| 1 | * The tutorial is just full of funny moments. |
| 2 | ** Right at the beginning, Uther gives Raynor a bombastic welcome to the Nexus while introducing himself... and then [[WrongGenreSavvy Raynor asks if it's the same as a Protoss Nexus]], completely killing the moment. Uther even give a weary sigh before he continues. |
| 3 | ** When Raynor asks if Uther plans on lending a hand, the old guy scoffs that he had to complete the same tutorial without help. |
| 4 | ** [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu Raynor arguing with Diablo]] about whether you can taste fear or terror (or feast upon it). And then [[DumbMuscle Stitches]], Diablo's teammate, ''agrees'' with Raynor. |
| 5 | -->'''Stitches:''' He right! No taste terror!\ |
| 6 | '''Raynor:''' See? Stinky here gets it!\ |
| 7 | '''Diablo:''' ''(frustrated roar)'' [[TheComicallySerious ENOUGH!]] |
| 8 | ** The above [[BullyingADragon ends badly for Raynor]] and he gets curb-stomped by Diablo and Stitches -- then his respawn timer starts, just in time for Uther to explain how dying works. |
| 9 | ** Raynor asks why they're doing all this. Uther just tells him [[ExcusePlot not to think about it too hard]]. |
| 10 | ** Sadly, this tutorial was phased out with V2.0. It will be missed; it was hilarious. |
| 11 | * Nazeebo's voice to cast Zombie Wall. Occasionally, thanks to the tune, sometimes it's like conveying about someone with his accent just falling off from a cliff... |
| 12 | * If you own Sgt. Hammer, sit on her page in the shop for a while. If you wait long enough, she'll start humming Music/RideOfTheValkyries. Doubles as a ContinuityNod, since the tune is a StopPokingMe line from ''Starcraft 1''. |
| 13 | * During summer of 2015, players started asking for a swimsuit skins for some characters, most notably Nova. Blizzard ultimately listened and made [[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/19005495/new-heroes-skins-and-mounts-coming-soon-5-8-2015 a bikini skin]]... '''[[FanDisservice for Stitches]]'''. Needless to say, fans needed a lot of BrainBleach. |
| 14 | ** 2017 brought in swimsuit skins for Tychus and Tracer. They (obviously) involve a lot less FanDisservice, but are pretty silly nonetheless. Both use [[WaterGunsAndBalloons super soakers]] instead of guns, Tychus is wearing a banana hammock and his teleport animation involves him lathering up with suntan lotion, while Tracer's Pulse Bomb looks like a water balloon. Oh, and there's a bunch more [[BrainBleach Bikini Stitches tints]] for good measure! |
| 15 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAolE6W_l9I It got its own trailer]], in the style of a workout video from Tychus. |
| 16 | * Due to the FanNickname "Azmodunk,"[[note]]His Q ability, "Globe of Annihilation," looks and is cast like a basketball[[/note]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXRGqiOdC5k videos have]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuC21C2JtBM been made]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htTftOkTiWw on the subject]]. Fans have even asked for a basketball-themed skin in tones reminiscent of [[Memes/{{Futurama}} "Shut up and take my money!"]] |
| 17 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSe3LWySKTM It's happening.]] |
| 18 | -->'''Azmodunk:''' Dude... welcome to my jam! |
| 19 | * If you have effects turned on high, those killed by Azmodan's fireballs get [[RagdollPhysics launched into the sky]] before crashing down dead. It's both hilarious and awesome. Same goes to Kael's Pyroblast heroic, Tracer's Pulse Bomb, Malthael's Last Rites, and a lot of other "big boom" abilities. |
| 20 | ** Whether on high or low settings, Misha's death ragdoll will ''always'' pop into the air and flip backwards dramatically, in the same fashion every time. How funny this is depends on whether she died to a nuke, literally or otherwise, or to something as small as a [[ScratchDamage minion]]. |
| 21 | * When you are in-game, try typing /dance to make your character dance. The dance animation runs the gamut from awesome to hilarious. Some highlights: |
| 22 | ** Abathur doing The Worm. |
| 23 | ** The Butcher swinging around and "singing". |
| 24 | ** Sylvanas imitating the Shake Senora scene from the end of Film/{{Beetlejuice}}, including her floating in the air. |
| 25 | ** Genji dancing to the [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1990 Ninja]] [[Music/VanillaIce Rap]]. |
| 26 | ** Probius doing disco moves, complete with music added in. |
| 27 | ** Ragnaros hula dancing. |
| 28 | ** Zeratul summoning a boombox and breakdancing. |
| 29 | ** Malthael bobbing his head [[Series/SaturdayNightLive like Jim Carry]] to ''What Is Love''. |
| 30 | ** Tychus doing a... [[Music/SnoopDogg rather familiar dance.]] |
| 31 | ** Qhira breaking her sword into a [[VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution DDR]] mat. |
| 32 | ** Hogger doing the "Hello my baby, hello my honey!" dance, which really matches his Franchise/LooneyTunes aesthetic. |
| 33 | * Johanna when clearing a Merc camp makes one remember [[Franchise/LyricalNanoha a certain white devil]]: |
| 34 | -->'''Johanna:''' Let's befriend those mercenaries. |
| 35 | ** Even funnier when you realize that Crusaders have a tendency to say "Have words with them" in place of "Beating the living crap out of them". 'Befriend' is pretty much the same thing. |
| 36 | * Cho'gall has the option to, instead of riding a horse, ''carry the horse to speed up''! |
| 37 | ** The two players manning Cho'gall will have their names fused in a similar manner to the ogres'; The Cho player makes the first three letters, and the Gall player makes the final four. |
| 38 | * Usually, when your entire team is wiped, one of your teammates will attempt to reassure or inspire the others, or express anger or irritation. However, some in particular are downright ''hilarious'': |
| 39 | --> '''Falstad:''' "[[DeadpanSnarker One... two... three... yeah, that's all of us.]]" |
| 40 | --> '''Space Lord Leoric:''' "'''[[BigNo NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!]]'''" |
| 41 | --> '''Kael'thas:''' This.. is not a defeat.. It is [[AscendedMeme merely a setback]]. |
| 42 | --> '''Alarak:''' Ugh! You are all unworthy of my leadership! |
| 43 | --> '''Deathwing:''' [[OmnicidalManiac Your deaths]] [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness were to come later than this...]] |
| 44 | * It's worth reading some of the Skins' description in shop. Most of them are standard fare, but some can be quite hilarious in description. |
| 45 | --> '''Sugar Plum Sylvanas:''' Sugar and spice? Maybe. Everything nice? Not by a long shot.\ |
| 46 | '''Ringmaster Greymane:''' So a Ringmaster that's not only a lion tamer, but also the lion? Well, that's a done deal, my friend.\ |
| 47 | '''Archangel Diablo:''' Brings a whole new meaning to "Holy Terror".\ |
| 48 | '''Azmodunk:''' In the deepest recesses of the Inferno lies the Burning Court, a realm with a single edict set by the first Hoop-Lord: "Thou shalt slam with the best, or thou jammest with the rest."\ |
| 49 | '''[[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} Widowmaker Nova]]:''' Once, she led a normal life... but now, after intense neural reconditioning, she is one of the most effective assassins still alive. [[BaitAndSwitchComparison Oh, and this skin makes her look like Widowmaker]].\ |
| 50 | '''Pajamathur:''' Upon occasion reality appears unsuitable. Desire for absence occurs. Inhibit ocular reception. Internally visualize. Possible for current location to alter. Make dreams come true.\ |
| 51 | '''[[FunSize Lil' Ragnaros]]:''' YOU FOOL! WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT SUMMONING ME TOO SOON? I DESPISE BEING ADORABLE!\ |
| 52 | '''Ymirjar Lord Muradin:''' To siege Icecrown, the Ashen Verdict forged the most powerful armors crafted by man... [[BaitAndSwitchComment Meanwhile, Muradin stole a Ymirjar Lord's armor, and kicked everyone's arse.]]\ |
| 53 | '''Winter Veil Lunara:''' Lunara the festive Dryad, has a very pointy spear. And if you ever see it, you should prob'ly run in fear.\ |
| 54 | '''Ribbit Lucio:''' [[{{Pun}} Hip. Hop.]]\ |
| 55 | '''Sir Murkalot:''' Johanna's apprentice may be small, but he doesn't take any [[{{Pun}} carp]].\ |
| 56 | '''Creepie Chromie:''' This is definitely the darkest timeline. |
| 57 | ** Same goes for mounts. |
| 58 | -->'''Marshal's Outrider:''' No one can outride a Confederate Marshal's Outrider! Unless they have a car or something.\ |
| 59 | '''Zebra:''' While zebras are in the equid family, they're technically not horses. I'm just sayin'.[[note]][[ZebrasAreJustStripedHorses The Zebra is sorted in the Horses tab for mounts]][[/note]]\ |
| 60 | '''Treasure Goblin:''' This wiry treasure enthusiast easily makes for the fastest mount in the game... [[GameplayAndStorySegregation Unless it's carrying someone on it's back,]] [[LampshadeHanging then it moves exactly as fast as the other mounts.]]\ |
| 61 | '''Saddled Horse:''' The earliest known saddles date back to between 700 and 500 BC. Didn't think you'd learn something while looking at the Saddled Horse's backstory, did you?\ |
| 62 | '''Undead Horse:''' [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flogging_a_dead_horse Beats a dead horse]] [[{{Pun}} every time]].\ |
| 63 | '''Butcher's Beast:''' Fitted with furnace plates, this battle beast was made to be ridden by The Butcher himself. Of course, if you want to throw someone else up there we won't stop you.\ |
| 64 | '''2016 Championship Banner:''' Why hang your championship banner from the dusty ol' rafters? Ride on top of it, and lord your victory over your foes instead!\ |
| 65 | '''Magic Carpet:''' [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Hop on, and I'll show you a whole new world. Hey! Don't you DARE close your eyes!]]\ |
| 66 | '''D.E.R.P.A.:''' Thanks to the [[FunWithAcronyms Defensive Extraneous Research Program Assembly's]] grant, our combat automaton is ready for testing! As of patch 51.2.4, it now climbs up stairs and doesn't trip over its legs... [[DamnedByFaintPraise as much]]. Welcome to the future!\ |
| 67 | '''Thraller Bill:''' Worth its weight in [[{{Pun}} Go'el]]. |
| 68 | * Leave the store page open on Xul for long enough when you own him, and he'll take the time to take in his new surroundings. |
