  • The first Warcraft map, Alterac Pass, is the brand new battleground coming to the Nexus. Blizzard asked if I could tell the story of Alterac Valley, the battleground in World of Warcraft that the map is based on. The Frostwolf clan against the Stormpike expedition, Horde versus Alliance... This is the first video I've ever done that's sponsored by Blizzard entertainment...I really hope you'll enjoy!
    Want to know more about Alterac Pass, Yrel and all the new things coming to the Nexus? Check it out here: heroesofthesto...
    Ps. If anyone from Blizzard is reading this...Warcraft 3 or even 4 with these models...please?! Pretty please?!

    Credit where it's due, I don't know of anyone who is more deserving than you are Nobbel. You quite literally are responsible for articulating and shaping the Warcraft stories into the minds of thousands upon thousands of fans. I honestly don't know where my understanding of the Warcraft story and it's characters would be if it weren't for your tremendous efforts. You have taken so many concepts and ideas and given them form with your works, and it's about time that Blizzard gives you the props that you so deserve!

    I don't know why, but i feel that the fact that the leaders in Alterac Pass are alligned with Nexus Lords should have been mentioned.
    Apparently, Drek'thar is listening to the advive of the "raven spirit", saying that their benefactor is powerful, even for the Nexus. This is further advanced by his raven feather clothing, which is also joined by raven skulls.
    Meanwhile, Vandar Stormpike and the Alliance are fighting in the name of King's Crest, an association of Nexus Lords, one of them being the Dragon Knight.
    It is also interesting that Vandar shouts "This is for Theramore!" when the Alliance takes down a fort, which puts their transportation to the Nexus after the destruction of Theramore, long after the original Alterac Valley. This might mean that the Raven Lord is responsible for Drek'thar's new found strength, as he is a wheelchair bound elder during Cataclysm, even before the fall of Theramore.
    The source of all of this is the quotes the two generals speak during Alterac Pass, especially at the end of a game. I heard their comments many times while playing on the Heroes PTR.

    • @gorlab9549
      @gorlab9549 10 месяцев назад +1

      The “for theramore” quote is for how Theramore fell to the horde during the third war with Jainas help. Not the bombing of theramore, they are referencing her fathers death along with his fleet at the hands of thrall and her.

    About time Blizzard sponsored you. Your lore videos are the best. I always feel like I got an honest and complete explanation of lore when I finish watching your videos. You've filled a lot of gaps for me over the years. I remember thinking a few times, "Why doesn't Blizzard hire this guy?".

    Congrats man! Its about damn time! The two views don’t necessarily contradict each other. To the dwarves, they came in peacefully in search of relics. To the orcs, they came in as a force trespassing through their territory. So the orcs struck first, attacking what in their eyes was a hostile force, though in reality it wasn’t. Because of this, the dwarves retaliated and thus the battle there began.
