This expansion, and the Trailer for it shows to me that Arthas/the lichking is even after 21 years the most beloved and iconic char in the Blizzard-verse. Hes basically the Darth Vader of Blizzard/Warcraft
@@sadarot Because it tanked hard, only being barely saved by China to the point that they have to auction their props. Most investor wouldn't want to try that again.
Because Shadowlands wasn's about Arthas. It was about Uther, Sylvanas and Kael. It was your idea they were teasing to show Arthas while they were saying from the start that they will not bring him back
Anyone else notice that Arthas seems to be missing his hair in the cinematic? Normally he has long white hair coming from the side slits of the Helm of Domination and from under the back of the helm.
He who is clad in armour forged with the blood of gods, whose sword freezes the very air it passes. Crowned in tyranny and throned on ice more ancient than the stories of old The Lich King
Lich King saves every Blizzard game
Untill they turnt him into ball of 35 Anima in SL
@@GenjiShimada. not anima, he is soul ash now
bolvar pfp
@@gallie_ ok
Oh please! Most overrated character in warcraft.
Arthas hitting that footman with the Madara stare.
peak inspire peak
gave me more like Conqueror Haki vibes but yeah
Ghost rider penance stare.

My thoughts exactly. He is the perfect villain in wow.
blizzard : our game is dying what do we do
CEO : RELEASE ARTHUS
Arthas Menethil/ Lich King = The Dark Vader of Video Games
He even has his own signature theme music, just like how Darth Vader's leitmotif is the Imperial March.
too bad they killed him off for good in WoW in the Shitlands expansion
Don't fear power, instead fear those that wield it.
@Steve Yes indeed the love of the Prince who is now the King of the undead.
Power alone is not to be feared, fear instead those who wield it
This one is cool. But knights trailer was pure chill
So, I’m cool just fearing power then?
So power is still the scary thing that makes the difference, then. lol
That wide shot of LK getting hit by Holy Shock is downright amazing.
Imagine if holy shock was actually like that
Wasnt that final reckoning same sound effect and everything
@@atheryonhelviti9970 I'm a Classic Andy so idk what that is unfortunately.
Wasn't that Judgement?
I'm with Wilcz. That was definitely judgement
How this use both Hearthstone and WoW combat like, iconic spells, abilities
This trailer is just insane
I'd love to see an Arcane style full series of this.
We had the Warcraft film which sadly didn't get continued :(
@@sadarot it's good it did not continue.
No
@@Luna-ii4mx Yes

Lady Liadrin - Okay... what was that?
The Lich King - Death.
Lady Liadrin - What kind?
The Lich King - Instant.
Luthor you madman you're in the wrong universe. take your pirates elsewhere, dont you have some frog relics to find?
R&M overdose
@@WoWFtw8 mind shattered, even across multiverses
"But there was no sound! He just DIED!!"
Not gonna lie - this cinematic has more Arthas lore than the last patch from Shadowlands...
I'd say than the entirety of Shadowlands, no?
@@ZaZi-Zeta01 yea but no
Because Shadowlands wasn's about Arthas. It was about Uther, Sylvanas and Kael. It was your idea they were teasing to show Arthas while they were saying from the start that they will not bring him back
@@almas4663 Why are you so butthurt over WoW getting an animated show?
@@cameronmcewen9666 I'm "butthurt" over mentioning Arcane everywhere
The artstyle is sick.
Reminds me of arcane
Right? Who knew blood elves would look better without antenna eyebrows or light bulb eyes? Please give us these options in game blizz!
Liadrin is clapped
@@matimusmaximus yes, more human, make them looks totally unoriginal and more boring than they already are
So Riot games-like
Gul'dan : YOUR SOUL SHALL BE MINE!
Lich Kng : No, your soul is mine.
How awesome is Lady Liadrin in this trailer? Can't stop watching it.
No Disney-esque song? EXCUSE ME, BLIZZARD?!
In all seriousness though, I'm excited. Great trailer! 😀
Yes, finally Death Knight class!
Monk when?