| 69 | --> '''Xul:''' Hmm... Battle.net is a lot shinier than it used to be. |
| 70 | * Xul's apparently not entirely used to hearthing: |
| 71 | --> '''Xul:''' I'm heading back to town... er, to the Hall of... whatever it is. |
| 72 | * What Valeera is apparently doing whenever she has to port back to base: |
| 73 | --> '''Valeera:''' VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}} break! |
| 74 | * The fact that Probius ''exists''. Like the "Azmodunk" [[AscendedMeme meme]], fans have been cracking wise about WorkerUnit heroes since the game launched. Blizzard actually went there and made one. |
| 75 | ** To make it even better, it's not just any Probe: Probius is the Probe from the ''[[VideoGame/StarcraftIILegacyOfTheVoid Legacy of the Void]]'' opening cinematic. The community's made a lot of jokes about the Probe being the real hero of the battle for letting the Protoss warp in reinforcements; evidently, [[AscendedMeme Blizzard agreed]]. |
| 76 | ** It's entirely possible to pull a RussianReversal with Probius in [[EmptyQuiver Warhead junction]] by killing an enemy Nova with a nuke. |
| 77 | * Attacking Abathur causes him to put both of his hands up, making it easy to imagine him being in abject terror. |
| 78 | * D.Va's Bunny Hop. In ''Overwatch'', that's one of her emotes. In Heroes of the Storm, it's a '''Heroic ability'''! It's made so much better by the fact that the animation is completely unchanged, AND it gets a hilarious ''boing boing boing'' sound effect reminiscent of VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1 |
| 79 | ** Similarly, Mei's Avalanche starts with the emote where she builds a snowman with her FreezeRay, except this time she kicks the bottom of the snowman out and turns that into a HumanSnowball. |
| 80 | * In a particularly epic case of ArtificialStupidity, bots will attack D.Va's mech after she uses ''Self-Destruct''. At which point the mech is both invulnerable and [[ExplosiveStupidity about to explode]]. It's not unheard of for D.Va to get multiple kills with a single ''Self-Destruct'' because the bots don't realize that they need to be running away. |
| 81 | ** Gameplay mechanics also still recognize D.va's self-destructing mech as a player entity. It can be grabbed, knocked back and pulled or be uselessly struck by skill shots and abilities. More than one Stitches has outright swallowed the mech and turned himself into a walking time bomb running along side his allies or hooked one right into his team, leading to very embarrassing team wipes. |
| 82 | * Characters who can understand what [[KillerRabbit Murky]] is saying are usually horrified or intrigued, depending on their alignment. [[OmnicidalManiac Malthael]] on the other hand is completely blown away... because [[WowingCthulhu he finally found a mortal who understands him]]. That's equal parts hilarious and disturbing. |
| 83 | * While it's possible for Malthael to kill him using his other abilities, Murky's low health pool and high health regeneration allow him to ''regain health'' while under Reaper's Mark. |
| 84 | * Usually when Abathur uses Ultimate Evolution to clone a hero, it's very offputting hearing them try to mutter iconic lines without much of the brainpower necessary. Lucio's clone, however, sounds almost like the man himself making fun of the clones. |
| 85 | --> '''Lucio Clone:''' DROP... BEEEEAT... |
| 86 | * Garrosh's Wrecking Ball has the potential for some hilarious plays. Tossing a minion towards a near-death enemy to effectively GoombaStomp them to death? Classic. And that's not even touching Into the Fray, which lets Garrosh toss ''his own allies'' in the same arc as Wrecking Ball. This includes '''D.Va's self-destructing mech.''' |
| 87 | * [[AscendedMeme Dreadlord Jaina]]. Jaina secretly being a Dreadlord started as a running joke in the Warcraft community, in reference to her character 180° in Mists of Pandaria. Now, it's a skin for her complete with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbFG3uRx_60 totally replaced voice-overs]] fitting her new look. |
| 88 | ** Adding to this is the skin-exclusive emojis matching Dreadlord Jaina. There is another skin that syncs up to those emojis: Theramore Jaina, as in the same Jaina people keep referring to as a Dreadlord. |
| 89 | * The first time anyone sees Whitemane cast Inquisition on an enemy, probably no one expected [[NoblewomansLaugh that kind of laugh]] out of her. |
| 90 | ** When she casts Clemency, a similar ability but that instead directly heals an ally, she lets a more half-hearted laugh as if she finds it a bit less fun to do. |
| 91 | * Following the above, [[AscendedMeme D.Va the Destroyer]]. Many thought Deathwing was going to announced in the Hanamura cinematic when it turned out to be D.Va. So, D.Va got a Deathwing-themed skin. |
| 92 | ** Following this, a spray was added to the game showing off the claw marks over the Hanamura door. The spray's name? [[AscendedMeme D.Va]] [[TrollingCreator Confirmed]]. |
| 93 | ** And when Deathwing actually ''was'' revealed, Blizzard used that exact same image to tease him. On a sidenote, when Deathwing casts Lava Burst, for a split second it leaves three claw marks [[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/399424650762911747/648606766602518537/unknown.png in a familiar shape]]. |
| 94 | * In a VS A.I. game (or possibly when A.I. replaces a human controlling this hero), Illidan will deliberately [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill use his heroic ability]] ''just'' to kill a player-controlled Maiev. It doesn't matter [[SuicideAttack if it gets him killed too]] with [[EpicFail no tactical or strategic benefit]]. |
| 95 | * [[https://youtu.be/MeaAr0VO3L4 Warsong Johanna]]. Like Dreadlord Jaina, Johanna gains a completely new set of voice-overs (detailed in Johanna's StopPokingMe section below). |
| 96 | * The reveal that the Raven Lord's generals were all attractive female characters, combined with Kel'Thuzad pulling the same stunt the year prior, has lead to a rising number of jokes that Heroes of the Storm is turning into a harem anime. |
| 97 | * The Mechastorm II skins for Yrel and Valla are supposed to depict them riding HumongousMecha, but thanks to UnitsNotToScale, they're not any bigger than their normal selves. That is except for when inspected in the Collection. The robots are still normal sized, but the pilots are ''visible'' (Valla is standing in her hand, and Yrel is on her hammer) and are roughly an inch tall. The best part? If you spin them around, '''the pilots get dizzy instead of the mechs'''. |
| 98 | * Take a look at the Warchrome emotes. The Nova one has her sitting in a trashcan, and the shortcut is :[[LowTierLetdown trash]][[TakeThat sniper]]:. |
| 99 | * Abathur's attack responses are about as enthusiastic as you'd expect a NonActionGuy like him to be. |
| 100 | --> '''Abathur:''' [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Concern expressed.]] |
| 101 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 102 | |
| 103 | [[folder:Trailers and Spotlights]] |
| 104 | * Character trailers usually show off epic moments or focus on telling a joke. But in the case of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehImE3FpDb8 Jaina's trailer]], it's BOTH. Jaina is just walking off normally while enjoying the tranquility and giving a speech about peace, but she keeps getting interrupted by the other characters trying to frag her. She just stops the interloper or tosses them away every time with her skills (Blizzard, Summon Water Elemental, etc), continuing her speech until everybody gangs up on her putting one last interrupt. She still froze them for the finishing touch. |
| 105 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFU4AyQcSxQ Muradin's]] intro video has him talking about his brothers, and mentioning that he might "feel a wee bit overshadowed... ''[[BadassBoast If I didn't kick so much ass]]''!" |
| 106 | * The Lost Vikings' intro too. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLUKSUNLENI Let's see if you can suppress your amusement.]] |
| 107 | * The last part of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fObnjQGrZZQ Johanna's intro.]] After all those epic actions single-handedly swatting adversaries away with her flail (including big guys like ETC or Anub'arak), she just walks coolly and there's one minion trying to strike her. [[OffhandBackhand Johanna just punted it away without even looking]], which may bring in mind the activity familiar to [=WoW=] player: Gnome-punting. |
| 108 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFuDXxL3G9Y Murky's trailer]] starts with Murky delivering ([[TheUnintelligible subtitled]]) exposition about a group of monsters who raised his village to the ground and mutilated the corpses of his people... only for the camera to zoom out and reveal it was a lowbie adventurer in ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. |
| 109 | ** Made even better by the over-the-top metal being played over footage of Murky's revenge, which is actually the riffs to "I Am Murloc" by E.T.C. |
| 110 | * Arthas has been made as the series punching bag; in most trailers where Arthas is in, it will feature him being attacked by said character. Most of the spotlight videos have him being the opposing hero to the spotlighted one, to which the featured character will use him as their own personal practice dummy to demonstrate their abilities. |
| 111 | ** Not only that, but when you test-run heroes in the shop, he is your enemy in single lane; however you fight alongside Malfurion and Arthas' AI is made dumber than usual, so it's more often than not a CurbStompBattle. |
| 112 | * In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjDGWHMNA6A Zagara trailer]], you get a scene of Zagara delivering a speech about how [[YouWillBeAssimilated everyone in the Nexus will be assimilated by the Swarm]], heroes and villains alike, as the playable characters appear before her... and then [[KillerRabbit Murky]] appears. |
| 113 | -->'''Zagara:''' ({{Beat}}) Mhm... [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg Fine, you too...]] (''Murky starts dancing in joy'') |
