Assault on Angrathar the Wrathgate of Icecrown

[Crazelmaxthelock1337]

oh shittt... goosebumps

[NraVadumee]

lol, I like how he suddenly loses his epic echo at 2:30.

(Epic) There is nothis you can-

(Normal) What?

It's like he was trying to build it up but then he was interuppted.

[Eudae55]

lord of the rings much?

[monkeythelamar]

lol 2:10

"OOOOHHHH"

[jmc59462]

and now bolvar is the new lich king

[mariusel99]

but if the forsaken ar sylavans's i dont get it tha undead are in the horde why are they atacking theyre allies (orcs) ??

[Cordar]

Those Forsaken shown who attacked the Alliance and the Horde here are a rebel faction whom sided with Varimathras and the Burning legion and chased the Forsaken loyalist faction led by Sylvanas out of the Undercity.

[mariusel99]

@Cordar oh so that's it ! ty xD

[sirroger11]

@mariusel99 i don't know bout WoW lore but i know bout warcraft 3 let me make it clear to u sylvanas used to be an elf when arthas before he was the lich king attacked the high elves arthas managed to kill sylvanas and turn him into an undead banshee but later she betrayed arthas shot him with an arrow that will make a slow death but due to ner'zhul he survived than sylvanas teamed up with dreadlords wanting to kill arthas but the dreadlords think his heart is still pure she is now with banshees

[NeoDragonCount]

@mariusel99 Those Forsaken were traitors who allied with the demon Varimathras and the Burning Legion. Sylvanas had nothing to do with that incursion against the Alliance and Horde.

[EdgeHeadFUHaters]

still waiting for Icecrown Cidatel to be release XP, just read the article how the raid layout would be, it sounds pimpin.

[hetgebruindepaard]

i Love how horde starts to party when they are about to fight,

[hidralisk95]

burn this mask bitch!allaiance<3

[locar11]

FORSAKEN-lead by SYLVANAS

[gamerchris13]

LOL Arthas is like Whaaat

[BartZxD]

Ok, so let me get this straight.Thrall and [Name of the king of the Humans] were both killed by a random dude who split from the Forsaken and formed his own sidefraction of the Forsaken.

Two of the key figures in the Warcraft storyline were killed by a random Forsaken, who has almost nothing to do in the Warcraft storystructure.

Yeah...that makes sense.Way to go Blizz!

[tjtuck27]

That wasn't Thrall or King Varian

[BartZxD]

I reccomend telling that to someone who gives a crap, forsaken sucks, so shut up.

[lastxwriter]

Well... that could have gone a lot better. Damn.

[fergus247]

The avarage horde og alliance dont know the foreign languages. But commanders have to know it, for times like these.

[killerlukeWoW]

I thought syvanas was a woman..Why is he a man?

[madscorch]

Sylvanas is a woman

[shlazaor]

That isn't Sylvanas.

[madscorch]

true

[fablepro12]

he was referring to slyvanas. that group used to be under her control, but the broke off from the horde. and since they hate everyone except themselves, they wanted to come for a quick kill.

[Captainjohntaylor]

Does anyone know who voices Putress? cuz he''s got a wicked voice!

[Pianoplayer002]

sounds like the same guy who did Nalorakk lol, whoever that was

[Renedar802]

When Bolvar said "you will pay for all the lives you've stolen traitor!" he is talking to Ner'Zhul then

[drummerxp]

err no, hes talking to arthas, ner'zhul never was Bolvars ally so he cant be a traitor. and yes i know ner'zhul was the original lich king.

[darkdude103]

he was the priginal lich to lichking becuse when arthas killed his father he became king and then he became the lichking

[Sadamusem]

FOR THE FORSAKENNNNNNNNNN

[Reranub]

0:42

What the--? A dwarf!

[madscorch]

i believe "the Royal Apothecary" is "a part of the forsaken ". And yes King Varian is an ass.

