On the topic of if Gork and Mork are the strongest Gods, I feel the easiest way to view it is that they are a physical representation of the Orks themselves. As individuals, they are little more than fodder, but if all the Orks ever worked together, nothing could really stop them. Same with Gork and Mork; individually, Gork or Mork could never stand up to someone like Khorn but if they worked together they would be unbeatable. However, that would require them to stop fighting each other and if there is one thing an Ork can't do, it's stop fighting. In short, it would mean that Gork and Mork could destroy everything if they ever realised the power of friendship.
You can say the same about the chaos gods, A lot of people think that the emperor is fighting the 4 of them in a 4 vs 1 battle but the truth is that its more of a 5 way fight of everyone vs everyone, if the gods stopped fighting and worked together they could squash the emperor with ease.

in 40k, I realize that the orks are one of the oldest races. They are one of the most numerous races. They all have an active psychic presence. So yeah, Gork and Mork are bad ass by god standards. The reason they don't get more 'screen' time? I think two reasons. First, they don't bother making warp creatures, no demons or angels or anything. Since 99% of a chaos god's lore comes from what their servants get up to, that gives less action scenes for the boys in green. Second reason? Nobody who meets with them survives.
Also they just don't do anything that interesting most of the time. They're constantly fighting each other, that's all they do outside of occasionally talk to or lend power to one of their followers. It would just be two hundred pages of "Gork punched Mork. Mork punched Gork".
I honestly think of the Krorks as having a personality similar to custodes. Violent but professional and possibly fairly intellectual since they were completely self sufficient in every way and largely just following orders of the old ones
I like to think of them as the brutes from halo, as smart as everyone else, physically as if not more than everyone else, but with a tendency to just snap and go ape mode. And Orks are just the ape mode with almost none of the other parts
My head canon for 40k is that when the Necrons went away and the Eldar were becoming the dominant species, their only obstacles were the Krorks which while yes they could just use their own Gods in battle, they could not manage to exterminate them. Therefore it is my theory that the Eldar used their mastery of divinity and manipulation to make the orks create/ split their existing God into Gork and Mork. I also believe the psychic backlash of their creation and inevitable fight between the two gods increased the Krorks tendency for infighting, making managing them way easier on the Eldar. The ork constant infighting while hilarious, does not make sense in the purpose of their creation. I sincerely doubt that the almost omniscient Old ones, while trying to make the universe sturdiest and most efficient canon fodder would overlook such a defect. If your frontline soldiers start going at each other's throats the moment their leader dies, that is not really good when you are facing undying robots with reality warping masters that can literally turn armies into dust. However, the Eldar messing with things built by the Old Ones out of a thirst for power and arrogance is 100% in character for them. So to me like many other things, it's the Eldar's fault.

I'm sure she'd get a kick out of it if she found out about this. But in the same time way, she'd complain about being compared about a goddess that was essentially put in a jar by Nurgle.
Some old lore, but since everything is canon: While in the warp, Gork and Mork came across two entities in a cave, and - bein’ propa Orky - decided to beat the hell out of them, to the point where one was barely clinging to life and the other was crippled and begging for mercy. These two entities were none other than Nurgleth and Kharneth, otherwise known as Nurgle and Khorne. As a result, Khorne is mostly confined to the Skull Throne, and Orks are immune to the corruption of either god (and that of Slaanesh (Orks are brutes anyway) and Tzeentch (who was probably laughing his ass off watching the fight))
In 40k it actually is canon that from time to time one of the chaos gods gets his hand on an orc or two. But those orcs are soon branded as oddboyz, beaten up proppa so they never grow to be a threat (because the orcs growing on victory thing), and soon become disappointed and forsake the foreign powers, who let them down.
Tzeentch probably doesn't even say an A to the godbois because it's funnier to watch them fight and foil everyone else's plans by pure happenstance. And if there's one thing Tzeentch thinks is funny, it's a foiled plan.
@@voidwalkerbruh7426I think is because Isha is or was(I don’t know) a prisioner of nurgle, and being a prisioner of nurgle is not a pleasant think, I think you can imagine why.

reminder that gork and mork are the 2 missing primarchs. they were too good at fighting the enemies of the imperium and got so invested in battles that the emperor eventually lost track of them and next thing he knew he found them being worshipped by the orks as gods for fighting so good. the rest is history
@@Rayman-kddz2nah, the 2 missing primarchs have little to no lore about them other than that Rogal and Guillisuit helped decide to wipe them from the history books, and took on some of their space marines into their own legions.

