    Yes on azeroth. But there are more than only OG in azeroth. But the biggest point is that the demons where with a very big number that darkened worlds (the nathrezim atleast) or OG who only take one world. (atleast those of azeroth)

    Well yeah but he was the most noble of the titans so. Maybe in mind he was the weakest but not with force

With Ysharj they learned their lesson about killing old gods since the land was corrupted so they contained instead.

    N'zoth is still lurking. The Titans couldn't defeat it... maybe someday we'll get our chance? Don't expect to hear anything about him in Pandaria, though! (Source)

    Sargeras was only ever mentioned fighting demons while he was in the Pantheon. Nothing says he ever fought Old Gods.

    While Sargeras is a god and titan so yeah, The great dark god of the Nameless Void resolved to destroy the fledgling world and claim its energies as his own.

    Also it would be very unlikely if he fought OG in his life because he doesn't seem to care about them if he destroys a planet. It is possible but I don't believe he ever faced one of them duo his bad knowledge about them.

    That was from the WC3 manual which stated that the titans were gods too. The Titans, colossal, metallic-skinned gods from the far reaches of the cosmos. So by extension Sargeras was also a god. However, that stuff was retconned by the WoW encyclopedia, as I linked, that explicitly states the Titans are not gods.

    Opening a portal to the home realm of the Old Gods and dumping Sargeras into it would be a grand way to end his threat. It would leave the possibility open that he could survive by endlessly fighting the purest expression of the chaos he proclaims to loathe, and it avoids the problem of trying to find something that can actually kill him.

    I think Sargeras would obliterate them just by farting.

    Then he would imprison their remains.

    It was not Sargeras, but the whole Pantheon. Now he would be alone against them.

    Sargeras had already gone corrupt when OGs were imprisoned on Azeroth.

    That's why, he didn't know Azeroth existed, before the Nelfs started to abuse WoE...

    Everything points to the Old Gods being a fairly isolated problem.

    Shouldn't be too hard a fight, seeing as C'thun was almost killed by a low-ranking titan or titan construct (the latter of which is more likely).
    Deathknight's do it using disease, blood and the power of the unholy. Warlocks do it with dark demons by their side. Mages do it with summoned arcane powers. Druids do it using the forces of nature. Rogues do it through stealth, poison's, shadows and....from behind. Paladins do it by calling to the light for aid. Shamans do it with the help of the elements. Priests do it through the holy light.
    But warriors....
    Warriors just fucking do it.

    Skeram's prophecy says it was a Titan, but that is a subjective telling of events by someone unfamiliar with Titans. Many people thought the Titan Watchers were actual Titans.

    According to Mogu legend, the Mogu themselves killed the Old God Y'Shaarj. But being a legend, the accuracy is also debatable.

    The logic is that if 2nd tier Titan constructs (not even Watchers) can supposedly kill Y'Shaarj, it is unlikely that a full Titan would lose to C'Thun.

    Yep. I don't even know why this is a debate. I thought it's been made pretty clear all along that Old Gods are more powerful individually.

    Only because the Titans weren't trying to kill the Old Gods. If all they wanted to do was win, the Titans could have killed the Old Gods and destroyed Azeroth.

To destroy the Old Gods would mean the destruction of the very planet. Sargeras had neither the strength, nor the foresight, like the rest of The Pantheon, to stop the Old Gods from doing this when they first visited Azeroth. Here's some nice info dealing with the most powerful of them all, N'zoth.

    When Malfurion finally awoke from the Emerald Dream with the help from Broll and Thura, it is remarked, "When Malfurion Stormrage contained the Nightmare within the Rift of Aln, he sensed an "ancient evil" that was keeping its foothold in the Emerald Dream from somewhere beneath Azeroth's oceans."

    Source: http://wowpedia.org/N%27Zoth

    From Krasus: "Krasus speculated that should the Old Gods open the gates of their prison, even Sargeras would find himself pleading for the peace of death."

    Also about Xavius: "Although the Nightmare Lord in the dream turned out to be the Satyr Lord Xavius, it is suspected that he acted on behalf of a power even greater and darker than Sargeras."

    Source: http://wowpedia.org/Old_God

    They are the complete embodiment of evil and corruption. Sargeras is a mortal, just like the Old Gods. He can die, be corrupted (which he was slowly corrupted over the countless millenia of fighting against demons. So even Sargeras had a breaking point to where he couldn't handle his duties anymore.), and be slain. He is powerful, but the Old Gods are unflinching in their desire to corrupt and dominate all life. Unlike Old Gods, Sargeras' death would not destroy all life and the planet, as Old Gods are directly linked to the world. The Titans found this out when fighting them. C'thun and Yogg-Saron are not "dead", but instead, their husks have been beaten, while their existence lives on. C'thun and Yogg-Saron are still fully able to be resurrected.

    Also, it should be noted that all the various demonic races of the Legion are controlled by corruption and dominance. The Old Gods are the living embodiment of these forces, and are capable of overpowering even Sargeras' magic in doing so. If the Legion was to come to Azeroth in full-force, it takes only a whisper from an Old God to dominate all of them, therefore stripping Sargeras of his power. Sargeras is simply the main antagonist, because he is a tangible enemy that can be dealt with.
    I stopped at the bolded part, because that is just wrong and shows you have no knowledge of the subject.

    On this topic people are forgetting that the Titans never really tried to kill the Old Gods on Azeroth. They wanted to preserve the planet, not destroy it. They have killed a lot of old gods in the past, so they knew killing the old gods would destroy the planet. They fought to weaken and then contain the old gods. Killing them would have been way faster and way easier. Sargeras was not present during the fight with the Old Gods. Sargeras was the most powerful titan. It has been hinted that the Pantheon collectively is weaker than he is currently. Old gods are no match for him from any real standpoint.

    To the people saying "But the old gods and their followers thought they could kill Sargeras"....Seriously? I'm pretty sure that is an extremely common mindset to have in competition. I always thought I could beat anyone, even if realistically I had no chance.

    Y'shaarj breathed love and exhaled hate, inhaled peace and breathed violence... Plus, his name was y'SHAarj. It's pretty safe to connect the dots. :smileyhappy: But Y'shaarj itself is very, very, very dead. (Source)
