Hearthstone Enthusiast lol.
The best part about it is that they're very different though seemingly the same, Pyro tracks one target and it's spelled doom all over it, this one barely does any damage to the primary target but in the AoE around it the splash does the damage to all the other nearby targets Kinda interesting concept but sadly won't matter much cause everyone just takes the fissure lol

....That make me angry. And when Kel'Thuzad get angry Mr. Bigglesworth get upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth get upset.... People DIE! "insert obligatory pressing buttons to send idiotic minions to fire pit (or ice pit?) here."
+Jarek Yan Just posting here so I can know when someone will say "b-but Zeratul got her kit! No way Blizz are creative enough to make a new kit that still fit!!"
By far, one of my favorite characters in Warcraft, second only to Arthas himself. He was a master planner, manipulator, and the most powerful of the Lich King's servants. Can't wait to obtain him when he's available.
Let me see Hearthstone enthusiast Creator of the abomination Summoner of archimonde the defiler Master and founder of the cult of the damned Well that's all I know
well its well know to people which ones are going out since there was a leak of it, but since it works as ussual when there is a leak its because they are already at work with it, so wait for the other ones
RobotDoctorRobot, a Reddit user, has been requesting Kel'Thuzad in Heroes for a year or two now. Whenever a new hero was released, he would complain that it wasn't KT and would list off that string of titles to kind of prove that he should've been the one. Blizzard just decided to play into it at the end of the video.
It's a meme from HotS subreddit. The guy he mentioned was making posts asking when Kel'Thuzad will be added, using this exact list of titles - every week for over a year. Looks like someone on Blizzard was reading them after all.
There was a guy on reddit who was complaining every time when Blizzard released a new hero and it wasn't Kel' Thuzad and added a table of titles which was his explanation why he should be added. Blizzard saw it and turned into a meme (Daenrys from GoT also have a habit to recite all her titles when she introduces herself)
I like how KT and KT are opposite elements but have similar abilities. I mean, they both have a unique meteor that travels indefinably mechanic. I love it when blizzard pokes fun at them self.
I'm really hoping to see a fel/Outland map from wow in this game so they can bring in characters like mannoroth and grom. I really would like to see a mannoroth hero though
They are getting really creative with how the abilities work lately, with an ability doing one of two things depending on where it lands, like Garosh Groundbreaker and Kel’Thuzad Nova. I'd like to see more of that.
Maybe if you hadn't stopped to Gloat in front of a defenseless Arthas and just an arrow through his head, he wouldn't have made it in time to save him.
long ago in a distant land, I RAGKU the super cool fire lord of evil, unleashed an unspeakable heat wave, but a foolish orc blade master wielding a legendary crusader enchanted sword and 39 other guys stepped forth to kill me for "epic loot" before the final blow was stuck I banned him for 7 years and flung him into patch 4.2 where my evil was current content again, now the fool seeks to form a group to return to the past and undo the future that is RAGKU
i remember when he came out, it's the best memory i have from when i played hots.....one of the best times of my life ...i wish hots wasn't so late to the moba party, it would have been glorious
KT didn't see that interesting at first but the extra abilities he gets really makes it. I honestly think the ice spike should have been one of his main skills.
I've always liked Kel'Thuzad. Despite him being a bad guy, he struck me as being truly loyal to Arthas and was a true friend and mentor to him when Arthas was in the Scourge and was somebody who actually embraced concepts such as friendship and loyalty so long as you were on his side. I'd love to see him in WoW again as he made for a worthy foe and was an interesting character as he was a bad guy but not a complete monster like Gul'Dan who he obviously had disgust and contempt for.
Auroth not to mention all the spell reduction talents tanks have. Heck I got greater spell shield while as lunara against tracer and her ultimate never gets me.
D&D is Kel'thuzad's (the Lich's) ult in Warcraft 3. It used to be a channeled AoE damage ability. Its origin may be in WC2, but the reference here is to its usage in WC3.
Deolrin I am assuming a talent of his will make it do %max health damage to make it closer to the RTS version since iirc it didn't have a base damage and was all %.
bounchofbeaners Not really. The first Warcraft game came out in 1994, and the first Game of Thrones book had been worked at for 3 years already at this point. Besides, the story in the first Warcraft game basically boiled down to Orcs drinking blood and wanting to go to war, so they invaded Azeroth to fight Humans - the story was minute-long cutscenes with scrolling text accompanied by a voice reading, and the snippet of story that was revealed in the Warcraft 1 instruction manual, which was a whopping 8 pages in total for Orcs and Humans, page 16 to page 20 - while the story of the first Game of Thrones book had 694 pages.
true got is lightly older but im not just talking about the first warcraft game im talking about all the warcraft games including WoW which does have more story than all of game of thrones..
because most of the blizzard fanbase is centered around warcraft starcraft and diablo :) These are their signiture games.Overwatch is just a plain game with no proper storyline at all you just go in and kill ppl much like in team fortress
I love how Kel’Thuzad looks a bit to the side when he says "The betrayer of humanity" . Its like he is "well yeah that happened, but it was cool right?"
