Hello again! This concludes the Sentinels campaign. Stay tuned for the Alliance campaign in June 2025! If you have any questions regarding Grant's playthrough in this video or Azeroth Reborn in general, drop them here and I'll be sure to reply!
@@Penguiniel Grant beat mission 5 with 79/100 supply, mission 6 with 10 non-hero army units, mission 7 with 78/100 supply and mission 8 with ~170/200 supply. The numbers are similar for missions 1-4. That's a far cry from soloing the campaign with heroes.
Just replayed it in TFT, Illidan only start leading the top attack wave once Malfurion reached maeiv's base, which I think is fine since you'd have your full army and 3 level 7+ hero by then.
I always liked the 'We need to find a new goldmine to marshal more forces!' line from Maiev. Like, sure, the Night Elves are an ancient people who protect nature and stand against the forces of evil, with Maiev's forces in a desperate life-or-death situation against Illidan's forces, but like hell they'll work without getting PAID.
I mean, no matter what species or war school you hail from, logistics will be logistics. Soldiers have to be fed, equipment needs repairs and maintenance, stuff like that.
The antagonist of the Sentinels campaign isn't Illidan, it's the communication skills of the average elf. Edit: And to throw in some Maiev glazing to counteract Grant's serial warden slander, I don't like her decision to lie to Malfurion about Tyrande's fate, but I begrudgingly admit it was correct. Malfurion knowing Tyrande was alive but deep behind enemy lines would have only risked distracting him if they had gone after Illidan anyway. Whereas going after Tyrande first would have left them with no time to stop Illidan before his spell destroyed Northrend, which would have sent the uncontrolled Scourge into a frenzy across the world at best and done that while *also* throwing Azeroth's environment into magical disarray at worst. In Azeroth, where the elements are sentient and hate you, climate catastrophe is a very apt name.
But picture this... Had Malfurion saved Tyrande, then the lich king would be gone and Azeroth back to the pre-scourge ages. So what is Maiev right about?
@Raizan-IO There must always be a Lich King, as we later discover. If the Frozen Throne was destroyed, the Scourge would either fall into a mindless rampage or be reined in by the Burning Legion. Either of those outcomes is not great for those living on Azeroth.
Admittedly, nuking Northrend would also nuke a significant chunk of the Scourge too, and probably a lot higher proportion of intelligent undead with all the ghouls being /relatively/ fresh.
It always weirded me out how Sylvannas crossed the bridge before using Starfall and Tyrande thought that the middle of it is the perfect place to use it. Usually in expansions characters gain experience and competence compared to the base game, but the Night Elf expansion campaign is a train wreck of idiots trying to outdo each other.
I guess she was expecting the Undead to pull off the -Reforged Silvermoon- Book Arthas maneuver and just flood the river with corpses So Tyrande pulled as much aggro as possible to prevent thst from happening, the bridge didn't get any healing and the weight of the Undead ended up breaking it Frozen Throne is just full of these plotholes Like Warcraft, like Starcraft, like Warcraft
You know how it is by this point I simply comment because I want to help you, GiantGrantGames, so that I get recommended more of your videos later down the ine. Thanks for the Amazing content !!!!
In the mission at 01:00:00 Kael'Thas does seem to rebuild.....his Hero and Workers, but apparently neither units nor buildings. I feel like in such a case, the game would overall feel better if the player controls both factions, instead of FT's offhanded approach. Then again, this is WC3 reborn, not a new take on it Still phenomenal work, porting the campaings so far. Also this just destroys ""Reforged""'s piss poor improvements
"Oh the final mission where you get to play naga, I wonder how difficu - IS THAT TWO ROYAL GUARD!?" The base Warcraft 3 has two naga myrmidon. That's amazing.
The Waves on this first mission look so cool. There is a lot about this game I'm learning seeing it years after I played it as a kid. You were near a fountain of mana, you probably could have used tranquility and waited for the cooldown to move out, unless that's too slow. I saw the ancient of wonders and I was like are you going to kit out your two near heroes, but how much will you even use them, next mission in one of them just leaves and I'm like fair, but the other one, Tyrande. I was right I thought I recall being able to play Naga faction.
58:33 Have you ever cheesed the Naga spellcasters with 2-3 control groups of Faerie Dragons which just fly to the top left and click their ability? That said yes, in any other mission they're rather useless, sadly.
It says it's build in the sc2 engine, but it feels more like brood war 'cause you know, "flocks of coatls strike from random directions and you never know why or how."
Good morning\day\evening, ladies and gentlemen! This might be a rather random and off-topic question, but a copy of Starcraft 1, still in its original wrapping from when it was bought new - is that something that might be worth something? I still have mine in on the shelf
Im still not sure about upkeep - does the tax resulting of higher upkeep makes a) workers return less gold (gold mined slower but no loss) or b) workers return the same amount of gold but part of it just disappears into thin air?
@@ironmilutin wasn't sure it actually wastes gold instead of just reducing the rate. Apparently it also taxes all gold income including creeping and selling items.
I know right !? I even play the final mission or RoC with nothing but riders and the heroes and rarely lose even one while smashing everything that comes, they're great.
He leaves her "for later", leaves her be to let her find her own destiny in the Rick and Morty adventures that Illidan will find himself in And then in BC Maiev just skuddles away to her jail because her vacation is finally over And Furion just sits it out because Furion is a night elf male
@@The-jy3yq lol it is so funny the night elf dudes just spend centuries napping. Women on the other hand riding any wild life they can find. Like what are you implying blizzard
@@The-jy3yq well they never wrote an end for Maiev pre-TBC in the now non-canon RPG book its written as if she died in the outland mission. but in TBC turns out she is just captured.
Something been bothering me about Tyrande Why would she stay on the bridge if her Ult has such a huge range. Couldn't she ... Idk cross the bridge and then cast starfall on solid ground ?
Now we're done with the nelf campaigns, I have to ask... Is there a reason you mispronounce Tyrande? It's a minor thing but it makes my ASD brain *twitch*
Oh boy cant wait for the greatest reunion of all time
Grant and his BFF the Naga Royal Guard
Hello again! This concludes the Sentinels campaign. Stay tuned for the Alliance campaign in June 2025!

