I like the Ork Warboss who travelled back in time and killed his past self so he could have 2 of his favorite gun.
Daemon Killa. The ork who basically found heaven. Him and his boys get to fight everyday. Only to die and be respawned the next day to do it all over again. Truly the orkiest fate.
Khornes favorite little boy
Big Brain Ork Move
'Ol Grigutz? He'z a rite propa Ork, 'dat wun.
Gutsmek is my personal favourite. Dude took down a titan (presumably a Warlord) by just crashing his bike onto the cockpit.
My favourite fact i heard was that when orks travel through the warp, they open the windows so demons can come in and get krumpd
Unlioke da humies, da boyz dun’t need no gella feeld
Orks travelling through the warp: Roll down the windows, Boyz! We got demons to krump!
Demons: Turn off the lights and pretend nobody's home.
Most Races warp travel. Try to sneak their way through the room. Orks is a large fat man screaming and spiriting through the room.
@@shockeye3863funny thing is demons are less likely to attack work ships than other races
Nobody to corrupt, no tasty souls to feast on since they go straight to gork and mork and you get kicked back to the warp since the orks gang rush you the second you arrive
"In-Flight-Entertainment"
Orks being horrifying monsters yet still being the greatest source of comic relief in the setting just makes them so endearing.
One of the best things about Orks is that they teach people to talk with a proper british vocabulary
they also show the benefits of how well British dental care can be applied
@@sovietunion7643 Oh, DAAAAMN!!!

Proper blokes 😂
They also have better oral hygiene
Orks are just the faction that everyone likes. I’ve never met a war hammer fan who did not like Orks, they are so dumb but so fun they represent warhammer better then any other faction
I've known someone who didn't like orks. They were also a person who was almost solely into space marines of both imperium and chaos varieties and would shittalk every other faction but get mad if you joked about looting their factions models as orks.
I don't know much about 40k but my friend said he would call those space marine dick riders, because he said space marines are cool ,but if that is the only thing you like and get heated when you talk about how much they suck then you're a weird person.
Imo the true good guys in this universe .
You cant be bad about a bunch o' boiz living for their deep passion towards WAAAARGH !!! Very relatable .
I’d say space marines represent Warhammer better, but that’s just based on what GW is doing
Orks may not always win, but they always have a good time.
Dey alwayz win! If dey'z win - den dey'z win! If dey don't - dey get ta come back an' fight some moar, WHICH IZ A WIN YA GIT! WAAAAGH!!!
The funny thing about orks is that they can basically do absolutely anything and it still would make sense lore wise.
Like orks can be pirates with peg legs, eye patches and squig parrots, they can be samurais devoted to the way of DA CHOOPA, they can be cowboy/knight errant fighting crime, becouse in wh40k there is lots of that and that means more fights, and it still make sense. And ork racers want to be the fastest there is, a grot master fighter pilot.
Orks is faction of pure imagination :D
they fight crime? wtf XD
Der is no loife oi kno to compae wit puur emagenation, livin der, yool be free ef yool trooly wesh to be
You could literally have all of those in the same army and no one would say anything
@@larrytherustyboii7442 _Points in the general direction of the Deathskulls, an entire ork clan devouted to stealing everybody else's shit and being the luckiest's zoggers this side of the Warp_ Yeah, I can totally see an Ork being a 'crime fighter'... who really, really has it in for Deathskull Orks.
*HOLY SHIT* That just made me have a revelation.
The Orks are *THE* most modifiable faction in 40k, The limits of what you can do is only your imagination.
And what makes Ork tech work? The latent Psionic energy brought on by their belief it will work, *Their imagination!*
The Orks are like the people who play them, They can do what they want, And it'll work. The Ork's stuff will work because they believe it will, And The players are lore accurate because there are so many of them, And they're doing all manner of wacky shit, Whatever you do can make sense that the Orks would do it if you can come up with a half decent explanation. And when in doubt, You can always say that the Orks think that _____ makes them kill better.
