Ahead of the Curve: Garrosh Hellscream (10 player) Cutting Edge: Garrosh Hellscream (10 player). Garrosh Hellscream was a former Warchief of the Horde chosen by Thrall to replace him in the wake of the Cataclysm, until he was succeeded by Vol'jin after the Siege of Orgrimmar. Throughout the history of Azeroth, few mortals have achieved greater notoriety than him. Garrosh Hellscream, in chains before an audience. The Trial of Garrosh Hellscream was a hotly-debated event, held in the Temple of the White Tiger, in Pandaria.Because of the relevance of Garrosh Hellscream, his crimes, and the recent events that transpired during the Siege of Orgrimmar, the high-profile proceedings of the trial were observed on an international scale. The Twilight's Hammer cult is more dangerous than ever. Even the elements seem at unrest, wreaking havoc on cities without reason. Thrall, Warchief of the Horde, and most powerful shaman of Azeroth, has ventured to Nagrand to study the elements, leaving Garrosh Hellscream in his stead as acting Warchief of the Horde. Garrosh Hellscream is one of the most controversial 'heroes' of the Horde in the MMORPG World Of Warcraft. Although he has yet to openly turn against his own people, he has committed a number of acts in his lengthy career that have arguably pushed him very near the category of a tyrant. He is the supporting character in Burning Crusade, Wraith Of The Lich King, and Cataclysm. He then becomes.

Before match

Jaina Proudmoore (present)
Our Alliance with the night elves held firm, but the Horde followed another path.
Despite the challenges, including my own father's attempts at war, I stood by Thrall and upheld the fragile peace.
Then he stepped down as leader of the Horde. In his place was… a monster. The first chance he had, he attacked us.

Lore[edit | edit source]

From the official World of Warcraft site:

Garrosh Hellscream, former Warchief of the Horde, is a living testament to the dangers of unchecked aggression.
Garrosh was born on the orcish homeworld of Draenor, and grew up untainted by the demonic blood that twisted the orcs who invaded Azeroth. Though he wasn't demonically influenced himself, Garrosh was haunted by his family's legacy: his father, Grom Hellscream, was the first orc to embrace corruption by drinking the blood of the pit lord Mannoroth. Garrosh lived in the shadow of his father's acts until he met Warchief Thrall, founder of the renewed Horde, who explained to the younger Hellscream how Grom ultimately gave his life to lift the demonic blood-curse, and freed his race from servitude to dark forces.
Uplifted, Garrosh joined Thrall in Azeroth and quickly became a hero of the Horde by leading a successful offensive against the Lich King. When Deathwing shattered the world, Thrall was forced to leave his throne to stop the destruction, and left Garrosh as his successor. Looking for ways to gather more resources and new territory for his people, Hellscream has initiated several brutal strikes against the Alliance, razing the city of Theramore and later clashing over the continent of Pandaria. As warchief, Garrosh's controversial actions have exposed the Horde to great scrutiny from outside--and within--his faction. With this increased scrutiny comes a greater danger of dissension and retaliation than the Horde has ever faced before.

Thrall challenged Garrosh Hellscream to mak’gora (a duel of honor) in Nagrand. This article contains spoilers from previous World of Warcraft expansions, along with biased personal opinions from the author.

Thrall has not answered for his acts towards Hellscream during the events of Mists of Pandaria and Warlords of Draenor. In the end, Thrall went against the rules of this orcish tradition of trial by combat.

Trial – ‘War Crimes’

Looking back, Thrall fought Garrosh right before the final boss event in Siege of Orgrimmar. Garrosh won, but was defeated soon after by the invading Alliance/Horde forces (player raid). With Hellscream dethroned, Thrall wishes to end Garrosh’s life. Varian Wrynn stops Thrall before delivering the final blow. Why would the Alliance leader Wrynn stop Thrall? A likely scenario is due to the respect for Hellscream’s role in the campaign against the Lich King in Northrend.

A trial commenced for Hellscream. The events of the trial are told in the novel ‘War Crimes‘ by Christie Golden. In the trial, the August Celestials would judge Hellscream’s actions since becoming Warchief of the Horde. Over the course of the trial, the Celestials did not find Hellscream worthy of a death sentence. However, Garrosh escapes to Draenor before the end of the trial. Regardless, Thrall pursues Garrosh to Draenor to pass his own judgement.

The August Celestials are ancient, wise, and powerful beings. They were the judges of the trial. Compared to the mortal races, they are likely to have better insight and at least a more neutral view. Their judgement of Hellscream did not seem to hold much value, as Thrall’s opinion did not change leading up to the mak’gora.

Mak’gora

Thrall clearly cheats versus Garrosh, similar to how Gul’Dan cheated in mak’gora against Durotan (Thrall’s father) in the Warcraft movie.

Rules of mak’gora that were breached:

  • Each participant is allowed one weapon. Thrall uses the Doomhammer mace and the Elements.
  • Body armor is forbidden. Thrall is in full-body armor.

Watch the mak’gora cinematic below:

Traditionally, mak’gora is to the death, but under Warchief Thrall’s rule it became a non-lethal combat, similiar to Warsong’s Mak’Rogahn. Participants can choose to forgo this change. However, even when operating under the old rules, the victor can choose to spare the loser’s life. Thrall only got the upper hand by cheating, and ultimately did not spare Hellscream’s life.

Fate of Garrosh Hellscream

Garrosh Hellscream is one of the more (if not the most) interesting characters to be introduced in World of Warcraft. A shame this was the end where Blizzard instead opted to go forward with Thrall’s self-righteousness.

Garrosh Death

It might be an unpopular statement, but from a Horde perspective, Garrosh Hellscream did nothing wrong. At least not if looked at from a traditional Orc point of view. After ending the Hellscream line, Thrall is not even able to commune with the elements as he once did. Thrall admits to this during the beginning of the Legion expansion (enchancement shaman Doomhammer story campaign). This is due to using the elements against Hellscream in the mak’gora. I hope Thrall can redeem himself, or face the consequences even more harshly.