The red Kel'thuzad? Likely the giant rebellious demons in Diablo 3 that is chained in Mount Akkerat (hope I spelled it right) which is tormented and reguarely skinned to create demonic contraptions.
i love when warcraft 3 clasic heroes are added it would be pretty awsome to see next time maybe Tichondrius with an ultimate that can call an meteor that becomes an infernal or the Doom ability that burns the target and a doomguard appears. Love warcraft 3 even in 2k17
The Lich Lord of The Plaguelands, Commander of The Dread Necropolis,
Master of the Cold Dark, Founder of the Cult of The Damned, Former
Member of the Council of Six, Creator of the Abominations, Betrayer of

"And this is Arthas. The Lich King".
...The unthawed, maker of chains and father of frost wyrms.
"The Lich King in the North"
i've expected something like "will you ever shut up" coming from kel'thuzad at the end, :P
ok, now bend the knee
Kael'thas: I have a really cool tracking heroic that deals a bunch of AoE damage!
Kel'thuzad: *Hold my frozen beer, interloper.*
FotemoreProductions reminds me of another aoe homing heroic. Too bad it does not root
kek'd
Don't you mean ROOT beer?
The best part about it is that they're very different though seemingly the same, Pyro tracks one target and it's spelled doom all over it, this one barely does any damage to the primary target but in the AoE around it the splash does the damage to all the other nearby targets
Kinda interesting concept but sadly won't matter much cause everyone just takes the fissure lol
LMAO!
Kel'thuzad's voice is a freaking trip down memory lane. The dude's so recognizable and awesome.
BOW before Kel'Thuzad.
The Lich Lord of The Plaguelands, Commander of The Dread Necropolis,
Master of the Cold Dark, Founder of the Cult of The Damned, Former

Humanity, Summoner of Archimonde, and Majordomo to The Lich King.
SO MANY BADASS TITLES
and there is hearthstone Enthusiast.
..This is John Snow... He is King of the North...
Henri Osbourne And Owner of Mr. Bigglesworth
I don't know if "cat owner" qualifies as a title.
HERESY, OF COURSE IT IS A TITLE!
You forgot "Owner of Mr. Biggleworth"
....That make me angry. And when Kel'Thuzad get angry Mr. Bigglesworth get upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth get upset.... People DIE!
"insert obligatory pressing buttons to send idiotic minions to fire pit (or ice pit?) here."
I think I'm speaking for my viewers when saying we give a warm welcome to Kel'Thuzad.
can't wait to see the combo's with this hero, can you mr.grubby
I think a cold welcome would be much preferred by him
Winter is coming.
But I thought it was a cold champ... Is it a way of you saying you hate him ? D:
FollowGrubby Wait, Grubby isn't verified?
Kel'thuzad sounds like a really nice dad
"It's alright interloper *we all make mistakes*" I want a dad like that
*proceeds to shadow fissure you into the shadowlands*
5:15-5:44 When you need to fill up the word count in your essay.
Best new hero trailer yet! Well done!
Argus trailer and Kel'thuzad spotlight in the same day? It must be christmas
Viet Pham Phantom Argus is a world in World of Warcraft.
On the subject of porting old classic WC3 heroes, I vote for Cairne Bloodhoof, the real Tauren Chieftain to join the Nexus.
+Jarek Yan
Just posting here so I can know when someone will say "b-but Zeratul got her kit! No way Blizz are creative enough to make a new kit that still fit!!"
Grom Hellscream
Wro Ken Maiev and Vashj
Lor'themar anyone?
"I am Cairn, chief of the Bloodhoof Tauren!"
Now who do we complain we don't have yet?
Medigo Verus AXE,I mean Grom.Make him awesome :D
Δημητρης Ζησιμοπουλος We have his son Garrosh already. Not to mention Samuro.
Medigo Verus Fenix, or Aldaris
Gelbin Mekkatorque so we can have a real gnome. Add Yrel for the waifufags.

...
I want C'thun :I
By far, one of my favorite characters in Warcraft, second only to Arthas himself. He was a master planner, manipulator, and the most powerful of the Lich King's servants. Can't wait to obtain him when he's available.