Nurgle once invited the Boyz to his house to try and teach them the meaning family and brotherly love. One destroyed mansion and a trampled rot rose garden later, and he’s yet to succeed.
Not gonna lie, one of the things that kind of makes me like Age of Sigmar is Soulbound talking about how orcs and other Destruction-aligned races aren't necessarily evil. Heck, most of the Bonesplittaz archetypes for orruks are weirdly friendly towards Soulbound from non-orruk races; the Morboy views his Binding members as literally missing pieces of his soul, Wurrgogs find being Soulbound to be spiritually reaffirming, and the Wardokk is characterized as being super-hyped to help non-orruks see just how much fun there can be in smashing things. It's almost sweet, in an odd way.
I'm imagining gork delivering a haymaker to mork and he crashes into the garden of nurgle and picks up a big tree or something and basically chairshots gork in the back of the head while he's flexing his muscles to unimpressed daemons

"Gork and mork when slaneesh was born" *Gork* should we do something? *Mork* nah she is weird, I already punched her and made weird noises that I absolutely didn't like
I think the main reason why Gork and Mork aren't that active in either setting is because they are already busy fighting each other in their realm, regardless if they are the strongest gods or not. Another theory is that their realm is either separate from the warp like the webway, or even worse, the entire warp is their realm and that might explain why Daemons hate the Orcs/Orks