| 114 | * The ending of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLmgK7udmUE Leoric's trailer]]. He declares that he'll only ally himself with people who will never betray him. His chosen allies? [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor Illidan]], [[SelfMadeOrphan Arthas]], [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Kerrigan]] and [[TheStarscream Zagara]]. As soon as he says this, Illidan and Arthas glance over at him in a "Is he kidding us?" kind of way. |
| 115 | * The brief shot in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asvd7HOaJ_g Stitches' trailer]] after he finds the Nexus that shows him joyfully riding a comically-small unicorn through a Candyland beneath a double rainbow. |
| 116 | * At the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv9I_HrhRNc Rexxar's trailer]], you can catch a shot of Misha chasing Arthas across the screen. [[ButtMonkey The Lich King can't catch a break in these trailers, can he?]] |
| 117 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xCvPv4EJgk Lt. Morales' trailer]] is all about how [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower healing and check ups are awesome]]. But she even ran away in disgust after healing Infested Tychus... |
| 118 | * The [=BlizzCon=] trailer has Cho'gall playing RockPaperScissors against ''himself''. Gall plays rock while Cho plays scissors, so Gall punches Cho with the fist as Cho says, "Prepare for trouble!" Another round is played, where Cho plays paper while Gall plays rock again. As Cho realises he won, he slaps Gall, who add, "And ''make it double!''" |
| 119 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YfHA77lEw8 Chen's Trailer]] has him side step Diablo's charge, causing him to run right off the pier they were on. |
| 120 | * Blizzard sadly announced new Heroes would not necessarily get a trailer (for instance, Lunara only showed up dressed as a reindeer during Winter Veil rather than having her own cinematic), but that doesn't [[ButtMonkey save Arthas]]. For the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ft8lRq3sF3Q Lunar Festival]], there's a [[https://youtu.be/ft8lRq3sF3Q?t=47 line]] of people who have scores to settle with the Lich King[[note]]The full list is Jaina, Kael'thas, Muradin, Illidan, Sylvanas, Anub'arak, Uther, Thrall, and Malfurion[[/note]]. Captured [[http://puu.sh/mTiDT/f9ed1c484e.jpg here]]. |
| 121 | * During the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3wURQFNbhU "Love is in the Air" trailer]], Zagara was scouting for her Valentine prospects from Azeroth. Well, they have hilarious profiles, [[FreezeFrameBonus if you pause the video to read it]]: |
| 122 | ** '''Thrall''' |
| 123 | *** Likes: FREEDOM! ORGRIMMAR! [[ShipTease And gorgeous golden-tressed wizardess]][[note]]Looks like the animator is still a Thrall-Jaina shipper despite Metzen's hatred of that pairing; still, note that Arthas (in his Crown Prince skin, naturally) and Jaina are courting.[[/note]] |
| 124 | *** Dislikes: Blood-curses that taint the spirit of my people. Lich Kings. The Burning Legion. (Seriously hate those guys!) |
| 125 | *** I'm looking for: Nobody who consorts with demons, sorry -- too much drama. Must '''love''' dire-wolves. |
| 126 | ** '''Illidan''' |
| 127 | *** Likes: Eldritch power. A good, soft bandanna that doesn't chafe. Revenge. |
| 128 | *** Dislikes: Crazy chicks who wants to lock you up for thousands of years. Having my motives questioned. [[SiblingRivalry Girl-stealing brothers]]. |
| 129 | *** I'm looking for: Is this some kind of joke? Seriously? How DARE you, you have NO idea what I've been through! |
| 130 | ** '''Gazlowe''' |
| 131 | *** Likes: {{Gold|Fever}}. Constructing incredible feats of engineering that don't blow up 'till I want'em to. Uhhh, did I mention gold? And a little respect go a long way. |
| 132 | *** Dislikes: [[TheRival Gnome-engineers]] ([[CoughSnarkCough coughHACKS!cough]]) jokes. When my tech goes kablooey. Not gettin' paid. |
| 133 | *** I'm looking for: Somebody who don't mind goin' dutch. It ain't that I'm cheap... well, okay -- I'm cheap. Guilty as charged! |
| 134 | ** '''Anub'arak''' (Note that his profile picture uses his Lovebug skin, as does Anub'arak himself. |
| 135 | *** Likes: Disco! (Hey, you know you like it!) Slaying blood elves. And humans. And Orcs. And Nerubians. Huh -- slaying in general, I guess. Long relaxing scuttles on the beaches. Subjugating others. |
| 136 | *** Dislikes: Serving ruthless, demanding masters. Hey, Lich King -- I'll call if I feel like it! Being deceased. |
| 137 | *** I'm looking for: A female with 6 to 8 legs. Must love children... thousands of children. |
| 138 | ** After seeing Anub'arak's profile Zagara blushs and makes a sound like giggling as her expression says, "Sold!". She also says "Eww" when seeing Gazlowe's profile. |
| 139 | * Dehaka's apparently a [[https://youtu.be/PozsZjqaTNs?t=2m45s fan]] of {{Music/Drake}}: |
| 140 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlbWKyc3JZA Trailers are back for Tracer]], which has [[GenkiGirl Tracer]] {{Squee}} over the Nexus. However, the last shot is Tracer posing with Nova... who ''suddenly'' switches into Widowmaker, startling Tracer and claims that it's not funny. It's funny for us though. |
| 141 | * Chromie's trailer is straight up adorable and filled with laughs. |
| 142 | ** When she first shows up, she gives an adorable roar in her Gnome form. At the end of the trailer, she rewinds time and we see her roar in dragon form as well. |
| 143 | ** Calling back to Stitches' trailer, we see Chromie reversing time and showing his unicorn-riding gallop through a field backwards. |
| 144 | ** This line from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80bBqPdjBAs Chromie's trailer]] when she unleashed a rather OP explosion: |
| 145 | --> ''Ehh, don't worry. That's gonna get nerfed.'' |
| 146 | ** Her trailer begins with her narrating "In the beginning..." as a scene from the ''Cataclysm'' trailer plays. Then it stops (complete with VHS visual and sound effect) and she says, "wait a second." Then she narrates "In our DarkestHour..." as a scene from a Starcraft 2 trailer plays, only for her to stop herself (with VHS sound and visual effect again, and say "too far, way too far". With the video then rewinding to the Blizzard logo. |
| 147 | * The Spotlight for Gul'dan explains balancing between healing and self-damaging for mana is key to playing him. Overuse of Life Tap is demonstrated by [[AscendedMeme Abathur]] [[CherryTapping slapping Gul'dan to death]] then ''dancing.'' |
| 148 | ** The demonstration of Gul'dan's ''Horrify'' heroic has him casting it on Diablo two separate times. There's just something amusing about watching the ''Lord of Terror'' fleeing in terror. |
| 149 | * The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihRYeNMOkzE Azmodunk skin got a trailer.]] Good luck keeping that straight face. |
| 150 | * The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhhaPVdG7fQ Machines of War]] trailer has Alarak battling it out with Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan while throwing in generous amounts of EvilGloating, leading to this exchange after he forces her down a pit: |
| 151 | --> '''Alarak:''' Oops. I expected so much more.\ |
| 152 | ''(Kerrigan levitates out of the pit)''\ |
| 153 | '''Kerrigan:''' Ugh. Do you ''ever. Shut. Up?!'' |
| 154 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRlkCiPVmII Lucio's Spotlight video]] features a brief shot of him playing music, with three other heroes jamming to it - Zarya, Tracer... and ''Abathur''. |
| 155 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPxjfQaxZhI Probius]]. ''[[WorkerUnit A Protoss Probe?!]]'' |
| 156 | ** In the middle of the trailer, Probius wonders who slaughtered the entire team. He then spots Lil'Ragnaros. A beat, then he has the idea to look behind him... [[OhCrap and sees Dehaka, Cho'Gall, Azmodan and the Butcher.]] |
| 157 | ** On a meta level, just about everyone was expecting either Karax or Fenix to be the next hero based on the teaser given prior to the trailer's release, to the point that the Twitch chat in the tournament game prior to the reveal was filled with 'show Karax' and 'show Fenix'. [[UnexpectedCharacter Then a Probe appeared]]. |
| 158 | ** While it's from his spotlight video and not his reveal, there's a [[https://youtu.be/vEH40-PaDD8?t=154 short spot of Probius center stage at a dance party.]] |
| 159 | * At the [[TheStinger very end]] of Genji's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SJgvzPRFEI&t=0s hero spotlight]], we get this gem. |
| 160 | -->'''Genji:''' [[AscendedMeme You need healing.]] |
| 161 | * "Hey y'all out there. If you're gonna get through the summer, ya need stamina. Ya need strength. You need [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAolE6W_l9I Tychus Findlay's 'Bust Your *ss' Workout!]]" |
| 162 | ** Yes, complete with CensoredForComedy. |
| 163 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jInzG9Ukrk&t=0s Obey the Call]] is mostly just badass, but Hammer jumping out of her tank and socking Zagara in the face is kind of hilarious. |
| 164 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uv35ukl8c-w Kel'Thuzad's spotlight video]] ends on the narrator reading out his [[TryToFitThatOnABusinessCard extensive list of titles]], which [[OverlyLongGag goes on for so long]] that Kel'Thuzad himself gets visibly annoyed about halfway through. |
| 165 | ** Also, one of his titles is "VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}} Enthusiast". |
| 166 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQV2MLHFYFg Dragons of the Nexus.]] It's subtle, but Hanzo's arrows harmlessly ploinking off of Alexstrasza after she becomes a dragon is kind of amusing, especially with him still trying to do cool trick shots and ninja moves. |
| 167 | ** It may be unintentional, but it's pretty funny how [[Memes/{{Overwatch}} Hanzo is completely useless until he one-shots Alexstrasza with his ult]]. |
| 168 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqcQpHqolYI Blaze's trailer]] is a live-action scene of Winter Veil Jaina building a snowman... before Blaze comes in to "turn up the heat". |