Kel'thuzad has all the titles.. Even more than Daenerys.
lol xDDD just i finished the last episode
Lol
He is a hearthstone enthusiast. He summons his cat via animal companion.
World of Warcraft>Game of thrones
NOT MORE THEN SETTRA! SETTRA RULES!
Blizcon never ceases to amaze me
this guy has more nicknames than the dragon queen (breaker of chains)
Let me see
Hearthstone enthusiast
Creator of the abomination
Summoner of archimonde the defiler
Master and founder of the cult of the damned
Well that's all I know
Harold Florendo Owner of Mister Bigglesworth
jitzmaster i'd hate to be the one making business cards fir him.
You definitely took our time with him but I gotta say this exceeds my expectations. Can't wait to try him
well its well know to people which ones are going out since there was a leak of it, but since it works as ussual when there is a leak its because they are already at work with it, so wait for the other ones
THEY DID THE MEME!
THE ABSOLUTE MADMEN
what meme?
elessal 5:15

Blizzard are great memers, remember the 6,5/10 or ABA AFK pennants back when Greymane, Cho'Gall, Lunara and arena mode were announced?
I can't believe how much you just nail every single one of these heroes every time you release a new one. Keep it going.
0:33 The perfect anime doesn't exi-
Jaina is a dreadlord confirmed.
That's yesterday news, champ. How about something more original, eh?
Kel' thuzad is a lich confirmed?
That's news from a couple of years. How about something much much more relevant.
like the earth is flat and stationary, we were all duped
Kel'Thuzad is Spacelord confirmed.
I can't wait for people to confuse KT with KT.
there is only one KT, the other one is kael
Jared Delahoussaye KT and KZ i think will be the norm
Jared Delahoussaye
Or, we can call Kael... Carl :'D
This isnt dota xd
Katie and Karl, very simple
5:16 /u/RobotDoctorRobot work is done.
Darkness1407 I don't get it
It's a meme from HotS subreddit. The guy he mentioned was making posts asking when Kel'Thuzad will be added, using this exact list of titles - every week for over a year.

The guy was forever Immortalized in this spotlight by Blizzard.
This is Arthas... he's the Lich King.
I like how KT and KT are opposite elements but have similar abilities. I mean, they both have a unique meteor that travels indefinably mechanic. I love it when blizzard pokes fun at them self.
I'm really hoping to see a fel/Outland map from wow in this game so they can bring in characters like mannoroth and grom. I really would like to see a mannoroth hero though
Bob Bob I wouldn't mind an eredar either. Jaraxxas would be memeier but any would be pretty cool.
Only if they get the original Mannoroth and Grom voice actor, Arthur Burghardt. Mannoroth in the WoD cinematic was terrible and generic.
ScorchHellfire tbh I just want to see a pitlord hero, I said mannoroth because his glaive thrust ability in the raid would be good for a moba
According to a leak we'll get Culling of Stratholme and Icecrown Glaciar this year. So..... Maybe next year we'll get an outland map
They are getting really creative with how the abilities work lately, with an ability doing one of two things depending on where it lands, like Garosh Groundbreaker and Kel’Thuzad Nova. I'd like to see more of that.
I was killed to resurrect this jerk. He also stopped me from killing Arthas before he became the Lich King.
think of it more like an attack u were too stubborn to get out the way of
Stop hating on my boi KT just cause he's undead. Check your elf privilege.
Maybe if you hadn't stopped to Gloat in front of a defenseless Arthas and just an arrow through his head, he wouldn't have made it in time to save him.
Who are you again ?
Sylvanas is undead as well materoony
so we got dread jaina can we now get samuro jack and Aku Rag
F0ZYWOLF i see what you did there :D
*Extra-T H I C C!*
i think kelthuzad looks more like aku then rag
long ago in a distant land, I RAGKU the super cool fire lord of evil, unleashed an unspeakable heat wave, but a foolish orc blade master wielding a legendary crusader enchanted sword and 39 other guys stepped forth to kill me for "epic loot" before the final blow was stuck I banned him for 7 years and flung him into patch 4.2 where my evil was current content again, now the fool seeks to form a group to return to the past and undo the future that is RAGKU
"A good hit can set off a chain of reactions that is chilling to behold." Gee, someone been watching Batman and Robin...
I love how they used the WC3 voice actor for KelThuzad ❤️
Wtf blizzard where is Kel'Thuzad, been waiting since beta, BabyRage
Emperor Thaurissan PogChamp
stoked for this!