[Captainjohntaylor]

well would u like to wage war against the people that imprisoned you and made you a gladiator for their amusement???

[EvilCleric]

I'm not sure many people think about it this way, but I think in the inevitable counter with Arthas, there's only one think that should be done with Frostmourne. I personally think it should NOT be loot at all. I think Frostmourne in game needs to b shattered beyond repair. Especially considering it's tendency to suck out peoples souls. No purging it, no lame attempts to redeem it and some how make it usable. Just break the damn thing.

[madscorch]

a part of the forsaken betrayed sylvannas and the horde. There is a quest chain where you go with thrall and sylvanas to retake the undercity. And the dragons came to burn the bodies so they don't turn in scourge.

[monkeyonWoW]

dude i dont think undead is with the horde the undead betrayed the horde!!!

[theedeathknight201]

The Forsaken betrayed everyone including the horde and the alliance! sylvannis planned this out. it was all a setup damn the forsaken!

[EvilCleric]

The Forsaken did not betray the horde. It was a Forsaken sub faction known as the Royal Apothecary. Putress and Varimathras initiated a take over of the Undercity. What I hate is King Varian, when in a position to improve Horde and Alliance relations immediately setout out to reclaim Undercity and consequently the rest of Lordaeron for the Alliance. Then when he here's Thrall there, he attempts to kill him. Jaina stops them but the King declares war. What. an. ass.

[grimreaper123457]

u gotta see where hes comin from

he was captured and thrown into a pit for some random peoples amusement

id be pissed too

[EvilCleric]

Pissed or not, pulling your people into a bloody war simply on the fact you're angry with the other side is a horrible and incredibly stupid thing to do.

[grimreaper123457]

well thats the definition of war i guess

[Dimeinurear]

Well, so was Thrall. Thrall comes from the exact same place, he was found by Blackmoore and raised to be a perfect weapon, the intelligence and cunning of a human, with the brutal savagery of an Orc. Thrall escapes from Durnholde keep, seeks training from Drek'Thar, events of the Third War lead Thrall to be Warchief, blah blah blah, you get the idea.

[Dimeinurear]

Forgot to mention that Thrall was held against his will and forced to fight as an arena combatant.

[grimreaper123457]

but it was all in the idea of him becoming a great leader/weapon

for all varian knew he was gonna keep fighting and fighting until either they got bored or he died

[2xMcLovin]

little bit of a spoiler ........ that forsaken dude is wearing what is going to be warlock tier 8

[masterjp93]

the forsaken are themselves, they hate everyone, pretty cold but their skeletons ya kno lol. and the scourge is with arthus. the dragons idk, i think there just like random.

[EvilCleric]

God, it's the Royal Apothecary, not the Forsaken! They took over Undercity. Then King Varian shows the world just what a dick he can be.

[Jawohl721]

They had to have Saurfang's son do the cleaving here, if it was the true blue Saurfang, thered be no "Wrath" of the Lich King, because Saurfang would cleave Arthas so hard Icecrown itself would probably explode.

On a side note, the Horde have the greatest war crys ever "Blood and Glory await us" almost like green spartans roflmao

[Jawohl721]

The seperate dragonflights have their own agendas, the horde and alliance partake in short truces in attempt to battle the burning legion/scourge (in this case he scourge with arthas) The Forsaken attacked with Putress since he turned and betrayed Sylvanas and the rest of Undercity

[masterjp93]

dude the horde and lly united to attack arthas, those are the forsaken that shoot the new plage and kill the 2 heroes. then the dragons are apart of the union. duh.

[megas33]

low sound

[ThaAlkaholik13]

3 great lads in this video. You gotta love Putress' cackle, it'd personally scare the crap out of me more than Arthas' gay gibberish ever would. Bolvar rocked socks since 2004 and Saurfan (The Younger) did have some guts! He did have some damn guts.

