Garrosh - Melee Warrior - Warcraft Hero

[Soulwind]

How long will it be before we see any trailer or hero spotlight to tell us what abilities he will have?

A week or so.

Garrosh was just confirmed by the Heroes Twitter account. More stuff to come Soon(TM)!

my guess his moves are:

his passive: temper tantrum; garrosh is mad thrall is not happy with him. His swings with gorehowl hurt both foe AND friend

his E: throw a goblin with tnt strapped to it...unworthy hord race anyway
His Q: whirlwind. causes all the stink of him to go away
His W: He starts to swing gorehowl but all other heroes think him a traitor and start attacking him ( both teams can not attack anything but garrosh)

His ult: Bomb....if he can not win...he drops a arcane bomb destroying everything including both core's.


( yeah little garrosh hate here )

But for real:

I think he will be a warrior hero.
Using gorehowl offcourse.
He will use whirlwind and leap

And his Q will have something to do with rage, or revenge.

I think a big problem with Dreanei is that there are so few noteable ones. Velen and Maraad are the big ones and there's a case to be made for Yrel, though she's barely more noteable than characters like Godfrey or w/e. There might be others I just don't know of but they're likely not too noteable either. At the same time, people might want Moira/Anduin aswell and Anduin is gonna have a lot of overlap with Velen.

Velen could be a support with a holy priest theme.
Anduin could be a multi with a choice between disc support with lower damage and shadow assassin with lower healing.
Yrel could be an assassin with a ret paladin theme.

It's easy to separate characters when they only use a few spells.

Fingers crossed we'll finally get a new TANK! It's been a while.

Not sure how they'd make him mechanically different to the other tanks, while still being a viable tank, but I'm sure they'll find a way.

Predicting multiclass. He was the nemesis of Varian for a while after all.

That could work. Maybe at 10 you choose to either stay true to your orcish heritage (Tank build) or become infested by the Sha (specialist) and the model will change depending on what you pick.

I think he will be a bruiser like Sonya if they want to portray the classic orc warrior that is.

But it would be interesting to see a Tank with a 2H weapon.

Draenei are basically Protoss WoD And Legion made them more like protoss than ever. the Krokuul in argus are basically dark templars.

Another Warcraft assassin. Just what the game needs.

Also another example of why the teaser branding is fucking stupid and should never be taken as a serious thing at any point.

The Dark Portal is not associated with Garrosh in any way. Great, we met him first in Nagrand. Whoop de doo. Show a picture of Nagrand or show make a vague comment about the Iron Horde or the True Horde or just THE HORDE. Christ, even the Sha would be closer to relevancy than the Dark Portal.

I think it's suppose to be a play on the fact that he came through the Dark Portal into Azeroth.
And now he's coming through into HotS?

Yeah someone else said the same to me.

I donno, that's kind of...stupid? Just my opinion. Could have done something else like, "The TRUE HORDE has arrived into the Nexus!" or something. Just seems like out of Garrosh Hellscream's entire history, the fact that he was on Draenor/Outland and then came to Azeroth is really not as important as every literal other thing else he did. Hell, even like using Kairoz to get to the Nexus would fit him thematically more than walking through the Dark Portal.

I guess it was my fault for expecting somebody like Lady Vashj or Akama or Yrel (somehow), or somebody else whose death and/or majority of their life on Draenor was more relevant to the fact that they were ON Draenor.

Ultimately it's not important. And, as I said, I'm not opposed to Garrosh being in the game. I just am tired of Warcraft assassins. Maybe if Garrosh was like corrupted by the Sha and he was something different (Which could still be an Ultimate, and I really want it to be, at least one at level 20), he'd be more interesting. But there's only so much you can do with a big brutish warrior guy with a 2h axe.

[Tyron]

If one of his ultis is throwing an Iron Star bowling style I'm so getting him asap.

Garrosh was a better pick then Grommash IMO.

Much more skin opportunities that make sense.

[Dr Assbandit]

I wanted Grommash, not the disappointment of his loins.

So happy to see my favorite fantasy character put into the game. Been waiting since beta. Unlike other posters I'm hoping they stay away from the sha, and from the WoW warrior specs. I'd like to see his kit reward recklessness, and encourage him to pick fights often. Every hero is weak to CC, perhaps they could make CC less effective on garrosh? Mobility is getting crazy with these overwatch heroes, they could give him something that restricts movement. A grapple or a tether maybe.

No matter what they do I'll be playing him nonstop for a loooong time.

[Melsiren]

I like how every one is assuming Warrior and Assassin.

He could be a specialist.

A huge part of Grommash was how he inspired soldiers around him with the Warsong. I mean yeah I won't be surprised if he is a Warrior or Assassin, but honestly everything outside of support could work for him.

[De Lupe]

I'm predicting a Grommash alt skin in the same way Widowmaker is an alt skin for Nova.

So basically a bard character? "Allied units hear howls from Garrsh's melee swings and do more damage to non-hero units". Lol

It works for E.T.C. He's a bard.

Axe bard *sage nods*


De Lupe beat me to the next part.

Yes, he is a bard, a rockstar, he was designed as suck, but E.T.C is not Garrosh. Garrosh is a warleader and "a politician", but not a fucking bard that inspires troops. It's just ridiculous.

If anything he should be closer to assmodan with summoning of troops and catapults if they want to make his a specialist.