Minions, servant, soldiers of the cold dark, obey the call, of Kel'Thuzad.
Still one of my favorite mages in HoTS!
i remember when he came out, it's the best memory i have from when i played hots.....one of the best times of my life
...i wish hots wasn't so late to the moba party, it would have been glorious
5:16 XD They actually made it into the Spotlight
Dear Lich King, Arthas:
Your true friend is finally arrive to assist you.
Love,
Blizzard?
KT didn't see that interesting at first but the extra abilities he gets really makes it. I honestly think the ice spike should have been one of his main skills.
Happy for you now.
3:31
uppper left you can see a banshee with the model from warcraft 3
upper right is anu'barak
I've always liked Kel'Thuzad. Despite him being a bad guy, he struck me as being truly loyal to Arthas and was a true friend and mentor to him when Arthas was in the Scourge and was somebody who actually embraced concepts such as friendship and loyalty so long as you were on his side. I'd love to see him in WoW again as he made for a worthy foe and was an interesting character as he was a bad guy but not a complete monster like Gul'Dan who he obviously had disgust and contempt for.
Will Stitches call Kel'Thuzad "father"?)
"DA-DA?"
You'll want Patchwerk for that. Kel'Thuzad didn't create Stitches, Abercrombie of Duskwood did.
Uhm, i think his father is Abercrombie from Darkshire.
GrabbleRus STITCHES WANT TO PLA ....... Father?
with help form some little too helpful heroes
3:32 Mr. Bigglesworth !
He's on the Dance too.
3:31 Warcraft 3 remastered? Can that be a real thing, now?
*Yes please!*
you're in luck... they announced WC3 remastered at blizzcon
ScorchHellfire Lul
darklord4878 I think you meen Warcraft reforged
You mean WC3 reforged
after garrosh im pretty impressed you actually made this fun and original while keeping some of his original spells
One of my actual personal favorites of all time
I wanted Mr. Bigglesworth to be in one of his ULTS! :(
well he is in his dance
NidgeDFX Mr. Bigglesworth is his dance :D
Frost Blast + Pyroblast = RIP
And their skill set fits very well too
Song of Ice and Fire
Auroth ice block, divine sheilds, mediev shields = rip both kt's. Why do you think Pyro blast is never usually picked in high ranked games?
talking like every game is a tournament
Auroth not to mention all the spell reduction talents tanks have. Heck I got greater spell shield while as lunara against tracer and her ultimate never gets me.
The frozen hearth of Naxxramas awaits you!!!!
I love how he is reacting to all of the titles he is being given.
He read KT's whole title at the end. Amazing.
Awesome! I need him....NOW!!!!
With all those chains I think of Pinhead Kel'Thuzad skin.
5:16 Daenerys, is that you ? :O
You all forget one title for Kel, "Cat Lover, Mr. Bigglesworth Owner."
"why can't I hold all those OP talents?" This hero is way too much fun to play.
Death and Decay brings me back to warcraft 2 era, dem death knights with unholy armor into DaD
D&D is Kel'thuzad's (the Lich's) ult in Warcraft 3. It used to be a channeled AoE damage ability. Its origin may be in WC2, but the reference here is to its usage in WC3.
Deolrin I am assuming a talent of his will make it do %max health damage to make it closer to the RTS version since iirc it didn't have a base damage and was all %.
Well many of the Liches of the Scourge were actually reanimated Horde Death Knights, so it makes sense that they would still use that ability.
Lol even kelthuzad became bored when the narrator dragged out that ending.
"death is a gift, allow me to share it" 5:55
LEORIC INTENSIFIES...
now this is how you do a hero spotlight. great job
The song still give chills. They very forests of Azeroth, whispered the name ...
Well nice champ but... Where is kel'thuzad man?
Alex , con x de mixta no champs here go back lol
5:15 This is not Game of Thrones please calm down
You're right, it's not. It's a reddit meme.
warcraft is older and better then game of thrones and it has a much bigger story.
bounchofbeaners Not really. The first Warcraft game came out in 1994, and the first Game of Thrones book had been worked at for 3 years already at this point.
Besides, the story in the first Warcraft game basically boiled down to Orcs drinking blood and wanting to go to war, so they invaded Azeroth to fight Humans - the story was minute-long cutscenes with scrolling text accompanied by a voice reading, and the snippet of story that was revealed in the Warcraft 1 instruction manual, which was a whopping 8 pages in total for Orcs and Humans, page 16 to page 20 - while the story of the first Game of Thrones book had 694 pages.
true got is lightly older but im not just talking about the first warcraft game im talking about all the warcraft games including WoW which does have more story than all of game of thrones..