I just realized that Kork and Mork are the god versions of Kaldor Draigo. -They walk the warp daily -They wreck the chaos gods stuff constantly -They’re batshit insane -They are basically ignored by the daemons of chaos -And the rest of the warp has to live with it This divine loony toons duo are literally just Draigo but actually fun and entertaining. Also I heard that there was a really really old Ork god called Tek god of intelligence, and technology. Yeah not hard to see why he doesn’t exist anymore. Regardless of whether or not any of that is true.
Gosh I’ve been waiting for this sort of video for so long. Thank you so much for making it, enjoyed hearing about my favorite two green divine doofuses. Here’s a proper WAAAAAGH to your efforts.
I absolutely love the idea of each god picking a prophet simply because of the hilarious notion that the two gods were gifting their orcs with a lovely holy war to fight, but the orcs being orcs failed to recognize that perfectly good opportunity to smash each other's heads in favor of taking their prophets and smashing up the rest of the world instead. Gork and Mork and Mindy are great.
Have to say I enjoyer your delivery and scripting for this one. Some past videos have been interesting, but I've admittedly had some difficulty following them. Here, I was able to follow everything better!
I don’t know if you can actually see how long I’ve been enjoying your content, but it’s been from the beginning! But this one really takes the cake for me so far! I have not laughed so hard over a video in a long time! This is epic! Thank you!
'Ate pointy ears 'Ate Spikey boys 'Ate stunties 'Ate Humies ... Well not really, they do put up a good krumpin. Love me gods Love me dakka Love me shootas Love me fast boyz Simple As.
My theory is that Gork and Mork are like Sangunious (wrong name I know but we all know our favorite angel boi) in that he is the Kork inside of Trayzns museum. The two share similarities that some part of them still is alive to a degree via some part staying in Stasis, the Kork is ‘alive’ but probably isn’t allowed what is to keep him alive: fight’n. Now over time once all the Korks are dead and it’s just Orks this guy survived and basically could still communicate and so on to a degree in some form; while probably damaged by his own time being in status since since creatures can still be aware during it. After a while the Orcs basically made him or at least his fragmented mind into two gods that are both the same in a sense. This is similar to Horus during ‘slaves to darkness’ we see that there are multiple fragments of Horus’ soul. This is similar to the Emperor in a a few ways. In theory Horus couldn’t return to his clone because above 50% of his soul was destroyed to a degree. This is similar to the Alpha legion’s primarch. They are two souls and apparently the one that died had his soul shattered and scattered throughout his legion. So I’m curious if the Kork is the god, what happens if the gods flesh body is returned to activity? I can imagine the deceiver pulling some stuff and then having to fight the Ork god if this is the case. Add to the Orks already in the collection.
You and Gajin Goomba spreading the Ork gospel. As someone who whose favorite faction is the Orks (but I don’t play 40k because I don’t want to choose which bills to pay), I appreciate this.
Gork and Mork are the best because orcs love winning. It is an aspect of them. It doesn’t matter because they aren’t planning to overthrow anything ever.
I just came up with a theory about the Kroks and their devolution into modern day Orcs. What if Krorks, for all their power and relative smarts, were nevertheless unable to either create or otherwise make use of Gork and Mork? Maybe they saw the gods as a huge enough advantage for their survival, or just their ability to wage a proper krumpin' war, that they willingly devolved their species to a state that would please/empower/create Gork and Mork, thus granting them the favor of two Warp deities so strong that the Chaos Gods view them essentially as moving natural disasters. Perhaps at their level a pair of strong patron gods were ultimately more beneficial than the individual strength of a Krork as compared to a modern day Orc, so they just made the trade -off.
Personally, on the topic of the strength of the gods relative to eachother, I hold to the idea that power levels are not the main things when it comes to how gods interact. Instead, I hold the same idea that is common in the Everqueed fanfic, that gods all play by narative rules, emotional resonance, by the values and numbers of worshipers, and by the things they embody. Remember. The Warp is shaped by emotions. That is why Slaanesh did what the other three chaos gods could not, and killed the Eldar Pantheon, even when Slaanesh is the weakest chaos god. The Eldar gods had, as gods mostly asociated with order and moderation, and who were many of them have portofolios that are anathema to the Khorne, Nurgle and Tzeentch, had a fundamental narative advantage over the chaos gods, even if they were on paper weaker by the time Slaanesh was born. But Slaanesh had the narative advantage of being the end point of Eldar mistakes, and the living embodiment of the Eldar forsaking their gods. And this is how things go with Gork and Mork, and with Chaos. Slaanesh has no narative power or advantage over the Orks, so she cannot affect their gods. Same goes for Tzeentch to a lesser extenct. The orks dont scheme, and dont bother with such overly complicated nonsense, and dont even have the emotions to allow Tzeentch to corrupt them, which again puts the ork gods at an advantage over the changer of ways. Orks are near perfect organisms and living weapons, unaffected by plagues and diseases, and feel no despair. They dont contemplate destiny, and are incapable of giving up, or of being nihilists. As a result, not only does Nurgle have no way of actually affecting the Ork gods thanks to the narative build around the orks in universe, but the ork gods have the perfect in universe explanation for overpowering the god of plagues. This leaves only Khorne, who is stil limited by the lack of anger, hate and wrath the orks feel, putting him at a disadvantage over the Ork gods, even if he has the best shot. In conclusion, this allows both the Chaos gods to be on paper stronger, and yet to have nothing to affect or hurt the Ork Gods.
My head cannon of Drago is basically TTS with some exceptions. He still pals around with Leman Russ to troll demons and wreck things, but he also goes and parties with the orcs in Khorne's realm. He hallucinates that they are the remains of his battle brothers, and the orcs like him because he fights good and kills demons good. So when the orcs all fall down to go to sleep, Drago nopes out of there, and Khorne laughs while awaiting the next day fight.
I like the idea that Grok and Mork could theoretically no-diff everything in the warp, but they are so busy fighting each other they just end up doing nothing much.

@@PeachDragon_ Every time Pancreas mentions Isha.
Fauna as Isha is the highlight of my day.
Always good to see mommy pop up in unexpected places.

Uuuuuuu
Man I love fauna
Man I love Fauna so I guess that makes Isha my favorite warhammer god now
I like that. "They're like a natural disaster but in hell" that's cool
Imperium, Eldar(looking for the final cronesword), Tau, and Chaos ship crew travel in the Warp: “What the here is happening? Why are two nebula’s clashing like it’s a Warp Storm in the Warp?”
Local Kaldor Draigo: “That’s just Gork and Mork fight each other. Pay them no mind, they’re harmless as long as you don’t interact with them. Its a perfectly normal phenomenon here.”
“If your confused, go into your bathroom, look in the mirror and say ‘Orkz’ until you get it.”

