Top 10 Most Powerful Orcs - World of Warcraft Lore 

Keep in mind that as with any list it's impossible to fit all the characters. However there are at least 10 more characters that could fit somewhere on this list.

Hell's cream? Once you see it... *YOU CANT UNSEE IT* !

My only disagreement is that Grom is not higher on the list. He was such a powerful warrior, hit and run tactician and deadly quick warrior that I believe he should've been higher. He slit the armour of Mannoroth in one blow(specifically not injured by Thrall & Doomhammer, the weapon) and killed a demi-god in a duel.

If you're taking the most powerful versions of the characters, what happened to red Grom (Grom after drinking the blood the second time)? He was even able to bring down Cenarius.

Saurfang is 10 The guy that actually took off his armor so the alliance could have a chance of killing him during the siege of Lordaeron is 10 OK

Very in depth neat video. Thank you for the time and effort.

Hey Doron! I recently remembered your old roleplay videos and how it got me in to roleplaying and also how much I enjoy them. I'm just wondering if you will do some RP videos in the future, like "how to roleplay nightborne/Void elf" etc for the new allied races? I would love if you did. Keep up the good work!

garosh did nothing wrong

Ok I would redo the list personally. Eittrig 15 Dranosh 14 Kargarth13 Varok 12 Taron 11 Kilrog 10 Nazgrim 9 Black hand 8 Orgim 7 Broxigar 6 Grom 5 Thrall 4 Garrosh 3 Nerzul 2 Guldan 1 Firstly Girona honestly didn’t accomplish much and she never seemed to be any good when she wasn’t mind controlled. Her best feats are just betraying people against her own will. For 15 I put Eittrigg he is a veteran one of the last classic orcs still kicking and that experience cannot be under valued. 14Dranosh because he led the storming of the wraith gates and as a death knight managed to hold of the greatest champions of Azeroth. 13 Kargath. He was a beast of a pit fighter who also showed some ability as an assassin and espionage expert. 12 now is Varok. He has some nice feats but honestly I find him losing to any of the rest of the list in a 1v1 11 Taron Gorefiend. Dude doesn’t get much praise because he was Guldans 3rd in command however his power is incredible and I could see him in his raid boss form taking on most of this list. Only reason he isn’t higher is because his feats are lack luster. 10 Kilrog definitely should make it on the list. His clans magical powers stemmed from him and once he drank the demon blood he became an absolute beast. 9 Then I put Nazgrim as he has been a proven warrior plus he eventually became one of the four horsemen boosting his power. Varok was replaced by Nazgrim by Garrosh and his feats are more impressive. 8-7Orgrim and Blackhand are same power level as each of them have beaten each other once, however Orgrim has accomplished more without being a puppet. 6 Broxigar is out of my top 3. He hurt Sargaras but it was written that it was just a fle bite. And you have to ask yourself the other characters on the list could they also do this feat? Could they do more. And frankly yes. 5 Red Grom was one of the most feared if not the most powerful warrior throughout the first second and third wars. He only died because he was caught off guard by the pit lords exploding body and this wasn’t even him at full strength. 4 Thrall is above all of these guys for his cataclysm shaman feats of strength, he is a beast! We do like to hate on him but you cannot deny that he pretty much was the most powerful Shamen to ever live. 3 Garrosh I put third. Mainly this is because of his old god powers and some of his previous feats of strength. At the time of his defeat at the siege of Orgimmar he managed to create an army and base strong enough to resist the rest of his own Army(the bigger part of it opposed him) as well as the full might of the Alliance. That alone is worth a few points. Finally old god Garrosh destroyed Thrall and likely could of beaten the entire top 10 even Guldan. 2 Nerzul I am keeping at 2. In all honesty I think his power is underrated. It was he who managed to force prophet velen to sacrifice himself and he wasn’t even at full strength. He was a cunning leader powerful Shaman maybe the most powerful Dark Shaman of all time. His manipulation of Magic split Outland apart which is something even Guldan couldn’t do. He also didn’t really lose. First time he died he opened a portal and walked into Kiljaden. Second time he merged with the Dark Star and originally was supposed to be alive afterwards until it was rewritten for time. He out lasted and showed better feats of strength than classic Guldan. 1 Finally we have Guldan. Only one on this list who might be able to take him when he was a raid boss is maybe Old God Garrosh or Artifact infused Dark Shamen Nerzul. But in all honesty he just has such a list of deeds that it’s hard to put probably the most powerful Warlock anywhere else.

