Did you SOLVE the reference from the intro of this video? I Want to give a huge shoutout to Lenny and gang at Death & Taxes and Cloze from Nihilum for giving us the inside scoop on this tale long consigned to history. Also big love to Hurricane for letting me use his footage and sending me HQ versions for the edit, what a hero.
If you enjoyed this video, consider taking a look at our website preachgaming.com. We have some behind the scenes content on there for premium supporters but more importantly videos like this just aren't possible without the support of our amazing community. Even $1 makes all the difference.
There's no shortage of crazy stories like this one from back in the day that have been lost to the sands of time, so make sure to tune in next time for when it gets real weird in TBC
The Emperor is the mt the Emperor protects.
@@R0m0n3what is this from?
Nice Unsolved Mysteries nostalgia. Didn't think you UK guys had that show. Was Robert Stack the host?
@@KevsShwaShwa its a reference to warhammer 40k which Mike was recently getting into during our subathon last month, we happened to have the skeleton lying around from a previous video. The emperor in 40k is basically a skeleton corpse on a throne so it was appropriate
Nah, it's a mystery that remains unsolved to me ;) Great video
This is the type of content Preach was made for, his natural storytelling prowess shines through and makes for a supremely entertaining video.
Thank you Preach for providing my dinner entertainment!
Totally! It's the one type of content I always watch from Mike.
It got my sub
@@Zanaro97after all these years 😂
Playing WoW during these first formative years was truly something special. I don't think a game could recreate what we felt during these first couple years.
absolutely true, and I contribute this to the fact taht back then we did not have very good centralized knowledgebase websites (like wowhead is now) and addons were not as sophisticated. There's no chance we will ever get the same feeling playing mmo, as whe n WoW was in its virgin years, in vanilla
You're right. It really had the vibe of an exciting, virtual world, and not "just" a game and a gameworld. Everything you did was something brand new. That still is technically the case for new MMOs as well, but in a way - many have done it before, in World of Warcraft.
Playing the game in its early days was (sort of) like playing the old adventure games from Sierra back in the 90's with internet and no walkthrough an alt/tab away. Which I think really helped cement the feeling of discovery and excitement.
No game ever will, because you'll never be that age again.
I think even if a game ever tried and successfully became like this, the people from our generation wouldn't have that same feeling we had 17 years ago. Being that age and that mindset was so amazing atleast for me.
It's such a small footnote. But the lengths Vodka had to go to in order to kill twin emperors should have given them the hint that it was impossible. Iirc vodka was accused of cheating because they ran 5 tanks 35 healers and killed it over hours. My understanding is the twin emperors are why enrage timers were added to the game. Vodka was an amazing guild and its cool that Landsoul has left a footprint of them behind
It is still an amazing guild :)
@@Invhytas are they still going? I haven't kept up since they left alterac mountains.
@@Anoradord Yep, killed fyrakk world #21. They're taking it a bit more casually nowadays but they're definitely still gamers.
My vanilla guild killed Twin Emps the regular way, took like 13 mins
do you have a source I could check out for this Vodka 5 tank 35 healer raid composition? I can't find any discussion about it on google
Great to see another Legacy video. Love the Unsolved Mysteries theme haha. Would love to see a Legacy of the Druid next ❤
Mike, Chris and everyone else involved.
This video is is amazing, the format and storytelling was spot on. I'm really looking forward to the next part.
Also I'm so glad to see you embrace the grim darkness of the 41st millennium
I miss Andy aka Ghost. The legacy video wrath of the lich king is 1 of the best I think.
Where did he go?
This reminded me about how I used to see a female tauren warrior named Edna in Might in Org all the time with Quel'sarrar, and how when she got Thunderfury I had to whisper them and congratulate them. Vicarious living indeed, it blew my mind just seeing KTZ's loot pool and talking about ilevels and base DPS of the weapons with my biology classmates. Different times, man
Small world. Edna was my guild leader of Defiance on Skywall. Outside of raids, he would sit in Orgrimmar all day, every day while chattin' it up in vent.
Oh shit, Skywall? my friends Jabin, Nekriga, Logal played that server back in the day and I'm pretty sure they were in defiance
I need to know more. Is edna still around? im invested in this story! @DHGroove
@@elderfro5307 I lost touch with most of them during TBC when I xferred off Skywall. I think I ran across him a couple of times during BFA because of xrealm layering. No clue if he plays anymore
@@DHGrooveany updates?
'The legacy of' videos are why i'm subscribed to preach
I agree. Even if it’s blatantly obvious he didn’t write them and he’s just clocking in.
