This isn't even Ban'orak at his peak btw. #Machinima #Warcraft #WorldofWarcraft

I should probably do updates more. Current plans: Finish the videos I've been scripting. Once those are all *mostly* done, this summer I really want to get back into gear with my finale for Journey into the Shadowlands. Been meaning to get that done for years now but had to delay it.

You know what I deeply appreciated about Battle for Azeroth? And especially Mechagon? The fact it included goblins and gnomes for this little island. I actually would've been down in Undermine if you followed around some Gnomes for Alliance. And Gazlowe for Horde. Or both in parts for the story.

They're so stupid, I hate them and love them at the same time

Write them to be cringe, he said... It'll be fun, he said...

(SPOILERS. I apologize for my Zul'jan rambles.) I'm noticing that Zul'jan simply HAS TO BEAT. Is Malacrass. Not once. Not twice. But 3 TIMES. Malacrass has been the source to the Amani swayed to the dark. Perfect culmination to a tell is Zul'jan breaking that cycle & stopping him. #Spoilers

FUCK.

Zul'jarra will save Zul'jan, I feel it in my bones. I know this to be true. We must have hope like never before! HOPE PREVAILS. #Spoilers

MAJOR SPOILERS: The saving grace here is that it seems like Malacrass is going to be the true villain and Zul'jan maybe the victim in this and can still be saved still. Hope remains. It has to... #Spoilers

Lorewalking Thrall confirmed! LET'S FRIGGIN GO!!! NOW THIS IS GOOD NEWS! 👏

The Troll Leaders of Old have spoken. #SaveZuljan

This is like the be all end all for Midnight for me. I just need this guy to live and thrive, please.

Don't do it. Don't you dare, Blizzard. I'm begging now.

Spoilers for the coming patch, WE ARE SO BACK! #Spoilers

I'm gonna spike my own house when this comes out.

"Wait, where's Zul'jan?!" Meanwhile at the Skybridge:

YEEEEEEEEEES!

Children's Week be like: "Get a kid an ice cream!" "Azshara speeding!" "Show them the new Allied Races!" "Funeral Rite for Cairne Bloodhoof..." 💀

I would love it if we somehow get the Son of Dathomir adapted. It's one of my favorite stories from the Clone Wars and helps address how Maul got to where he did after the events of Savage's demise. ...Also Grievous gets to be an actual menace again in that story.

Arcantina may be unpopular, definitely needs way more edge to it in some areas. But I'm always happy to see these two. Desperately and always hoping the Founders of Durotar get some screentime somewhere on Azeroth someday.

SMC is great. But definitely needed to keep a lot of what made it SMC intact. (green crystals) Hearing they had to wash down the Horde Themes to make Alliance feel welcomed makes me think they should've just given them the Vindicaar above the city as I suggested instead.

Yeah... I don't think this was it then. If you have to rush the story because of Raid Progression and the story hurts as a result? Maybe delay the raid for everyone so that the story can be proper? Gotta point to Suramar again because it did this well and it was worth it.

Gonna take it further with my theories for the coming patch on Ula'Tek, there's no room for a Evil Jan. Already you've got the Twilight's Blade on the move to revive Kith'ix. You've got the Vilebranch Trolls rallying to revive their masters. Where in the story is room to make an evil Zul'jan?

Hearing often a lot of WoW 2 lately. Don't think it's happening. We're kinda already in it with how often it changes. What I'd prefer instead is just; A single player RPG focused on existing Characters. Which can exist next to WoW as is. Aka the scrapped "Thrall of War" please.

This model has existed since Legion, and I've only just realized that there's an Elven Spirit (likely Azshara's Handmaiden) at the center part of their chest. That's pretty nifty detail and adds to the horror of this creature.

I feel like I sometimes have the most CURSED favorite character in my two favorite IPs. Rexxar for Warcraft. And Arbiter for Halo. Both of which have played very very minor roles since their debut. I would DIE if they ever got their own games or shows.

I often forget that the blender model that Zelryn made for me, has a hood toggle. Honestly, it's also kinda peak with Ban'orak's whole look. I'll have to use it someday!

In many ways I can see Zul'jan being the "Reverse Garrosh". Where he successfully turns away from a dark path rather than embracing it. It's actually bizarre how little Warcraft characters we have who do that kind of arc of going good. I think the most we have is Sylvanas atm?

I still get these comments somehow. I guess times don't change then.

More & more as time is going on, I really don't think Zul'jan is getting hit with the villain bat. I think the initial idea might've been that in early Midnight? But everything about him points to be a very split character. Prepared to eat my own words but I don't see it.

More Desolate Council Members

I still giggle at this one.

I'm happy to announce I'll be returning to Blizzcon in 2026! For my second time!!! Excited for what's to come and to see old faces and new ones! 👏 Massive thanks to the epic people @blizzardent.bsky.social for the invite!💚

Winner has been drawn! Thank you all for participating!

Thinking about a new list of Hunter Pets I now want since we've gotten most of the ones I wanted now in the current day. - Mechanical Devilsaur - Cyborg-Gorilla - Armored Wyvern - Saddled Clefthoof - Armored Skyscreamers (We need more mounts to become Hunter Pets apparently).

Ever since I saw this character in Hearthstone, I've kinda wanted a Warlock to be able to have these guys as their own minions. They're not demons but it would be cool if they could have "cursed creatures" on their side or something. Warlocks need more demons too of course.

⏳GIVEAWAY TIME! ⌛️ Midnight patch 12.0.5 releases on April 21st and a very special thanks to the Warcraft Team. I'm giving away a Thunder-Ridged Elekk mount! 💚Like! 🔁Retweet! 🗣️Who is your favorite Elf in Warcraft?! 🗓️Winner will be drawn on April 27th! #WoW_Partner🫡 Good luck all!

🚨NEW VIDEO!🚨 I don't think we've seen the last of Lothraxion remotely. Let's get into why and WHY that's really really BAD he's gonna make a comeback. ▶️ youtu.be/X3CN81mMV0w #Warcraft #WorldofWarcraft #Midnight

I love how they got Iridikron's voice actor to do Deathwing again for Hearthstone like they did for Heroes of the Storm! Very neat! Hope they give this guy more roles, Imari Williams does a really good job!

Horsemen 🤝 Forsaken ➡️ Dead People Episode

Realizing Iridikron doesn't have a weapon in his visage form yet. Which means could mean three things maybe: 1. All he needs is those hands. 2. Give that man his rock-rival's mace. 3. Lightsaber.

"Wait, where's Zul'jan?!" Meanwhile at the Skybridge:

I hope they not only utilize the Argent Grounds for Last Titan. But also give us call backs with Thrall & Jaina there. Could easily see Thrall & Geya'rah having a chat like he did with Garrosh. Or Jaina with Anduin as she did with Varian. Also nods to Tirion is a must.

Mists of Pandaria was something really really special. At some point I need to address why it was so effective and why it was WoW at its strongest in a video. But the biggest thing for me was it gave so many varying leaders and characters time in the sun. And it was all solid.

Shorter theory video will be out soon-ish! Probably tomorrow. On our favorite light dreadlord this time around. Got another one I'm also cooking up regarding the naga -- but that'll come QUITE afterwards! Just glad I've got videos to work on in the mean time!

Everyone asks, "Where is Iridikron" Nobody asks, "How is Iridikron..."

I had a dream where we were going to the spooky Zul'aman Isle and Vol'jin was already there waiting for us at like a bridge. And had a whole arc between him and Zul'jan, bringing up the likes of Garrosh, Sen'jin, and even Rexxar (naturally brain) to better himself. And then I woke up. 🥲