1. Gul'dan 2. Ner'zhul 3. Broxigar 4. Grom Hellscream 5. Go'el 6. Black Hand 7. Varok Saurfang 8. Durotan 9. Ogrim Doomhammer 10. Garona Halforsen

The most powerful orc is the one on the intro, because KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Love this video idea, hoping for a series for each playable race. Your video quality has really been picking up lately. Awesome to see. I hope this isn't rude, but the text box at the bottom has always been a little jarring. Maybe you could do it similar to the font used for the character names?

Not gonna mention that Grom broke a Demigod’s nick ?!

i prefer Varok being Warchief than Sylvanas.

Do same Topic on other races, and keep the good work :D

Lol I'm suprised you put Grom so low... He killed Cenarius, a literal Demi God and Mannoroth, one of the strongest pit lords in WoW lore...

I think killorg or kargath is stronger than Garona :/

gr8 video as always

Do you plan on doing more? Like top ten most powerful humans, elves, pandaren, etc...

Please, PLEASE, do a list on the most powerful Dwarves in WoW. Barely anyone talks about dwarves or even mentions them.

Can you do a video about Maiev Shadowsong's magic . Like it's weird how she crystallise people when no rouge can do it . It's so confusing

top 10 Most Powerful Trolls next??

Is it wrong that I always think Varok is the player in the warcraft strategy games? The commander who does, to the best of his ability, orcastrate(pun intended) the battles you fight

You know a list contains some bad asses when Varoks ranks on number 10.

Next can we have top 10 most powerful SMOrcs?

KILROG !!!! -grom

I see lot of video about most power "x" and so far Gul'dan is most of times number one is like so obvious that it feels more like top 9 instad of 10 ( or top 5) i'm not complaining tho is just that he is everywhere. Anyways i loved the video and your content!

I feel like Saurfang would be higher up on the list now

i would put thrall on n2. because he is in most of the lore big part in them ... and so the best shaman in cataclysm, he became a prototype aspect i think thats even stronger than ner'zhuls shamanism.

you can see thats it was from 20l17 because now hes a legend

Garrosh did nothing wrong

u got any vids on zandalari/ lookig forward 2 them

*Beginning of Video* Better have Rexxxar on this, Doron.

i would love to see a video like this without counting the power someone has for like 10 seconds like for example Garrosh. Or just without random borrowed power like the axe of cenarius. Ofcourse being a shaman or some other class should count imo.

Love that your back!

I don't know why, although Guldan does deserve the number 1 position, I think that in a direct fight with Nerzul he would have nothing to do with Nerzul.

Gul'dan is most likely your menacing boss. Not caring about anything else, but himself. Attempting to do anything he pleases to get it done right away. In the end, he losses over a pact of his creation into making the world 'remarkable' again.

Only problem worth mentioning is #10Varok and #9Garona. Def do not agree with that, but the others were okay. Broxigar should have been 1 in my book or at least 2. But overall okay listing.

5:41 Was it really Mannoroth blood? I mean in the game when his blood was spilled it was red and turned the orcs red. Does his blood first make you green then red? I though the green effect came not from the blood but from fel.

You know you have a epic race when Saurfang is nr1 10

Can u do this with all the races?

Best wow youtuber

Dorons movie what about top ten strongest demons in existence minus Sargeras, Achimonde and Kil’jaeden since they are obvious the strongest?

a little disappointing that saurfang wasnt higher on the list. Grom and Garrosh are interchangeable to a certain degree. imo, the most difficult choice is probably between thrall and broxigar. broxigar, while wielding the axe of cenarius, wounded an avatar of sergeras. thrall, while wielding the heart of the world, practically became the black dragon aspect. close call.

Spent £27 just to feel like guldan changing from human warlock to orc warlock... now hes gone and I miss my human

Imo that’s more a list of the most iconic series rather than powerful... for example, no Drek’thar?!

Top 10 powerful night or Blood elven ??

5:45 yeah he totally drank that demon blood and never refused (i know its an alternate version so dont get picky)

It looked like you had some footage of Warcraft 2 Campaign remade in Warcraft 3? is it a full campaign? do you have a link? Currently playing through warcraft 2 proper but getting abit annoyed with many of the things when it comes to unit control

You did not just put Orgrim above Grom.