I always thought Orks were just the comic relief of 40k... then I heard Baldermort's lore video on them. How big they can get when the war gets serious enough. How advanced their tech. How the Eldar have been careful to prune them, and how the Orks haven't really minded because they've been under no threat. And now the Necrons are back and the Tyranids are incoming. My blood actually ran cold. And now, I have honest-to-Gork RESPECT for the Orks, because Mork-damn...
honestly i would love if 40k had more comedic relief moments like the orks. warhammer fantasy was sort of a more silly setting at times (even vermintide, the game literally set during the end times, has the funniest interactions between characters and species ever). 40k really lacks this and i think it takes away. part of why warhammer fantasy felt so grim was that despite the sometimes silly moments it really contrasted with moments of everything going to hell. 40k sometimes has a feel of all gloom and doom and that just doesn't do it for me as well.
One recurring trend with Orks that I think is really funny is how people will repeatedly underestimate the Orks by thinking they're just animals basically before getting completely blindsided by them using actual 200 IQ plays.
What's funnier also is a lot of the time these 200 IQ plays happen usually out of sheer coincidence and on-the-fly rather than any concerted effort of strategizing on the Orks' part.
Ork boy: WELZ WEZ ALREADY KRUMPED THIS FANK LOIKE FOIVE TIMES, LEZGO TO TIS OTTAH FLANK.
@giraffedragon6110 OY BOZZ WHA WILL BE DO WHEN THAT FANK GET KRUMP TOO ?
@@Deliverygrot EZ EZAY YA GIT! YA GO KRUMP DA NEX FLANK!! WOT? YA GON AS ONATHA DUM QUESTON YA GITZ?
I remember letting my buddy/GM play an ork in the rogue trader game i was running. By the end of it, he had become Warboss Zekk Kragg, Bonker of Battle Sisters. He had like 15 names but none of them were as amazing as knocking a SoB out with a log and living to tell the tale.
One of the main things I love about orks is that they're actually a pretty good barometer to how seriously GW intends people to take the setting. I'll point to an example with Guilliman. Sure he's especially broody these days (see the 10e trailer for an example) and he's a badass and capable leader, but he exists in the same universe as the orks, so he's also kind of a goober. I'm not saying that 40K is a setting where nothing is to be taken seriously, but it's a setting where seriosness itself is always at least a little tongue-in-cheek. *EVERYTHING* is dialed up so far past 11 that it's absurd, and the campy absurdity is the point. Guilliman's self-seriousness is kind of a joke. The Imperium's over-the-top evil being the only hope for human survival is just silly as a concept. The drukari's sadism is wildly cartoonish. All the tropes are played so hard that there's nothing even vaguely realistic about the 40K setting, and it's all said with the comically stoic straight face and a quinesentially British "stiff upper lip"... except the orks. The orks clue in the people that are sarcasm-blind that everything here is satirical on some level. Because orks are obviously silly and riiculous, and they fit right in with everything else that's often so comedically serious.
I wonder if GW actually recognize that. 40k is meant to be a ridiculous, insane grotesque of a story. I really do wonder if they themselves get that memo? Like all you said is correct but I am genuinely not convinced that the people who recognize this aren't a very stark minority amid the fandom and GW alike.
There’s defnitely some truth to this especially back in the day when 40k first started but I think now it defnitely takes itself a lot more seriously like a proper sci fi franchise and I don’t see why it can’t. It’s over the top of course but it’s a cool setting and too we’ll fleshed out and deep to be satire at this point
Don't the forget other examples, like the Tau's technology advantage but still beign too "naive and innocent" to the point they thought they killed the emperor when it was just a chapter master, and when they thought that Imperial Titans were Imperial propaganda, until they saw for themselves a walking church with guns and reacted with 😮
Even Eldar are sort of funny with how Avatars of Khaine are primarch levels in power, but most of their mentions is about them getting killed by anyone, like in Dawn of War with how their sync kills is about then getting punished for beign too cocky and stylish
They also fit a trope, just a very personal one for the original devs. They're football hooligans; but in space. War is the sport and they're ready to get bloody, cheering the whole time
@@ExValeFori don't think they do. I think, at least for the newer devs, Goofyman was meant to be taken seriously. They actually tried to fix the Ork lore a bit, and they downplay the silly side now
"Yo check out my purple ork army"
U only see empty table
"W w where are they?"