Fauna as a stand in for Isha is funny but not wrong.
Irys as a stand in for Slanesh?
@@ericjeon2727i would go with marine because horni
fact that Kronii has eaten food so spoiled she might as well be a Nurgle worshipper seems fitting
I'm sure she'd get a kick out of it if she found out about this. But in the same time way, she'd complain about being compared about a goddess that was essentially put in a jar by Nurgle.
@@lunatic-db6mp😅😊😊
Some old lore, but since everything is canon:
While in the warp, Gork and Mork came across two entities in a cave, and - bein’ propa Orky - decided to beat the hell out of them, to the point where one was barely clinging to life and the other was crippled and begging for mercy. These two entities were none other than Nurgleth and Kharneth, otherwise known as Nurgle and Khorne. As a result, Khorne is mostly confined to the Skull Throne, and Orks are immune to the corruption of either god (and that of Slaanesh (Orks are brutes anyway) and Tzeentch (who was probably laughing his ass off watching the fight))
To be fair, that is likely how the Eldar gods got both the Chaos Gods and Gork & Mork to be kept at bay for as long as they did.
In 40k it actually is canon that from time to time one of the chaos gods gets his hand on an orc or two. But those orcs are soon branded as oddboyz, beaten up proppa so they never grow to be a threat (because the orcs growing on victory thing), and soon become disappointed and forsake the foreign powers, who let them down.
Tzeentch probably doesn't even say an A to the godbois because it's funnier to watch them fight and foil everyone else's plans by pure happenstance. And if there's one thing Tzeentch thinks is funny, it's a foiled plan.
*shows fauna as Isha:
"No not like this, please pancreas"
What
Context
@@voidwalkerbruh7426I think is because Isha is or was(I don’t know) a prisioner of nurgle, and being a prisioner of nurgle is not a pleasant think, I think you can imagine why.
I like to think that Gork and Mork are the manifestation of an eternal dialectic thesis, antithesis, and all that jazz
Tell me you’re an oddboy without telling me you’re an oddboy.
Fauna as Isha was an unexpected surprise, but a welcome one.

I feel like Korn being unsubtle is just a failure of imagination. Violence has to start somewhere. Jingoistic enthusiasm, obsession with honor and fair play, institutionalized violence leading to a society built on the corpses of the underclass and so on.
Then Scar-brand shows up, yells “I HATE SUBTLETY” and proceeds to collect craniums for the cranium chair.
Wasn't skarbrands big crime that got him banished trying to actually be subtle?
@@anna-flora999 Nah, it was cowardice.
@@anna-flora999 it's not that he tried to sneak attack Khorne, it's that he tried to sneak attack his rear instead of his face. If he'd suddenly leapt at Khorn's massive chest trying to murder him, Khorne might have just laughed it off.
If you're a warrior of khorne and you try to surprise attack your foe, you attack their front, or you shame yourself in front of Khorne.
Hell fucking yes. You better talk about how they canonically dunk on the chaos gods regularly
The strength but no mastery theory actually makes a lot of sense.
Gorkamorka, also known as TENGEN TOPPA GORKEN MORKANN.
WAAGH WAAAGH, FIGHT DA POWAH!
I can't wait to finally learn which one is brutally cunning and which one is cunningly brutal.
Anything ever: *exists*
Gork and Mork: “WWaaaaaaggghhhh!!!” *Immense ultra violence ensues*
I was going to say ‘needless violence’ but with orks violence is never needless.
Fun fact about Catachan actually: There are orks on there, but the planet is so damn deadly the Orks spend most of their time not fighting, but trying to get off that blasted world.
Sleep is no longer relevant. Watching this takes priority. No sleeping till This entire video is added to my brain catalog
Never forget Skarsnik and Gobbla, the best mushroom friendship
So páncreas is a Fauna fanboy?
Never thought we’d share more in common
reminder that gork and mork are the 2 missing primarchs. they were too good at fighting the enemies of the imperium and got so invested in battles that the emperor eventually lost track of them and next thing he knew he found them being worshipped by the orks as gods for fighting so good. the rest is history
headcannon now loaded
I gotta ask is that true? Because I really hope it is
@@Rayman-kddz2nah, the 2 missing primarchs have little to no lore about them other than that Rogal and Guillisuit helped decide to wipe them from the history books, and took on some of their space marines into their own legions.
@@cookiecraze1310 Ohhh okay, thanks for telling me👍
Stop shoving the imperium into every aspect of every peice of lore
I came here to distract myself that Fauna hasn't streamed a couple of days, and good ol' Pancreas throws her as a stand-in for Isha. My Sapling heart can't take this