Does Illidan ever attack maiev's base? Is this intentional? Mission 5 seems too easy without Illidan attacking maiev's base.
@@Penguiniel It's intentional. I felt the difficulty was already high enough without adding Illidan to the mix.
@@SynergySC2 I supose that this is about as difficult as the original. It just seems weird that so many missions are possible with heroes only.
@@Penguiniel Grant beat mission 5 with 79/100 supply, mission 6 with 10 non-hero army units, mission 7 with 78/100 supply and mission 8 with ~170/200 supply. The numbers are similar for missions 1-4. That's a far cry from soloing the campaign with heroes.

Isn’t this like every videogame tho
Yeah, it is quite funny. Though even if they are working for free you require some resources to keep them supplied with food, repairs, wargear etc.
I mean, no matter what species or war school you hail from, logistics will be logistics. Soldiers have to be fed, equipment needs repairs and maintenance, stuff like that.
14:50 Strength and Fervour are actually what Illidan named his twin blades.
but everyone in WoW just calls them The Undroppable Left and The Undroppable Right)
@@BekindBekbek that is clever, but with the "bind on pickup thing" it is a bit weird and I didn't catch it immediately.
"They still have the capability of yelling, which is the true measure of a man"
Diogenes: Behold the naked rooster! A man!
1:05 Ah yes, the Command and Empires series from Ensemblewood Studios
Malfurion to be surviving night elves of azshara: did you honestly expect me to punish my brother for his crimes?
51:20 RIP Bobert. Best tiger.
If Illidan only tried to explain what his plan was with the Eye... Furion and Tyrande might have even left him alone to accomplish it.
In my brain, canonically Illidan went through all of his trials and tribulations to get power of attorney over Sargaras, thank you grant.
50:04 Tyrande pulling a Gandalf as she also fries CPUs worldwide.
The antagonist of the Sentinels campaign isn't Illidan, it's the communication skills of the average elf.

@Raizan-IO There must always be a Lich King, as we later discover. If the Frozen Throne was destroyed, the Scourge would either fall into a mindless rampage or be reined in by the Burning Legion. Either of those outcomes is not great for those living on Azeroth.
@@MiagolioMaxwell The burning legion would have been there either way, one enemy is better than two, no?
@Raizan-IO when those two enemies are enemies with each other, its much better than them being united agaisnt you
Admittedly, nuking Northrend would also nuke a significant chunk of the Scourge too, and probably a lot higher proportion of intelligent undead with all the ghouls being /relatively/ fresh.

