Warcraft's STUPIDEST Dragon

Paranoia is a hell of a drug - I hope they re-polish his lore and really focus on how paranoid he was from hatching since he was an experiment, and how he does reflect some of his father unknowingly in his assumptions. And the fact that, above all, he is a young soul trying to understand all that is in the span of 12 years.

Sir, you have been making videos about warcraft lore, and now you're claiming not to be a nerd? Read GOT grandma Tyrell is badass!🤣🤣

how dare you disrespect our boi like this

I always wondered
Shouldn't alternate universe Horde from Draenor invade the alternate universe Azeroth?
Like, Garrosh was teleported there using the hourglass, but when they invade they use the Dark Portal, not the same hourglass

So this guy is like the leader of 2 dragons? He said all the other black dragons were killed so how is that a “dragon flight”?

Reasons i hate nefarian / dragonflight lore. We now face literally the void and theyve been useless done nothing to defend azeroth havent been in a single quest and just literally said "thank you for our powers.... what do you mean we gotta use em?"

Tweek is crazy lmaoooo

"Were he discovers what it is to be the leader of the black dragonflight"
Me smiling from the future

Hang on hang on, did Wrathion stab N'Zoth with Xal'atath?

How to train your Dragonflight in theatres now!

I'll be honest, i rely on videos like these for interesting lore. I play the game to get gear and ignore the reading of quests.

So to summarize...

Anduin is wise but stupid,
Wrathion is foolish but smart,
And Garrosh is a dick

Stupidest dragon: Wrathion. Second stupidest dragon: Kairoz

This video pops up for me randomly while playing wow and I listen to the entire thing every time... haha such great production

To be honest he is one of the more interesting characters. His stupid actions are exactly what I would expect of a teenager with vast power lol. Too bad they neutered him in dragonflight.

this story is just a over complicated sloppy mess of a copy paste to what happened in warcraft 3. fan fiction.

He’s so sexy I don’t even care about his personality. Will do any quest for him 🫶

Garrosh just keeps being an absolute giga chad.

It just shows that even powerful creatures like dragons have to grow up and make mistakes along the way. I loved that quest line so much and love the character development. I am guessing the only reason he seems stupid is because most of the other, wiser dragons have been around forever. Wraithion grew up without the guidance other dragons would have. Could you imagine if we left a human toddler to raise themself how that might turn out? Just makes his character a bit more realistic.

I belive that after Wrath of the lich king. A curse of stupidity was as unleash into BLizzard that made all expansions afterwards be silly and dumb.

Know what im tired of? Seeing all the awesome Horde leaders go evil, die, or just go into hiding. Thrall (becomes isolationist), Vol'Jin (dies), Sylvannas (goes evil), Saurfang (dies), Garrosh (goes evil & dies), its like damn wtf alliance losses Varryn and thats it and Telandrya (spelling) goes evil for a sec and then goes back to good. Clear biased.

So warlords of draenor, Legion and War within all happen because Wrathion go derp?

Counterpoint.
He's hot though

[TL;DR]Cut the guy a break. He's an abused child who became a king. Put yourself in his shoes and think about what you'd do after being constantly abused as a child. Remember, he's 100% conscious in egg form, remembers all of it, and for a probably good portion of it was being abused by an old god. Probably, mentally, even in...that way we don't want to mention, because it's an old god. The only thing it cares about is breaking another child, and when you're so evil that you'll literally break children down to have them commit genocide, do you really think...that method...would be off the table? Do you really think it wouldn't happen? Yeah, I'm asking the hard questions here.
I think the book was really out there in the way Wrathy's character was portrayed. He's not really stupid, he's a child. An actual child, who is sitting over a practically dead dragon flight, who wants to do what's right but literally isn't old enough to understand what's wrong with his plans. He has an incredibly small pool of experience and the only others he could turn to in order to learn anything about even his own kind he views as cruel wardens who just want to imprison him. By all examinations of WoW dragon lifespans, which can last for THOUSANDS of years, where only the elves can actually comprehend such a scale of time to exist through, who he couldn't turn to one way or another to learn anything either because they'd probably imprison him for what he is, the child that was tormented by a dark old one from birth. Then he was freed from that torment only to be imprisoned, basically, by the RDF and would receive no better treatment from any other DF. The only person who he could ACTUALLY turn to was a random rouge PC who has no idea on how to manage such a situation to begin with, and then he had to go out and try his best to prevent the world from getting ripped apart or corrupted. ALL OF THIS WITHIN THE MIND OF A CHILD WHO HAD SERIOUS TRUST AND DADDY ISSUES. ALL BY A KID WHO WAS LITERALLY ABUSED. While nobody can actually speak to what the actual plans of the RDF was with him, to teach or to manipulate, the path he chose was actually a better path to take by all accounts because, at the very least, he actually got to choose freedom. By the time of the dragonflight expac, he'd be a dragon teen at best, a very knowledgeable one, sure, but still a teen. This fact wasn't overlooked in this video, as he was portrayed as a whelping multiple times. So, put yourself in the shoes of an abused child. Would you, after being constantly verbally abused, then taken aside by CPS, basically, and then getting told "He'll be the poster child to help the world." want to do anything anyone else told you to do? You were being hurt nearly every single day. Broken down, ground away, and now they want to use you? Now somebody else just wants you to do what they tell you? Give the guy a break. I can assure you, if there's anything every single character and player in WoW should be doing, it's not lecturing, it's not punching, though I'm giving Anduin a pass because they're in similar situations, and it's certainly not more commands. It's fucking therapy. That boy needs therapy of the sort that would shatter worlds because holy fucking shit, his life was FUCKED, and a good portion of it wasn't his fault.