| 169 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yx0sZIIJ5Bc Deckard Cain's spotlight]] shows him off, as per usual...and then you get to the Heroic Abilities section. Yes, he can [[AscendedMeme bore the enemy to sleep]] with "Stay Awhile, and Listen." (His other Heroic summons a whirling "Lore-nado" of books and pages that pushes enemies away.) The fact that he exists in the game (like Probius) is funny in and of itself, and while [[StopHavingFunGuys some people]] may think he [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall leans on the fourth wall a bit hard]], his announcement stream at PAX East 2018 made clear this was entirely intended--the game is both a [[SeriousBusiness serious e-sport title]] and a love letter to Blizzard's franchises. |
| 170 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rESl9P2BPg Alterac Pass's]] Overview is fairly standard, with Cloaken presenting the map as usual, until the end of the video. |
| 171 | -->'''Cloaken:''' Will you join the Alliance in an effort to control this new realm? Or will you side with the Horde, just like every. Other. Barbarous. ''(pounding on a door)'' Unkempt. Brute!\ |
| 172 | * sound of swords clashing*\ |
| 173 | '''Cloaken:''' We'll see you in the Nexus! FOR THE ALLIANCE!\ |
| 174 | '''Unknown:''' FOR THE HORDE! |
| 175 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGhP77lUqJ4 Deathwing's trailer]] begins with explosions and increasingly-prominent characters either getting blasted or fleeing in terror. It builds and builds until... [[BaitAndSwitch Brightwing appears in a Deathwing skin]]. [[DoubleSubversion And then she gets promptly flattened by the real deal]]. |
| 176 | ** Special mention goes to Abathur, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent watching it all from the background]]. Until Cho'gall comes running, at which point [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere he just Deep Tunnels out]]. |
| 177 | [[/folder]] |
| 178 | |
| 179 | [[folder:StopPokingMe]] |
| 180 | * As with all Blizzard games, if you click the characters enough, you'll get some special lines. Also, if you remember, back in the early days, unique, non-generic hero units tend to have rather boring annoyed quotes while generic units get most of the funny ones. Here, it's what happens when the unique heroes are allowed to get loose. |
| 181 | * Keep poking Tychus and eventually he drops his cigar into his sealed Power Armor. [[ClusterFBomb Hilariously.]] |
| 182 | * The girls have differing opinions on [[CombatStilettos heels]]. |
| 183 | -->'''Valla:''' How do I run in heels? ''[[TakeThatAudience Faster than you,]]'' that's for sure.\ |
| 184 | '''Kerrigan:''' [[WhoWritesThisCrap Are we really supposed to believe]] I evolved high heels?\ |
| 185 | '''Sylvanas:''' You have no idea how tough it is to do this in heels. Good thing my nerve endings rotted away... |
| 186 | * Valla hates it when she goes in without a follower: |
| 187 | -->'''Valla:''' *sigh* This would be much easier with a follower. Kormac, where in the Burning Hells are you? |
| 188 | ** Sometimes she just hates being poked. |
| 189 | -->'''Valla:''' Are you quite done?\ |
| 190 | '''Valla:''' [[ManaMeter Not enough hatred.]] Just kidding, I hate you a bunch right now.\ |
| 191 | '''Valla:''' You know, if you tried this in ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'', I wouldn't even have to respond. ''([[TranquilFury through gritted teeth]])'' Starting to miss that, actually. |
| 192 | * Kerrigan would like to remind you that being a HiveMind isn't always a good thing. |
| 193 | -->'''Kerrigan:''' The worst part about having a HiveMind is [[TooMuchInformation knowing exactly]] [[BrainBleach how many of your zerglings are licking themselves]]. At [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Any. Given. Moment.]] |
| 194 | ** And a ShoutOut to Music/{{Queen}} |
| 195 | -->'''Kerrigan:''' I'm a killer Queen, guaranteed to blow your mind. |
| 196 | * Arthas wants to correct a pronunciation error. |
| 197 | -->It's LICH King, not "Lick" King. The two are very, ''very'' different jobs. |
| 198 | ** And if you're familiar with ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft'', there ''is'' a [[https://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Arfus Lick King.]] |
| 199 | * ''{{VideoGame/Warcraft}} III'' players, [[RunningGag Darkness]] is back. |
| 200 | ** First, Darkness wants to call his old demon hunter friend (Illidan), but it doesn't go smoothly. |
| 201 | -->'''Mal'Ganis:''' ''[phone rings]'' Yes? [[Music/SimonAndGarfunkel Oh, hello Darkness, my old friend! Have you called to talk to me again?]] ({{Beat}}) Ugh, no I still don't have the Demon Hunter's number. Ask the other one!\ |
| 202 | '''Valla:''' ''[phone rings]'' Hello? Who is this? I don't know any Darkness. Look, I think you've got the wrong Demon Hunter. Yeah. Yeah, goodbye.\ |
| 203 | '''Crown Prince Arthas:''' ''[phone rings]'' I'm sorry, I have to take this. Darkness! How's it -- Wait, what? Oh, yeah, there are a lot of demon hunters now. That was bound to happen. I agree, I agree, it's very confusing. Look, I gotta go, I'm in the middle of a thing here. Yeah, we'll hang out soon. Okay, bye.\ |
| 204 | '''Illidan:''' ''[phone buzzes]'' Hold on, Darkness just texted me. |
| 205 | ** Darkness has also made a few new friends... |
| 206 | -->'''Lich King Arthas:''' Darkness stopped calling. It's alright though, we are still friends through Real I.D.\ |
| 207 | '''Malfurion:''' I sense Darkness in the dreamways... you know, I haven't seen him for a while. I should go say hello.\ |
| 208 | '''Zeratul:''' Darkness is my ally... but we keep it casual. The Void is a jealous mistress.\ |
| 209 | '''Leoric:''' Darkness follows me. I follow him, too... but he doesn't post much.\ |
| 210 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' The Darkness guides me. He's the only one with GPS, after all. |
| 211 | ** ... and a few enemies. |
| 212 | -->'''Space Lord Leoric:''' Never underestimate the power of the Darkness. Seriously, don't, Darkness gets all passive-aggressive about it. Leaves little sticky notes ''everywhere''.\ |
| 213 | '''Li-Ming:''' I once cast Magic Missile into the Darkness... Boy, is he ''sore'' about it.\ |
| 214 | '''Gul'dan:''' I am Darkness Incarnate! Soon you shall all-- ''[phone rings]'' Always the worst timing... I'm so sorry, hold on. ''[picks up]'' Who is this? Darkness who? Oh. Uh-huh. Mmh... okay. ''[hangs up]'' I'm being sued for trademark infringement. Now ''that's'' evil. |
| 215 | * Malfurion tries to make a joke. It work as well you can expect. |
| 216 | -->'''Malfurion:''' Well this is a thorny situation. [[DontExplainTheJoke Get it? Thorny? Because I'm a druid!]] I am humorous.\ |
| 217 | '''Malfurion:''' I'm an archdruid, not a [[VideoGame/Dota2 prophet]]! Get your lore straight! |
| 218 | ** He also comments on his appearance. |
| 219 | -->'''Malfurion:''' First the antlers, then the hooves, now the crow wings? ''*sigh*'' I'm starting to understand how Illidan feels. |
| 220 | *** For Irony point, Illidan's appearance in this game is his pre-transformation one (excluding during Metamorphosis). |
| 221 | * Sylvanas came out of the gate with plenty of these lines. |
| 222 | -->'''Sylvanas:''' I have no time for games... [[VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}} but I keep ending up in them]]. Hmm.\ |
| 223 | '''Sylvanas:''' No, I will NOT sing for you. I'm a heartless undead ruler, ''not'' a music box.\ |
| 224 | '''Sylvanas:''' Look, I've been a high elf, a banshee, and an undead high elf, but [[MythologyGag I've never been a night elf]]. I don't do "bouncy"!\ |
| 225 | '''Sylvanas:''' No, I was never in Music/NightRanger, but I have an all-dead girl group called Banshee.\ |
| 226 | '''Sylvanas:''' The ''Wrath of the Lich King'' was nothing! Wait until you see the ''Wrath of the Banshee Queen''. |
| 227 | * Sonya the Diablo III Barbarian has some quite funny lines for such a serious character. |
| 228 | -->'''Sonya:''' You! [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Death by Snu-snu]].\ |
| 229 | '''Sonya:''' ''[[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness sounding]] [[BloodKnight hurt]]]'' Gingers do have souls, okay?!\ |
| 230 | '''Sonya:''' [[MoneySpider I keep killing but no loot comes out]]. This game makes no sense.\ |
| 231 | '''Sonya:''' I swear, the next person who names me [[{{Pun}} Barbie]] on Battle.net gets an axe to the forehead!\ |
| 232 | '''Sonya:''' Hold on, hold on, let me write this down. Right-click moves... and right click attacks. What does ''left-click'' do again? [[DamnYouMuscleMemory Ugh, I hate learning new control schemes!]] |
| 233 | ** She also complains about her status as a ReluctantFanserviceGirl: |
| 234 | -->'''Sonya:''' If I ever find out who invented the ChainmailBikini, I'm going punch their jaw off their face.\ |
| 235 | '''Sonya:''' Ever had that nightmare where you are at work in your underwear? That's me. Every day. |
| 236 | ** And her [[ShoutOut Shout-Outs]] to ''Film/{{Conan the Barbarian|1982}}'': |
| 237 | -->'''Sonya:''' Bul-Kathos, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one will remember why we fight, or why we die. All that matters is that five stood against five. I ask you, grant me one request. [[SeriousBusiness Improve my MMR! If you do not listen, then to Hell with you!]]\ |
| 238 | '''Sonya:''' Let's see, crush enemies, done. Drive them before me, of course. Hear the lamentations of their women... let's skip that one. |
| 239 | * Falstad gets in a few funnies as well. |
| 240 | ** He'll have you know that he's never been dead. |
| 241 | --->'''Falstad:''' [[ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated Rumors of me death have been greatly exaggerated]]. |
| 242 | *** Made absolutely hilarious when you look into the Red Shirt Guy fiasco. |
| 243 | ** And furthermore, he's annoyed about the proliferation of Flying in [=WoW=]. |
| 244 | --->'''Falstad:''' In my day, it took serious dedication to ride a gryphon. Nowadays, even gnomes are doing it! |
| 245 | * Jaina explaining why shipping Thrall with her is impossible: she prefers blue (note Arthas wore blue prominently when he was fully human, and of course she wound up with Kalecgos in ''Tides of War''), and [[CartwrightCurse the last two men who tried pursuing her ended up trying to destroy the world.]] So yeah, she'd rather just study -- safer that way. |