[Sylvesterin]

Thats how it goes if you wanna fight the Lich King in lvl 60 Holy pala PvP set. Atleast Saurfang knew what he was doing with his Arcanite Reaper

[Argonath88t]

at least saurfang went down fighting .. :)

[Lukeclooney]

thats soooo true

[endbutterfly]

We'll miss you, Bolvar. =/

[Captainjohntaylor]

Bolvar what a legend, Putress, gah am so gonna kill him, only merit for him is, what a voice actor! :P

[xD3mon1cx]

this is more proof of what the horde and alliance can acomplish together...except for that moster ass kicking they got lol

[boarwood]

Grand Apothecary Putress's ideals are pretty awesome... "death to all living or otherwise"...

[GamerDude200]

Lol,Putress was like 500 feet above them on a cliff,and yet he doesn't have to yell or anything.They can just hear him.

[BALTHORTEHSTOUT]

Time to answer this with the generic fantasy world answer... He used magic. That is how you could hear him... It was just magic, don't question it. If you question it, it ruins everything.

[kratogator]

with videos like this I always wonder why alliance and horde are suddenly able to understand each others languages

[Captainjohntaylor]

True, i've always wondered why Forsaken can't talk to humans, did they de-evolve to speak "Gutterspeak"???

[goe1250]

Game mechanics ... forsaken can speak common,soo can blood elves and orcs.

[megaepicexplosion]

@kratogator

Its because Common (aka english) is universly spoken by all races to talk with each other but because it would cause massive spam it isint like that in WoW

[monkeythelamar]

@kratogator Clan leaders who are working together to defeat the scourge obviously had to learn common and orcish.

[NeoDragonCount]

@kratogator Like in real world politics, understanding the language of your enemies and potential allies is a must.

[TiesB100]

@kratogator They were talking in worldchat... obviously

[khatmar]

Is this some kind of official Blizzard video? It´s awesome!

[pepsiblue11]

that forsaken guy was a traitor along with varatames there with the burning legion and that was the new scourge plauge it hurts ppl and undead aswell they destroy the UC but horde quest you kill varartames and take back UC and alliance kill putress

[EvilCleric]

Varimathras you mean.

[caboosefanatic]

dam rogue forsaken, make the rest of us forsaken look bad =(

[Ausftw]

Fuck putress is awesome

[MysticCronic]

Sux that saurfang jr. dies.

[Frozendragons]

Lol, if Putress would've help out the army, they will have a lot of chance to finish off the Lich King with that plaque.

[jpkiddo123]

I thought some eagles were coming to rescue them from the poison. But they were dragons lol.

[blackroomfish]

lol seems like the forsaken are by there self now? O.o cuz all of those bombs killed the ally

and the horsed O.o im so confused but

FORSAKEN FTW :D

[Hoodst2rboi]

Forsaken fails harder than Arthas does at meeting girls.

[StormProductionzZ]

what?

[Zeldarulah]

Variamathas the Dreadlord betrayed Sylvansas, so then theres a quest where you go into UC and kill everyone

[blackroomfish]

ohhh i know that part about that quest so anyway the guy who used the bombs in the scene is with Variamathas then? if im correct lol

[boogablaster]

whats his name?

[Zeldarulah]

Yup, that's apothecary Putress

[kevincxd]

U forgot to mention something else: Ur practically invincable while u fight for UC. Kinda like the DK quest fighting in Ebon Hold.

[Zeldarulah]

Uh yeah, but that has nothing to do with teh story aspect. lol.

[TophatStretch]

Why does the red dragonflight come in to burn anything?

[BlizzFanTV]

Because they are part of this war. They help in the Nexus raid too, to kill the infinite dragonflight leader.

[EvilCleric]

That would be the Blue Dragonflight Leader, Malygos. Infinite Flight has nothing to do with them.

[Ivdarrr]

@TophatStretch question is; why didnt they come 5 minuttes earlier?

[Salogel67]

Yeah except they're not eagles, they're dragons!! Lol.