OH MY GOD THE SHAPE OF THE DRAGON EGGS. I CANNOT IMAGINE LAYING ONE OF THOSE KNIFE BALLS 💀

Hey at least Wrathion isn't as badly written as Faerin.

Poor tong

Yes, there are times that Blizzard removes parts of the game that seem important to understanding the lore, because while the content is current retail and patch, it's wrapped up in some game loot mechanics crap that will change. They should restore some of these quest series so that we can all see the story. The cloaks need not continue to be legendary, but transmogs or perhaps heirlooms; or just don't bother with special loot, yet keep it in the game. Wrathgate and the retaking of Undercity should have stayed, too. Some of the xpac and patch intros should remain in game as optional play, as well—if no place else, then at least in Chromie Time.

The funniest thing is that Emberstrike is still technically alive and in the game so he is the actual last black dragon lol

Dragonflight: Lgbt/woke propaganda. Notice too they are making main NPC's darker skinned? ... they added lgbt forced quests too. They make you do these quests to help sodomites have gay fake weddings

Oh Mists of Pandaria, what a... written story

And when anduin and Weargion met just when their romance started!!

i wish there was a part 2 to this for DragonFlight so he can mention the pebble

I love my snarky BFF Wrathion. As you said he is flawed but complex which makes him quite interesting.

Never liked Wrathion

"[...] but it´s okay because I´m sexy now!" just makes me laugh everytime I hear it xD

I will admit, I'm not keen on Blizzard kinda gatekeeping the overall story by forcing the players toward other mediums for the full understanding. I have zero issues with comics, novels and so on, but if there is a correlation then it would make sense to have some segments of those other mediums in the game... The other sources feel like money grabbing all the more like this...

I think vanilla wow was just easier, the story was simplistic, the goals were pretty clear, and other than reading quest text, it was straightforward. Blizzard might be trying to update us on wtf is going on but I'm not sure if people are interested anymore because the iron has grown cold...

They really did make Wrathion hot. How'd he go from the annoying little turd to THAT? But then the same could be said for Anduin - though I'm so sad that they've now made him look like every other male character in the game. I loved his long hair and clean-shaven face. Stop giving every man a beard, Blizzard!!
Funny video though - and gave me parts of Wrathion's story that I didn't know. I'm two years late, but thanks!

Wrathion's rant about Wrynn's clemency is a close paraphrase of Napoleon's reaction to how little Britain took for itself after the coalition it lead defeated him.

Dumbest*

Wrathion yelling dramatically, then turning into this chubby cute whelp and fluttering away gets me every time 😂

"Does it work? Of course it fucking doesn't" garrosh punches tyros I spit out my drink xD

Sexy wrathion threw me off, I thought he was a completely different character at first.

Why does MMO butcher lore?
Because rushed MMO content.

Any thoughts on coming back to this topic after Dragonflight? Is he still stupid?

Look at him
He is an immigrant dragon

in wrathion's defense, he's a baby by dragon standards

if i was dragonspawn or drakonid i would stay away from this dragon he is too childish for my likeing he also a little brat black dragons freak me out anyway they torture people or beat you to death if you become a slave to them or become a lab rat in awful experiments or turn you into a dragon monster that goes insane from all the torture and pain you endured