Fun fact, In the old lore it was the snotlings that created the orks.
My ex only ever wanted to eat, sleep, and fight and everything she believed magically became true. Now I understand why, thank you sir.
What I love about the Orks is right when you count them out they always come back. Hell, even with the new arks of omen lore, you see the Orks show up at just the right time to lay down the beating.
They are a nice faction to play as because you can laugh at how hilariously serious everyone else takes things, meanwhile you can just keep sending more bodies - a strategy so basic, that for Orks it flips back around to being smart and strategic. It's beautiful, man.
I love the Orks. They’re a very necessary breath of fun in a setting that takes itself way too seriously most of the time.
I always feel that GW, at the end of WH development, said, "Ok, we need one more faction. All the others were so serious and dark. Maybe something different. Not light, though. Something...really stupid. Space clowns? Space ogres? Maybe a mix? Maybe? Huh?"
Well it actually went the exact opposite way. The orks are like the last relic of the time of warhammer's genesis, when everything was just dumb and comical.
Adding the edge was more or less an afterthough and most likely a product of the 90's boom in grimdark comic books and nu metal. GW is like that one emo kid who never quite grew out of his phase.
I don't know if it is still canon, but there was a group of orks that worshipped the emporer because.... idk maybe an inquisitor thought it would be funny to make an ork group beleive in the emporer or something.
I think that is the orkperium but I also don't know if it is canon. It was cool to read about though.
This is the Orks' world. We just live in it
The Odd Boyz are the living embodiment of "Cometh the hour, cometh the man".
So pleased to see the old fungal gestation picture again. I'm not sure if people don't know about it or they don't think it's important, but I think it's so supremely stupid/amazing that it should be included in every description of the Orks.
Tuska Daemonkilla
*Invading* the Eye of Terror, making a drive-by on Cadia for warm-ups, then finding Ork nirvana on a daemon-world of Khorne, is the most epic thing ever, as well as bringing a tear of joy to my eye.
Orks ONE OF the best things in 40k?
ORKS IS DA BEST. PERIOD.
Orks are so simplified it’s amazing and are hilarious to a degree it feels like trolling akin to Orgyns but less friendly and more organized Gork and Mork are a treat so dysfunctional but the perfect gods for them and Sqiugs and Gretchen are the jelly to the peanut butter
I like orks.
in fact one of the first 40k audiobook I listened to was about margaret thatcher the warboss
Orcs are one of the most fun things about 40k, I never cease finding things to chuckle about.
There's just something comforting about Orks just straight up going through all the 40k galaxy screaming and laughing at the top of their lungs making sure every messed up lovecraftian organism knows they're there and that they're ready to fight.
They just have fun and nothing stops em'
Angron will drown in an angry green tsunami when ghazkull gets his hands on him. Rip yarrick the shootiest shootah, the krumpiest krumpah, ol one eye yarrick the rival of ghaz, maybe the only human to receive genuine respect and compliments from an ork.
*WWWWAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHH*
Thank you all for coming to my Ted Talk. All donations of Teef will go to your local grot abusing boyz house
Please make a 3 hour long ork video, I'd watch the fuck out of that
I love Orks, I wish I had more inspiration to paint mine. Had a kommando kill team base coated and sitting in my pile of shame for a while. All I know if I want them to be old school British punk themed and I'm going to call them "Da Orky Boyz" in reference to Sham 69's Hersham Boys. My favorite thing I've ever heard about orks was in some book, a space marine vessel was pulling up next to an ork rok to start firing and the marines started seeing green dots pop up on the surface of the rok. The orks had come out into the vacuum of space and were jumping off into space to try to get to the marines and start the fight sooner. LMAO
I'm an Ork by heart and my fav warboss is the git who took his warband into the warp to fight the better fight against demons, only for Khorne himself to pick the boss up as his champion and revels in the eternal krumpin with his ladz
Gud ol' Tuska Daemon-Killa. Roight propa Ork 'e iz! Krumpin and gettin Krumped wiv 'iz Boyz!