Frozen Throne is just full of these plotholes
Like Warcraft, like Starcraft, like Warcraft
"In... in the... whatever this game is. Command and... Empires. Six."
ilu Grant never change
"Synergy, why did you send me new files?" Day 1 patch, Grant-O! Mwuahaha!
The last time I was this early, WarCraft 2 was just hitting shelves.
Illidan is doing what Maiev use to do, serving as warden of Sargeras.
51:00 Tyrande's Saber Cat/Nightsaber/Frostsaber mount is called "Ash'alah" according to Wowpedia

I swear Blizzard loves their one royalty free hermit trush song. I keep hearing it in the background of every night elf mission
"Oh the final mission where you get to play naga, I wonder how difficu - IS THAT TWO ROYAL GUARD!?"
The base Warcraft 3 has two naga myrmidon. That's amazing.
Unrelated to the video, the voices of the Naga reminded me: What happened to the hybrid faction project you had in SC2?
The Waves on this first mission look so cool. There is a lot about this game I'm learning seeing it years after I played it as a kid.
You were near a fountain of mana, you probably could have used tranquility and waited for the cooldown to move out, unless that's too slow.

They truly are the Muta's of Warcraft

He really do have that Crimson Chin
All hail GGG and Synergy!
Good morning\day\evening, ladies and gentlemen!
This might be a rather random and off-topic question, but a copy of Starcraft 1, still in its original wrapping from when it was bought new - is that something that might be worth something? I still have mine in on the shelf
Yes. Hundreds of dollars.
@@flamerollerx01 Thank you my friend
Maiev vs Illidan
Gaslighter vs Edgelord
17:55 OMG they were roommates!!!
Gosh, I loved the Highelf foot sloggers :D
Illidan really should have just eaten the eye for munchies in hindsight.
Episode 2, right in time for me to sleep to it in the background!
Im still not sure about upkeep - does the tax resulting of higher upkeep makes a) workers return less gold (gold mined slower but no loss) or b) workers return the same amount of gold but part of it just disappears into thin air?
They still take 10, but a part of it vanishes. It reprrsents the fact you need to pay to maintain your troops' gear and stuff.
its 2, so its a drain on your maximum resource
@@ironmilutin wasn't sure it actually wastes gold instead of just reducing the rate.
Apparently it also taxes all gold income including creeping and selling items.
>That opening
Aaand the disappointment is real again.
I would like to formally petition for the Chimera to be renamed the Flydra
I love hippogryph riders! So buff!
I know right !? I even play the final mission or RoC with nothing but riders and the heroes and rarely lose even one while smashing everything that comes, they're great.
I wanna play this but the servers are down ):
Is this going to be through the GGG campaign manager?
No this should be on the starcraft 2 arcade
It would be fun to get that campaingn with nightmare difficulty :D Nice challenge run to watch
Am I the only one having graphical glitches like at 1:32:50?
is synergy also going to remake the bonus campaign?
Not even Synergy knows that at this point.
8:08 GRANNNNT YOU HACE A DRYAD USE DISPEL
11:45 how does Grant of all people know about that?
34:05 I don't like your puns Grant, they are unBEARable.
Whoever the map maker is please add lightning to all the levels ❤
Grubby plays Mechabellum - I'd really love to see you guys play something together. I think your personalities would mesh well.
i want to ask why u never buy the moon thingy from shop to turn into night to refill yr moon well on day time , 🤔
Not really worth it ig, the sudden (reverse) flashbang is rather dazzling to viewers and more micro = less time to talk about creampies and whatnot
its not really worth the cost, its only used in skirmish's early daytime engagement to give you access to shadowmeld.
Grant's stream encoder is suffering these last few videos and glitching randomly.
Very disappointed Malfurion never deals that annoying warden.
He leaves her "for later", leaves her be to let her find her own destiny in the Rick and Morty adventures that Illidan will find himself in
And then in BC Maiev just skuddles away to her jail because her vacation is finally over
And Furion just sits it out because Furion is a night elf male
@@The-jy3yq lol it is so funny the night elf dudes just spend centuries napping. Women on the other hand riding any wild life they can find. Like what are you implying blizzard
@@The-jy3yq well they never wrote an end for Maiev pre-TBC
in the now non-canon RPG book its written as if she died in the outland mission.
but in TBC turns out she is just captured.
grant pleaseeee look into sevenblood's undead campaign.
It's sooooo good and exactly up your alley for campaign content.
How giant is Grant compared to the goat CaseOh?
Something been bothering me about Tyrande
Why would she stay on the bridge if her Ult has such a huge range. Couldn't she ... Idk cross the bridge and then cast starfall on solid ground ?
I sure don't like timed missions :(
Day 1 of asking Grant to continue his Real-Scale series.
Real-scale Azeroth Reborn?
Real-scale Starcraft 2 Wing of Liberty
Go to the first few seconds of the first of these vods.
Next year bud, next year.
@@gbainite Which one exactly do you mean, I didnt find it
Now we're done with the nelf campaigns, I have to ask...
Is there a reason you mispronounce Tyrande? It's a minor thing but it makes my ASD brain *twitch*