I was surprised they went with Krork. I figured they'd go with a name like Gmork, to imply that Gork and Mork represent what the Orks have lost. But I guess they didn't want a lawsuit from the estate of Michael Ende.
Funnily enough an orkish being named Gmork does exist as a deity in Kroot mythology.
I don't get the joke please someone explain it to mw
@@Bp0981 Kroot became what they are by ingesting Ork flesh in their history - fusion of both Ork gods being worshipped by them is hilarious and surprisingly makes sense
I like to imagine gorm and Mork are actually the most active on heated ork on ork battlefields on planets they basically run completely. We just don't see it
I always assumed Nurgle has been showing up a lot in games is because he can make zombies
Also because proper khorne portrayal is probably gonna get your game age restricted
Proper slaanesh portrayal is definitely gonna get your game age restricted and proper tzeench portrayal is too difficult to do for most videogame writers
And there you have it the perfect description of writers block. "I got drunk, turned my mind off and truly embraced what it means to be green."
Love Gork and Mork they need to show up more within the lore!!!
Man the aos legends about gork and mork are super funny.
Like the obe where they got bit by a spider, then bit that spider and now that spider is a waaagh godbeast spider that is also the badmoon.
Or the one where Gorkamorka's breath is the everwinter, or the one I like the most about goddrak litteraly being born from gork punching a fortress
Reminder it was gorks blessing that powered the giant ass claw that the commissar took when he defeated the warboss on Armageddon
Not sure how I feel about Fauna being Isha because… *JAR*
WAH-done. Love to hear about the Gloomspite gitz whenever you get around to covering another age of sigmar faction. Thank ya again for more content.
Nurgle once invited the Boyz to his house to try and teach them the meaning family and brotherly love.
One destroyed mansion and a trampled rot rose garden later, and he’s yet to succeed.
Not gonna lie, one of the things that kind of makes me like Age of Sigmar is Soulbound talking about how orcs and other Destruction-aligned races aren't necessarily evil. Heck, most of the Bonesplittaz archetypes for orruks are weirdly friendly towards Soulbound from non-orruk races; the Morboy views his Binding members as literally missing pieces of his soul, Wurrgogs find being Soulbound to be spiritually reaffirming, and the Wardokk is characterized as being super-hyped to help non-orruks see just how much fun there can be in smashing things. It's almost sweet, in an odd way.
I'm imagining gork delivering a haymaker to mork and he crashes into the garden of nurgle and picks up a big tree or something and basically chairshots gork in the back of the head while he's flexing his muscles to unimpressed daemons
All while Nurgle is trying to make sure that Isha’s cage isn’t destroyed in the collateral damage.
Imperium, Eldar(looking for the final cronesword), Tau, and Chaos ship crew travel in the Warp: “What the here is happening? Why are two nebula’s clashing like it’s a Warp Storm in the Warp?”

Gork and Mork are Khorne’s old drinking buddies. They’re welcome to enter his citadel of brass anytime they want. Khorne just calls dibs on all skulls.
I like the idea that Gork and Mork are just natural disasters in the warp and the chaos gods just have to deal with it.

I just like how you described gork and mork as a natural warp/hell disaster that is to good
finally we have the Mork and Gork video we been waiting for
I just realised that Mario is like the antichrist for orks.
You mean because he eats mushrooms to power up? Frankly, I think they probably relate to that.
Love how you used fauna as a stand in for isha and joy from blade runner
Ngl gork and morks being like an earthquake in the warp sone funny ngl i like to imagine a chaos waither report, trying predect where there fight is gonna go next
"Tonight in the domain of korn, its expected for a green quake to happen in the east ill 5, remember to lock your doors and board your windows" -chaos news guy
"Gork and mork when slaneesh was born"
*Gork* should we do something?
*Mork* nah she is weird, I already punched her and made weird noises that I absolutely didn't like
I think the main reason why Gork and Mork aren't that active in either setting is because they are already busy fighting each other in their realm, regardless if they are the strongest gods or not.
Another theory is that their realm is either separate from the warp like the webway, or even worse, the entire warp is their realm and that might explain why Daemons hate the Orcs/Orks
I really appreciated your take on Mork and Gork
Fauna as Isha remains the perfect visualization please never stop using this
I like the age of mythology tune in the background you chose well.
“It’s like a natural disaster, just in hell” 😂 damn man that’s a great way to say it.

