Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: Early in my life, I did not know who I truly was… or who my people were.
- Thrall: Everything around me was defined by others—like my master, the Alliance lord, Blackmoore.
- Thrall: When he bade me to eat, I ate… to sleep? I slept… And to fight? I fought with all my heart.
Intro
- Thrall: Yes, master.
- Blackmoore: Come witness the might of my pet orc!
- Blackmoore: These people are paying good money, Thrall. I trust you'll put on a show for them?
Exchange
- Thrall: If I don't keep fighting, Blackmoore won't be pleased…
- Blackmoore: I trained this orc foundling to become the ultimate warrior!
- Blackmoore: Would you believe me if I told you he also likes to read?
- Taretha: Thrall, this is too much for you.
- Taretha: He is wrong to treat you this way.
Victory
- Thrall: Yes, master.
- Thrall: I did my best, and it still was not enough for him. You may be right…
- Blackmoore: Well, I'm off to celebrate and spend your earnings! Rest up for your next match, Thrall.
- Taretha: He's gone! This is your chance to escape!
Loss
- Blackmoore: You owe me everything! And this is how you choose to repay me…
Idle
- Blackmoore: Some people keep pet dogs or cats, but I prefer orcs. They eat a lot though.
- Blackmoore: After the Second War, most orcs ended up in camps. However, they make great entertainment!
- Blackmoore: This orc has been trained to be perfectly obedient. I'm certain he's not faking it. At all.
HeroPower
- Blackmoore: Bring another challenger!

EmoteResponse

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: With Taretha's aid, I managed to leave, although she paid dearly for helping me.
- Thrall: Despite that, I reconnected with my people and discovered my true heritage. I learned I was the son of the late Durotan, leader of the Frostwolf Clan.
- Thrall: His shaman, Drek'Thar, had survived the wars, and he began teaching me the ways of the elements.
Intro
- Thrall: I am ready.
- DrekThar: Prepare to meet the spirits of the natural world.
Exchange
- Thrall: I… do not know.
- Thrall: I ask for strength and power against my foes.
- Thrall: Give swiftness and stamina to me and my allies. Ensure we never tire in battle!
- Thrall: Burn through my enemies! Never let my courage fail!
- Thrall: To heal my wounds and replenish my strength.
- Thrall: Preserve my connection to all living things—a power beyond words.
- DrekThar: What would you ask of the Spirit of Earth?
- DrekThar: Knowing is part of the test.
- DrekThar: It is granted.
- DrekThar: What would you ask of the Spirit of Air?
- DrekThar: It is done.
- DrekThar: What would you ask of the Spirit of Fire?
- DrekThar: So be it.
- DrekThar: What would you ask of the Spirit of Water?
- DrekThar: Very well. One element remains…
- DrekThar: What would you ask of the greatest of all, the Spirit of the Wilds?
Victory
- Thrall: I thought I would feel so mighty… but instead, I am humbled.
- DrekThar: All of the Spirits will aid you.
- DrekThar: That is what makes you worthy.
Loss
- DrekThar: What a shame. I had thought you were doing so well.
Idle
- DrekThar: It requires patience to become a true shaman.
- DrekThar: The orc shaman are older than the warlocks. Our ways are the ways of the clans before the Horde.
- DrekThar: Sometimes the spirits will not answer your call, and you must be prepared for that.
EmoteResponse
- DrekThar: Look to the spirits, not to me.

