Amazing cutscene in Halo Wars 2 that explains the Atriox's background. Game Movie is coming soon!

Prophet Of Truth: "I'm supposed to be fighting off humanity and starting the Great Journey, but this one Brute keeps kicking my ass."
Brian Tezuka Is it thebrute27?
*Tartarus smirks, revealing he is thebrute27*

"TheBrute27 WORKS for Atriox?!"
He knew something.
He was blinded by his own selfishness
Tl;dr version of Cutter's speech:
We've all run the simulations! They're tough, but they AIN'T invincible!
I understood that reference
Dam scarabs
Stay with Jerome-092. He'll know what to do.
@@holdguard4624 Yes Sir Sergeant!
Isabel: “Thanks for the tank. He never gets me anything.”
Think about this, atriox just stood there when he was defying the elites around him. When the elite was gonna execute him he just stood there, even when the other brutes started to fight he never moved. He put his trust into his brute brothers and knew they would fight for him. Talk about trust
The scene in the Game is being told based on the information that the Humans have received.
Atriok did talk to the Sangheili Executioner in the Comic Book, Halo Rise of Atriok.
Atriok's words and actions inspired the Jiralhanae to join Atriok.
The heck is "Atriok"?
Abby The Lovely Peice of Garbage Don't be a smart ass, you know what they meant. It's one letter they missed, use some common sense.
Im sure Atriox wouldve won by himself
But..they were blue elites...
"We need to run, as far and as fast as we can!"
"Yeah, about that, we kinda blew up our slipspace drive."
lol true, they didn't really have a choice
Even if we hadn't, running before the fight begins is for cowards
@@Chino56751 Dying in a hopeless fight is for idiots.
@@cyclopsdias
Many war heroes would strongly disagree.
@@w1ndgeneral226 Ιf they followed this mentality and they disagree,either the fight wasn't hopeless or they didn't survive.In either case,no way for them to disagree.
Combat is fought to achieve one purpose:a certain result,that is usually winning but can also be delaying the enemy.If you don't retreat from a fight that you re likely to lose for no reason other than bravery,you re not proving you re brave.You re proving you are an idiot.
War heroism gets you so far.Proper tactics,preparation and technology are the real ways to win a war.
Atriox is like the brute Arbiter. They both were tired of the abuse that they experience and they rebelled. Atriox retaliated against the elites and the Arbiter retaliated against the brutes. Tbh I would love to see these two fight to a stand still and then realize the real threat which is Cortana.
Hell yeah that would be lit
If Atriox makes even a brief pact with Arbiter I'd be surprised, but super giddy
Austin Rattanavongsa fuck the best thing that we would ever see is
Master Chief, Arbiter, Atriox fighting Cortana's forces together.
Soul.Charisma that sounds like a Batman vs Superman movie where they fight for 4 minutes and then realize that they should go to a futuristic cafe where they drink and become friends but then immediately go to fight the real villain.
Soul.Charisma wait Cortana is a treat, I thought she died in halo 4. And why she a treat? 😨
The fact that a brute was able to crush an elites throat with a single squeeze of his hand shows you how terrifyingly strong brutes are...
Yeah brutes are much stronger than elites and spartans II, III and IV
Also, we haven't seen them in their full strength just like apes in our world, they dont use bodybuilding techniques like we humans do and they are hell of a lot stronger than us even if its consider weak by their own clans men. May God help us all 😅
@@dragonleo_ Yup in one of the Books one Brute almost killed the Master Chief
I feel like a spartan II or III could crush an elites throat with one hand if they really tried
Apparently he turned his energy shield off for no reason cuz that wouldn't have happened otherwise
Never pick a fight with a man who has nothing left to lose.
TheEverydayGamer1000 Stop it.
SimpleArbiter you stop
lol You're two months late.
SimpleArbiter kiss my ass
bob elserr That's Gay.
This single cutscene was better than entire halo 5.
tbh
True. Very true.
Too true. Though is it really that hard for something to be better than Halo 5?
True (spartan Locke sucks)
@Big Boss lesbian? Because she has shirt hair she's a lesbian?
Now THIS is good writing. In just one cutscene, we get everything we need to know about our main antagonist: his motivations, his backstory, and the threat he poses. Kevin Grace, you have done so much to restore my faith in 343 Industries.
*Throws pen and paper at Brian Reed.*
Start taking notes my good man!
I wish he would have written last season of GoT.................
Who is writing Halo Infinite?