I like the old school idea that Orks have religious wars over whether Gork is brutal but kunnin' and Mork is kunnin' but brutal, or vice versa.
I just realized that Kork and Mork are the god versions of Kaldor Draigo.
-They walk the warp daily
-They wreck the chaos gods stuff constantly
-They’re batshit insane
-They are basically ignored by the daemons of chaos
-And the rest of the warp has to live with it
This divine loony toons duo are literally just Draigo but actually fun and entertaining.
Also I heard that there was a really really old Ork god called Tek god of intelligence, and technology. Yeah not hard to see why he doesn’t exist anymore. Regardless of whether or not any of that is true.
i would like it to be known that i watched this video and immediately afterwards watched a pipkin pippa stream where pancreas showed up in the chat.
True and factual occurrence
Gosh I’ve been waiting for this sort of video for so long. Thank you so much for making it, enjoyed hearing about my favorite two green divine doofuses. Here’s a proper WAAAAAGH to your efforts.
If Gork and Mork fight Khrone he would end up with a broken jaw and a kick in nuts.
Ive always thought GORK and MORK would make amazing knuckle tattoos
Huh, I was not expecting to see Mommy Fauna here. Nice
I absolutely love the idea of each god picking a prophet simply because of the hilarious notion that the two gods were gifting their orcs with a lovely holy war to fight, but the orcs being orcs failed to recognize that perfectly good opportunity to smash each other's heads in favor of taking their prophets and smashing up the rest of the world instead. Gork and Mork and Mindy are great.
2:26 that statement... I'm going to keep that close to me cause that how i feel with some stuff lately with the fromer and latter of that statment.
Perfect timing seeing this when I just learned about the new Ironjawz Ardboys models for AoS
0:26 ahem,
ROCK AND STONE, YEEEEEEAAAAA
Have to say I enjoyer your delivery and scripting for this one.
Some past videos have been interesting, but I've admittedly had some difficulty following them.
Here, I was able to follow everything better!
Fauna goddess of life confirmed
Fauna married to a giant blob also comfirmed. :3
oh no she is in nurlgle's basement.
The idea of two superorks flailing around the warp like a Loony-Toons fight cloud is really funny for some reason 😂
I don’t know if you can actually see how long I’ve been enjoying your content, but it’s been from the beginning!
But this one really takes the cake for me so far! I have not laughed so hard over a video in a long time!
This is epic! Thank you!
I like to think gork and mork brawl through the warp in a big dust cloud of fists and teeth flying
Imagine how funny it would be if a group of orks joined the guardsman because they are both green

