn't know what the heck is going on and he's saying you've been a great help! While I really love WoW's lore these vids were great to refresh my memory on some of the expansions. 10/10 I wish you good luck in the future!
@@RipzCritical Honestly, he might be having a hard time playing that expansion. And I can't imagine him trying to play Shadow Lands. The story there is a jumbled mess. But if anyone can make sense of it, it's Lawlin.
ty, glad you liked the vids. im taking a bit of break from wow since the legion vid was so long + medical reasons. i'll have a real bfa vid up before summer is over. not sure if i'll do shadowlands tho
Thank you for putting in the work. I've been reading all the lore in chronological order but since there's no Chronicles Vol. 4 yet, it's been a pain to piece together the Legion lore. I've mostly been using the wowwiki site and when I thought I was done, I watched your video and realized I had missed a bunch of stuff lol. Great video!
Is this all in game or is some of this pulled from the book lore? Playing catch up with all the stories since WoD and curious if this is all shown in game through quests.
This is why Legion was such a great expansion: You cut out the material that wasn't important and the video still ended up being over an hour long. They didn't have throwaway events that really didn't do much besides give them an excuse to make a cinematic. Each part of the expansion felt important. Like you were a cog in the wheel of the Horde/Alliance. People enjoyed it becuse the story didn't over fill the plot. Once again, great video!
The 5 k for fast flying could ez be earned via doing all quests in shadowmoon and netherstorm, not faming for month or so, only by doing all quests! This was done in around 5 days. I earned my fast flying view days after i hit maxlvl.
WAIT WAIT WAIT. look the the card "corrupted planet". @02:52 those tentacles split like roots...?!?!?! what is going on? do old god tentacles split like roots?
At this point Blizzard's games are retconning themselves in the same act, Tyrion was burned to nothing, then there was supposedly a body, then he was still alive, then he was dead again. Blizzard, why u do this? Why? Also, I love how done you sound by the time you start talking about the 'always been around' Xavius. Black Rook huh? Tl;Dr: Legion is about NPCs stealing the credit for everything the players did. As usual. Also, there is nothing new under the sun, all the plots are repeats of the old ones. They just went with more quantity this time.
I really like the card format, but holy hell. Gul'Dan is a warlock default hero, he has purple card borders, Mayev is a rogue skin, so black borders and Velen is a prophet of life, so why use mage border? And so on
Alright, I'm gonna be honest, I drifted in and out of sleep during this (your voice is too relaxing), but I still learned a lot. Illidan was literally dead?! Man, I just don't pay attention to things. Anyway, thanks!!
Not bad apart from changing the names like Vindicaar to Vindicator. Maybe it's just me who gets irritated by people pronouncing names wrong which I'm not sure why like I'm from Yorkshire we can't pronounce crap. Good job with the hearthstone stuff
its kinda relevent that you tell the listeners where you got that info from. Chronicles preface say: A HISTORY of the Warcraft Univers. Who writes History? Winner. its very very very relevant that you consider all information under this lens. It will tell you alot about what is about to happen in TWSS before it happens. considering this you can predicting shadowlands in 2015 instead of yelling retcon like so many.
Even with the storyline as convoluted as this, you have created a series of unparalleled lore videos about the Warcraft universe on TH-cam. I've listened to multiple before but you were able to articulate it and present it so much more effectively. Very well done.
I stumbled upon some of your videos after I saw an advertisement for Burning Crusade Classic and got to reminiscing with a friend. I wanted a good way to recap some key points in case he did choose to join me if ever there were to become a Wrath of the Lich King Classic server. You do not disappoint. You're thorough, and you're open about leaving some details out for sake of coherence and brevity. We really liked that. But while I mainly showed the friend your videos covering Warcraft rather than WoW, I couldn't help using these to relive all that I'd seen. And back when Legion content was new and relevant, I didn't have a computer that could allow me to play so I had to miss it. This helped me fill in gaps greatly. Thank you.
@@Lawllin thanks bro, I already saw all your warcraft series, pretty cool videos, the hearthstone cards are your thing and look great but it would be nice to include some video clips for some events if u can, keep the hard work ;)
Man WoW's lore is so convoluted lol they need better writers. It's like the universe has no rules and anyone can just arbitrarily do anything. I heard Legion was the best expansion in a while though. Idk haven't played since MoP and just resubbed for Classic TBC
I really love how you use the hearthstone card format, it works so well cause your able to get in a name, picture, description of the person and race tag. It's honestly genius.

These video’s are amazing man! I love the amount of effort you put into these. As a huge lore nut, they’re a delight to watch! :)
thanks a lot for watching and for the nice words! really happy you enjoyed the videos!

It's nice to have a channel to escape from the tiring Dutch English accent which tortures my soul.
Same! 😊
@@shadowsteppahI am Dutch and the way he speaks English is forced. Especially the rrrrrrrrr it's annoying af.