@@stilt_skin_my_rumple6655 Josh Holmes quit, Reed quit or was fired. Now Paul Crocker, the writer of the first 2 Arkham games is the Narrative director , and rumors say that Kevin Grace is writing it with him.
@@shockwave6213 Wait the writer for the Batman Arkham games is working on Halo Infinite story?
Just a fuckload of exposition. It's shit writing. Almost as bad as GoT season 8
Little detail I just noticed: When Atriox catches the energy sword before it hits him, his hand is too big to fit, and the plasma burns him. Such attention to detail.
Was just about to comment this i noticed it sliced his hand a bit
Another cool little bit is that he has tally marks on his gravity hammer, probably one for each time he came back alone from those suicide missions.
I commented this like 2 years ago on this video 😂 snooze i lose ig
I wonder if that's why that arm has the armored mechanical crusher-glove thing on it
I never notices that cool!
Show of hands. Who would have preferred a game where you actually played as Atriox, and slowly built up a rebellion?
Peter I wish, but this is halo where it's all about "humanity FUCK YEAH" making a compelling story of other races is apparently not interesting to write about.
Not really the same but there's going to be story dlc for this game where you play as the banished, it's basically set after the events of the main game. It's called halo wars 2 awakening the nightmare plus you get more blur cutscenes in it as well.
Ayyyy
Nonya Bisnis how long has it been since we played him or gotten to see a huge story from him? The best we get are mentions or stories where he’s a side character. Also atriox is a unique experience in that he’s not gun hoe of wanting humanity to be the new empire of the universe, whereas the arbiter doesn’t seem to worry about it as much considering he’s busy with his own civil war. ( which was supported by oni)
GAEM Stuff anything else? Or only just halo 2? Halo 3 doesn’t count as the arbiter didn’t get his own story but was more of a sidekick
Who else is excited to see the Banished in Halo: Infinite?
Me
Fuck yeah! I cant wait to fight those guys!
Mee
Me. Honestly way more bad ass than the Covenant.
Quick question, who are the Banished?
Cutter's speech gets me everytime. We need more captains like him or more speeches like his
More captains and soldiers
Atticus Weed
I KNOW, right?
almost as good as Sgt Johnson speech
Ironic he seems to be an older man but this guy has more balls than the Captain of Infinity who chose to be a coward and not aid legendary soldier hero of the universe Master Chief in the fight against the Didact.
Del Rio: "SURRENDER THAT A.I!"
02:24 The fact that he actually grabs through the energy sword, you can see how it cuts through the sides of his hand is so badass and such an awesome detail added
Without so much as a flinch of pain either. Shows just how little he cares. After all, when you have nothing left to loose, why fear?
That's probably why he got metal hand
After what happened with Tartarus, I hated the Brutes. With the introduction of Atriox, I'm now kinda scared of them.
Remember, there's one thing we all must fear...the Flood, they are relentless, a swarm, a plague to the universe, and a pestilence to all, if they're gonna bring back the flood, they should make them have flood Spartans, brutes, hunters, and humans, a gravemind with the intellect of an AI,
@@yazziegaming3090 Hunters can't be infected by the flood though. They don't have a spine, a central nervous system.
@@aegis6485 not sure what I was thinking when I typed that, thank you for the info
@@yazziegaming3090 No problem. It happens sometimes. I think Grunts and Jackals can be infected too but I'm not too sure
@@aegis6485 I gotta go back and watch some Halo flood lore, that's what I was thinking flood grunt and jakals
Blur really needs to do the cutscenes for Halo 6.
I think they will its looking good
SovietHotPocket reach fell with nooble 6
sandy Lucker I see what you did there..."NOOBle 6"
how would their be a reach 2 lol the game ends with the planet fucking glassed and everyone dead reach is done remember reach cause that shit aint comming back
besides everyone would just complain that its not like the first halo reach so whats the point
2:55 You can barely see it in the background, but one of the Brutes full up threw his gravity hammer into an Elite
Lol
Lmao nice eye. Brutes are savages
Oh shit
Hahah damn
Good eye when I saw it I thought holy Fuck its thor but reincarnated as a halo brute
5:23 "self destruct sequence activated"
"Shit wrong button"
"Roll halo wars 2 credits"
General Kota- "ABANDON SHIP, ABANDON SHIIIP"
RvB Reference by any chance? Season 14? With those other guys on the Spaceship?
@@crimsonquill4255 wait which part?
