Would just result in patch 6.4 Siege of Undercity
Story-wise they would have to be insane to do it.
Give the Dark Lady some credit. It would take at least two expansion before people realized what she was up to.
Can't a man dream? I just hope it isn't Thrall.
That's par with Garrosh.
Well, two whole expansions. I quit Cata before Firelands but Garrosh was fairly reasonable at that point. Blood Knighty, but he threw that one commander off of a cliff after he attacked civilians. Did he do something stupid before the mana bombing at the end of expansion event?

I love Pokken!
Like i said before, i want it to be Lor'themar just to see the meltdowns.
And, didn't Blizzard said that we wont know who the new Warchief is in 5.4? Only in a later patch?

During SoO.
They're putting in a cutscene in 5.4, similar to what they did at the end of Wrath that'll show the new Warchief.
Lor'themar would make zero sense, what with him having been in talks to have the elves rejoin the alliance until garrosh screwed it up.
I wonder if Blizzard would ever actually be willing to shuffle a race or two around like that in a future expansion? I doubt it obviously, since it would probably just upset a lot of people. But it's still kind of neat to think about.

I think Lor'themar would be fine exactly because of what he has seen his people through. I mean the character growth has been very well handled. He knows how to handle politics well too.
Most people who would hate on it being Lor'themar would be because he is a BE.
I wouldn't mind seeing Rexxar or Saurfang return to become WC.
Vol'jin is the most obvious choice.

It would be very awkward to see the horde being not commanded by orcs.
Lorthemar would be a pleasant choice, that dude hates being a leader but he does for the well being of his race. Maybe he will quit later or creates a truce with the alliance to avoid such responsability.

Dude what UI is that its pretty awesomegrats on the 3rd 90 working on mine now.
It's not a pre-packaged UI, just one I put together myself. The "base" of it, or what you see in that shot, is:
SexyMap (minimap)
Dominos (action bars)
kgPanels (the background for chat and meter)
Chatter (chat)
Skada (meter)
Stuf (unit frames)
Grid (party/raid frames)
I've put a lot of time into making my UI, and I actually overhauled it to what you see there very recently.
So I've been gone from wow for about 6 months now. I plan on coming back to it soon enough. It might be around BlizzCon though. All of the new expansion info will probably persuade me into playing through the last MOP patch and into the new game. But in the mean time, I've been reading up on some of the lore... it's cool how mysterious many of the stories in wow are. There have been things back in Vanilla wow that still haven't been answered. Some of my favorites are:
1. Karazhan and it's surrounding location (whether it's inside, the creepy dungeon below, the supposed 'mirrored' Kharazan, and that sketchy place that the final boss was located).
2. The Whispering Forest. This place is definitely the place the high elves were talking about. There's got to be some sort of Emerald Dream or Old God thing here.
There are multiple other stories that I can't remember at the moment.
Anyways, It's fun reading up on a bunch of the added lore that will be coming in 5.4. I didn't even realize they released info on another Old God that died years ago... the one that the Klaxxi worshiped. It's also cool that the new raid expands org.

Um, the Silverpine/Hillsbrad questline and the whole Battle of the Undercity/Putress makes that pretty much impossible.
It was pretty out of character for Garrosh. He was back to being a megalomaniac by Twilight Highlands, just pretend Stonetalon never happened.

Excited for the patch, although I'm still leveling my Ele Shaman, he's level 85 now. Queues are going to be so so horrible.
Is it weird that I'm really excited to try out soem of the new Shaman minor glyphs.
"Glyph of Flaming Serpent" : Your Searing Totem now resembles Vol'jin's Serpent Ward. Awesome!
"Glyph of Elemental Familiars Minor Glyph" : Summons a random Fire, Water, or Nature familiar. Familiars of different types have a tendency to fight each other. ...What? xD
"Glyph of Rain of Frogs Minor Glyph" : You summon a rain storm of frogs at your targeted location. Woo, new spell, haha.
And Spirit Raptors for Enhancement is freaking cool as well.
Anyway, looking forward to it.

It's cool.
eh, it's okay.
Now this one is cool. I summoned a fire and he cast fire on a water dude that another character had summoned.
Even if the Warchief wasn't an orc, surely they'd still need an Orc *leader* to rally behind? Maybe we'll find out two promotions in the patch.
Putress wasn't her doing.
I wouldn't say out of character. Like I said, he was being all blood knight-y (daddy issues, I tell you) and he specifically told Sylvanas not to use the plague any more at the start of Cata. Currently he'd be carpet bombing everything with the plague.
Something just hit me - it has to be Vol'jin because of the themes of the X-Pack. The trolls try to unite a mighty troll empire, with only trolls allowed. They fail. Garrosh is trying the same thing. "Orcs yay, everyone else nay". He's going to fail as well. Vol'jin as the Warchief then shows a successful "troll" empire.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Wait until you see the updated models.
I don't care, I want to be Zandalari now.

Got my butt kicked by leper gnomes at rank 5 in Brawlers Guild
This feels really bad
This feels really bad
Speaking of which: I finally got my invite from my persistent farming of rares, just in time to actually use my Raptorhide Boxing Gloves from Barrens. So... as tank, how far can I reasonably expect to get through Brawler's Guild and still make enrage timers? I'm currently halfway through Rank 2.

You're going to have a difficult time beating them rank bosses when you're using Tank specc. You can either kill them a few seconds after the enrage timer goes or the enrage timer kills you.
Brawlers Guild is heavily dependent on dps
I was easily able to get to rank 8 with the Brawler Guild as a ret paladin with an average item lvl of 514(I have the 600 cloak, and legendary meta gem). Haven't really tried to get further than that. My self heals were pretty useful sometimes. I wonder if it would be as easy with my frost mage... healing from glyphed Evocation isn't as simple as healing from Word of Glory.

A group would need to kill Garrosh on normal mode tomorrow for us to know, no?
Well, I'm guessing someone will datamine the info or cutscene.
It would have been datamined during the PTR. I thought someone said the video was encrypted or something like that?

Same as ICC. I don't think Blizzard put the video for the fight on PTR for ICC, only with the final patch release.
Blues have stated that the story ends with this patch. The Horde version of the kill cutscene is longer and has the new warchief selection.
Many groups will do that.