One of my favorite tidbits of Ork lore is how Grizgutz accidentally traveled back in time in the warp and was ejected to just before his Waagh entered, so he boarded his own ship and killed his past self to have a copy of his favorite gun. That's the orkiest thing I've ever heard.
There's one notable exception where ork gubs actually DO work for non-orks, Legacy of Dorn novel, that I've read recently (the main guy concedes how simple their guns are to strip and clean(10min) vs a bolter (3+ hr with all the machine spirit shenanigans)).
Don't forget the legendary Deff Skwaddron comic, it's awesome stuff, always brings a smile to face :D
@Nix91 And it's indeed the trucks and shootas used in the novel by the crimson fist sgt and his squad alongside a few rynnsguard they saved.
Same goes with Skaven with Fantasy or for others Dwarfs
Everybody that plays 40k loves the orks. They're way past due for some new quality content and lore from GW.
True, true.
got into the lore maybe a year ago, just liked reading the books really. Read a section somewhere about some lamenters trying to escape with some human slaves from an ork planet, they try to hijack an ork ship to escape. None of the ork ships had engines. I love those soggin gits.
Orks are the best, mostly because you are almost ALWAYS competitive and even when you aren't it is just about always in the most hilarious way.
My favorite part of orcs is how their accent, behavior, speech, and society is based on british people
I’ve always loves the idea of White Scar’s purposefully following around Ork clans in order to use the power of the Waaaaah to go faster
From my experience, Orks are most people's introduction to the hobby. Sure they've probably heard of space marines before or seen memes about other factions, but a big factor for someone actually getting interested in 40k is learning about orky shenanigans.
Me, who was introduced by seeing a dude cosplaying a krieger at a renaissance fair.
Yes, I am now building a krieg army, my wallet is in tears
Orks may be hilarious from an outside perspective, but it should always be remembered, the Boyz came closer to destroying the Imperium than the forces of Chaos ever have
my favorite feature of this video is the background music "my heart will stop in joy" which i think really fits them
I honestly love the orks with them really being the ones that make me take a step back and just have a laugh cause of how dumb stuff can be from a funny point instead of a depressing point of view.
I love all the great artwork you dig up for these videos
Orks are like whiped cream: Delicious, but lack substance if you don't put it on something else. Orks need more serious factions to bounce off and their shenanigens is not the material you can build a decade long lore on.
To me, as a greenskins player throughout the warhammer universe the orks, orruks or whatever you call them wherever you find them are simply put THE best thing ever.
Oi lov da Orks, me took sum old Robogear tabletop vehicul and looted it for da kitbashy orky gitz
They starts wars just for a hat.
Getting exposed to 40k lore through tons of grimdark angsty Space Marine and Chaos God infodumps, then discovering Orks right after is the most entertaining juxtaposition ever, takes the piss right out of the whole setting precisely when you're convinced of how mean and serious everything is.
My favorite Ork theory is that the Emperor is only alive on the throne because Orks don't know that he died.
Thank you for taking me on your wild ride
I like how the largest Ork is a mismatch of other Ork’s body parts.
orks are the playdoh of 40k
The orks definitely are a core part of 40k as well. Chaos is the big bad but orls are the classic bad guys and are the premier xenos faction that reprisent xenos and have the most coverage in the lore even if 90% are used as a way to show how terrible the actual villains but its always the orks.
Imma be honest when I first heard about 40k I thought the entire premise was focused around "Space Knights with guns fight Space Orks with guns" and for the longest time that's all I knew about it until when I recently actually started getting into Warhammer and discovered that there's ten billion other factions and stuff
I think what makes orks so funny in 40k is that they are a fantasy faction in a rathe sci fi-styled setting. Orks are the basic danger of fantasy, and are placed perfectly in the galaxy of warhammer. And i think that is why they gave it such a comic relief position.
It is just wonderful
*desperately trying to get my ork skin recipe right for my green tide army* no orks are cringe, don't know nothing 'bout no fungus
40k: when it's comic relief fits "dumbest people are the most violent people" maxim
Orc weapons should just make the Lego sound when a non orc picks their weapons
Orks are the bane of civilisation
It is have been my army of choice since I started playing 40k about 30 years ago. The Waaagh the Orks era Orks were more individualistic than say Space Marines and therefore more fun. You wouldn't see a Goffik Rok band turn up in an Eldar or Smurf army.