@@rebeck6651 can't remember...I think the mini-arc starting with 'Orange is the new Red'.
just noticed decimus is the brute doing the backbreaker ha ha
Matt D He's actually the strongest of the group. If you look closely in some parts of the cutscene he towers over Atriox
Decimus ain't no joke
Deciumus took out 4 elites with no problem in the background.
He went all bane on that elite.
Yeah he died though in hw2 didn't he
2:57 is truly terrifying!
As a Reminder: This is what an Elite would do to an average human who is even significantly smaller and weaker.
I like how brutes are very strong and shit but i like the fact that élites are much faster
@@JOSEGOMEZ-hu3pt elites are typically smarter and have better agility/speed
@@benthebiscuit1717 yes
when grunts are supposed to be near 6 feet tall 😶🌫
That Elite was the equivalent of what The Rock would look like against any elite.
"Humanity will burn.Their brazen defiance will be all but a memory. No more prophets, no more lies. We stand together, brothers to the end. We are his will, we are his legacy, we are The Banished."
Chills mate
What I love about Halo Wars 2 is how we see the brutes compared to the elites. Sure, in halo 2 the brutes slaughtered them, but prior, u have to understand just how shit it wasfor them to be treated like grunts/jackals
Ikr
I honestly hope that later in the series there are peace talks with the Brutes. Seeing a UNSC/Sangheili/Jiralhanae alliance would be awesome. And the Banished are proof that Brutes and Elites can forget their differences over a common cause.
Peter K- Granted the Banished a very...basic, form of cooperation, but this is true. While Decimus still harbours grudges and Volir hates every second of his alliance, the warriors of both races highly respect Atriox, proving an alliance between the two is not impossible.
DictatorSayers the Brutes didnt slaughter the elites in halo 2
captainhalo568 so it was atroix that murdered them in halo 2 anniversary?
I love the way they paint the image of atriox as such a badass. The way he took down 3 Spartans, almost killed one, and defied the entire covenant.... I think he is honestly the only bad guy I've ever been impressed by in any game I've played in the 15 or so years I have been playing.
and fucked up master chief in halo infinite's first cut-scene...
@@niks660097 Nice spoiler. This comment is four years old...there's no reason to have responded with that spoiler.
@@ryancleaver6613 dude all trailers have this scene, this is the first cut-scene..
@@niks660097 what trailer has that scene
@@ryancleaver6613 It's literally the first cut scene
Atriox was what made me fall in love with the Jiralhanae. Imposing, Badass, not a religious fanatic.
Atriox knows the wae.
Still not a fan of them compared to Sangheilis. Jiralhanae get into fist fights over the smallest piece of loot or step in the hierarchy, and in fact were just killing eachother until the covenant took them in.
Compared to that, the Elites have a real sense of honor and organization, even if it was misguided for a very long time. A sangheili obeys orders from his superiors without question as not doing so would stain his honor, that he values above anything else (although exceptions exist, like the Shipmaster, although it depends heavily on what the elite in question considers to be the most honorable thing to do, and in the case of the shipmaster, the life of his crew mattered more in his eyes than his allegiance to the Covenant), a jiralhanae does it out of blodlust or fear of punishment.
I fucking love them as a an enemy type and the lore is damn good. Also they are just 1 half of humanity while the elites are the other. War mongering and honorable beings that put others before them selves. 2 aspects that are very common with us.
Also, you make it sound like just because in game they are just mindless killers that you cant enjoy them at all. I know you didn't, and you did say compared to the elites, but still.
Should read Halo: :Last light if you hadn't yet, has a lot of the "imperialistic" side of brutes, such as their own honour, hierarchy and tactics. I will say though if you haven't read any of the books, this one has returning characters from ghosts of onyx through to the Kilo-Five Trilogy
You know what everything the brutes were in hall 2, 3 and reach? Everything that was the opposite of what you just said. Yes Atriox is the only reason I have respected brutes.
God I love Cutter's speech, and the simple way Isabel acknowledges that Cutter has changed her mind on running.
"Sir, yes sir."
Never thought I'd see myself rooting for brutes over a squad of elites
Ikr
Atriox is a heretic and must be purged in the name of the god emperor.
Adam Ryan covenant don’t believe in god you arrogant swine
Fawnodin 123 do you know nothing of Warhammer 40k?
Baby Blue I do but what does warhammer has to do with halo
Captain Cutter better not be dead. They better not have destroyed the Spirit of Fire off screen. These characters deserve their spot in the main games of Halo. I think all of us want to see Jerome in infinite
As seen in the books, they are still alive and well and fighting on the Ark. Most recently, they stopped the Keepers of the One Freedom from firing the Halo Rings and they FINALLY destroyed the rogue Forerunner AI Intrepid Eye, a MAJOR recurring antagonist in the book series. The Spirit of Fire finally got her after she survived and escaped too many damn times in the books.