Blizzard should have done a movie about Broxigar. That would've been more epic.

awesome

Orcs seem to resemble the Huns a lot, I wonder if that was ever in the mind of the script writers.

Is Gul'dan really stronger than Lich king version of Nerhzul ?

Did you noticed that RU-vid went down for a moment? It's because Varok cleaved the internet for that nº10!

Is Garona supposed to be 50/50 orc draenei? Looks like at lest 85% orc to me

Just came to see where broxigar ends up :D

Barring Green Jesus the list was almost universally Monsters...

6:48 Min.: OOOOOHHHH WoW Trailer has played with this sence... I dont know that its a thing that happens befor.

STRAIGHT BACKED ORCS!!

How about durotan or rexxar.

Gul'dan > Thrall > Grom > Broxigar > Ner'zhul > Orgrim > Blackhand > Drek'thar > Varok > Kargath/Garrosh/Kilrogg (interchangeable).

Where can i see it

so i wish to have a little debate here, Grom or Garrosh. Who did Garrosh challenge actually? Ye he lost to Thrall with his elements but still. He got the title of warchief and put everyone under his control. Smashed Anduin through the bell and nothing more than bringing destructing through other powers than his own (mana bomb on theramor or watever, im drunk). Grommash otherwise actually beat Cenarious with demon blood (like i can tell, it doesnt matter if orcs have gotten their strenght by their own or by someone else) and also managed to fight the demon blood inside him and slay the pit lord who enslaved him and his own people.

pretty sure nerzhul was a dark shaman that gained fel powers with the shadow council

How did you improve your pronunciation so much?

how broxigar is 3 in the list ? how ner'zhul and guldan are over him ?

So in lore Gul'dan would win Ner'zul in 1v1 duel power wise?

Saurfang is my Warchief

Hvala. ☺

What about Unbreakable? ;)

Ner'zhul never actually became a Warlock. I think Teron Gorefiend could have fit in this list as well.

Grommash Hellscream or Broxigar Saurfang!!

Lol how did u forget about Rexxar the Champion of the Horde?

9 is from the movie right?

NAH NAH IM TRIGGERED SAURFANG HAS CLEAVED THREE MEN WITH ONE STRIKE..... WITH HIS FUCKING HAND!

"Garosh did nothing wrong", the "we were on a brake" of The Horde.

Killrogge or kargath deserve gerona's spot

Saurfang old as hell

What aboat durotan?

Top 10 most powerful nelfs

Wait, Ner'zhul was'nt a warlock?

broxigar even hurt Sageras lol !

Broxigar is my favorite orc

So thrall is weak? Samuro?

Where is Durotan,Thrall?

Durothan 🖤.

Nez'zul didn't use the void ??? He is more like a shadow priest no ???

The order is very ambiguous, especially the 10-5 part. Varok's in a good place, but Grommash Hellscream should be in the top 3. He's likely that one orc whose feats are matched only by Broxigar or Thrall, and it's all relative. Could've mentioned Malkorok or Rexxar, too. Rexxar is most definitely more powerful than Varok, or Garona, and even the two Blackrock warchiefs. Heck, Blackhand and Orgrim Doomhammer are actually pretty mediocre when compared to some others. Also, some characters like Drek'thar and so forth, real good. Drek'thar was scary powerful in LOTC novel. Could've mentioned Rehgar Earthfury or Eitrigg as well, I see either of them contesting Saurfang's or Garona's spot. As much as I like Garrosh and think him among the best characters in WoW's lore, he was just a bit underwhelming. Apparently his equal was Varian, except Varian had infinite stamina.

Guldan and thrall have to get an exchange.

Garrosh didn't lose Thrall just cheated

Black hand should be higher up

Chadxigar should be number 1 no question asked.

Wheres durotan?

Is this a movie or anime

WoW without Gul'Dan : -Vanilla- -BC- -WotLK- Cataclsysm (not even factions) -MoP- -WoD- -BfZ-

But Grom has the one shot kill ability..... it kills him but still kills the enemy...

I think Rexxar should be on list insted of Garona

I thought Garona was half human🙄 im confused

Is it 100 % safe that saurfang the leader of the orcs is?