| 246 | ** She cracks jokes about her magic. |
| 247 | -->'''Jaina:''' I'm a sorceress... [[Film/HarryPotter and a thumping good one, too!]]\ |
| 248 | '''Jaina:''' [[Music/LouisArmstrong I put a spell on you, because you're mine.]] |
| 249 | ** She fails to {{def|ied trope}}y making a ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' reference. |
| 250 | -->'''Jaina:''' By the way if you're holding on for a ''Frozen'' reference, just let it go. *gasp* [[GotMeDoingIt Oh no, what have I done?!]] |
| 251 | ** She also tries to cast a teleport spell but fails, in the end up making yet another reference. |
| 252 | -->'''Jaina:''' I wonder if my Teleport spell will work here... Now where did that spell go... Oh! Here it is. [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003 Azarath Metrion Zinthos!]] ...Wait, that's not right.\ |
| 253 | '''Jaina:''' So forget [[VideoGame/WarCraft what I said before]] -- ''now'' is when things are starting to get weird. I mean, I saw a dwarf made of candy earlier![[note]]Muradin in his Kandy King skin, no doubt.[[/note]] |
| 254 | * Thrall, for his jokes, drops the "honorable shaman" persona and starts to sound more like an actor from the 80s who took a break from showbiz and is having trouble adapting now that he's back at it. |
| 255 | -->'''Thrall''': Hm? Oh, we're doing the 'joke' thing. Sorry, it's been a while. |
| 256 | -->'''Thrall''': Ah, I miss real-time strategy. |
| 257 | -->'''Thrall''': The isometric angles, the large-scale battles! |
| 258 | -->'''Thrall''': Can't say I miss all this poking though... |
| 259 | -->'''Thrall''': [[Music/EarthWindAndFire Earth! Wind! Fire!]] Let's ''groove'' tonight. |
| 260 | -->'''Thrall''': Which came first; The Doomhammer, or the Doomhammers? Think about it... |
| 261 | -->'''Thrall''': Let's see what abilities they gave me this time. Chain Lightning, always good... Feral Spirit, Windfury... Sorry Rehgar, looks like I got all the good stuff. |
| 262 | -->'''Thrall''': Wait, what? What do you mean there's "lore" in this game? You guys actually paid someone to write about Raynor meeting Diablo? Isn't that precisely what fanfiction is for?! Nrrgh, I didn't approve any of this! |
| 263 | * Nova can get a ''wee'' bit jealous of Kerrigan... |
| 264 | -->'''Nova:''' Well all day long at Ghost Academy, all I hear is how great Sarah is at this, or how wonderful Kerrigan did at that. Kerrigan, Kerrigan, Kerrigan! |
| 265 | ** There's also her trying to pull one joke and before she ever said a word, she abruptly got interrupted by a male announcer... |
| 266 | -->'''Nova:''' You ever hear the one about the -\ |
| 267 | '''Male Voice:''' This joke has been [[DevelopmentHell indefinitely]] [[VaporWare postponed]]. |
| 268 | * Zeratul discovers another part of the prophecy. Sadly, it's not the one he's looking for. |
| 269 | -->'''Zeratul:''' [[Franchise/StarWars The prophecy foretells of the chosen one, one who will bring balance to the fo]]-- oh, ho, woah; this is the wrong prophecy. [[YouWannaGetSued That was a close one, we almost got sued there.]]\ |
| 270 | '''Zeratul:''' *sneezes* Wait, what just happened? How did I ''do'' that? |
| 271 | ** Remember how Zeratul [[HeKnowsAboutTimedHits always told you how to use his abilities]] when he was playable in ''Starcraft II''? Turns out he doesn't have the fourth-wall awareness to go with it... |
| 272 | --> '''Zeratul:''' I should use my abilities to attack enemy heroes. Also, I should investigate why I talk to myself so much. |
| 273 | * A removed annoyed quote from Nazeebo at the Alpha stages has him complain about his knees hurt and then... |
| 274 | -->'''Nazeebo:''' Bring me my cane.\ |
| 275 | '''Deckard Cain:''' ''[appears via Scroll of Town Portal]'' Stay awhile and listen!\ |
| 276 | '''Nazeebo:''' No, not you! |
| 277 | * Uther has something to say about the game cursor. |
| 278 | -->'''Uther:''' What the-? What happened to that silver hand in the sky? Seriously, "Order of the Weird Space Triangle" doesn't have nearly the same ring to it. |
| 279 | ** Also, if you were hoping Uther doesn't know about what you and Mehlar Dawnblade got up to... [[OhCrap he knows]]. |
| 280 | -->'''Uther:''' By the way, a little bronze dragon told me about [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft what you blood elves are planning to do to my grave]]. I'm ''not'' thrilled about it. |
| 281 | ** Uther's church is the field of battle. |
| 282 | -->'''Uther:''' I mean, what do you think I carry this book around for? My ''health?'' |
| 283 | * And then there's Muradin. |
| 284 | -->'''Muradin:''' Oh, no. Blizzard killed your favorite character. Well, don't fret! Odds are they'll be returning in an expansion or two! Trust me, I know!\ |
| 285 | '''Muradin:''' Look, I was never dead, alright? I was just restin' me eyes!\ |
| 286 | '''Muradin:''' [[{{Website/YTMND}} You're the dwarf now, dog!]]\ |
| 287 | '''Muradin:''' I know it's a tragedy and everything but, me brother Magni does make a fine statue! All sparkly and stuff!\ |
| 288 | '''Muradin:''' Back when Brann were a wee dwarf, we'd always catch him looking at Explorer's Guild Magazine. [[IReadItForTheArticles Said it was "for the articles".]] Bah! We all knew it was really for the paintings of the Tuskarr women, ha ha! |
| 289 | * Tyrael. |
| 290 | -->'''Tyrael:''' I'm sorry, did you say something? I was busy thinking about justice.\ |
| 291 | '''Tyrael:''' Fool! You have just ensured the doom of this world. You cannot even begin to imagine what you set in motion this day... HAAHAHAHAHA! I’m kidding! I like to say things like that. |
| 292 | ** Though some may see that last one as [[DudeNotFunny in poor taste]] due to what happened when Tyrael said that in [[VideoGame/DiabloII canon...]][[note]]He said that to a guy called Marius in a DareToBeBadass moment to destroy Baal's soulstone, which failed and got Marius killed.[[/note]] |
| 293 | ** He also has a unique way to advertise his own series: |
| 294 | -->'''Tyrael:''' You are quite proficient at clicking. ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'' might be right up your alley. |
| 295 | ** Three words that can send any Diablo 2 fan up the wall |
| 296 | -->'''Tyrael:''' [[MythologyGag Perfect Gem activated!]] [[note]]In Diablo 2, the battle.net UI had a gem you could toggle on and off and get a specific chat message for it. Sometimes, for ultimately no reason, it would instead say "Perfect Gem activated", often rumored to alter the game when you played the game with it active.[[/note]] |
| 297 | ** A pick-up line that doesn't quite work on him anymore... |
| 298 | -->'''Tyrael:''' [[LiteralMinded Of course it hurt when I fell from Heaven]]. Wait, are you trying to hit on me? |
| 299 | * Apparently, Tassadar thinks ''Heroes of the Storm'' [[WrongGenreSavvy is a custom Starcraft map]].[[note]][[AccidentalTruth He's technically right]] -- it originally was a GameMod showing off VideoGame/StarCraftII's editor, and it runs on the same engine.[[/note]] For that matter, it seems no-one told him about the changes to the Protoss units between ''VideoGame/StarCraftI'' and ''VideoGame/StarCraftII''.[[note]]HilariousInHindsight -- Dragoons and Reavers returned in ''Legacy of the Void'' as Campaign-exclusive units, similar to the Terran Firebat, Medic and Goliath units.[[/note]] |
| 300 | -->'''Tassadar:''' We must call for aid! Executor, bring up the Reavers! ''[...]'' What? What do you mean, we don't have Reavers anymore? Then... send the Dragoons! ''[...]'' *sigh* Then what do you suggest? *{{Beat}}* What's a Void Ray?! |
| 301 | ** He usually says, "En taro Adun!" like the Protoss did in the first game. But if prompted enough... |
| 302 | -->'''Tassadar:''' En taro... ''me!'' |
| 303 | ** Tassadar also muses about tasting death. |
| 304 | -->'''Tassadar:''' I have never tasted death... and since I have {{no mouth}}, I do not expect to. |
| 305 | ** Mecha Tassadar thinks he would make [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} a good action figure]]. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. |
| 306 | -->'''Mecha Tassadar:''' Come on, Blizzard! Transforming Mecha Tassadar -- you know you want to make it!\ |
| 307 | '''Mecha Tassadar:''' Primary purpose: Elimination of the Kaijo threat. Secondary purpose: [[RuleOfCool Looking really damn cool!]]\ |

| 311 | '''Mecha Tassadar:''' [[{{Music/Styx}} Domo arigato, Mister... ME!]] |
| 312 | * Some of Raynor's quotes. |
| 313 | -->'''Raynor:''' It's funny. I ain't been a Marshal for years, but [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall I always feel like there's a Magistrate looking over my shoulder]]. \ |
| 314 | '''Raynor:''' When the goin' gets tough, well the tough [[GondorCallsForAid call on]] the good ol' [[CoolStarship Hyperion]] [[{{Metaphorgotten}} and blast the hell out of everything!]] |
| 315 | * As expected of the Lost Vikings, they have a lot of hilarious dialogues. |
| 316 | --> '''Erik:''' Seventeen years of nothin', and they bring us back for a MOBA. Huh, figures.\ |
| 317 | '''Baelog:''' It's not a MOBA, it's a Hero Brawler!\ |
| 318 | '''Olaf:''' Hero Brawler! (Viking gibberish) You made that up!\ |
| 319 | '''Erik:''' Nope, but [[BitingTheHandHumor Blizzard sure did!]]\ |
| 320 | '''Baelog:''' Ugh, you guys are so getting us fired, you know that!? |
| 321 | |
| 322 | -->'''Olaf:''' Hey, you guys remember when we were in VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft?\ |
| 323 | '''Erik:''' *sigh* That was just a reference!\ |
| 324 | '''Baelog:''' Yes, Olaf. We're not dwarves, we're Vikings! Pfft... except for [[BigGuyLittleGuy Erik]]... *titter* he's a dwarf!\ |
| 325 | '''Erik:''' [[LateToThePunchline Ohohoho... you take it back!]] |
| 326 | |
| 327 | -->'''Erik:''' Woo! How are you guys holding up? I think I need a bath.\ |
| 328 | '''Baleog:''' Bath? [[HistoryMarchesOn Vikings don't need no stinking baths!]]\ |
| 329 | '''Olaf:''' We don't need no stinking Vikings, either. |
| 330 | |
| 331 | -->'''Olaf:''' Aah, just so we're clear, [[ContinuityNod I still have dibs on Erik's helmet]].\ |
| 332 | '''Baleog:''' I get his boots!\ |
| 333 | '''Erik:''' Seventeen years, nothin' changes. |
| 334 | * Kael'thas has some funny things to say: |
| 335 | -->'''Kael'thas:''' [[Franchise/StarWars I sense something... elusive.]]\ |