Id love to see Red team and/or spirit of fire in infinite or a new mainline halo title
@@DiamondxCyborg 100% agree. Honestly, I think those characters should slowly transition to being the spotlight with just a handful of characters from Infinite sticking around.
That brute with the Santa Claus hair was a fucking champ...took out 4 elites in like 20 seconds
That would be Decimus sir
LEOTEACO his name is literal!
That's decimus, his right hand man
Santa Claus hair 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Never bought I'd see a bunch of brutes absolutely own a squad of elites.
daikaiju lord
Brutes are stronger than Elites in hand to hand combat. But Elites have better judgement.
daikaiju lord seeing how huge elites are then seeing how small they are compared to the brutes is terrifying.
They're more or less the same size, but elites appear shorter due to their stance and the way their knees are. Brutes are just a lot more bulky
although the scene was dope not to be a fanboy it was unrealistic. How does he possibly grab a plasma sword and not loose his entire arm. And how the elites knowing how skilled they can be just get ran over. They just got plain tossed around like rag doll
sinai henderson If you look *closely*, Atriox grabs the elites hand, not the blade itself. And the rest of the elites had no idea that the other brutes would turn on them. So they weren't expecting their allies to turn on them. It's totally plausible in my eyes.
2:40 You often see Elites outfight Brutes, but you rarely see the reverse and in so one-sided a fashion. The Elites are huge, strong, monstrous, but imagine something to an Elite what an Elite is to a human and you have this.
Is... Is Atriox to the brutes what Master Chief is to humans and what The Arbiter is to the elites?
I get this sense hes just this unstoppable force where god help you if you're up against him
Be neat to have them team up to take down the Flood or something.
And what Stolt is to the Grunts.
Atriox has his brutes, and alone he’s clearly great at CQC. But I reckon Linda-058 could take him out.
3:04 Brute lifts Elite
"I wondered what would break first, your covenant or your body!"
He broke that Elite like Batman.
That old mans speech goes hard... best part is when he hits the button after surveying the room and was like yeee we fighting till the last....
Literal perfection. The peak Halo artstyle and they made the banished so cool. Then infinite makes them Covenant 2, mostly through the music.
No they’re still the banished in halo infinite that has not changed
@@joshuawillis602 lol no
@@lemmy154 yes they are. No amount of denial from you is going to change that
@@joshuawillis602 no they arent, banished from halo infinite are just a reskin from the original covenant lol
only the designs from halo wars 2 look like a different style
@@lemmy154 no they aren’t. You literally have nothing that backs up that claim
I really like the concept of the Brutes as a species. Gigantic hypercarnivore bear-sized apes from a Super-Earth. They're a race intelligent enough to have at one point achieved a spacefaring civilisation, but also savage enough to have blown up their development to a pre-industrial age. Almost as if their very nature is a hindrance to their potential progress.
Well said
Atriox is so much more intimidating than The Didact.
Didact vs Atriox
I reckon atriox would beat the didact tbh
thats because Atriox actually had a build-up and a proper introduction of his battle skill. All we ever saw from the didact his him doing politics and then he kinda slings chief around a bit. 343 really did the didact dirty in Halo 4, he's genetically enhanced far beyond spartan IIs, he's absolutely ancient for pretty much any other species standard and he's got tech on his side that neither the Covenant, Banished or UNSC really fully understands. By all accounts the Didact should be able to whipe the floor with Atriox and anyone else, really, but nah, we kill him in a shitty quick time event.
@@blessedxxiii5583 well no but that’s just because the didact has god like technology
@@blessedxxiii5583 eh?
Not my Didact.
My Didact wasn't Lord Voldemort mixed with Laurence Barnes from Crysis 2.
Bungie-lore Didact did not hate humanity, he was amazed to find them on Earth outside the Maginot Line. He left everything to them. He was a brilliant strategist, developed Mendicant Bias and Offensive Bias, convinced the Forerunners to uphold the Mantle to prove to the Precursors their trust was not misplaced, and wavered only once at the end when he found out his wife was about to die. She convinced him to uphold the Mantle. She destroyed the Key Ships. He activated Installation 04. So ended the Great Journey.
Oh man Atriox is a massive threat. We haven't had a villain in Halo this badass and imposing since The Didact.