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: My days with Drek'Thar and the Frostwolf Clan passed peacefully. But I heard tales of an orc warrior who had never been captured—Grommash Hellscream.
- Thrall: I wanted to join him in liberating the rest of our people. However, a mysterious stranger insisted on opposing me…
Intro
- Thrall: I was raised by humans! We know things they do not. We must not be bound by fear!
- Orgrim2: Hellscream is a fool. We have all seen what the humans can do… the bloodshed…
Exchange
- Thrall: I will not be silent!
- Thrall: So long as one orc is in danger, we all are!
- Thrall: Our people must be free!
- Orgrim2: See if you can take me, whelp!
- Orgrim2: The Frostwolves are right to hide from the humans, far from the danger.
- Orgrim2: Why must we suffer so much for so little? For valor? Bah.
Victory
- Thrall: Second? But… I beat you, stranger.
- DrekThar: He is no stranger, Thrall.
- Orgrim2: Long has it been since anyone could challenge me. I have found my second in command!
- Orgrim2: My name, son of Durotan, is Warchief Orgrim Doomhammer!
Loss
- Orgrim2: I wonder… was I wrong to come here to meet you?
Idle
- Orgrim2: You are only just learning your history.
- Orgrim2: Should the orcs revolt, it will mean another war…
- Orgrim2: Do not ask me about my own clan… Theirs was a hard fate.
HeroPower
- Orgrim2: Yes, face my hammer!
- Orgrim2: Can you stand up to me?
- Orgrim2: How much fight can you bring?
EmoteResponse
- Orgrim2: There is a spark in you. Good.

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: It was a test, and I had passed. Together, the Warchief and I fought to free our people.
- Thrall: When he fell in battle, he charged me to take up his place—and his hammer. Once the orcs were liberated, we sailed to Kalimdor to begin anew.
- Thrall: But I realized the orcs had more than one master. With one gone, another came to claim us… the demons.
Intro
- Thrall: Your hold on him ends now!
- Mannoroth: I knew you would come, and I see you brought the mighty Hellscream.
Exchange
- Thrall: It matters not. I helped my people escape from the camps, and I will help them escape from you!
- Mannoroth: His blood is mine, as is your whole cursed race!
- Mannoroth: You made the pact willingly, Hellscream.
- Mannoroth: You chose to drink my blood… to bind yourself to me.
- Mannoroth: And you, "Warchief"… you were not even there.
Victory
- Thrall: You have freed yourself, old friend… You've freed us all.
Loss
- Mannoroth: The Horde has always belonged to ME.
Idle
- Mannoroth: So much hatred in your heart, Hellscream… we are the same.
- Mannoroth: I know what burns within your soul.
- Mannoroth: All of this is futile, as it always has been.
HeroPower
- Mannoroth: I am the rage in your heart.
- Mannoroth: Feel the fury of your thoughts.
- Mannoroth: Stupid, pitiful creatures…
EmoteResponse
- Mannoroth: Ahahahaha…

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: Our triumph heralded a new era. As Warchief, I kept peace with the Alliance, while listening to the many voices within the Horde.
- Thrall: But eventually, a new voice called to me. The cries of the elements drew me from my position as warchief…
- Thrall: I passed the mantle of leadership to Grommash's son, Garrosh Hellscream. And I left to discover what had caused the elements' suffering.
- Thrall: It was Deathwing. Years after his defeat, the great corrupted Aspect made his return.
Intro
- Thrall: Your madness must come to an end, Earth-Warder!
- Deathwing: I will tear your world apart…
Exchange
- Thrall: Aspects, I call upon your aid!
- Deathwing: You shall burn as Azeroth itself does…
- Deathwing: I am inevitable… indomitable!
- Deathwing: Your armor means nothing, your faith even less!
- Ysera: Alas, to see a fellow Dragon Aspect fall to such corruption…
- Ysera: The rest of us shall support you as we can.
- Ysera: We shall channel our power into the Dragon Soul!
- Alexstrasza: I will cleanse whatever corruption I can.
- Alexstrasza: Deathwing's summoning of the final Cataclysm will destroy all life on Azeroth. Quickly, we must interrupt him.
- Alexstrasza: He is completely mad.
Victory
- Thrall: BEGONE!
- Ysera: Strike true, Thrall! This moment can never be undone!
- Alexstrasza: We dragon aspects have fulfilled our great purpose.
- Alexstrasza: You are Azeroth's true guardians and the future of this world is in your hands.
Loss
- Deathwing: I will destroy all other creatures who yet draw breath…
Idle
- Deathwing: Your kingdoms crumble beneath my rage!
- Deathwing: Pain… agony… you do not know them as I do!

