TBC realms. TBC realms were among the most popular and popular, but with WOW TBC Gold Classic getting less popular. It's unclear if the forthcoming Season of Mastery will change that, but it'll sure inject some life into Classic.
It was something that I was thinking about that I didn't know what to do. I'm missing Classic. I am a huge fan of Classic. Yet, with all the turmoil that has transpired with Blizz It's as if I'm playing with a smile but my 15 minutes go to those who do not care about harassing women or employees.
This isn't the place for me to join in the ongoing debate of "did Thrall cheat using magic?" But I'm taking the standpoint that the whole affair could not have happened in the manner it did. But, most importantly, Thrall should never have needed to use his power of nature.
The film clearly attempts to frame Garrosh as the ultimate strength, with Thrall is half strength and half magic. So , as the battle drags on of course the stronger and more physically strong would become dominant, causing Thrall to turn to his shaman abilities to triumph.
Herein lies my theory. Garrosh is a more powerful fighter than Thrall. It's so good that it's actually humorous.
The reason being their respective childhoods and experiences. Thrall spent his childhood and teenage years preparing to be a Blackmoore gladiator. His entire life was devoted to fighting. After escaping, he led in a war against Durnholde that involved numerous fights and raids against the forces of Lordaeron. A quick note, the "Lords of the Clans" that were very open about Thrall's height when compared to regular orcs kept talking. Just a few days after his victory, he was able to win the third war, a conflict of which the very fate of the entire planet depended. His people were led to victory, which included night elves and humans. In less time-lapse Daelin enters Durotar prompting Thrall to fight his people once more. My point is Thrall was a soldier and trained throughout his entire life. There were moments of moments when he didn't like vanilla WoW or the birth of Durotar. His life was full of combat more than anything.
Garrosh On contrary is a novice with no experience and has no formal training to draw on. He was raised by himself, without any significant conflict or foe to help him. The ogre tribes moved to Nagrand very recently because the Bladespire had taken over their territories to the north. The Bladespire was evidently given some form of training, since it is orc culture to fight and hunt for a living, but this is just a supposition and nothing to be noted. He spends the entirety of TBC in a state of utter silence to combat the Legion or Illidan. Wrath is the one time in which you can argue that the proper training was received and exposure to fighting the Scourge. This is due to the fact it was not his full expansion. In all the legend Saurfang is, him training Garrosh for 2 years or so is no substitute for an entire lifetime of fighting. He did not participate in any major Cataclysm conflict. Similar to the majority MoP their counterparts, the cheap Burning Crusade Classic Gold sole major battle in which he was in was the battle of Ogrimmar.