@@Hanging_Brain??? Do you think he pawned all of the writing off to his team or something? lol
@@Hanging_Brain An absolutely baseless assumption lol
@@Hanging_Brain Dumbest comment ive seen for a while
@@jaymzOG something like that yeah. I dont think this was his idea. We can agree to disagree. Well i can at least.
I still thought it was a great video, i enjoyed it.
We need more of this, guys! What a fun watch.
Hands down one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done! Thank you for this, I truly enjoyed it.
Well worth the wait. Well done Preach.
Big thank you to the team for the video.
These are always a treat to watch and are truly timeless.
Cheers.
Awesome video. As someone who was around back then caught up in following the race, this brough back so many memories. Can't wait for some TBC stuff!
So happy you're doing this. There's so much newer players don't know about the legacy of raiding in WoW and some of these stories are going to absolutely crazy
Insane this came out today, I just randomly decided to listen to the other Legacy of videos at work earlier. Thanks for the new one Mike.
Great video Mike and Team! really enjoyed it, thank you!
Great video Preach & team! Fantastic production! Keep them coming
That was awesome, love those type of videos and very well presented. Can't wait for the next one!
This video was freaking amazing!!! I have goosebumps and can't wait for the follow up. Massive shoutout to everyone involved. Soo good!!! 🌟🌟🌟
Preach, i always loved these wow history video. Looking forward to hopefully more!
This was so well done and nostalgic! Thanks Preach, wonderful video!
Loved this series. Cant wait to see more. Think it was amazing you were able to chat with the some of the old D&T members. I remember spamming F5 for any scrap of info you could find about how the guilds were doing.
I don't really comment on UA-cam videos, but this one was really freakin good. I enjoyed learning and hearing about it all and I'm glad you and the team are back on these
This was such a good video, so well done! I cannot wait for the next video!
Really well done. This was great!
Great video and even better Unsolved Mysteries beging clip! Loved it all!
Love this idea for a series, Preach! Had no idea about this. Can't believe what happened.
Interesting to hear the perspective and nuances of WoW's RWF from someone who was involved or there at the time. This will make a classic documentary for RWF games in general. Lot of WoW nuances and jargon but I do appreciate you simplifying it to laymen terms. Excited for the next part.
sitting down watching a preach legacy video on a saturday morning is something I haven't done in a while, I missed these
i've been waiting for videos like this for a long time, ty preach
I love this. Nice, more of this type of retro-y stuff pleeeeaaase!
That was amazing to watch I’m looking forward to more behind the scenes stuff for raids in bc :)
Can't wait for this series to take off. This is good stuff preacho
Such an awesome video once again. The Preach vanilla stuff just hits different. Amazing content!
This is amazing. Please more. Much more
Wow! I've been waiting for videos like this for ages!!!
"As im sitting here with the Emperor of Man"
you almostt made me spit out my drink haha, hyped for the rest of the video! Love seeing a new legacy video!
Love the video man i've been watching you for such a long time and as always you don't disapoint keep it up with the amazing content, hope that you continue for a long time much love
Loved the video!!! I would love to see more of this type of content :)
bro this is so badass to be able to see preach continue to make some of the best WoW content and this time he has hair!
Phenomenal video. Can't wait for next.
AH "Chef Kiss", what an Video. It it is really nice to see the Legacy series returning. Really nice work of the whole team preach!
The amount of Preach I watch nearly daily is wild. Favorite WoW (and other MMO) UA-camr.
Drama time alone has replay ability that is unrivaled. Thanks folks!
This video was amazing thanks preach felt unwell and down and this perked me up a bit.
So much memories coming back whilst running around an as an overpowered tier-1 shaman 8 piece did the work in healing in naxx. Amazing content preach, keep it up - love it!
I haven't clicked a video this fast in months, always a pleasure to see your WoW history videos.
Crazy series! You've outdone yourself preach!
I do love your longer videos like this :)
Great vid preach, great to see content like this again! - Bubs
Great video! cant wait for more documentary style videos from the Team.
Today its kinda crazy to think that all the top guilds back then was Horde
I already knew most of this story but this video was so well made i happily sat through it all again and learned some new info too
Holy shit!!!! Im so happy the legacy videos are back!!!!
Amazing Video! I love these legacy type Videos.
Great Video! Preach , great story teller.
Well put together! Gaming was such a different time back then, i do miss those days.
I loved the Unsolved Mysteries reference! Well done!
Gracias brother necesitaba alguien que hiciera una serie de videos así.
Such a cool piece of gaming history I had no idea about awesome vid!
missed the legacy vids, absolutely loved this.
Dude this was a sick one!!! 👊
great vid! nice to see more history vids
Total injustice for D&T, have to feel horrible for them. I'd be upset as Nihilum too, honestly; it cheapens what could've been the most legendary achievement in WoW's history. Sort of poetic & appropriate for Blizzard to fumble that moment with a bug.
thats why i could care less for all these epeens...thats why we made premades in pvp back then and owned nax geared noobs
This is fantastic can't wait for the TBC video!