I’m digging the new Arcane-style animation.
Same maybe it was even made by the Arcane studio?
@@maximal99334 it wasnt
This is why we need an animated TV series.
Well that was hella cool
Art team, cinematic team... bravo 👏🏻
Hard carry in every most companies.
Anyone else notice that Arthas seems to be missing his hair in the cinematic? Normally he has long white hair coming from the side slits of the Helm of Domination and from under the back of the helm.
Wait, yeah! That's weird...
*BALD-*
Arthas whipping out the blue sharingan
Does he also turn into 35 anima when defeated in Hearthstone? 🤔🤔
The long wait for Death Knights is finally over!!!
I'm glad about their addition while sad that now monks will be inevitable
Just consume product and get excited for next product
@@max7971 Just complain and complain about the next product
This one blows the Warcraft 3 Reforged Cinematic out of the water.
amazing job!!!! classic paladin vs death knight! liadrin vs lich king arthas!!! perfect music and effects. just superb
blood knight paladin-
Isn’t it Lanathiel?
Why classic lol
@@Mammothina nah its Liadrin for sure
That charge can be scary in wild 😳
"-me go face?"
"-yes!"
Deck intro time
"My son, the day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name... *ARTHAS* "
Long Live The King!!!
May He Rule Forever!!!!
First In Battle. Last In Retreat.
No importa cuanto tiempo pase, Arthas Lich King es eterno
This animation is really cool.
Be cool if they did some anthology shorts with this art style.
People can tell about Blizzard what they want but the cinematics are actually god-like.
It’s these cinematics that makes us want an animated TV series.
@@cameronmcewen9666 - It's either "make us" or "makes me", you can't choose both. =')
@@mokarokas-1727 It makes US, genius!
@@cameronmcewen9666 - The word "cinematics" is plural, genius!
@@ogge9304 - Where was the swordfight in the original..? lol
This artstyle looks amazing more of this please
We should get that in the form of an animated series based on WoW.
Very arcane
Its literally just Arcane copied. Are you guys blind or dumb or both? This is nothing to praise
@@DATskorge very very Wildstar
@@PrimarchRoboleonFrenchyman arcastar
This is the single best action animation made from blizzard ever
This franchise needs an animated series.
probably my new favorite art style
Love the use of "Arthas, my son"
Where?
@@mattvellanti827 that's the name of the song
That classic Wrath of the Lich King music….🥲
00:24 When did the Lich King obtain the sharigan?!
😂😂😂
Madara type beat
The genjutsu moment looks cool. No kidding.
@@Tobbiys It was amazing
Top notch cinematics for this one! WOW!!! 👏👏👏
Well... Not really
this isn't a cinematic it's a kid's cartoon
@@firmak2 they made an animated series?
This is how the animated series should look.
@@amvlabs5339 Ah yes, this doesn't look edgy and lifeless enough
Can we have this version of Arthas my Son please. Sounds amazing!!
was this animation done by Fortiche? or is it just in that style? either way it looks so beautiful!
Lady Liadrin’s crusade giving goosebumps 10/10
This is the hearthstone version of break in case of an emergency.. and I'm here for it..
Holy snap they actually brought it back and even took -Amaz- redacted idea for the Hero Power
This trailer makes me reconsider getting back to hearthstone
That was one of the best cinematc design that Blizzard could ever done.
Awesome in every possible way.
How did we go from this to titans "trailer" in just 8 months?
That's amazing! Lady Liadrin is awesome!
Theres more "Lich King" here than in the whole shadowlands expansion.
That was epic! We need more Lich King!
easily their coolest trailer. Wrath music never fails
1:00 youtube's new ambient mode is awesome
"Blizzard after all you've put me through, the last thing i'll going to give you is the peace of death"
- Lich King probably
Finally an Epic trailer and an expansion of Real warcraft lore, intrigued to see it!
Did Arthas reference Shang Tsung from Mortal Kombat?
The wings into the holy shock was amazing
This is new reason to come back to hearthstone, again...
Seeing how horrendous their recent changes were, not even this is going to make me come back, man...