As someone who has never been able to undertand wow lore you made this so damn easy to follow. 10/10 work
TH-cam recommended me the entire Playlist of these .. not one video ... the Playlist
I have to say the algorithm was on point this time 👌
that's wild- i've never heard of youtube recommending a playlist before lol. happy to hear you liked the vids !
These videos are really awesome...I love how you explain everything and you really do take the time not to rush it :) great job on these
o7 glad you like them, ty for watching and for the nice words!
Absolutely love these videos, thank you for the time and effort you put into them! You're criminally under-subscribed for such high quality work!
Any chance you will be preparing BfA lore recap? Loved all the recap videos and would love to watch the BfA recap as well!
Excellent stuff. You blow this bigger lore TH-camrs out the water.
Best wow lore guy on TH-cam ! Keep it up brotha

Sounds like our 2016 to 2024 timespan tbh 😂😂😂
When I watch this, I realy feel like Legion was the last good WoW Expansion.
Suramar questline and grinding that rep and rebuilding their little underground stronghold is my favorite grind I've done in 15 years of wow. Great job on the video.
This was a fantastic video! I completely missed out on Legion unfortunately, so this is very helpful is keeping up!
Wow, you truly deserve millions of subs!!! I'm new to world of warcraft. Thanks for these vids, mate.

By far my favorite xpac since WotLK
the only expansion i played for more than a month since wrath
Awesome recap of one of the best expansions WoW ever had. Good job man.
I’m assuming birth rate went down after legion expansion drop holy shit love this story
Cant wait for bfa and shafowlands. I stopped playing mmos but still interested in wow and ff14s lore.
WAIT WAIT WAIT. look the the card "corrupted planet". @02:52
those tentacles split like roots...?!?!?! what is going on? do old god tentacles split like roots?
It seems you missed Warlock. Haha. Their story is quite interesting lore wise.

It was
Watched all your work with this series, just fantastic! waiting for the BfA and Shadowlands to come :)
You are doing god’s work here. I can’t stand most lore channels but you make things sound so interesting and natural. Subbed
awesome job on these!! i watch these videos everyday and each day i'm able to understand wow lore better and better.
that's great! im glad you're enjoying the videos!
@@Lawllin These videos are a reason that Im getting back in WoW. Cant thank you enough for putting these out.
Great video! Keep up the good work!!
Legion was so good it even surpassed wotlk which was already peak.
Heh~ The elements no longer listen to Thrall as they used because even they know he cheated! 😜
Man this makes me sad that I didn’t come back for legion l.
Alright, I'm gonna be honest, I drifted in and out of sleep during this (your voice is too relaxing), but I still learned a lot. Illidan was literally dead?! Man, I just don't pay attention to things. Anyway, thanks!!
I find this very relevant for The War Within.
Not bad apart from changing the names like Vindicaar to Vindicator. Maybe it's just me who gets irritated by people pronouncing names wrong which I'm not sure why like I'm from Yorkshire we can't pronounce crap. Good job with the hearthstone stuff
i thought it was the player character that would be highlord not liadrin
please, please do Slands and Dragonflight
when will you cover shawdowlands
its kinda relevent that you tell the listeners where you got that info from.
Chronicles preface say: A HISTORY of the Warcraft Univers.
Who writes History? Winner.
its very very very relevant that you consider all information under this lens. It will tell you alot about what is about to happen in TWSS before it happens.
considering this you can predicting shadowlands in 2015 instead of yelling retcon like so many.
@@Nagria2112 what?
@@Lawllin chronicles is from the perspective of the titans. its not the full story. the story has lies and an open end
Thank you so much. This was really good. And really helpful.
just started binging all your Warcraft lore videos. There is supposed to be 2 more after this right? :(
Comment for the algorithm. Also you do fantastic work
i appreciate the compliment and the algorithm comment
Yea the cards help tremendously
Lol rip the "new" firelord smolderon
Binged the whole series! Subscribed also 😁
I'll be following your content closely! Great job on these.
Great videos and the style of using the cards for characters is awesome. 👍
This is my fav xpac and this brought back good memories ☺️
WOW thanks for this!!1 i have returned to wow just recently and i am almost done with the legions story. Thx
No one dies like sylvanas and darrian lol
What sword? 😂
Great video my friend 😁
I love your videos bro

Velen is such a badass.
so glad i found these videos just before the new hhearthstone expansion about the titans
Hey man can I ask what the song is that’s playing around the 0:50 mark? I’ve been looking for this version for ages!
“Legion Soundtrack -3- Azeroth’s Last Hope” it’s the music from the cinematic- so it’s just the ending starting at 3:18 on that vid
@@Lawllin you’re a legend thank you so much mate!
Pretty sure the ship is called the Vindicaar, not Vindicator.