This is great. What a great way to tribute the community of this game. Blood sweat and nerd tears. Thanks for solidifying so many hazy memories
This is supreme content! Absolutely fantastic. Thank you.
Great video! Love it!
Great video, incredible storytelling!
I remember watching that D & T Sapphiron video and to this day, "Cold as Ice" still plays in my head whenever I go visit that boss.
As someone who never saw the inside of anywhere beyond Onyxia's Lair and Molten Core, I most definitely am not in that 2%. But I remember well the excitement of following things via forums and looking forward to videos being released. This bit of history brought memories flooding back of those days. It's hard to overstate how big an impact WoW had on us gamers back then
8:56 I'm proud to say I am part of that 2%. We managed to down 4 bosses in naxx. we got the instructor, Anoob as we called him, Grand Widow Faerlina and Maexxna. I don't remember we killed any other, I dont think we did, but I'm proud of what we achieved, we were a semi-casual guild that tried going a bit hardcore towards the end of vanilla.
Same thing! Was on US-Hyjal during that time and we made it to Patchwerk which was our guild breaker. Guild broke up after many squabbles and fights around Patchwerk. I ended up stopping and returning during TBC and haven't stopped since. Vanilla to the end of TBC was a magical time for me of exploration, the unknown, and just having fun. Wotlk, while I loved it, was the immediate change I saw of something different...META rotations and clear as fast as possible. However, still love the game!
Same, our guild cleared a good chunk of naxxramas. We ended up getting stuck on Thaddius though and gave up before we were able to get to 4 horseman.
Loving this, feels like old school Preach :D
Cracking video!
Love the dive into history!
Really great to see this! Thank you. I was playing at this time but as you said it was hard to follow this high end stuff. I’m not even sure I knew high level raids were even happening because also as you said there was so much other content that I was keeping myself busy with
Naxx was a glorious time to be a raider back then. We only ever cleared up to Sapphiron, then TBC launched - but you mentioning guilds snatching every tank on the server it was REAL. We went into naxx with about 6 tanks in our guild, 4 really... we ended up at 4HM with about 13 ready to go tanks lmao. We unintentionally destroyed quite a few guilds and even snatched up 2 thunderfuries in the process which was huge because our server only had about 4 of them.
My favorite naxx memory though? Our guild leader getting pissed off because the WoW South Park episode came out and over half our raid were just watching that instead and wiping on trash repeatedly lmao
Such a good video! Feels like times of a mythic past haha
I love this kinda format. Great video.
I love this as content. Much appreciated!
I have never played wow but i love this. Great stories well told transcend their target audience. Great video preach!
I loved this video - it would probably be a ton of work but I'd love more raid history if you could put the videos together!
Fantastic video!
Love your work, thanks for storytime xox
Outstanding production!
Nice to hear Afterlife. Ran with them in EQ for a while, including the first break into Fear Plane.
Great video!
Thats just an Awesome video overall. Thanks.
Great video. Thanks very much
im really impressed how much info Prech dug up from almost 20 years ago
This is awesome. I remember the guilds but had no idea the story behind it
Keep up the amazing content!
This brings back memories, I played an Elemental Shaman (Voltan) in the guild Celebrity (EU-Balnazzar) in TBC, we got a fair few world top 10's. Was a different time back then. Shoutout to any guildies reading this. Also to the late night Nihilum ventrilo chatters
I remember my mate telling me about the launch of Naxaramus and the attacks on the cities. I started like 3 months before TBC launched so I missed all the fun. (Saw the attacks when Wotlk launched though)
A new Legacy video after all this time?! Let's gooooo
Missed content like this Preach
Back to what you started with. Enjoy this content keep it up.
This was a great video. Wish you were still gaming in WoW but I understand. Right now is a really good time btw
Great vid, would love to see this same format for the BC raids! i started wow at the very end of vanilla, god i miss the BC worlk days, havent played since the end of cata. I remember clearing 25man icc heroic with my arcane mage, great memories
There's such a huge difference between the mysterious legendary guilds in vanilla like Death & Taxes and current top guilds.. no streaming, no interviews, no UA-cam channels, no armory.. just a guild name and names of some of the best players.. nobody knew anything about them..
Wow, I remember hearing about the legendary Death & Taxes progress through Naxx while it was happening and then they just stopped, but had no idea what had happened until now. That's some bull.
They were on my server, Stonemaul. There was a guild better than them, A team but they took over during tbc. Remember seeing them in iron forge decked out in naxx gear.
How were they better if they weren't making near the progress D and T were and no one knew about them?
