@@arkeez1181 really? You did not see the cataclysm trailer with deathwing and just drool? I already loved wrath myself, Arthas was so cool. Then deathwing came and litterly set our world on fire, shattering our lands with just the strokes of his wings, causing tidal waves from just his shear size. I remember being like 14 or so, just so hyped for that expansion. I ended up not enjoying the gameplay as much as wrath or panda land. But the trailer itself was the hypest thing ever. Especially after how fun BC and Wrath was.
14.11.2021. And after all this time, it still brings shivers to my body. Greatest boss raid in the history of gaming and soundtrack couldn't fit better.
"The light will abandon you, hero.. Just as it did me" this line will ALWAYS give me chills. i loved how they included lines from Shadowmourne into the boss fight to really add to the immersion.
17:52 "You trained them well Fordring. You delivered THE GREATEST FIGHTING FORCE THIS WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN right into my hands." This was the first time a boss admitted how powerful the players actually were. And hearing this line after all the work your guild did to fight Arthas and the countless hours you did to get here... I remember finally killing him in 2009, hearing this line, and all the tears of pride just dripping down my face.
this was double layered tho, he does say you're strong but even he was able to kill you at any moment he wanted as he does. He killed all the players after testing them himself for just how strong they are, meaning that we played all along with the Lich King's plan unintentionally and we would have been the most powerful minions he's had if not for Tirion's luck to be able to break out of his bonds early while we were being resurrected.
This was it. Right there in 2009-2010. Wrath was the greatest expansion and we finally went after the biggest bad in Warcraft. To kill Arthas was epic beyond epic and the competition between top guilds was cutthroat. The fact that I was in a hopelessly far behind yet very fun guild didn't make the encounter less awesome. I wore that title with pride let me tell ya. Yogg-Saron and Arthas stand lonely at the very top of greatest raid encounters and lore significance.
One of the best boss kills recorded, the teamwork and coordination is something different.. The only guild to do him with the 5% buff also. Great fight!
@@MagicButterz if u think beef bar or progress makes a living out of playing classic wow u are wrong. How do I know this? I know longstanding members in both guilds. No money to be had in classic wow unless gdkp and sell to g2g
i remember killing him for the first time, we werent a top guild but we were the third guild on the server to kill him. it was very nervewrecking in the killtry and also entered the enrage. we all screamed like we had the world first and i also teared up. ive been following arthas story since 2002 in warcraft 3 so killing this boss was something different, especially after trying week after week after week. the lich king was a complete box of everything needed to make an epic boss fight. as silly as it might sound, i will remember this day forever and the people i was raiding at the time.
Yea thats what im waiting for lol havent played since warlords of draenor but when wrath remastered comes out im forsure buying a pc and playing tf outta it.
Ye, if only plot armor wasnt so strong to allow Tirion to miraculously break off the iceblock and shatter Frostmourne. Guess you cant mess with the Light, especially when its servants ask for *one final blessing*
this is the best video of Wow, ans shows how much person to person does come i games. i watch this vid at least once a month. cause i remember getting that server alert a guild on my server was first. still is a good feeling
I come back time to time. I get goosebumps so hard it almost feels like my soul is rising out of my body. Memories from the good old days just running through my brain. God I miss those days.

Lich King is still the top for me, all the time, work, effort put in to finally down him. The cheers on vent were epic, so thank you for posting this memory!
almost 2023 - i still return to this every once in a while - still loving it. damn Son.. An Karanir Thanagor Mor Ok Angalor Mor Ok Gorum Ro-mun A'l Ga Ballog A'l Enthu Korok Na Boda
I remember as a kid, finishing the campaign in warcraft 3 the frozen throne. The cinematic was the most ominous thing I'd ever seen. The story gripped me. When wow was announced, my first thought was .. OMG.. the story continues with Arthas. What will happen? Will he be the first boss? He wasn't in vanilla. I ended up not playing after TBC. I never saw the Arthas fight. Just now, I'm watching this and everything came rushing back. The conclusion of the matter is so perfect. Hair raisingly good. I don't think anything like this has been done in video games since.
That 103m health pool still chills my spine... that was ridiculous at the time :L ...to put it into perspective I think BQL had just under 78m health and that whole fight was done with the bite buff
how can blizzard have the audacity to touch this amazing part of the lore in shadowlands? this is the true ending of Frozen Throne saga and is so amazing.
These were the best years of the game. Ill never for get the satisfaction of killing the lich king for the first time. Ive watched this 20x throughout the years because it brings me back to that time.
When you hear the Autobots song at the ice hockey world championship medal presentation where the Finlad winned and you suddenly remember another epic win... It sounds like some secret anthem
Spent this whole Xpac of Wrath Classic being the off-tank for our raid (prot warrior), and my raid leader just pulled me aside last night and said I get to tank the Lich King for our raid. First time wrath player, and this shit gives me goosebumps. I'll be a hot mess the first time we down him!
Still to this day this is the GREATEST boss fight ever made! I earned "The Light of dawn" server 2nd (Horde first) back then with my guild and that wasnt just a title.......!!!! I still remember our nerd screams on ventrilo!!!
I stopped playing after we cleared 25 man heroic. I was in a really solid guild. I got lucky. Was never interested in going back after that. I played vanilla, that was hard af, then I missed bc and played lich. And I was always bummed I missed it before the buffs. BC was by far the best one.
Imagine your daily baby rage and compare it to that druid tank disconnecting in the middle of a world first fight. Thank god blizz allowed players to logg back then.
im in tears remembering how hards and fun was this raid, long time ago games were really dificult, so far so good this was the best and last expansion of wow, lets see if shadowlands can bring this memories back
10 years later, I still get goosebumps when Terenas shouts "Rise up, champions of the Light!"
YES!!!
For me is the last sentece of the fight ”The Lich King.. Must.. Fall!”
Terenas Menethil wants to resurrect you.
Decline.

The pinnacle of World of Warcraft in that moment, IMO.
This is still the best world first video of all time. #2022 and still watching with goosebumps