| 336 | '''Kael'thas:''' I don't ''suffer'' [[AscendedMeme setbacks]]. I revel in them.\ |
| 337 | '''Kael'thas:''' Hmmm.... yes... I'd Mana Tap that.\ |
| 338 | '''Kael'thas:''' They made Lor'themar Ranger General, really!? What next? [[{{Irony}} Are the Blood Elves becoming part of the Horde?!]]\ |
| 339 | '''Kael'thas:''' [[TabletopGame/Warhammer40000 Blood for the Blood Elves! Sun for the Sun King!]] |
| 340 | ** There's also this mini dialogue in parody of [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs 'Your Brain On Drugs']]: |
| 341 | -->'''Kael'thas:''' This is your brain. Say hello, Brain.\ |
| 342 | '''Brain:''' Hello.\ |
| 343 | '''Kael'thas:''' And this is your brain on Fel Magic... (Casts Rain of Fel Fire on Brain)\ |
| 344 | '''Brain:''' AAACK!!\ |
| 345 | '''Kael'thas:''' Any questions? |
| 346 | * Johanna demands to know... |
| 347 | -->'''Johanna:''' Why are you clicking on me, and not our enemies, or loot? ''What kind of game is this?'' |
| 348 | ** Don't poke her too much. She'll lose her temper quickly. |
| 349 | -->'''Johanna:''' Click me one more time, and by Akarat, ''I'll cut off your finger!'' Or '''whatever else''' you use to work that little mouse! |
| 350 | ** And she's not the only one who prays for her God (though she doesn't tell said God about 'to hell with you' like Sonya). The prayer sounds a wee bit similar... |
| 351 | -->'''Johanna:''' [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail O Akarat, bless this, thy holy flail, that with it, thou mayest smite thine enemies into tiny, tiny, unfathomably tiny bits, in thy mercy. Let it be so.]] |
| 352 | ** Equip her Warsong skin for a whole new dose of hilarity. Her heavy armor and [[AmazonianBeauty massive physique]] might just [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall tip that fourth wall right on over]]. |
| 353 | -->'''Warsong Johanna:''' You think thirty minutes is bad? I once fought in Alterac Valley for ''two days straight!'' Might have gone faster if [[SurroundedByIdiots everyone wasn't standing in a cave]], but that's beside the point! |
| 354 | -->'''Warsong Johanna:''' You ever notice how orc questgivers can speak common, but orc adventurers can't? What's the deal with that? |
| 355 | -->'''Warsong Johanna:''' So, quick aside; What's going on here? Am I an orc Paladin? Is that even a thing? I'm pretty sure that's not a thing! |
| 356 | -->'''Warsong Johanna:''' I'm a Crusader? What's a Crusader? ''[{{beat}}]'' Right, how's that not just a Paladin? You know what? You know what? How about we just move on? |
| 357 | -->'''Warsong Johanna:''' [[VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}} I used to be a Warsong Commander]]. [[BloodKnight Loved charging into battle]] but uh, [[HighTierScrappy some stuff went down]] and [[{{Nerf}} we became less popular]]. The point is, I had to find new work! |
| 358 | * Anub'arak was supposed to be a Raid Boss but ended up being a Dungeon Boss, so if he hears the word "raids", he has a FreakOut. |
| 359 | -->'''Anub'arak:''' '''''[[BerserkButton RAIDS?!]]'''''[[note]]Doubles as a reference to the bug spray brand Raid; his inflection is the exact same as in their commercials.[[/note]] |
| 360 | ** Many of Anub'arak's lines concern players in World of Warcraft repeatedly bothering him, but one group of players stands out: |
| 361 | -->'''Anub'arak:''' Oh... did anyone catch the name of that guild? [[http://www.paragon.fi/ Paragon]], was it? |
| 362 | ** One of his annoyed quotes about the clicking sound a mouse makes doubles as an AscendedMeme: |
| 363 | -->'''Anub'arak:''' Don't be [[Memes/WorldOfWarcraft a noob]]. Only I'm allowed to do that. Heh. [[http://www.cwsargeras.blogspot.com/2009/03/scourge-chat-log-1.html I'm making that sound myself.]] |
| 364 | ** And then, of course, we have: |
| 365 | -->'''Anub'arak:''' [[AscendedGlitch Bugs]] ''[[AscendedGlitch this]]'' [[AscendedGlitch big become]] ''[[AscendedGlitch features!]]'' |
| 366 | * Rehgar quotes the trope verbatim: |
| 367 | -->'''Rehgar:''' I said stop poking me! I am ''definitely'' not '''that''' kind of orc! |
| 368 | * Illidan tries his Theatre/{{Hamlet}} impression. |
| 369 | -->'''Illidan:''' [[AlasPoorYorick Alas, poor Gul'dan.]] I... never knew him at all, actually. |
| 370 | ** He also reminisces about the days of ''Warcraft III''. |
| 371 | -->'''Illidan:''' Remember when wings, hooves and horns were strange for ''Warcraft?'' Ah, the good old days.\ |
| 372 | '''Illidan:''' Does anyone else miss Chaos Damage? |
| 373 | ** To [=WoW=] fans who were hoping to play as Demon Hunters[[note]][[HilariousInHindsight before the revelation of their fancy new Burning Legion expansion]][[/note]] and were displeased by the addition of Monks: don't worry -- Illidan [[RageAgainstTheAuthor shares your pain]]. |
| 374 | -->'''Illidan:''' What do you ''mean,'' Blizzard added Monks before Demon Hunters?! Monks aren't even a real Hero Class! |
| 375 | * Leoric has a more negative view of the Nephalem who kill him in ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'' than the questgivers. |
| 376 | -->'''Leoric:''' Heroes? You mean those vagabonds who [[TrespassingHero illegally enter my home]], [[RewardingVandalism smash my jar collection]], [[DeaderThanDead bring me to life just to kill me again]] and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking leave white items all over my floor?]] [[SarcasmMode Oh yes, how very heroic]]. |
| 377 | ** He also shares his only fear with the player. |
| 378 | -->'''Leoric:''' These old bones have but one fear left... osteoporosis. |
| 379 | ** Later, he tries taking himself apart and putting himself back together. |
| 380 | -->'''Leoric:''' The leg-bone's connected to the thigh-bone, the thigh-bone's connected to the rib-bone, the rib-bone's connected to the shoulder-bone... I'm starting to regret taking these apart. |
| 381 | ** Just remember, his title is the Skeleton King, not the "King of Skeletons". |
| 382 | -->'''Leoric:''' It is a small but important distinction. |
| 383 | ** Another reminder that Leoric is one of several dads in the roster. |
| 384 | -->'''Leoric:''' Why are you being so ''sternum?'' I'm just ''ribbing'' you. What's the matter? Do you not find this bone punnery... '''''humerus?''''' |
| 385 | * Diablo himself is pretty funny too. |
| 386 | -->'''Diablo:''' [[Literature/ParadiseLost Better to reign in the Burning Hells than to serve in the High Heavens!]]\ |
| 387 | '''Diablo:''' The Prime Evils can never be divided! [[{{Pun}} Except by one... and Evil.]]\ |
| 388 | '''Diablo:''' Let's make a {{deal|WithTheDevil}}!\ |
| 389 | '''Diablo:''' I have a ''splitting'' headache! [[note]]Not only is the soulstone in his head ''very'' painful for his host, but Diablo once escaped capture by goading Imperius into splitting him down the middle since death is less of a hurdle for him than imprisonment.[[/note]] \ |
| 390 | '''Diablo:''' You know, [[BlatantLies I'm not such a bad guy, really]]; [[NotEvilJustMisunderstood I'm just misunderstood]].\ |
| 391 | '''Diablo:''' Is it hot in here? You know what, it's probably [[EvilIsBurningHot me]]. \ |
| 392 | '''Diablo:''' [[BlackSpeech Teerts eth gnissroc erofeb syaw htob kool nerdlihc doog.]] [[note]]Good children look both ways before crossing the street.[[/note]] \ |
| 393 | '''Diablo:''' You ever hear the one about the warrior who thought to put a Soulstone in his head? It's an ''[[DemonicPossession enthralling]]'' tale! |
| 394 | ** Beware the Lord of Terror's temper -- he threatens a persistent poker with '''karmic retribution'''. |
| 395 | -->'''Diablo:''' In the afterlife, you're headed for some ''serious'' strife!\ |
| 396 | '''Diablo:''' That's a nice soul you've got there. It'd be a {{shame if something happened}} to it! |
| 397 | * Azmodan has a warning for his demon underlings: |
| 398 | -->'''Azmodan:''' Minions, remember: [[WesternAnimation/MonstersInc there is nothing more toxic, or deadly, than a Nephalem child. A single touch can kill you!]] |
| 399 | ** Word to the wise: Azmodan is sensitive about his title. |
| 400 | -->'''Azmodan:''' What?! How '''dare''' you refer to me as a ''Lesser'' Evil! ...[[LessEmbarrassingTerm I prefer the term "evilly challenged"]]. |
| 401 | * Abathur gets in on the fun with some of these. |
| 402 | -->'''Abathur:''' Hmm... Abilities of organism Abathur well-designed. Uncertain will remain unchanged. [[BreakingTheFourthWall Entity Blizzard]] [[BitingTheHandHumor notorious for iteration]]. |
| 403 | -->'''Abathur:''' If evolution is product of design, is evolution... evolution? [[LogicBomb Hmm. Line of thought not productive.]]\ |
| 404 | '''Abathur:''' ''[[InsistentTerminology Symbiote]].'' Not "[[AscendedMeme bug hat]]."\ |
| 405 | '''Abathur:''' Perfection goal that always changes. Can pursue, cannot obtain. [[MythologyGag Similar to]] [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Ashbringer]].\ |
| 406 | '''Abathur:''' [[Music/DaftPunk Work harder. Better. Make faster. Stronger. Evolution never over.]] |
| 407 | * Kharazim gets some gems as well. |
| 408 | -->'''Kharazim:''' I see you serve Soviyat, the god of poking people without end. He must be very proud of you.\ |
| 409 | '''Kharazim:''' [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII You must defeat Shen-Long to stand a chance]]... and he's been dead for a millennium. Good luck. |
| 410 | * Should probably come as no surprise that Rexxar has quite a few good ones. |
| 411 | ** Poke him enough, and eventually you'll catch him playing [[VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft Hearthstone]]. Each of them is accompanied with music too. |
| 412 | -->'''Rexxar:''' Huh? Uh, what I do in my off-time is my own business!\ |
| 413 | '''Rexxar:''' By the way, every time you've ever been beaten by a Hunter, that was actually me.\ |
| 414 | '''Rexxar:''' Alright, break's over. Back to this, "Heroes of the Storm" thing. |
| 415 | ** And he has some unrelated goodies as well: |
| 416 | -->'''Rexxar:''' *cough cough* My throat's getting a little hoarse. *horse neighs* [[CallBack Oh great, not this bull again!]] *bull moos loudly* Will you quit monkeying around?! *monkey noises, Rexxar sighs* Swine... *pig squeals*\ |