Storm Bringer777 Lol didact wasn't even badass but atriox is
Master Painter The Didact was extremely badass. He made Master Chief his bitch, took control of the Covenant and his Promethean army and damn near destroyed earth with his Composer.
Wasn't strength that accomplished that he had power he was a "Being" not a like atriox who became a badass
The DIdact became a badass as well. He did that by becoming a hardened warrior by fighting humanity and the flood for years.
Okay well the point I'm trying to make is Atriox is far more harass can we agree on that ? Lol
When the brutes killed the elites like that. My jaw dropped of how fast they killed them all that fast. Atriox is a force to be reckoned with.
so atriox is like the orginal legend 27
SMOKIN JOE 123 TheBrute47
Who is theBrute47
Yes
I keep trying to play halo but this one guy called thebrute27 keeps kicking my ass.
Oh no, he actually works for atriox,
*don't ask me how*
I think part of what makes him so scary is that hes smart unlike most of the brutes. That and hes a frontline soldier so hes not an inexperienced armchair commander
well on thing is for sure the Spirit of Fire crew And its Vehicles air and ground may be old but they STILL GOT TEETH!
SM Prime 15 old girl still got a Little fight in her
Yeah... specially them grizzlies
They cuz they have vultures and hornets are op. Done deal
No one talks so much about this, but stopping the energy sword as the Elite thrust it toward Atriox is such an insane feat of control and skill; look at the space between the hand of the Elite and the blade, it's like 2-3 inches.
Atriox moves his hand into that place WHILE it moves at killing speed, with the blade searing into his knuckles still, because his hand is wider than the space will allow, and has the strength necessary to stop the Sangheili in it's tracks.
Absolutely unbelievable.
And he's got the crazy pain tolerance to just sit their and let plasma burn him without flinching
Until he manhandled master chief like Noone has done before
@@klownking6566 bro Atriox manhandled chief like a regular brute has in the books before it ain't nothing special
@@abearpossessedbyseveralrac7699 never read the books after the flood
@@gabrielrae7647
At that moment, he likely didn't care
Definition of " we all fall eventually but well how you face the fall is what matters"
I don't think atriox COULDNT be killed by the covenant, it was kinda like how the unsc stopped fighting the insurrectionists, the covenant just didnt have forces to spare to effectively deal with him while they were kicking humanity's ass
The UNSC never stopped fightining the insurrectionist. They just focused there attention on the Covenant Empire.
The Innsurection was annoying but the UNSC still had the upper hand while Atriox was like the Comanche and had to be given a wide berth.
Most of the Insurrectionists stopped fighting UNSC when the Covenant War started, knowing that defeating one perceived oppressor isn't worth extinction. After the Covenant War, many are now fighting the UNSC again.
The war against the Insurrectionists never stopped. Hell, some of them allied with Kig-Yar, trading information for Covenant weapons.
It didn't fully stop, but most did as the threat of the Covenant became known. Those that didn't were often wiped out early in the war when the Covenant destroyed mush of the Outer Colonies.
2:26 to 2:30 anybody else imagine that elite shitting himself at the realization he was the one who was actually gonna die?
And the elites in the background watching as their leader dies to atriox like"what do we do"
Atriox even beats Chief's ass in Infinite. That's enough to tell how dangerous the Brutes are.
Chief can beat normal Brutes but Atriox is built different. He was forged through countless battles to become a monster above his own race, basically what Cheif is to Humanity, Atriox is to Brutes
Atriox snuck up behind Chief and landed the first blow (which tends to decide the victor right there and then). Plus that first blow was with his crazy energy mace. Chief struck back with mere fists while he in return was struck a punch and one or two more times from the mace. Either give Chief a melee energy weapon of his own or take away Atriox's mace for a fist fight, and make Chief fully aware of Atriox's presence beforehand. That would properly dictate who is the better fighter
Yeah cheif has already been beaten by many elites even as low as majors
@@jaredevans8263 either way atriox would wipe the floor in close combat
@@ReiseLukas a no name brute guy almost crushed chief necks so I wouldn't say atriox is the only one who could
The covenant never came close to killing him they say but I recall them almost activating the fire sequence of the halo rings is atriox immune to a weapon that wiped out all life in the known universe I think not
Yes, it's madness to say he was as powerful as them, the Covenant only seem to be getting made weaker and weaker with each new game, Humanity basically survived because of a serious of amazingly fortuitous events.
Lucas winters I think they mean combat wise.