The reason Orks look the way they do is because of a British comic character called Fungus the Bogeyman by a chap called Raymond Briggs who died fairly recently. This was then crossed with the personality of an '80's football hooligan and certain Germanic elements.
All in all whether or not Orks are the perfect intro point to 40k depends on the person. If you're a powergamer type like my brother who just liked to win even if you resort to Exterminatus if you lose the battle you're probably too po-faced to fully appreciate Orks. If you enjoy getting together with friends because it's fun irrespective of who wins then Orks are grand.
so essentially people who don't like fun hate orks? makes sense. but why would anyone play 40k tabletop if not for fun?
@@superultrasomethings yes because i value my sanity
If I ended up in warhammer, I would want to be an orc I wouldn't have enough braincells to despair.
Love my orks. Mek boyz are just so damn perfect
I figure Orks are probably the best equipped to fight daemons since daemons' only weakness is belief... hence orks go thru the warp without gellar fields for fun. I also figure the old ones fixed the psykers turn inside out into daemon gates glitch by putting an explode fuse in em if they start to go over.
weak humans going through the warp and losing their sanity versus supreme orks going through the warp and beating the shit out of the eldritch horror that just emerged for fun.
I think every faction other than Votann, humanity, and the Eldar are good against daemons, inherently.
Tau have weaker souls that daemons ignore, giving them time to plan, Necrons have no souls and have devices that make entire star systems warp free, orks you already mentioned, and Tyranids have a latent ability similar to a blank with shadow in the warp, and again, no real soul to steal.
@@norsehorse84 The Tau are about to get owned by Vashtorr corrupting all of their AIs the same as he did to humanity. Agree Necrons and Nids are pretty much Chaos immune but neither do they get stronger by fighting it like Orks. They also don't have absurd faith to hurt it with.
wouldn't demons of nurgle and tzeentch be a good match against the orks? one can mess with them with illusions while the other poisons them and could possibly cause the spores to die as well
@@larrytherustyboii7442 Possibly but Nurgle's three main moves are fear of death, gross-out, and death by a thousand cuts, none of which work on Orks. As to Tzeentch, in my head cannon he's Big E so yeah he can run circles around anybody but Orks are too dumb for complicated schemes so Tzeentch probably only has a few tools to work with and finds them boring.
uuhhh, Arthur. . . I'm high! Keep up the good work man, really enjoy your content!
I miss the old orks when they were not as much of a grim dark joke they had tradesmen traders slavers etc
Orks seem to be a lichen like organism: fungi make up the frame work, animal cells make up the organ systems, and algae power the whole thing
The Orks' entire culture is basically that scene in Hazbin Hotel when Adam pulls out a parchment with "FU I do what I want."
"Unlike plants, fungi are unable to source their energy from the sun via photosynthesis. Instead, most fungi (except for lichens) release enzymes into the environment that digest organic matter and then absorb it"
Mycorrhiza & Myco-heterotrophy are both symbiotic relationships b/t Fungus & Plants, so it's not too far of a stretch that GW is just rolling w/ the idea that the Old Ones being biohackers didn't cook up a spore based lifeform that can leverage both decomposition & photosynthesis.
The few fungus w/ chloroplasts those structures are purple, which explains why some stuff is invisible inside the orc related to nutrition.
Honestly, I like the Orks. After seeing more about them after an initial binge of Ork lore, I was utterly infatuated with them.
There are photosynthetic mushrooms.
ORKZ IZ DA BIGGEST AN' DA BEST!
My wife use to have an ork army. she eventually stopped making them and instead built an ork army for Age of Sigmar. She explained that the orks in 40k are like the butt end of a joke, they're forced humor and the way I see it is they have so many weird and wacky qualities as regualr orks on top of all the characters what are meant to represent real life references such as stealthy spec ops orks, Pirates, and commando Rambo style orks they all lose there charm and personality. When everyone is crazy no one is crazy.