| 417 | '''Rexxar:''' You kids these days... The mask isn't supposed to be a [[Franchise/{{Batman}} bat]], it's a wolf! And a [[WesternAnimation/FireAndIce dire]] one at that!\ |
| 418 | '''Rexxar:''' When I'm out there defending Thunderlord Stronghold from Alliance filth, I can't be battling with hunger as well. That's why I start every day with a big bowl of ''Meaties''! The breakfast of champions... of the Horde!\ |
| 419 | '''Rexxar:''' [[Music/DuranDuran I'm on the hunt, I'm after]] ''[[Music/DuranDuran you]]!''\ |
| 420 | '''Rexxar:''' Just to be clear, all the loot we get out of this is mine! I need it for... um... [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft hunter reasons]]! |
| 421 | * Lt. Morales: |
| 422 | -->'''Lt. Morales:''' Whenever I think about Earth, I realize how much I miss...everything. Even the bugs! They were so much smaller back home, you know?\ |
| 423 | '''Lt. Morales:''' Oh, this is the poking thing, isn't it? Think of something, quick! Dammit, [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries I'm a doctor,]] [[ImADoctorNotAPlaceholder not a comedian!]]\ |
| 424 | '''Lt. Morales:''' If someone asks, I always tell them healing is easy. It's exactly like killing, but in reverse!\ |
| 425 | '''Lt. Morales:''' Everyone ''always'' wants to ShootTheMedicFirst. That's what the giant life-regenerating shield is for. [...] Wait, isn't shooting a medic a war crime? Do the Geneva Conventions apply in the Nexus?\ |
| 426 | '''Lt. Morales:''' Listen. You can only be asked, [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny "What's up, doc?"]] so many times before you start contemplating malpractice!\ |
| 427 | '''Lt. Morales:''' Marines love gossip. They always spread rumors, like that we use staple guns to close up wounds. Idiots. I use a nail gun! Staples are expensive! |
| 428 | * Artanis has quite a few, even including a tribute to his [[SdrawkcabName namesake]]. |
| 429 | -->'''Artanis:''' This realm poses many questions, and few answers. [...] Were the Xel'naga involved in the creation of the Nexus? If so, they have left no temples, no new lifeforms. [...] Unless...those lifeforms were unseen, controlling us through some complicated digital mechanism, some sort of "Battle.Net," as it were! [...] Maybe even thousands of these lifeforms, all manipulating our lives at once! Aaah... [[LogicBomb All right, this is giving me a headache]].\ |
| 430 | '''Artanis:''' Will you stop poking me? Go dispense your aggression on one of the orcs! See how they like it!\ |
| 431 | '''Artanis:''' By the way, I said that ''VideoGame/StarCraft'' [[MythologyGag wasn't just]] ''{{VideoGame/Warcraft}}'' [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace in space]]. Whatever this "''Heroes of the Storm''" thing is doesn't count.\ |
| 432 | '''Artanis:''' Yes, my starship follows me wherever I go. It is like what you Terrans refer to as a "pet!" Only ''useful''.\ |
| 433 | '''Artanis:''' What do you think of [[BlingOfWar the new armor?]] [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/1/16/Artanis_SC1_Art2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100113224633 My last one]] left me feeling a little... ''exposed''.\ |
| 434 | '''Artanis:''' [[Music/FrankSinatra I've lived a life that's full. I've traveled each and every star array. And more, much more than this, I did it my way.]] |
| 435 | * Cho'gall: |
| 436 | ** Cho wants to know: |
| 437 | -->'''Cho:''' What do you expect from us? 'Two heads are better than one' jokes?\ |
| 438 | '''Gall:''' [[RhetoricalQuestionBlunder Better than none!]]\ |
| 439 | '''Cho:''' Awwww, shut up, will ya! |
| 440 | ** Gall wants to tell a joke: |
| 441 | -->'''Gall:''' Hey, brother! [[KnockKnockJoke Knock, knock!]]\ |
| 442 | '''Cho:''' [[DefiedTrope Oh, we are]] ''[[DefiedTrope so]]'' [[DefiedTrope not doing this!]]\ |
| 443 | '''Gall:''' Aw, man! |
| 444 | ** Cho'gall tries to [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} protect the world from devastation.]] |
| 445 | -->'''Cho:''' Prepare for trouble!\ |
| 446 | '''Gall:''' And make it double! |
| 447 | |
| 448 | -->'''Gall:''' Knock, knock!\ |
| 449 | '''Cho:''' Stop it, I said ''no!''\ |
| 450 | '''Gall:''' Dang it, come on! |
| 451 | |
| 452 | -->'''Gall:''' [[RuleOfThree Knock, knock!]]\ |
| 453 | '''Cho:''' *sigh* Oh, boy. He's not gonna drop this, is he? Fine. Who's there?\ |
| 454 | '''Gall:''' Cho.\ |
| 455 | '''Cho:''' ...Cho who?\ |
| 456 | '''Gall:''' [[YourMom Cho Mama]], ha ha!\ |
| 457 | '''Cho:''' [[EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas We have the same mother,]] [[DudeNotFunny you idiot!]] |
| 458 | ** They also engage in a ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' impression. |
| 459 | -->'''Gall:''' What shall we do today? |
| 460 | -->'''Cho:''' The same thing we do every day, brother: try and destroy the world! |
| 461 | ** A certain movie also gets mentioned. |
| 462 | -->'''Cho:''' The Hour of Twilight is coming!\ |
| 463 | '''Gall:''' Hour? It felt like ''three'' [[Film/{{Twilight}} in the theater]].\ |
| 464 | '''Cho:''' [[GuiltyPleasures Ah, don't let them know that, brother]].\ |
| 465 | '''Gall:''' Oh, right. |
| 466 | ** Cho comments disparagingly on Gall's aiming skills. |
| 467 | -->'''Cho:''' Will you stop ''trying'' to hit them, and '''hit''' them, brother?!\ |
| 468 | '''Gall:''' [[LetsSeeYouDoBetter Well, YOU try aiming with one eye!]] |
| 469 | ** Cho's worst deed yet: |
| 470 | -->'''Cho:''' Aaaaah... Silent, but world-destroying! *chuckle*\ |
| 471 | '''Gall:''' *sniffing* What? What ''is'' that?! [...] Ooooh, terrible! Move! Move us away from here, you oaf!\ |
| 472 | '''Cho:''' *EvilLaugh* |
| 473 | * Lunara hearkens back to one of the Dryad's old poking quotes: |
| 474 | -->'''Lunara:''' And then she said, "I'm so wasted, ''I'm so wasted!''" And I told her if she didn't shut up right then I'd send her to the glue factory! |
| 475 | ** Call Lunara 'Mylune'. [[SchmuckBait We dare you]]. |
| 476 | * Li-Ming has few things to say: |
| 477 | -->'''Li-Ming:''' I studied the ancient secrets of magic just to be annoyed by you! ''How did you know?!''\ |
| 478 | '''Li-Ming:''' Is there anyone paying attention, or are ''you'' paying too much attention?\ |
| 479 | '''Li-Ming:''' My teacher always used to tell me that I was full of myself, but that can't be true. ''[[ItsAllAboutMe I can't get enough of me]]''.\ |
| 480 | '''Li-Ming:''' [[Film/TheWizard I love this globe's power. It's so bad!]] |
| 481 | ** And then she tries to cast a spell at the player: |
| 482 | -->'''Li-Ming:''' This seems to be a good time to practice my ''"Silent"'' spell! [...]Let's see how you fare with ''this''!! (''Casts the spell'') [...] Hmmm? Mmmmph!?! [...](''Sprock! Sproing!'') Ahem, I have... never made that mistake before. [...] If you speak of this to anyone, I will ''blast'' you into another plane of existence! |
| 483 | ** She also muses over the changes in ability casting between ''Diablo II'' and ''Diablo III''. |
| 484 | --> '''Li-Ming:''' Isendra was a great teacher, but she always kept a secret or two to herself. I'm still not sure how she managed to teleport so quickly, and without a cooldown! |
| 485 | * Should come as no surprise that Xul has some good ones. |
| 486 | --> '''Xul:''' There are only two things that are inescapable; death, and... hmm... You know what? I forget what the second one was. Let's just go with death twice.\ |
| 487 | '''Xul:''' The leader of the Necromancers is known as... ''The Death Speaker''. Three guesses what he likes to talk about.\ |
| 488 | '''Xul:''' For the last time, a Necromancer does not romance the dead, that's a Necroph- [[ChangeTheUncomfortableSubject you know what? Nevermind.]]\ |
| 489 | '''Xul:''' Maintaining the balance is difficult. But, you buff an angel here, nerf a demon there, and the job gets done. |
| 490 | ** Maintaining the balance is apparently a pretty thankless job according to him. |
| 491 | --> '''Xul:''' [[WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers Think of the balance as a net. An unknowable safety net that keeps your soft, pink, insignificance from being consumed by oblivion. My charge is to maintain that net. Now... ]]'''''[[WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers thank me!]]''''' |
| 492 | * Dehaka has some of the best ones yet. |
| 493 | -->'''Dehaka:''' I just flew in from Zerus, and boy is my arm tired. [{{Beat}}] Probably should've evolved wings.\ |
| 494 | '''Dehaka:''' Change, change! Spare some change?\ |
| 495 | '''Dehaka:''' [[Franchise/StarTrek We are the Zerg! Your essence will be assimilated! Resistance is futile!]]\ |
| 496 | '''Dehaka:''' Every evolution is a choice. Every change effects the final outcome. So, when the choice is yours, [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall click on the right one.]]\ |
| 497 | '''Dehaka:''' So many different kinds of essence. Hundreds and more arise every year. [[GottaCatchThemAll Gotta collect them all!]]\ |
| 498 | '''Dehaka:''' Primal Zerg do not have a psionic connection. Do not need it. My pack has family texting plan.\ |
| 499 | '''Dehaka:''' A rival pack leader once tried to test me. [[Film/SilenceOfTheLambs I consumed his essence with Terran fava beans and a nice chianti]]. (''sucking sounds'')\ |
| 500 | '''Dehaka:''' Overmind tried to control the Zerg. To direct and harness evolution. Life will not be contained. No. [[Film/JurassicPark Life, uh... finds a way]].\ |
| 501 | '''Dehaka:''' I followed Queen of Blades to collect Essence. Travelled across sector, but left Leviathan only once, to destroy Terran machines. Should have been more proactive.\ |
| 502 | '''Dehaka:''' You think I change too much? No such thing. [[Anime/DragonBallZ This is not even my final form.]] |
| 503 | * Space Lord Leoric offers some solid advice to up-and-coming evil emperors. |
| 504 | -->'''Space Lord Leoric:''' [[Film/ANewHope If you ever build an impractical, phenomenally large super-weapon, don't skimp on quality control. The smallest oversight often leads to disaster.]] |
| 505 | ** He also muses about his business meetings. |
| 506 | -->'''Space Lord Leoric:''' There are always two Space Lords; one the master, the other? An apprentice. Our meetings are lonely... and one-sided. |
| 507 | ** His cool TronLines on his armor? They have a downside: |