Also the Covenant were busy trying to kill humanity so they did not have the resources to destroy him, most likely. Also he was likely running a sorta guerrilla campaign making him even harder to pin down and destroy.
Jaron Ehlers I don't see this as the covenant being weak, it just shows the strength of Attriox, I thought it was a great idea to have a rebel brute, the covenant seriously almost whipped out humanity, but they couldn't fuck with attriox cause he was what they were scared of, a strong free thinking warrior
I think he would survive the blast.
Halo Wars 2, only game to showcase Brutes as more badass than Elites.
No halo wars 1
Halo 2 did as well

Ügiustus Keiserus nah the elites were badass af in halo 2

Everything was badass in Halo 2. But the Brutes did plow through them in the lore and in gameplay
3:34
"The Covenant had two targets in those years. Humanity and Atriox
Flood: "Excuse me?"
Flood was never a target
“So no Isabelle, we won’t be running anywhere today” chills
Puts into perspective how terrifyingly powerful the Jiralhanae are in terms of physical strength. I was kinda speechless when one grabbed a Sangheili by the neck and then proceeded to snap said neck with *one* hand.
With not much effort either.
Imagine these guys when they’re under an adrenaline rush. They could most likely rip apart steel with their bare hands
Imagine what they can do to an adult human head.
The enemy of my enemy, isn't allways my friend.
Isabel got roasted at the end
Here after how many years... But is no one gonna mention Decimus savagely killed 3 elites effortlessly, whilst showing his allegiance to their leader.
Powerful. Legendary. Banished
I still love this detail at 2:24, when he catches the blade his burning his hand and is completely unbothered by it
That’s the power of “nothing left to lose”
Atriox has to be the main villain of Halo 6
Seth Anderson I don't think he is as bad as the forerunners and the ancients
I think cortona has a link to atriox and they will team up
kyron pugh no they wont
No he can't. It has to be The Didact when he returns. Have Atriox be the first villain then The Didact. Like how Truth was the first villain in Halo 3 then Gravemind was the second.
Storm Bringer777 the didact is dead
343 saw this and said "let's not add any of this in infinite"
I'm confused, you wanted them to add this backstory again? It's not necessary for the story of Infinite, and their history can already be surmised with just infinite's info.
It’s been going pretty rough for me lately and I don’t have a lot of people in my circle so not a lot of motivation 4:00 to 5:30 just sends chills and makes me want to keep fighting and moving threw these times we live in.
It all gets better, friend
Hang in there my brother!! The next day could be the best day of your life if you just keep on keeping on!
Cutter and the whole tripulation be proud, brother
Someone call Thel, he will straighten this boyo out.
Thel will probably get rekt
Nah Atriox would smash Thel. Even the Chief in a blind 1v1. Atriox toyed with 3 Spartan II's, he's on a whole other level.
I would love to call Xytan and have a try against Atriox, but this boi here is dead(or is it?)
Dino Mulalic arbiter would kill this brute but not with ease though he is way more agile than atriox he can just keep jabbing and hitting him and once the right time he will make one final blow and take him out. I mean thel was such a high rank than atriox in the covenant I think thel would have some ideas. he did not die to the flood he was not even scared of the grave mind he basically defied suicidal missions he did not have much of a problem with the covenant he led a whole army aka swords of Sangheillos he had no problems with unsc Because he basically caused so many human colonized planets to be glassed you think Spartans would stop this right but no it was a failure oni tried to assassinate Thel you guessed it failed if thel could do all this I’m sure he would not have a problem with a smart brute with armor magnet tech. basically just outrun him and strike. the reason spirit of fires spartan team could not kill him is because he was hiding if they knew he was there and Better upgraded armor a good ol pop to the head multiple times should do the trick I mean I know tartus is dumb but he had a magnet hammer to. too bad he did not have a good brain and don’t say he won because of the other people that helped him on legendary the elites almost die instantly and Johnson wasn’t much help either plus arbiter had a not too good armor set if he had technology like atriox did then it would be safe for me to say arbiter would kill him with Ease. This I just my opinion so we don’t even know if it will happen but to sum it up I think thel would play his cards better.
@@yaz2928 Atriox took those Spartans by surprise, in the dark, in unfamiliar territory. In open combat, they would probably be a match for him. Also, those Spartans didn’t have the Mark VI armor that Master Chief has, with the shields.
Am I the only one who feels a great sense of pride in watching this? Like yeah, I've been a fan of this fucking franchise for over 15 years and this is how crazy deep, powerful and insane it's gotten!
