Surprised I haven't seen this on here yet.

Looks... Quite smaller than i expected

[thesmall001]

Looks a lot bigger than I thought it would be. I guess it's easy to forget how large Sillithus actually is... or was.

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Interesting he claims it's a shot at C'thun.

I figured it was Sargeras, beaten, trying to kill Azeroth.

[digichi]

looks like the red/orange blood is REALLY glowing.. is that new tech?

Technically both Azeroth and the void (therefore, old gods) are enemies of sargeras. Maybe he tried to kill two birds with one shot.

Would be pretty silly when C'thun is the most dead of the three modern Old Gods.

In the Azeroth's Warning scenario they used the same glow tech.

[Vagabond]

A piece of Gorribal stucks in the wound.
Guess we trying to remove the piece during a scenario

ahhh nice catch. i hope they use it more often.

they are also showing off those starry void textures in there (as well as in SoT) so im thinking we're gonna see more of those too.

There's some piece of broken thing in the wound. Is that suppose to be Sargeras's sword?

The ending of this expansion is getting better and better...

It's explained in the video. There is an encrypted model over the wound (it shows up as a box). We don't know what it is.

It's his sword.

ooo boy

It's really.. small?

Should be hidden model of Gorribal, Sargeras’ Sword.

[Shelly]

I guess Sargeras only managed to get in the tip?

Technically there should only be tip, the handle bit belongs to Aggramar.

[Sliske]

Video starts at 2:00 (skips his shitty intro, pointless time filling talk about old news and so on)

The fact that the 'hole' is made with upward poiting textures and the 'mysterious' objct in the middle might sugest it's no hole, but a sword plunged into the land.

[Vakna]

Definitely not a shot at C'thun. This location he hit is exactly over the subterranean heart chamber we visit during the Magni scenario. Sargeras was just doing the classic "if I can't have her nobody can" as his final act.

[Swarzey]

Seems a little small but given it's limited to a single zone, it's about what I expected. The size of the sword sticking out of the wound is going to have a considerable impact on the scale of it. The pulsing from the wound is a nice touch and really adds to the fact Azeroth is a living, breath entity.

I do like the theory of him trying to strike C'thun. Given the damage that was done when Y'Shaarj was killed, if he could kill C'thun likewise, then it would likely be a blow that could be catastrophic to Azeroth. As a lot of people have asked, Azeroth is a big farkin place, he could have struck a major capital city, sacred lands etc, but the location of an Old God? It wouldn't surprise me if it turns out Sargeras shattered C'thun's prison beneath Silithus. Given the way Blizzard has rolled from one expansion to the next since Mists, there's a good chance this is what begins the event of 8.0 in some capacity.
