How would Azeroth handle Amon and his Hybrids/allies?

[LarryWithTheWeatherReport]

Azeroth has fought many types of threats including demons, undeads, elementals, faceless ones etc. Was wondering how would they have dealt with Amon and his Hybrids and Void minions had they tried invading Azeroth?

Assuming Amon wants to conquer the planet instead of destroying it.

Amon is in his host body and would have Narud, the Hybrids and Void Thrashers helping him as well as whatever other allies he had during LotV.

[A Chozo]

Dude c'mon, you are the Order Leader now, your empowered butter knife can kill titanic avatars.

His minions would die,
His host body would die,
Even his true body would be imprisioned or something. Azerothians are not to be joked.

[Nemah]

We'd get 25 random people together in an assortment of greens and blues and kill them all, of course. All in a convenient queue.

[Leyre]

We would fight on his back while he ask himself "why i just dont keep spinning to shake this people from my back?"

[Arrashi]

Mudmug would throw barrel of brew at him insta killing him on spot. Then he would convert all of amons minions into his low-wage workers.

Or player character would give amon hard stare and tell him to go home.

He was the bad guy in the first season of Legend of Korra.

How? That stuff called magic probably would come in handy. Good thing there's like 20 different schools of it and a bunch of OP Mary Sues wielding them.

Honestly, Azeroth's protection is so broken right now, we have the Scourge , Elementals, Odyn and his golden army, Xal'atath and my character that can double jump and glide

Such a waste of an awesome villain to just kill him off.

Ah, that explains how azeroth has survived thus far... Double jumping and gliding our enemies into damnation :P

[vriska]

Lorewise, Azeroth would have been Zerged long before any of the Hybrids and his Void army would come near it. Albeit the Black Empire was basically that, but it would be a heckin' fight to see (yeah Dragon Soul) but Amon's being a truly endless army that just consumes the biomass and evolves to whatever Azerothians toss at it. It would be interesting to see how Zerg/Protoss would react to the arcane and fel energies if that was a factor, else they just consume it.

Gameplay wise. Queue up for LFR. Get 10 stacks of determination. Get 15 gold/AP/Failbag.

Serious answer? Would probably depend on whether he had his minions at his disposal. We'd never be able to fight fleets of Battlecruisers or Carriers, much less Hybrid armies. Every Ultralisk would be equivalent to a Pit Lord, and there are LOT more Ultralisks than we've ever seen Pit Lords. Plus, depending on the specifics, he might have the old Kerrigan on his side, and she is quite literally unkillable. What would we do, whack her about for loot? Not only is she the most powerful character currently in HotS by a long shot, she'd be back for more literally within minutes of being defeated.

But if he had to convert his own minions from amongst Azeroths denizens, he'd be no worse than the Twilight's Hammer, who are an absolute pushover.

[MechaCThun]

Depending on how good you can macro units.

I seriously believed that he would win and the Avatar and co. would spend the rest of the series trying to gather strength while he would set out to equalize the rest of the world in the later seasons. But it was not meant to be.

OT, it depends on which one of Amon's pawns would invade. I think Azeroth would have a chance(not sure how big though) against Moebius Corps or maybe Tal'darim, but anything other than that, no.

That seems pretty accurate. I would say a normal Hybrid would be like a mook Eredar and the stronger Hybrids would be as strong as one of those Greater Invasion world bosses. Amon would probably be the strongest thing we could fight(excluding Argus the Unmaker) as he could actually break worlds apart. The scariest thing or rather the most annoying thing for Azeroth would be the Void shades a.k.a those near infinite void copies of units from the material realm. Not to mention Void Thrashers, huge Void creatures that could probably shoot out projectiles for miles upon miles.

[Sangris]

Considering how Blizzard handles villains these days they would initially take us by surprise and win one or two battles before being utterly annihilated on every occasion.

Hybrid are FAR stronger than Eredar - we regularly take on packs of multiple Eredar at once in WoW, but doing this would be absolutely unfeasible with even the smallest of Hybrid. I think even the weakest of them would be more on par with a world elite or 5man dungeon boss (or maybe scenario boss, if the 3man MoP scenarios were still a thing) and the larger ones being raid boss material.

Comparing Amon himself with WoW power levels is harder, though, since most of his power seems to be of the indirect sort. His strength is in his minions and constructs, not his own form. He'd be better compared to an Old God than a Titan since they work similarly in that regard - relatively weak physical form, but possessing a very large influence. Because of this, he'd probably lose to any Titan who had enough wherewithal to go for him instead of fighting his minions, just as happened with the Old Gods.

But even though the Hybrid are formidable and even disregarding whatever struggles Amon's void constructs would pose, they're not something that couldnt be overcome. I think the real threat Amon would pose would be the numerous air units featured in Starcraft - the best we'd be able to do against those would be to throw spells at them, and we'd lose that sort of match-up big time. The few sparse aerial combat vessels we have of our own, counting airships and stuff like the Exodar, would be completely worthless in comparison. Though players are tough our flying mounts are not - in any realistic scenario, they'd get shredded if we attempted to use them to board a Battlecruiser or Carrier or something.

Amon is very powerful not just in influence but brute force too. He is way stronger than a Old God in both influence and power and only a full power Pantheon Titan would be a match for him. Sargeras would beat him with ease. I'll say Amon is probably as powerful as what a Void Lord would be without a Dark Titan's body.

skip to 7:30

And skip to 3:05

He could literally rip worlds apart according the the Ancient One.


Agree that the mass amount of air units from Amon's side would own Azeroth big time. We don' have enough spell casters and dragons for them. Not to mention there are powerful air Hybrids too.

These are rather pitiful displays of power for what you claim. He fired a beam that destroyed some buildings and tore up a little section of space rock. His power seems on par with a powerful eredar, nowhere near what you say.

Lorewise, Azeroth has Orbital Defense System ^^

What about the Lightforged Warframes? Those things pack a punch.

[Nurvus]

Azeroth would use her vagigrip to emprison Amon and his minions' heads would explode in shock.