[RisingRoyale]

a lot of the imagery in this scene was lifted from lord of the rings return of the king, ex: the black gate opens, the arrival of the eagles

[MomoFlaesk]

Man, Arthas nearly died there :O

If that's all it took, those Apothecaries sure know what they're doing! :)

For the Forsaken, VICTORY FOR SYLVANAS

[death4enemys]

At least King Varian is back in Stormwind and got his memory back.

[EvilCleric]

Too bad he he starts acting like a dick almost immediatly. He declares war on the Horde, saying that the Horde betrayed Bolvar, completely forgetting that Saurfang and his troops died alongside the Alliance in the Apothecary's attack.

[DarZun3K]

that was Saurfang the Younger mate, Saurfang still resides in Org

[EvilCleric]

I know that. I just didn't feel like typing "The Younger" on the end.

[3DTyrant]

ahhh ok i see, DarZun3K btw

[kkofthefunkoffv3]

i also just realized saurfang the younger has his fathers old armor from before he was sent to northrend

[kkofthefunkoffv3]

saurfang the younger death knight version expect it frostmourne took his soul so he can put it into a new body and fight for the scourge

[BlizzFanTV]

Actually until patch 3.1.0 he is still alive at the horde base preparing for the assault.

The event will probably be the same like Ahn'Quiraj, where you need to gather resources.

[kkofthefunkoffv3]

ah thanks thought it was phased like lots of areas

[luger74]

fucking forsaken...why couldnt they just help?

[Oscrix91]

Actually, Bolvar might not actually be dead. WoWWiki has a thing on the bottom saying what Keristrasza says for those that have the glitch to speak Draconic.

"They must not discover the fate of the young paladin. Not yet."

Whatever that means is anyone's guess.

[NwZ2]

No, it couldn't be the fact that he either A) died or B) got slimed into something non-human.

Nope, it's gotta be that he's alright!

....

[EvilCleric]

I'm thinking new Death Knight. Nothing more demoralizing than seeing one of your people's champions fighting for the other side.

[244547]

fucking arthas, when i saw this i said "he will do the same when we fight him?" omfg...

[fmxruels123]

putresses laugh when arthas walks back in if awsome

[3062jr]

Shame, Alliance lost the only badass they had.

Rest in peace Bolvar.

[Pwnzoar1]

No, I'm pretty sure Arthas is still alive and well, as you can surely see from the video.

[3062jr]

Arthas isn't affiliated with the Alliance.

He is the Scourge leader.

[Pwnzoar1]

Arthas is the former prince of Lordaeron, therefore he is affiliated with the Alliance.

[3062jr]

Affiliated wasn't the right word I meant.

I can't really think of one.

But still.

[Drokius]

He as affiliated with the alliance as Van Cleef

[hoyer]

yea he is as affiliated whit the alliance as Illidan is!

[Darkshard1]

Blizzard should make cutscenes more often =O

[AndrewConnell9009]

Saurfang Jnr totally dominated, until he died...

see that multi kill lol

[mrkush804]

great cinematic! woot, but i keep trying to find out why is the horde side gonna be better for the wrathgate event, someone please tell me

[chrilledrengen]

its the same for both i think...

[Basch152]

I uninstalled Wow last week because something wasn't working right, and I havn't been ableto reinstall it, I keep getting an error message on the third disc. =/

Now I see people that were in lvl 70 green gear, that were barely lvl 70 before LK as lvl 80s on wowarmory, and I've been 70 for a while, I have high end bt, low end sunwell gear, and I almost consider it unfair. =/

[BlizzFanTV]

Check blizzfan website to get technical support for your World of Warcraft copy.

[Keenan4life]

haha same thing for me when I was 60 full t2... I saw people who were total noobs with epics (glads) when I spent my nights raiding for my gear... What bothered me even more is that pve stuff is useless for pvp on TBC... in the original wow, t2 vs grand marshal was always a great fight to see...