HeroPower

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: After Deathwing's defeat, I continued my work as a shaman alongside the members of the Earthen Ring. With my beloved Aggra by my side, the days went quickly.
- Thrall: I did not see the storm brewing back on Kalimdor, where Garrosh unleashed his cruelty and might upon Theramore.
- Thrall: As horrible as he had been, Jaina's desire for vengeance disturbed me even more…
Victory
- Thrall: I pray you will recover from this one day, Jaina…
Loss
- Jaina: We could have had peace, Thrall. But you threw it all away.
Idle
- Jaina: I never should have trusted you. How could I have been so naïve?
- Jaina: You knew Garrosh was dangerous. His father could not control his rage either!
- Jaina: We both came to this land to start over. Now your people thrive, and mine mourn their dead.
HeroPower
- Jaina: Suffer as Theramore did!
- Jaina: Take responsibility!
- Jaina: Everything is gone. Everything!
EmoteResponse
- Jaina: I won't hear this!
Siege of Orgrimmar
Instead of gaining wisdom, he has lost his honor. You must be the one to remove him from command.

Quote From Out of Cards PreMission
- Thrall: Though overwhelmed by anger, Jaina had cut to the heart of the matter. Garrosh had gone down a dark path.
- Thrall: I next heard of his trespasses from my own former counselor, Vol'jin. I went to him. I saw Garrosh's malice with my own eyes.
- Thrall: And though I resisted it with every part of my being, I knew I had to face him.
Victory
- Thrall: You disappoint me, Garrosh. You are not worthy of your father's legacy.
- Thrall: Leadership is a heavy burden—too heavy for some to bear. I had no desire to take it up again. I needed something more…
- Thrall: When I was young, I believed I had no family, and when I learned who they were, they had already passed.
- Thrall: But, even if your family is gone, it is never too late to make your own.
Loss
- Garrosh: Under my leadership, the Horde will conquer all…
Idle
- Garrosh: You once promised me a great destiny because of my father… Now you betray me.
- Garrosh: I will never be the leader you were. I will be more!
- Garrosh: You admired my father for the same reasons you reprimand me—our rage, our strength!
HeroPower
- Garrosh: You are no more than a traitor now!
- Garrosh: I answer to NO ONE!
- Garrosh: Behold my strength!
EmoteResponse
- Garrosh: You have much to learn…
Comments
That Frostwolf Thrall portrait looks amazing.
Well, looks like Thrall's story ends at Pandaria so we don't get that final fight where Garrosh dies.
The final deck also misses lighting bolt.
Huh? If Garrosh dies in Pandaria, who is the person that kills Magtheridon in the WoW:Warlords of Draenor cinematic?
Sorry I don't play WoW at all.
During his trial, Garrosh managed to escape to the alternate universe of Dreanor. There he founded the Iron Horde to invade Azeroth and conquer Dreanor.
It always becomes messy when there is a alternate universe in play. But Outland is messed up Dreanor in our own reality.
Garrosh was killed by Thrall in a Mak'gora at the tail end of warlords of Draenor. Basically Thrall used the elements to utterly destroy Garrosh.
They had a fight earlier during the events in Pandaria. Needless to say Garrosh was eventually beaten, then put on trial. He then escaped to an alternate Draenor with a bronze dragon whose name escape me.
Also, the one that killed Magtheridon in Warlords is none other than Grom, from an alternate dimension. Obviously his son played a pivotal role there.
Kairozdormu (a.k.a. Kairoz)
That's Mannoroth actually. He was the greatest pit lord of all time and superior to Magtheridon.