@@Doomeiner understandable
This animated short makes me want an animated series like how arcane is
That is what I’m petitioning for.
Super awesome cinematic! Loved the visuals, so excited for this expansion
Wait, didn't we have this already?
Wdym exacly ?
No lol we waited 8 years for this bro
great trailer, hearthstone team legit is on top of all Blizz production
This looks like its from the studio that did Arcane, he art style is there , sick trailer
Clearly not, this looks like those mobile games ads like Mobile Legends
This is why we need an animated series.
Will soundtrack from this trailer be available in the future? this one is epic
Make Henry Cavill don the armor of Arthas Menethil.
that genjutsu was amazing.
Can we use this artstyle for an animated series please?!
It’s what I’m petitioning for.
"Your Soul Is Mine" - Classic Shang Tsung Mortal Kombat reference! Nice!
dying to see more animations like this from blizzard
Absolutely Insane!
love the fight cinematic!
def missed these. getting illidan vs arthas vibes from wc3 but better
This is what the fight between Arthas and Illidan should have looked like in Reforged.
@@frostbann301 very true
Can't wait to unlock this in the battle pass.
Blizzard art never fails, really hyped for this expansion!
ahhhh...Can we get more Cinematics like this?...pls???
0:24 these eyes... 😮😮😮😮😮
Riot really influence every animators to make their animation like arcane
That animation style though. Please tell me you have bigger plans for whoever belted out this beautifully animated piece
Its not that far away from older pieces they have done.
Please keep this trend of this kind of cinematics
This is gorgeous , good work
Loving the adaptation of the LK's theme.
0:23 why does the lich king give me darth vader vibes right here
Anakin and Arthas kinda are the same lol, just like Kenobi and Uther
@@PrimarchRoboleonFrenchyman then why didn't Jaina get pregnant?
@@nicholasche5032 - Because they only did it once. Slim odds.
@@PrimarchRoboleonFrenchyman And Jaina is like Padmé. One of the key differences is she didn’t die.
00:37 the most epic moment of all blizz cinematics ever
The artstyle of this trialer reminds me of Fortiche/Arcane
0:24 Lich king Genjutsu?
Finally an epic cinematic for Hs!
He who is clad in armour forged with the blood of gods, whose sword freezes the very air it passes. Crowned in tyranny and throned on ice more ancient than the stories of old
The Lich King
Как же не хватает в конце: неплохо сыграно!
Ima sit here and wait patiently for monk class ❤️
0:26 Of course Arthas has conqueror's Haki
Legit, didn’t even know hearthstone was still around
Better than the Shadowlands cinematic
Is that the blue lich king?
And so my dreams of playable monks this year die
true
Maybe in MoP Classic.
lol
Frostmourne hungersss....
True. but it will happen. And an entire monk focused expansion will be marvelous.
Long live the one true king may he reign forever may his strength fail him never
This is Arcane style of animation.
the name is fortiche
The doing warcraft anime series , but you dont know it yet 🥹😅
Finally we get to see the linch king in combat
Omg the art and animation are amazing. 😍
Just one question: why did you dont put tirion fighting with lk?
Possibly my favourite hearthstone cinematic!
Anyone's remember the old old old paper version of hearthstone where death Knight was one of the first classes to be introduced?
When you know that blizzard can create something like that but then you remember that they made pelagos new arbiter.
Watch them make retconed trans Chromie into the new bronze aspect in two years.
@@Zeldaytal they did WHAT to my little bronzie?
Made who the new what? Wake up, we need to get to the wrathgate
@@Zeldaytal The animated series ought to undo that when we get it.
And only fake fans would be against it.
Better cinematic quality than the WC3 reforged version of Arthas vs Illidan
This is how the _World of Warcraft_ animated series should look. Just like _Arcane._
Please no. This style works great with Hearthstone, but not WoW
@@almas4663 You know we need this.
Will you let it go already? You've been spamming for over TWO YEARS.
@@mokarokas-1727 It’s been ONE year! Quit spreading toxicity and hatred on these videos!