Well not really, they do put up a good krumpin.
Love me gods
Love me dakka
Love me shootas
Love me fast boyz
Simple As.
Gork an Mork, fightin' round the world!
1:26 neither do the Orcs/Orks
The gods of the boyz being the strongest but also the least coordinated and targeted makes sense. The Orks are like that too in the material realm so
My theory is that Gork and Mork are like Sangunious (wrong name I know but we all know our favorite angel boi) in that he is the Kork inside of Trayzns museum.
The two share similarities that some part of them still is alive to a degree via some part staying in Stasis, the Kork is ‘alive’ but probably isn’t allowed what is to keep him alive: fight’n.
Now over time once all the Korks are dead and it’s just Orks this guy survived and basically could still communicate and so on to a degree in some form; while probably damaged by his own time being in status since since creatures can still be aware during it.
After a while the Orcs basically made him or at least his fragmented mind into two gods that are both the same in a sense.
This is similar to Horus during ‘slaves to darkness’ we see that there are multiple fragments of Horus’ soul.
This is similar to the Emperor in a a few ways.
In theory Horus couldn’t return to his clone because above 50% of his soul was destroyed to a degree.
This is similar to the Alpha legion’s primarch.
They are two souls and apparently the one that died had his soul shattered and scattered throughout his legion.
So I’m curious if the Kork is the god, what happens if the gods flesh body is returned to activity?
I can imagine the deceiver pulling some stuff and then having to fight the Ork god if this is the case.
Add to the Orks already in the collection.
I love that the music from age of mythology is playing in the background
I like the idea or the mental image of Gork and Mork, being the honey badgers of the Warhammer God’s Community
Yes, that is exactly what they are.
I hear the age of mythology music nice.
The age of mythology music was a good choice
You and Gajin Goomba spreading the Ork gospel. As someone who whose favorite faction is the Orks (but I don’t play 40k because I don’t want to choose which bills to pay), I appreciate this.
Gork and Mork are the best because orcs love winning. It is an aspect of them. It doesn’t matter because they aren’t planning to overthrow anything ever.
the timing on the blood sugar monitor was absolutely perfect. thanks Dexcom for making my morning!
I just came up with a theory about the Kroks and their devolution into modern day Orcs. What if Krorks, for all their power and relative smarts, were nevertheless unable to either create or otherwise make use of Gork and Mork? Maybe they saw the gods as a huge enough advantage for their survival, or just their ability to wage a proper krumpin' war, that they willingly devolved their species to a state that would please/empower/create Gork and Mork, thus granting them the favor of two Warp deities so strong that the Chaos Gods view them essentially as moving natural disasters. Perhaps at their level a pair of strong patron gods were ultimately more beneficial than the individual strength of a Krork as compared to a modern day Orc, so they just made the trade -off.
Personally, on the topic of the strength of the gods relative to eachother, I hold to the idea that power levels are not the main things when it comes to how gods interact. Instead, I hold the same idea that is common in the Everqueed fanfic, that gods all play by narative rules, emotional resonance, by the values and numbers of worshipers, and by the things they embody. Remember. The Warp is shaped by emotions.
That is why Slaanesh did what the other three chaos gods could not, and killed the Eldar Pantheon, even when Slaanesh is the weakest chaos god. The Eldar gods had, as gods mostly asociated with order and moderation, and who were many of them have portofolios that are anathema to the Khorne, Nurgle and Tzeentch, had a fundamental narative advantage over the chaos gods, even if they were on paper weaker by the time Slaanesh was born. But Slaanesh had the narative advantage of being the end point of Eldar mistakes, and the living embodiment of the Eldar forsaking their gods.
And this is how things go with Gork and Mork, and with Chaos. Slaanesh has no narative power or advantage over the Orks, so she cannot affect their gods. Same goes for Tzeentch to a lesser extenct. The orks dont scheme, and dont bother with such overly complicated nonsense, and dont even have the emotions to allow Tzeentch to corrupt them, which again puts the ork gods at an advantage over the changer of ways.
Orks are near perfect organisms and living weapons, unaffected by plagues and diseases, and feel no despair. They dont contemplate destiny, and are incapable of giving up, or of being nihilists. As a result, not only does Nurgle have no way of actually affecting the Ork gods thanks to the narative build around the orks in universe, but the ork gods have the perfect in universe explanation for overpowering the god of plagues.
This leaves only Khorne, who is stil limited by the lack of anger, hate and wrath the orks feel, putting him at a disadvantage over the Ork gods, even if he has the best shot.
In conclusion, this allows both the Chaos gods to be on paper stronger, and yet to have nothing to affect or hurt the Ork Gods.
0:27 ROCK AND STONE
Mork and gork punched each other to hard and the universe blipped into existence
My head cannon of Drago is basically TTS with some exceptions.
He still pals around with Leman Russ to troll demons and wreck things, but he also goes and parties with the orcs in Khorne's realm. He hallucinates that they are the remains of his battle brothers, and the orcs like him because he fights good and kills demons good. So when the orcs all fall down to go to sleep, Drago nopes out of there, and Khorne laughs while awaiting the next day fight.
The ecclesiarchy once ordered my sister to touch grass after she was caught shitposting online. It was nice.
It’s my head cannon that krorks all have posh English accents as opposed to the cockney accent the orks have
In mine too, and I hate them for it.
Mork & Gork
That being said, can’t wait to meet you, homie. Really enjoy your vids.
I like the idea that Grok and Mork could theoretically no-diff everything in the warp, but they are so busy fighting each other they just end up doing nothing much.
The Foot spell used to have a template...it was "chef's kiss"
i have no clue what ur talking abt video man but i am absolutely going to binge watch this channel
What i like about them is that one of them is kunnin' but brutal and the other is brutal but kunnin'