"Hey where all the green women at?"😄
Orks being fungal simbyiotic creatures with chlorophyll would make them very angry lichen.
Hi Arthur!
2:00 That guardsman went on to claim that the orks turned him into a newt, but then he 'got better.'
Dude, I like the way you talk. Could spend hours just listening to you. Just throwing you the occasional bone to start the next tangend and keep you going.
I rarely see Orkz vs Tyrannids in the lore
mmh since i am a mind caged in soulless machine obviously am a Necron guy, but the concept of ''believe'' or rather knowing from Orks might appeal more to another side of myself.
Imma simple git, i seez orkz, iz smash like
I think “an oosie” is my new favorite term for a technological a advawmr, it’s so accurate!
Gork and Mork's silliest boyz
they add refreshing fravor for word for dark and depressing 40k universe
Again, I'm just here for the background music.
Fun Fakt: Da Orkz Alwayz Win, You Alwayz get krumped. - Definatelie not an Ork
Orks #1 best faction.
In the grim darkness of the far future, the orks are the only ones that have fun. I think the best description of orks I ever read stated as such “imagine if the lichen in your garden suddenly grew to be 20 feet tall, turned your washing machine into a huge buzzsaw and tried to murder you”.
I love *LOVE* Orks! I also love this video. Great job!
mushroom hates sun plants loves it good job gw
If they are a fungus then it's a lichen. Symbiosis between fungi and endophytic bacteria.
"f u I do what I want"
that's the type of energy I like
I was thinking I wonder if gork and mork are the 40k standin biblical reference (because 40k is full of them) for Gog and Magog
Never actually noticed this but yeah you might be right.
I mean their warlord during the heresy was literally called "the great beast" so it wouldn't be the first reference to revelations.
@@flatheadgg2443 nice catch, yeah 40k is full of them,
One of the weird ones is the council of nicea in real life and thier unifying doctrine and heresy amongst denominations,
And the similarly named one from 40k which is about banning unsanctioned psykers,
Very telling reference that one,
Been trying to marry the analogy between unsanctioned psykers and unsanctioned preachers? Prophets?
Both deal with the immaterial realm
Food for thought anyway, or is that phrase an analogy for the mana from heaven,
Life is strange
They do technically have the ability to make advancements in their technology, but like everything else that has to do with orks it either happens by accident, or it scales with how many there are in one place, and if they are led by a sufficiently powerful warboss.
This actually makes sense, they are a biological weapon and it makes sense that the Brain Boyz coded some kind of limiting factor into them.
The best way to imagine how Orks see their lives is to think of it as the material universe as a pub crawl. They come into this life knowing everything they need to know. When they die, greenskins return to The Great Green to wait for a grow hole to return to the living world.
I used to think orks were boring models therefore boring in themselves but as the years have gone by they are one of my favourite army’s that I don’t yet collect, I still struggle looking at them just green lumps with battered metal hanging off of them but boy do I love hearing stories about them! I don’t know if I’ll ever collect them but I know they are fun weird and wacky which is brilliant!
orks the comic relief of warhammer universes
I’m currently building an entire mech and drag racer army of Orks. Not for advantage, strength or even the chance to win, but because I want the comic relief of Orks just randomly blowing up on the field. 😆
I think my favorite thing about orks is that they force the otherwise austere and very self serious setting to play along with how god damn goofy they are. A grizzled space marine who has seen countless battles and speaks with the gravitas of one that has starred down death and lived having to say something like “the ork warboss gitkicka deftooth and his army of choppa wielding boogie boyz lay waste to the forge world” will never not give me a good hearty chuckle.
Space sharks. Space sharks. Space sharks. Space sharks.
Please cover space sharks.
I've known about 40k since the early 2000's, bit only recently became interested primarily because of Ork lore
I love orks, I love the melee, I love stuffing 8 burna boyz with two skorcha spannerz in a trukk and just roasting enemies off the board and I love watching my meks gunz either do absolutely nothing the entire game or decide that, that leman russ or drukari raiding barge doesn't need to be there anymore. I also love watching my Goff Smasha Squig delete units with mortal wounds.
