Tirion: Good job!
Garrosh: Those mother fuckers tried to kill us all!
Tirion: The gnome acted on his own accord! Now, you will fight the grand knights of the Argent-
Garros: Nah nah fuck that. Them bitches tried to kill us
Varian:Man that blame shit aint cool, my boys gona sort you out.

After the second boss in ToC, what is the Alliance's justification for sending down their faction champs?
Because when you play alliance it's like
Jaraxxus: bleerrrgggghhhhhhh (that's a death sound)
Tirion: Good job!
Garrosh: Those mother fuckers tried to kill us all!
Tirion: The gnome acted on his own accord! Now, you will fight the grand knights of the Argent-
Garros: Nah nah fuck that. Them bitches tried to kill us, I demand they fight my homeboys.
Thrall: /facepalm
Tirion: Okay whatever.
Faction Champs: bleerrrgggghhhhhhh
Tirion: Good job, stupid. You just made your side weaker because of your pettiness. Now, bring out the twin hos!
Btw, I'm so glad Garrosh steps in there. The last thing I want is more jousting, especially in a 25 man setting.
Here's what happens:
Jaraxxus: bleerrrgggghhhhhhh (that's a death sound)
Tirion: Good job!
King Dicknose: They said mean things about us!
Tirion: This is no time for petty disagreements! Now, you will fight the grand knights of the Argent-
King Dicknose: Nah nah fuck that. They called us names! I demand they fight my homeboys.
Jaina: /facepalm
Tirion: Okay whatever.

I just want to comment that the "Sylvanas just wants to ensure the propagation of her race" line of thinking is retarded.
"What are we if not slaves to this torment?"
Oh yeah.
Sounds like she wants to spread the love.
No, she's bitter about being undead and wants the earth razed and salted.
And the fact that Thrall has to depend on the forsaken and turn his back on their atrocities in order to get a better foothold in Northrend? That just makes him a shitty ass leader. Same with his tolerance of Garrosh.
You realize they just put a bunch of sound bites from WC3 when you click on heroes, right?
Same with Thrall. And Tyrande. Even Malfurion (or his image or whatever)
And why does it make him a shitty leader? It's the fucking definition of an alliance. A merging of efforts or interests by persons, families, states, or organizations.
By humoring Garrosh he is fueling the fires of war that he had worked to stop. Garrosh is the worst kind of warhawk and he's going to lead the Horde to their doom.
And by turning a blind eye on all the murder, torture, and 'experimentation' that goes on, unchecked, in the undercity, that makes Thrall a bad leader. "You guys are undead nazis but we need your boats so I guess what you did was a bad thing and you shouldn't do it again."
Varian Wyrn was right!

Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
That's really stupid. Atleast Garrosh kinda has a point.
King Dickbag is a moron. I liked it better when Onyxia was in charge.
Actually Halfmex is just being silly. Garrosh says the alliance gnome tried to kill us. Wrynn says he doesn't need a demon to kill us. Tyrion says the gnome was doing his own thing. It's the same situation.
edit: Though Wrynn is still a douchenozzle for saying scrub every time one of us dies.

Hm, at least in 10 man, Wrynn's argument is "they besmirched our honor, I demand retribution!" and that's why he sends in his cronies. I don't recall anything about an accusation of an assassination attempt by the Gnome to kill Thrall/Garrosh.

So a blue said that Varimathras will be getting replaced by someone with a "B" name...
... speculation points to Nathanos Blightcaller, Balnazzar, and even Bolvar (since he'll be explained in 3.3)
Thoughts, ideas? I'd love to see Blightcaller, the human hunter, brought back to a role of importance.

Also, I did some peeking around and found Mal'Ganis (his human form) tucked away in a hidden Scarlet Onslaught cave in Icecrown. Is there a quest for him?

Yep, there's a chain starting with the ebon blade outpost tucked into the side of the cliff north of that island.
I want to start a melee dps alt, but I am having trouble deciding! I have a 60 rogue from Vanilla, she hasn't been touched since BC launched. However, Enh. Shaman look fun as hell. Thoughts? (Also I want a Dwarf Shaman :V)

Really depends on what you're looking for out of your melee DPS.
Rogues - very strong single target DPS, don't plan on soloing many elite mobs
Shaman - lot of flexibility, better survivability
Death Knight - very strong AoE or single target DPS, very high survivability, can solo most elite quest mobs
I did that quest recently and we killed him before he transformed....

The thing I was shocked about was that the Faction Champs fight was a fight to the death.
Honestly, I'd rather use those faction champs than my raid. Have you seen their abilities? 5k DPS hellfire? Oh gosh.

I'm just wondering why Thrall, Slyvanas and Jaina haven't gone and three manned him yet. With their 100k melee hits.
Why send important people when you can just send wave after wave of disposable adventurers?

Because they are important and you are not.
Think how important they would be if they just took 5 minutes to kill one of the greatest threats their world has ever known. Thrall probably wouldn't even break a sweat. As long as Arthas doesn't think ahead and destroy the elevators. Thrall'd be pretty annoyed if he has to summon another massive wind spirit just to move him around.

I can solo most elites on my rogue it just takes planning

Depends on the elite largely, but basically if it's A) immune to stuns or takes longer than 15 seconds to kill (or 30 if you're specced far enough into Sub to get Prep), a rogue's not doing it solo.

So quick question for those of you who play the Auction House successfully: does what Boubouille (or however you spell it) describe on MMO Champ's front page work (with auctioneer and that other mod that he lists) as he says it does?
I'm really hoping that the normal mode of the encounters does involve you getting help from the Warcraft Heros and that hard mode is going mono e raido
That'd be too much like Yogg Saron for my liking.
Personally I'm hoping in terms of hero involvement that each level has you working with a hero/multiple heroes in some capacity and each progression to the next has them sacrificing or doing some daring task so your group can proceed. Like you're about to be ambushed but Thrall stays back to cover your back while you keep going.

Yogg just had their spirits buff you while they sat stationary, occasionally zapping something.
I was hoping more for say, Thrall running in and doing 25k DPS and debuffing Arthas.
I wonder if Icecrown is going to have a Hardmode Only boss like Ulduar

Arthas is such a shit Nemesis. But Northrend is cool tho'
I'm impressed by the Biodiversity. Sholozar Basin in my favorite, although I really wish they'd made Azjol-Nerub into a fully-fledged zone as they originally intended.
Also a Grizzlemaw instance. I would have loved that, deku tree: WoW edition.
Problem with things like Grizzlemaw and other manimal things is they don't really make dangerous foes. They are too stupid. Rfk and Rfc were good levels to fight things like that, but after you've banished fucking space demons you really don't have time for bears.
Werewolves and Arugal excepted for obvious reasons.
Actually Grizzlemaw likely would have had oozes and faceless ones in addition to the corrupted furbolgs. Possibly even Nerubians, though we don't know the extent of the original Yogg-Saron/Azjol-Nerub plotline.

Fixed for what happens to us.
King Dickbag is a moron. I liked it better when Onyxia was in charge.
Alternatively King Punt Speedchunk.
or King Rip Steakface, or...
or King Big McLargeHuge...
maybe King Thorn McBristle
I don't see how those are anything but synonyms?
