@@Zippism If you think about it, Blizzard can make yet another Gul'dan using time traveling if they feel like it, but why stop there, they can make 20 more Gul'dans
To be fair this Gul'dan was beaten by the legendary heroes who killed the likes of Deathwing...and defeated Illidan among countless other powerful beings. So he was propably to weak to really counter it. Still funny af storytelling. Lmao.
Short reminder: this is alternative Gildan, who did nothing wrong. I mean killing few orcs in WoD(we did much worse), summon some demons and kill one stupid warrior who charge every big robot he see.
It was the most satisfying thing seeing Gul'Dan obliterated like that, I love Varian, flawed as he might have been (not the super perfect savior of Thrall) and teared up at his death, but was also proud with how he went out... ... even though it was a tad short for a fury warrior in full rage mode... one of the greatest fury warriors nonetheless... I also knew (from reading books, and in-game lore) that Anduin was ready to lead, and that with him at the helm piece could have been achieved with relative ease since he already knows Baine, and has a good reputation with the other leaders, even Sylvanas before she went all broken dark mode.
To correct some misinformation Gul'dan we see here is not an original Gul'dan, he was of a different timeline. From which even second Durotan was mentioned. The one who daughter is now a leader of the Mag'har orcs. Original Gul'dan died during tides of darkness, while original Durotan was killed either between Warcraft 1 and Warcraft 2 or either at the start of second Warcraft or at the end of the first one. So in the end there were two Gul'dans, two Durotans and even two Drakas. Also thank Garrosh without whom the Gul'dan from cinematic would not have been created since Garrosh was responsible for creating alternative Dreanor when he went back in time to save his dad from Demons and Fel.
Considering that Illidan's transformation was the result of absorbing the skull of Gul'Dan... I think it's quite safe to assume this wasn't the original Gul'Dan xD.
I haven't read any books. But in WC3 Frozen Throne campaign, we see some of Gul'dan's mamory flashbacks inside Sargeras's Temple playing as Maeve. The story says that Gul'dan went there with his clan, to find Sargeras's dead body wich was supposedly buried beneath the temple, so he can absorb his power. But the temple was guarded by demons... They were ambushed and his whole clan was massacred, while he barely escaped the ambush badly wounded. But later in another flashback, it shows that he wasn't gonna make it after all, as he was gravely wounded. So he spent his last moments there, saying not like this, i can't die like this, damn you Sargeras! And that's propably how he died. Unless if there's more to the story that i don't know about.
Well you know originally there was one good storyline, before they made an mmorpg to grab cash and had to make things up as they go to keep milking expansions and subscription.
Legion was such a great expansion, it was a lot of fanfare for sure but I felt it was done exceptionally well, and despite what the artifact power system became it was a great system empowering our weapons of legend to help us defeat the Legion at... well not quite full power but the closest to full power as we had ever experienced on Azeroth... I do admit it would have been neat to have the legion invasions of Azeroth throughout the Legion xpac mostly for leveling players to be honest, but it would have given levelling players the chance to defend Azeroth from the Legion further immersing the entire world of Azeroth into the expansion... and while I understand it would have been too much for the devs to implement it would have actually been neat to have the legion attacking settlements and setting up outposts and expanding to nearby provinces when the invasions were not taken care of, and when these entrenched area's were defeated even high level gear was rewarded for players at max level to help encourage them to defend Azeroth itself and not just the Broken Isles or our assault on Argus... If Blizzard hadn't been focusing so much on their other projects we could have been having some really amazing content in this game.
ah yes, I remember doing nighthold blind. not watching any cutscenes from data-mining or YT channels before hand. I turned my chair over when Illidan popped up, and I shrieked with excitement when he told us to follow him into the abyss
Legion truly had the right to join the ranks of Vanilla, TBC, and WotLK expansion as the greatest of all time. Catacylsm was an alright runner up, and everything else is just BOOOOO
@@mazulon I liked a lot of things about WoD. I liked that we got to see pre-destruction Draenor. I liked the Breakers vs Botani stuff (and I speculated that the Botani maybe had some old god links - vines and tentacles are kinda similar, after all). I liked base-building, though I recognize that that probably wasn't too alt-friendly. Story-wise, I liked that this was a Horde that had rejected demonic powers and were still a force to be reckoned with... and then in the final chapter they go "Just kidding, they went for the demons anyway."
Yeah, no. Legion and mists. Vanilla is out, no blood elves means trash. Everything before xmog is totally out, and it wasn't until mists I could keep my greatsword of the Sin'dorei permanently. Also, mists had fantastic raids, and really other than the timeless isle was a great xpac. Mists hate and vanilla love are hallmarks of idiocy.

yep in the burning crusade cinematic it's the one he picked up in warcraft 3, the one that turned him into his half-demon form, and one we can loot from him as a trinket this one have him a power boost, he had enough juice after that to kill the head naaru that tried to ''purify'' him
Arthas shouldnt have been killed permanently. He made the ultimate sacrifice that no one would have taken. Not even the greatest of them all would have done what he did. He became the Lich King to keep Ner'Zhul in check. As Uther said it, it was because of Arthas that the Scourge didn't go ravaging the world unchecked and unchallenged...killing all life in Azeroth. So think about that before declaring Arthas as a true villian. He just did what no one else was willing to do or had the heart to do.
This is alt timeline guldan being thrown into main timeline. The original one did die a long time ago Illidan was not happy that the effect from the second skull does not stack with the first one
He never came back though. This is an alternate Gul’Dan from an alternate Draenor where Garrosh convinced his father to not do the thing he did. (Imma be real, my Warcraft lore knowledge is pretty much just a handful of WoW lore and not much else.)
Illidan would have loved working with the big hero from my story. The guy travels between universes to help around. Had Illidan joined him, he could kill hundreds of Guldan versions and take their powers.
yes, the demon hunter opening sequence tells part of the story, the demon hunter legion questline leads up to this, names ''the search for the master''
yeah what the hell is going on??? BFA suckasss animation, did dragonflight even have one? War Within garbage shit... they literally still showing clips from vanilla wow's cinematic on main expansions they're so fucking cooked.
actually his the original one popped up in warcraft 3, we then have a chance to loot that same one off illidan in the black temple this is an alternate skull of gul'dan
@@knuckles543 interesting, because if both the artifact and this version are both genuinely Gul’Dan’s skull, then why doesn’t this one bestow any additional demonic powers on Illidan
What makes this even great to me, is that (SPOILERS!) in WC3, Ilidan gained his horse and wings by absorbing the power form the skull of Guldan. And now here, he is just crushing it like it's nothing. I think this moment as it signifies that Guldan who sought out power, even going so far as to sell out his own race for it, is now so much weaker than Ilidan, that it's not even worth a moment to think on it and instead just crushes it.

Illidan gave Gul'dan a taste of the treatment Gul'dan gave to Varian. Love it.
The difference is that Varian’s spirit didn’t break in the end while Gul’dan’s did.
Illidan is farming Skulls of Gul'dan at this point.
probably destroyed the second one because effect does not stack
Draw three cards and reduce it's costs by 2.
