Hardcore player: Let me save 5 minutes by jumping into the lava to the dungeon. - returns to starting zone.

I think HC is great, its keeping classic players contained in a perpetual torment prison of their own making.

Im the warrior from that huge dookie in the mailbox clip. Run was doomed from start, we were all too low, Tank used shield only once for whole run, healer had strength gear on. warlock assembled the group so thats why hes lvl 34, i needed to do rfd and wanted to test my new ravager, Yeaaah.. Still waiting for that huge dookie in my mailbox. All the best asmon and viewers thank you!

I love how you can tell what decade it is by which shirt Asmon is wearing.

the rogue that died to the spiders was a horde using a model replacer. you can tell due to the deathlog showing notifications for horde. The priest couldn't have healed him if they wanted to

It's amazing that people are trying to parse in HC wow, they just have to get on top of that dps meter, so it can also appear on their tomb stone.

If there’s any place that seems “fine” to die in, it’s gotta be in a successful attempt to kill KTZ. Even if he died before the boss did, he was an essential part of the clear. He beat the game. It’s over.

I was the Mage (Magicbaldguy) at 7:20. We thought the Hunter pulled because the first attack on the boss was "Claw". Turns out after the tank whispered me later from looking at his vod, the Priest body pulled by getting too close. We did all of SM during that entire run too.

Whenever I think the world can no longer surprise me, we get a Kungen clip where nobody dies.

I never understood why classes that don't naturally cleave pull more than 1 mob. You're just tanking damage the whole time while you kill 1, then kill the other.

The amount of people in my guild that can’t make it past 20 and keep dying to the dumbest shit are insane, literally they’re doing the same thing over and over expecting different results

1. Tank without a shield 2. Pull right before the last boss when healer and dps have no mana 3. Threaten irl violence when you die *cracks open beer* yup, it’s Classic Hardcore time.

I like how the SM clip is basically the game, "Who done it?" Maybe it was the paladin, with the level aggro, in the cathedral. Maybe it was the priest, with the attack on the boss, with no alibi. Both are prime suspects using the clip.

I love watching asmon analyze these HC deaths, 34 minutes of this really is a gift. Thanks

I've met countless numbers of braindead warriors and then I always wonder why its so hard to find tanks. I ran Wailing Caverns with a warrior once that charged into the trash raptors that would call for help and he would slightly edge closer to the next packs. At some areas this pulls 1 to 2 extra packs. The warrior did this twice in the same zone and we warned the warrior beforehand. We were able to complete the zone and 30 minutes to an hour later, that same warrior died in the barrens.

Priest wiped that group hard. All the mobs aggroed to him because he hit the boss

My lvl 44 warri still going strong. One Tipp avoid dungeons and groups

The mailbox dookie part had me actually crying 😭☠️

So on the Ragnaros clip with the enh shaman. let me just copypasta rag's abilities, because its pretty self explanatory: _WRATH OF RAGNAROS_ This is the "melee" ability of Ragnaros and serves as a tank-swap mechanic, when Ragnaros casts Wrath of Ragnaros he will send any nearby players falling dealing a small amount of fire damage and displacing them throughout his chamber. Luckily it's quite easy for melee to avoid, with modern-day timers and boss addons you can easily see when to stay in and when to run out. For tanks this mechanic represents the main reason to bring fire resistance gear to the fight, it's possible for you to resist each wave of this ability and solo tank the boss until dead. If you don't have enough fire resistance to avoid being knocked back you will need another tank waiting by, ready to pick up the boss. _LAVA BURST_ This is the "ranged" mechanic of the fight, Ragnaros will target a random enemy player with mana and blast them for a significant amount of fire damage. In addition, players caught in the blast radius will be displaced and because of this you have to emphasize proper positioning when setting up to pull Ragnaros. in summation: 1. Enhancement shaman did not run out when he had to run out, tanks lost aggro due to knockback/threat wipe of "Wrath of Ragnaros". 2. Enhancement shaman was likely targeted by "Lava Burst" because he is a mana user, which is also why he is not standing in the melee cluster as he would otherwise kill them all if targeted by "Lava Burst". its been a few years, sure, but i distinctly remember some bullshittery for enhancement shaman specifically for this fight, as i used to be that enh shaman myself, but yeah its been 3-4 years since i was last in MC so i kinda forgot how exactly the mechanics worked. EDIT: upon review, its definitely the Lava Burst that gets the shaman here. there should be at least 1 healer in range and ready to save him and likewise the shaman should have his finger hovering over his health pot or fire res pot, ready specifically for this to happen because its basically guaranteed to happen at least once during the fight. as you can see, Rag immediately turns back around to the tanks the second he finishes casting, because the shaman did NOT in fact overaggro.