@Suffragium You just compared concept and release dates... smh /cringe #kidsthesedays
Where's Blackthorn?
Master of Shotguns
Wearer of Jeans
RCDv57 idk warcraft lore but master of SHOTGUNS sounds like something for me.
why would it ever me warcraft lore? blizzard have more games than diablo, starcraft and warcraft
because most of the blizzard fanbase is centered around warcraft starcraft and diablo :) These are their signiture games.Overwatch is just a plain game with no proper storyline at all you just go in and kill ppl much like in team fortress
I agree but he is actually prince Kyle not blackthorn ;)
*BlackthornE*
^There's an extra E in the end, when will you people learn?! Goddammit...
Malthael, Stukov, Garrosh, and now Kel'Thuzad. Blizzard, you are making my midnight fantasies come true.
I love how Kel’Thuzad looks a bit to the side when he says "The betrayer of humanity" . Its like he is "well yeah that happened, but it was cool right?"
1.4 million views,, but still they think HotS wasn't a game that captivated people?...
Henrik right?!
OMG... What is THAT SKIN?????
Right?
My guess is thats a reference to space lord leoric
The red Kel'thuzad? Likely the giant rebellious demons in Diablo 3 that is chained in Mount Akkerat (hope I spelled it right) which is tormented and reguarely skinned to create demonic contraptions.
A skin who fit with Leoric Lord of Space, i think
It look taldarim to me
0:32 My favourite anime.
what is that from?
Chaining to buildings was incredible overpowered
i love when warcraft 3 clasic heroes are added it would be pretty awsome to see next time maybe Tichondrius with an ultimate that can call an meteor that becomes an infernal or the Doom ability that burns the target and a doomguard appears. Love warcraft 3 even in 2k17
Where's Deathwing?
Yes kel finally, when you release Maiev i promise i`ll be back :P
I can wait no longer!
CreativeUsernameEh now is the time!
It is time for your return!! >:c
i await your return hero
Are you back?
our dream has come true!!! let nixxiom know we got KT yyeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, of course he made it in! He's Kel'Thu-FREAKING-Zad!
"of course i played well! I'm Kelthu-freaking-zad!"
Now Deathwing, Blizzard please BlessRNG
BlessRNG
Javier Silva alextrassa has better chances of being next than deathwing
Rhenham Deathwing is to be a hero in my opinion. They should make him a map.
Eh. Too many Warcraft heros need more diversity.
They did Ragnaros, no reason not to have Deathwing
The game is way better than dota or lol, i do hope they continue to develop it
That cool! We also need StarCraft Dragoon - Fenix :)
To be honest, I think Fenix's trait should be him switching forms. Zealot, Dragoon and Purifier!
Alexi GVS yes
mization, that indeed would be pretty cool
Alexi GVS nah,we need kara for orbital bombardments
I'd like a dragoon only hero, or an immortal....or an scv
After a long time of waiting... He entered the nexus like a boss as he should
I just like how he was getting impatient when the narrator was listing off every title for him
Thank God, blizzard take my money
Kel'Thuzad? That's a funny way to spell Kel...
Oh, wait!
When is Leroy Jankins gonna be a hero?
Considering he doesnt have a revival ultimate, we can confirm that we will be getting mercy as a hero
Jesus, dat music tho, this giving me the chill
They forgot about caretaker of Mr. Bigglesworth!
White Walker Skin Plz...
He has more titles than Daenerys Targaryen
jaceaguar meme from reddit
They did such a great job with him! I was expecting a Support but I'm okay with this too, it'll be fun to learn another complicated assassin.
Minions, servants, soldiers of the cold dark! Obey the call, of Kel Thuzad!
Daenerys Stormborn approves.
Great! now do Imperius :|
nah, do LEEEEEEEROY JJJJENKINS
Nah, we already had a angel joining the ranks of the game not too long ago. Imperius can wait.
Done. What next xD
His per match chats with malthael will be fun
huge step up from garrosh, seems like they put alot of effort into this hero and it actually makes me want to try him out. good job team keep it up.
Kudos Kevin for giving him a proper title at the end
Aaaand no more chaining to structures
So wheres Deathwing?
when naruto?
CriminalIntent89 Don't make me light your hair on fire...
Brutalyte616 you forgot the me
Nicholae Etherblaze shhh.....you hear that? That is the sound of the joke flying over your head
You mean Boruto's dad?
Genji is already in the game
Your high skill cap hero will make a fine addition to my collection.
Love that Kel'Thuzad got this much love and attention...then theres Garrosh...
