Forsaken vs Scourge: The Difference Warcraft Never Told You

Why did the Scourge never break free from the Lich King, when half of his army did? And why did Arthas, the most powerful Lich King of all, never take the Forsaken back? The real difference between the Forsaken and the Scourge in World of Warcraft lore, from the crack in the Frozen Throne to the day Sylvanas split the Helm of Domination in two. In this video you’ll find out who really opened the crack that freed Sylvanas (it wasn’t only Illidan), what happened the day after they woke up free, why most of the Scourge had no mind left to free, who actually wanted to be part of it (the Cult of the Damned, Kel’Thuzad, the Four Horsemen) and what happened when the leash finally broke. Featuring the Val’kyr, Lord Godfrey, Lilian Voss, Bolvar Fordragon, Derek Proudmoore and the Desolate Council, plus plenty of Forsaken trivia the game has been showing you for twenty years. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 The night half the army stopped obeying 1:24 The crack in the Frozen Throne 3:45 The day after: waking up free 6:47 Arthas, asleep on the throne 7:35 The plague: bodies, not minds 9:29 The ones with no mind to free 11:59 The ones who wanted to be in the Scourge 14:00 Other free undead who were never Forsaken 15:56 Why Arthas never took the Forsaken back 18:06 The broken helm: when the leash snapped 20:51 The Val’kyr and the new Forsaken 24:34 Sylvanas and free will 25:48 What really separates a Forsaken from the Scourge If you like finding out what’s behind the official version of Warcraft lore, subscribe — there’s a lot more where this came from. #WorldofWarcraft #WoWLore #Forsaken #Sylvanas #LichKing