To be fair, in real life each year over 500,000 people fall to death. I wonder if that's more or less than in Hardcore WoW

I could immediately tell the guy at the end shouting was Croatian or Serbian due to his rage, felt even better once he switched to native and confirmed it 😂

I love watching bad players scream "no" while making the worst decisions possible to get their character killed!

About priests: All spells can resist with 1% (plus whatever higher level mob it is). So there is always a 1% chance to resist mind soothe. And when it happens, mob immidiately aggroes. So make sure not to mind soothe if there is a risk of dying on pull.

I just started HC mode a couple days ago and am loving it so far. I'm also leveling slow and carefully. Impatience is the biggest threat in HC mode

iv never played this game nor will I ever. but I will never get sick of this guy talking about it XD

I don't understand why people risk 100 hours of leveling against a few minutes running down to Molten Core.

I’ve never played wow but this is still gold

The duality of execute in classic, you attempt to execute the target, but the target has a chance to execute you too

All these deaths makes me wanna log on and level my hardcore character even more. I just started on hardcore, and I am waiting for my own first death... . its just a matter of time. Warlock as first character! and I gotta say... I enjoy classic hardcore more than i do retail.

5:55 Is that mind blowing type of laughter that you can't physically preform , so it just leaves you in a state of unfathomable Awe.

12:35 hahaha i'm dying

I am the clicking mage at 19:33, please forgive me I forgot those mobs are slow / root resistant 😅

Hello there. I'm the warrior from the STV clip. We are well and alive. But i learnt the lesson about fearing. :D

13:59 love the 180 there. 😂

Love how the columns and trees are nothing to the mobs. Sometimes walls are too.

11:33 I didn't know what this was about so I googled Spectral Stalker Org and the WoW head has a comment from 2006: "Might be easy when you're doing the quest but when you, like me, just happen to pass by as a lvl 10 hunter on his way to Thrall, it's not very funny. :)"

Imagine if losing an overwatch match sent your SR to 0... Man I love watching hardcore WoW 😂

“A shortcut to Elwynn Forest” fucking killed me 😂😂😂

So many people miss the soothing embrace of Elvyn forest. So much they jump off the cliffs as soon as they reach 30 or 60.

Priest is level 36, you can see it for two frames

You can see the pally start getting attacked. pally pulled

24:00 Bro you NEVER help random people in hardcore. Only in the teens, 17 or so, but lost my hunter because I tried to help a priest in Westfall. He pulled 4 Defias guys near one of the caves. I pulled 2 off him. He leashed the other 2, so of course they aggro'd onto me. He had 80%+ hp and mana. I got netted, pet died, he came over next to me and just jumped while I ticked down to death. NEVER help randos.

19:31 My man just Lava-Skipped to touching grass again

Seen everything from this har ore wow channel. But still worth to watch again with Asmongolds insight to game mechanics

I play a game called Deep Rock Galactic in which you fight swarms of bugs. The devs put out a chart ranking how people die. #1 cause: fall damage 😅 It's a thing Stone and Rock!

Asmon was made for this so much fun.

Watching these hardcore deaths taught me how to play WoW despite never even having a subscription to it

Draqula is a boy, that man deserves an award for how loyal he was sticking by his moron of a carry there

Fun is not a word the comes to minds when thinking about balance... but this, this puts a smile on my face.

I'll never understand some of these deaths. Especially 2:30. If you're running from mobs the entire goal is for them to leash. Running in circles or running into additional mobs is NOT the solution.

16:30, hard to taunt or mocking blow when your in AN ICE BLOCK that the priest did not dispel.

Dude at 1:20 not LoSing and instead trying to climb the clif... classic wow player

I love the secret enrmies quest because a priest or mage walked in when they spawned and immediately died do to Aggro. Feels bad man XD

I love waking up to these videos lol, best way to start the day

I cant get enough of this

The duo at 13 minutes in STV is from my tiny country of Hungary in EU with our impossible language. You did pretty well to pronounce it for a 1st try.