[Captainjohntaylor]

Bolvar Fordragon total legend!!!!

[Tyegra]

Wow! The Forsaken killing every1? That was unexpected. Anyway, beautiful editing! I love it!

[Fabiusbile12]

I will see varimathris dead

[11Bowman]

FOR THE HORDE this cinematic is great !

[emwlepercon]

*BOOM* .... what? lol

[Kontlont]

VERY cool video

For the Horde!!!

[Lichkingknight]

He rebelled against Sylvanas together with Varimathras because the Legion is preparing Return of Nathrezim's.The Fourth War.The Warcraft IV.

[CbmxD]

Grand Apothecary Putress if he is one of the Forsaken why do he kill the hordes to?? :P

[emwlepercon]

i just finished the quest turns out he wuz workin for varamthras

horde kill varamthras and allys kill the pasty ass apoticary guy

knowing dreadlords he probally isnt dead

[deadselly]

Because he hates anyone who's not Forsaken. I LOVE YOU PUTRESS! <3

[Captainjohntaylor]

Varimathras planned a coup to overthrow Sylvannas, Putress is part of it and developed a new plague, Putress i believe is in Shattrath City atm

[karoshikurenai]

after this is the epic battle for undercity. as for horde, thrall and lady sylvannas joins you to retake undercity and slay varimathas for betraying the horde.

[Dharengo]

Where is this video from?

[Dostwyn]

It's Saurfang the Younger. He has brown skin.

[BlizzFanTV]

A bit of comment spoiler: the brown skinned orc commander is actually Garrosh Hellscream, the son of Grom Hellscream. For more information check WoWWiki(.)com

[whyplash81]

Incorrect. He is Saurfang the Younger. Garrosh is located in Warsong Hold.

[BlizzFanTV]

ok my mistake :)

[BlizzFanTV]

ok my mistake twice ... actually its garosh because garrosh is brown skinned and sarufang is green skinned.

[Shakduhn]

actually wowwiki and many other sourses point that it is saurfang the younger, even thrall says it when plp do the quest to retake the undercity, he coments on Saurfang (father) "sorry about the loss of your boy"

[whyplash81]

All of the "Mag'har" orcs are brown skinned. Garrosh Hellscream and Saurfang the Younger are both Mag'har orcs.

[Lmorr53]

Thrice my friend, This is Saurfang the younger. Saurfangs son. Garrosh is in warsong hold. Both Saurfang Jr and Garrosh are Mag'har, or bworn skinned orks.

[Ghost098]

brown because they are uncorrupted orcs :)

[Whackjood]

ENUFF TALK. LET EET BE FEENEESHED

[kriger619]

this is nicely done. I quit playing before lich king came out because it got boring, but this video is very nicely done

[Sam0ansrule]

:"( its sad when the alliance guy dies *sniff* man this is beautiful

[Sam0ansrule]

They should make a whole mvie on this XD

[eskeleto702]

so did Putress executed that plan without Lady Silvannis approval? wow allot of them died..

[Jazbinsk]

love WoW :D

[death4enemys]

Actually this vid is made by indirect authors. It's not from blizzard as far i as know.

We (Blizzfan) got this from other sources :)

[BlizzFanTV]

The quality of the models which look different from the ones in game show that the video was made by blizzard.

To check if i am right please view the Black Temple video models. (they are a lot shinier XD )

[Shanker420]

It's an official in-game video made by Blizzard for the Wrathgate quest chain in Dragonblight.

[rhall1287]

Simply amazing! This is, in my opinion, the best cut-scene made by Blizzard to date. Bravo!

[KhisanthMagus]

For those that don't know, this is a cinematic that is shown as part of a quest line in the new expansion.

[Quingu89]

Great :). That's remind me the Black Gates of Mordor.

[propelerce]

This is really good movie . Thanks blizzfan(.)net

[ProfesorSnape]

Wtf? Awsome! I didnt saw this befoure.