I wana show my dad this, he loves movies and stories but he might look at me weird for showing him this lol but we’re native so he might like the fact that atriox has a clan, we’re buffalo clan
Your comments sounds like Truth to me. Already given a 👍 your Comments, Spartan.
Halo wars 2 such good game
Thank the rings bring the old halo back and let the great journey start
uhhh no...
WOAH, A NEW HALO GAME CALLED THE MASTER GRIEF COLLECTION! .0.
Where can I get it?
The Master Grief Collection Its better than Halo 5s story
Indeed, salvation for all!
I know this is a video for the origin of Atriox, but, Cpt Cutter's speech was probably the most badass thing about this video.
Atriox = the guy everybody likes
Decimus = best friend of the guy that everybody likes
Shipmaster = second best friend of the guy that everybody likes
Colony = the guy that secretly rivals with the guy that everybody likes

Just so you know, the Banished will return in Halo Infinite. This means you’ll get to fight the Banished in a first person shooter game. Also, when Halo Infinite is released, you can add the new Banished characters of Halo Infinite to the list.

I like the implication that the Covenant would put Atriox' fellow Brutes in charge of their army while fighting off the biggest rebellion in their history, which was lead by Brutes.
I think that might have been what planted the idea in the Prophet's minds. There's undeniable proof that the Brutes are perfectly able to rise up against the Elites and win if the need arises.
@@tTaseric okay, that DOES make a lot of sense!
there's something so poetic about one brute clan leader pissed that his people have been used as fodder and now has a chip on his shoulder, it's simple but makes sense
I really want Atriox and the Arbiter to meet. They both left the covenant for different reasons, but they both had some similarities in what drove them to leave.
Arbiter was banished himself. Imagine if he joined the banished after that bruh there would be no competition
I feel like the arbiter would fight atriox immediately considering (I think) his hatred for the brutes while atriox would try and talk first then fight
@@bronzybronze5101 arbiter ain't like that
Halo wars built up these characters
I feel like this is gonna be one of the most epic halo campaigns we’ve ever seen
Jerome MasterCheif and atriox are all gonna come together in infinite. I can just see it
My friend, how wrong you were.
I don't understand why Atriox fights the UNSC. You'd think he'd ally with the humans against their common enemy
William Kim good point
William Kim The UNSC/ONI did/does a lot of Atrocities to Covenant and Humans alike. He may accept the outer colonies who are basically in situations like he was, but never inner colonies especially ONI.
Well the humans aren't fighting the covenant that much anymore, I'm pretty sure the humans want peace and atriox wants the total annihilation of them
InterstellarGaming No, many humans want the annihilation of the covenant species as well like ONI. The UNSC wasn't kind to the covenant or to it own people. Atriox have better chance to let outer colonies join his cause.
Atriox actually offered Cutter a chance to leave peacefully but Cutter refused.
i cant believe that in 2021 we get Atriox as a villain in a mainline Halo game
Atriox is awesome..but are we just gonna ignore that one Elite almost got stomped by the Scarab XD
“Atriox was my *finest recruit* “
BAAAARE your fangs
@@abeidiot no I mean it doesn’t make sense how he was Escharum’s “finest recruit”. This cutscene clearly shows Atriox IS the Banished, he started it..
@@warthogvanguard7292 Escharum was his mentor when he was young.
Easily my favourite cutscene in halo wars 2, and one of the best speeches in all of halo, well done, 343
God I love the banished so much, they’re so badass as have a lot of potential
Atriox is without a doubt the greatest villain in Halo his backstory is great his drive & motivation make him dangerous but unlike Jul 'Mdama he's not a just dreamer he knows what he wants & will do anything for it. But what makes him truly terrifying & formidable isn't just his strength it's also his intelligence. While the UNSC & the Covenant were tearing each other apart he watched from the shadows building his strength preparing his Banished unlike the Storm Covenant who pretty just announced themselves & their presents like 'Here we are come kill us'. More proof of his intelligence he waited until the UNSC & the Swords were reeling from Cortana before striking when everything was in disarray.
And he was smart enough to order his men not to go inside the crashed covenant capital (but far more impressive is he successfully stopped a second flood outbreak, something the Forerunners couldn’t do lol)
Honestly the scariest thing about Atriox is his intelligence. The Brutes were fierce and strong but dumb. Dull. That’s why the elite could so easily wipe them out in Halo 3, but Atriox isn’t. He’s strategic, tactical, and uses his intelligence in a way other Brutes just can’t
So was Castor.