4:22 ish, i wonder what band he's listening to sounds sick and wish i knew what it was wish he had "song playing: bandname/songname" showing on his screen/stream T_T

Lmao at 6:00, that manz said “we ride together, we die together” basically 😂😂

i tank in wow and can easily taunt back a mob before it even attacks. watching these is very instructive, though. had to edit for the elite in that EPL cave - yeah, that is basically an open world boss.

First time seeing an advert for the hardcore makgora tournament and it's 17th october btw

I was a casual WoW player at best when I did play it. Never knew I needed these videos in my life though.

"Ouh Bonusgator" got me 😂

14:30 Yes, that Priest should have noped out, but you have to respect the "Ride or Die" types.

FYI the Blamo tank fucked up positioning and made the safe spot not safe from Blamo marks, which make ppl panic. He was forced by the Blamo tank to take a mark from somewhere, and he should have ran toward Thane instead of Rivendare since he had no Thane marks and had a few Rivendare marks.

3:10 Dude cast fear. How fitting.

Dookie in a Mailbox will be my new guild name.

Do a video of going over the heat map of deaths in each zone XD

New strat just came out there's full tank priests just holding aggro better than all warriors combined.

I'm never gonna understand this stigma against clicking, especially when you're solo. Some people play much better that way because they can't deal with having 90 different binds for 90 different abilities

Shouldn't have been there, there being hardcore wow.

does anyone know the song that plays in the background on the first clip?

the amount of times I've seen priests die without inner fire up tilts me so hard

There's some sort of deep religious analogy to classic hardcore "I am free" and IRL death but I don't have the words for it.

Can't believe that happend at 20:36 LOL

Anyone knows what addon the rogue is using to change his skin and his race and everything please? clip at 23:07

Lmao that raidleader at the end xD

I loved this game so much back in the day. I'm not a pro like Asmongold but I enjoyed the end of BC and the start of Wrath and played until WoD. This brings back good memories and I want to play it again but I have no idea of my passwords, etc from back then and really don't want to start over. Ah well, the game has changed so much I prolly would just be lost and I'm not sure I wanna spend the 23 bucks/month they charge us up in Canada. Good memories though.... Edit; I also have no idea how many of the WoW base game/expansions I would have to buy to start playing again but I'm guessing its a lot.

there it is, there it is...

that lock with 43 dps was wanding one mob while the tank had the rest xD

"A huge dookie" had me in tears

9:00 More frame by frame analysis than the Zapruder film.

This is my HC experience at level 9 as a Human Paly... Me: Oh look an entire colony of merlocs suddenly respawn to chase after me... Internet: Well, it's time for me to go... I DC'd and came back to as a ghost. I was freed early and never looked back. I can't imagine the pain of dying suddenly at 60 and its just over... All that time and commitment, just all for naught. I got off easy dying at 9th level. I didn't know it then, but my Internet saved me... like it knew... My Google fiber, consciously knew, as in AI... it said... "dude, I seen you do this already... not again... go live... live for me..."

12:58 "FUTA MOMENT" has me fuckin rolling

17:00 lucky all that was lost was a rogue, they take no time to level , its basically cheat mode melee

some of those deaths feels like they just want to be free

Looking at the frame by frame, that priest in SM was level 36

Got absolutely nuked by that boss mob in Silverpine the other day. Thank god it happened that early 😂

That warlock with 43 DPS reminded me of a guy in my latest +15 freehold group, feral druid who did 13k dps on AoE :))))))

first clip, imagine dying while standing, just chilling with berserker stance. Back to retail guys

Damn this is the earliest I’ve been. A good night cap

oh no im gonna die. let me run away, and while im running away ill pick up as many mobs as possible

6:19 "You jump, I jump"

I just lost my 59 Hunter to the fucking tyrion quest that spawns 5 mobs on top of you. I'm literally shaking

These falldmg deaths remind me of when I started playing 15yrs ago , one of the first things I did was jump off Teldrassil

Years ago I saw your videos and I just couldnt watch them and I hated them so much. Now seeing these hc death clips have become my favourite content I have ever seen in tube. Life is weird man

What happened with the Hidden enemies quest??

I just noticed theres no outro music on the videos anymore :(

The titlemaker seems to have buffer overflowed the insanity. I think soon we'll get "World of Warcraft: Classic - HARDCORE mode - Deaths and near death moments compilation - Asmongold reacts"

10:35 I think it was the hunter. His name is GreenPK.

10:43 It wasn't griefing. It was just Judgement Day.
