    It probably wouldn't dent his armor or scar tissue.

    Ugh, if the horde gets credit for another kill i'm gonna be super pissed off. WotLK was supposed to be the alliance's story but horde got credit for arthas' kill. in Cata it didn't matter who was there because Thrall got ultimate credit. If the horde get credit for killing garrosh... why do I even bother playing?

    Huh? Since when did the horde get the credit for taking down the lich king? I was under the impression the Horde didn't even make it to the terrace with Saurfangs boy, because afaik the alliance version was considered canon. Even then I was under the impression the ashen verdict got the credit for the kill with tirion as its leader.

    I doubt Saurfang will kill Garrosh, but yes Blzzard does plan far ahead. They just started working on Cata when TBC was released.

    I don't know, but I do know that Jaina and Varian both know the fate of Bolvar according to The Shattering. That would imply that either one of them was there or there was Alliance involvement, unless Tirion broke the whole 'tell noone of this' thing.

    I honestly haven't seen a well told story in this game since Wrathgate. All it takes is Blizzard making sure that the most important parts of the story are told in the game to ensure it remains cohesive. Telling such major plots as Vol'jins coming to or Garrosh's rise to power in novels greatly detracts from the game's lore.

    Blizzard plans WAY WAY ahead.

    And while Saurfang has a good chance of being there to see the deed done, he will have to elbow Vol'jin out of the way to get his shot in first.
    They said they didn't plan THAT far ahead. They may have done but I still doubt that this is a hint about who is going to kill Garrosh.

    Garrosh Hellscream says: But surely you cannot think that those children were born into innocence? They would have grown up and taken arms against us!
    High Overlord Saurfang shakes his head.
    High Overlord Saurfang says: I am not speaking solely of the children of our enemies...
    High Overlord Saurfang pauses.
    High Overlord Saurfang says: I won't let you take us down that dark path again, young Hellscream. I'll kill you myself before that day comes...

    I don't know, but I can see this as a great chance to say that it is a foreshadowing... We might end up with Saurfang as warchief, who knows, what do you guys think of this?
    I think you might be half right in maybe at the grand climax of 5.3 or maybe during some event in 5.4 in the story line questing he will try and kill Garrosh. Prob have the upper hand until Garrosh is infused with power from the sha of pride and kills the old orc hero. This will be the final straw for the majority of those orcs that still support hellscream to defect.

    I don't expect Saurfant to play a huge role. I hope he's there, kicking some kor'kron ass, etc, but considering he hasn't shown up in MoP yet and we already have 5.3's content on the ptr, I very much doubt he'll show up in the last patch and have a huge impact on it. If anything I'd say Thrall being martyred to turn the orcish people against Garrosh is more likely.

    That's a pretty good way to end it.

    Saurfang kills Garrosh in honorable combat giving him legitimate claim to the Warchief title (at least among the Orcs), the fact that he is well respected among the Orcs means few will have a problem with him leading.

    As for Warchief of the Horde, Saurang is mostly a "military Orc". He probably isn't interested in politics. So the Horde will either be ruled by "council" or Lor'themar/Vol'jin. Lor'themar seems likely, for a military guy he is a surprisingly good political leader. Vol'jin ... He doesn't seem to be much of a politician but if the left over trolls from the ToT joins the Horde ...

    as to the OP, all characters will react differently
    People like Vol'jin, Varian, and Jaina are out for blood and revenge.
    People like Baine and Thrall may be more merciful then them

    Honor. Saurfang is a orc of his own words.

    not in my eyes
    Garrosh hsnt harmed Thrall personally, and Thrall is already hurting over the whole situation, so he dsnt seem as bloodthirsty to me as those other characters

    I really hope Thrall dies and that changes the Horde and makes them revolt. I would love and respect the writers so much more.

    This isn't GoT they shouldn't kill off the main character

    Why shouldn't they? I actually wouldn't even call him the main character. Maybe the most loved by certain people on the staff... sure. It would make for a more compelling story... especially better than "green Jesus Thrall shows up, saves the day and kills or defeats Garrosh..."

    They already stole tons of concepts from Warhammer, could take something good from other franchises as well.