5:05 Looking at you Del Rio
Del Rio is a massive pussy
Del Rio is a big fat wuss.
@@maxwellthrun5426 thats a Naval officer for ya.
Del Rio was once join rebellion against ONI will be either Jail or execution. That ONI choice in Halo Timeline..
The cutscenes look so realistic 😱
Halo 6 better include this guy in some way
i kinda feel bad when atriox absolutely wrecks the elites. they kinda look like pets to be fair
back after halo infinite. and this cutscene is so groundbreaking for the whole halo story in retrospect now. ahhhh
Who is here after the infinite teaser!?!
Hi
Me. I want to find out about the banished and Atriox
+1
Atriox certainly has a powerful cult of personality to still have the Banished fighting back even 3 years into the Created's galactic takeover.
✋
Captain Cutter is a badass
Still better than Del Rio
Am I the only person here who thinks maybe a little of John Forge rubbed off on the crew of the _Spirit of Fire?_ His last acts probably set an example for the entire crew. To always stare death in the face, and never to blink...until you've knifed it in the jaw and killed it with its own sword.
Orhrah!!!!
I would love to have served under captain cutter any day he makes all of his crew family
It’s scary to think that if Atriox had been put in charge of the covenant, humanity would have probably lost, even with Chief
"The whole damn Covenant couldn't contain him at the height of their power." That's so unbelievably stupid. The Banished could have gotten absolutely steamrolled by the Covenant- the Covenant literally just didn't care and had bigger problems lol
At this point the great schism happened, with the flood, separatists and humans against the covenant so they couldn’t hope to stop atriox even if they tried
@@WitcherGerd The Banished formed 4 years before the Great Schism
Notice that he looks at Jerome-092 when he says 'a thousand heroes who swore to fight their way through hell and back before they'd ever turn their backs and run'. A testament to just how heroic and brave the Spartans have always been seen as. Even the washout/reaugmented Spartans many considered 'weaker' than their initially successful brothers and sisters.
Two years since this game was made, and Atriox is STILL an absolute Bad-ass.
Would have been good to see the Arbiter and his fleet take him on when the Arbiter(Thel) was still the supreme commander. According to ONI, Thel would have extincted humanity given his superior strategy and prowess. Seeing as Atriox appears to have a similar intelligence to the Arbiter, I think it woulda been legendary.
It would be on the same level of epicness as Ceasar vs Spartacus!
Interestingly enough the battle that finally broke Atriox was the battle of Algolis which had a lot of covenant and unsc sustained a lot of casualties but the humans where able to initiate Cole protocol and evacuate when the prototype suit for hrunting/yggdrasil self destruct which had a nuke built into which was also was piloted by the time by sgt Ghost who was often referred to as a ghost because he barely felt a thing like emotions.
A lot of game sequels/spin-offs really struggle with making a villain that can live up to the original. However, they didn’t just hit the mark with Atriox, they nailed it. His story is compelling and believable, as he has real motivations and experiences that shape his decisions. I really hope we see him again.
The brutes were always frightening to me. They were pure strength that as you could see here was almost unstoppable
Say what you want about 343 but Atriox and his banished are the best thing that has come from 343 .
Facts bro
i respect 343 now💯
The ones who really created Atriox were Creative Assembly the ones who the game was outsourced to.
Who else got chills every time they hear Atriox's origin? That's how you explain a threat!
Who wants to see a Halo-predator crossover? Yautja hunting party crashes on an unknown land after the flood make their way onto their ship while hunting on a previous planet.
most underrated villain
Ngl ‘Atriox’ sounds like a name I would come up with for *the most awesomest* alien at age 7
They need to make this game where atrioxs lives and that's who chief fights in halo six
Spoiler Alert
Atriox doesn't die in Halo Wars 2. I'm not sure where Halo Wars 2 is on the timeline (My guess is after Halo 3), but it is possible that he may encounter the chief.
I figure that but it would be cool to see him fight chief
Xiansia Itashimono halo wars 2 takes place a little after halo 5
Its that far ahead? o.o
+Xiansia Itashimono Watch after credits its during Halo 5 I think Atriox will join the calvary to stop Cortana
this cutscene gives me chills. I love Atriox / Banished so much.
I like at the end when he says "we swore a duty to drop into hell before we ever turn our backs and run"
I bet the only reason she's alive, is because atriox probably told his story to her.
To rub in the feeling of, "no one can do anything to stop me and here's why"