| 508 | -->'''Space Lord Leoric:''' You have no idea how much batteries those things use up. |
| 509 | * Crown Prince Arthas CrossesTheLineTwice in more ways than one. |
| 510 | --> '''Crown Prince Arthas:''' ''[Stomach growling]'' Ah, great. Frostmourne hungers again. Does anyone have something I can rub up against the blade to tide it over? Maybe an orphan? |
| 511 | ** And the second time, referring about what he does to mercenaries in the second to last mission to the human campaign... |
| 512 | --> '''Crown Prince Arthas:''' Wait, this map has mercenaries? Excellent! I LOVE mercenaries. |
| 513 | * Azmodunk has quite a few tales of his basketball career. |
| 514 | --> '''Azmodunk:''' My fans call me Azmodunk. But truthfully, my best plays come from way, ''way'' downtown.\ |
| 515 | '''Azmodunk:''' My face was once on a box of cereal. But for some reason, children stopped eating breakfast. I have no idea why.\ |
| 516 | '''Azmodunk:''' I'll let you in on a little secret. It's actually never the shoes, they um... uh, don't fit.\ |
| 517 | '''Azmodunk:''' The Burning Court and the High Arena have been locked in the eternal playoffs for aeons. When the season ends, that "Win by 2" rule just has to go! |
| 518 | * Medivh has a few choice lines as well. |
| 519 | -->'''Medivh:''' No, you ''don't'' need to [[VideoGame/{{Diablo}} stay awhile and listen]]. You must have me confused with someone else.\ |
| 520 | '''Medivh:''' Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated. I mean, yes, I died, but people love to embellish.\ |
| 521 | '''Medivh:''' [[VideoGame/{{Warcraft}} In my day]], heroes only had ''one'' ultimate to choose from, and they were ''grateful'' for it!\ |
| 522 | '''Medivh:''' Atiesh, Greatstaff of the Guardian, is a unique and powerful artifact, passed down from Guardian to student for generations. ''[...]'' Pay no attention to [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft that Druid holding another]]. Or that Priest. Or Khadgar. In fact, ''[[EspeciallyZoidberg never]]'' pay attention to [[DeceptiveDisciple Khadgar]].\ |
| 523 | '''Medivh:''' An upside-down version of Karazhan, built underneath the real tower? That's absolutely insane! Only a madman would do such a... [[IResembleThatRemark oh... right]]. |
| 524 | * Despite being Darkness incarnate, Gul'dan has a few good lines himself. |
| 525 | -->'''Gul'dan:''' I once was the head of a secretive council that controlled the Orcish Horde from the shadows. I called it... ''[[ShapedLikeItself The Shadow Council]].'' ''*{{beat}}*'' Shut up! [[GiverOfLameNames Naming things is hard]].\ |
| 526 | '''Gul'dan:''' I'll have you know [[OlderThanTheyThink Death Knights were my idea first!]] And for the record, most of ''Ner'zhul's'' aren't even dead! It's ''complete lunacy!''\ |
| 527 | '''Gul'dan:''' You're saying there's an [[AlternateSelf alternate timeline version of me]] loose among the cosmos? [Wheezes with laughter] You are all so very doomed! [[Film/TheChroniclesOfRiddick They don't even know what to do with just]] ''[[Film/TheChroniclesOfRiddick one]]'' [[Film/TheChroniclesOfRiddick of me!]]\ |
| 528 | '''Gul'dan:''' The Hand of Gul'dan is a monument of fire and fury, a symbol the Horde's eternal allegiance to the Fel! And it is also the name of a spell. [[SuddenlyShouting WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT NAMING THINGS]]?! |
| 529 | * Ever wondered why Tyrael and Auriel use mounts to get around despite being able to fly? Auriel has that covered: |
| 530 | --> '''Auriel:''' Angels don't actually need wings to fly, you know. We just need to think some happy thoughts... ''(sigh)'' And that's why we ride horses.\ |
| 531 | '''Auriel:''' Al'Maiesh is the Cord of Hope. Through it flows of all my power. I tried going cordless for a while, but I had to recharge every few hours.\ |
| 532 | '''Auriel:''' What are you looking at? Do I have something on my face? ''({{beat}})'' [[TheFaceless Oh]]. Hmm, of course not. |
| 533 | ** One gets the feeling that she's got a ''lot'' of complaints saved up for [[TheFriendNobodyLikes Imperius]]: |
| 534 | --> '''Auriel:''' Tyrael. Auriel. Malthael. Itherael. And... [[OddNameOut Imperius]]. He always has to be the one that stands out.\ |
| 535 | '''Auriel:''' Someday, Imperius might actually calm down and think things through before he acts. He always is such a hothead. |
| 536 | * Alarak's snarking was not lost in his entry to the Nexus. |
| 537 | -->'''Alarak:''' I'd show more care when poking [[ScaryImpracticalArmor my armor]] if I were you. [[{{Pun}} A little prick]] can be quite the annoyance. |
| 538 | -->'''Alarak:''' The Nexus. A conflux of time and space where heroes and world clash. [[BitingTheHandHumor Sounds like underwhelming science fiction. I mean really, are you even]] ''[[BitingTheHandHumor trying]]'' [[BitingTheHandHumor anymore?]] |
| 539 | -->'''Alarak:''' [[BitingTheHandHumor Free to play is a delusion granted to the weak by the strong]]. ''Or so I've heard.''\ |
| 540 | '''Alarak:''' The difference between the Templar and the Tal'darim is simple: Templar use long-winded speeches to reach the heart of their warriors. ''We'' use a ''blade''.\ |
| 541 | '''Alarak:''' The Chain of Ascension wasn't the first thing we tried. I'll admit the Carousel of Omnipotence was fun, [[{{Pun}} but the idea never really went anywhere.]] |
| 542 | * Zarya, being from a [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} First-Person Shooter]], [[https://youtu.be/gBUS17xSK3E?t=21 doesn't understand why]] this is even allowed. |
| 543 | -->'''Zarya:''' Stop poking me! Why do they even allow this?\ |
| 544 | '''Zarya:''' Have you ever noticed you can't jump in the Nexus? That's odd, right? Gravity must be very strong here.\ |
| 545 | '''Zarya:''' [[RussianReversal In Mother Russia, this joke is tired of you.]]\ |
| 546 | '''Zarya:''' Some day I'd love to be in a Second-Person Shooter. You fire your particle grenade at the bad guy. You see them explode. [[{{Metaphorgotten}} You flex.]] |
| 547 | * Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan seems intent on making sure [[BetterThanABareBulb there's not a bare bulb in sight]]: |
| 548 | --> '''Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan:''' The goggles? [[GogglesDoNothing Yeah, they do nothing]].\ |
| 549 | '''Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan:''' It is nice to be human again, but you ''really'' can't make up your mind, can you, Blizzard? What's next, [[spoiler:a Xel'naga]]? (chuckles) [[ItWillNeverCatchOn That would be hilarious]]...\ |
| 550 | '''Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan:''' Yes, the idea of a [[AnimalMecha robotic Ultralisk]] is completely ridiculous, [[RuleOfCool but have you seen how cool it looks?]] |
| 551 | * Varian finally points out how jarring it is that in ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft'', he's just an exclusive card... ''for his ArchEnemy''. |
| 552 | -->'''Varian:''' Anduin got me to play Hearthstone once, it was a bit too fantastic for my tastes. What kind of game allows Garrosh to order me around? That's absurd! |
| 553 | ** Garrosh also gets to point it out. |
| 554 | -->'''Garrosh:''' I LOVE playing Hearthstone! I can send Varian to his death as many times as I want! Hahahaha! |
| 555 | ** Also, ''[[{{Pun}} Dad Jokes]]'' |
| 556 | --->'''Varian:''' I just thought of the perfect joke to tell Anduin. What do you call a Gnoll who won't share his forest? A Hogger! *Laughs* He's gonna love it! |
| 557 | * Ragnaros has a few witty lines, like he references his card from ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft''. |
| 558 | -->'''Ragnaros:''' Hurry up and end your turn! I want to deal some ''RANDOM DAMAGE''! |
| 559 | -->'''Ragnaros:''' I'm not shouting! [[NoIndoorVoice THIS IS MY INSIDE VOICE]]! |

| 561 | -->'''Ragnaros:''' Executus was incompetent, so I had to... ''[[{{Pun}} fire]]'' him. Heh. He didn't take it well. You could say he was... ''[[HurricaneOfPuns crushed]]!'' |
| 562 | -->'''Ragnaros:''' A game with an acronym like "HOTS" should have ''more fire'' in it. That's why I'm here! |
| 563 | -->'''Ragnaros:''' Soon, the enemy will have...a ''[[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft molten core]]''! |
| 564 | * Poke Greymane enough and he'll drop the following: |
| 565 | -->'''Greymane:''' You know, I've built the Gilnean wall to keep us isolated from outsiders. You're starting to making me remember why. |
| 566 | ** He also gives us this one, but only in [[EasterEgg Worgen form]]. |
| 567 | -->'''Greymane:''' When Gilnean dockworkers go on strike, it can be hard to keep the [[{{Pun}} wolves at bay]]! |
| 568 | * Hearthstone players, remember the glory days of Miracle Rogue? Well, Valeera shares your thoughts. |
| 569 | -->'''Valeera:''' I'm an excellent rogue, but I can't perform miracles. Not after that nerf, at least... |
| 570 | ** She also pokes fun at a [[RougeAnglesOfSatin very common misspelling]]. |
| 571 | -->'''Valeera:''' Don't worry, I'm both rouge and a rogue. So no matter how poorly you spell, you're still covered. |
| 572 | * Lucio's dirty little secret is revealed if you poke him enough: |
| 573 | -->'''Lucio:''' Uhh, don't tell anyone, but... I actually like some of [[Creator/DavidHasselhoff that stuff]] [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Reinhardt]] listens to. |
| 574 | ** He's also got [[PungeonMaster quite a few music puns]] saved up: |
| 575 | --> '''Lucio:''' Oh, I have to tell some jokes? Hmm, I guess I didn't get the ''note''. Hello? IsThisThingOn\ |
| 576 | '''Lucio:''' Do you think you could help me find the beat? I seem to have... ''dropped it''.\ |
| 577 | '''Lucio:''' Oh, sorry about those puns, by the way. I was worried they might fall ''flat''. Then I'd be in real ''treble''. ''([[MicDrop microphone feedback]])'' |
| 578 | ** The last quote before his lines repeat: |
| 579 | -->'''Lucio:''' If there's one thing an electronic musician knows, [[LampshadeHanging it's how to make a good loop]]. |
| 580 | * Zul'jin takes a moment to ponder where he keeps getting new throwing axes from. |
| 581 | -->'''Zul'jin:''' Where all de axes come from, anyway? I throw axe, I get new axe! Throw axe, new axe! Mmh. Dis some powerful voodoo. |
| 582 | * Cassia warns players of the danger of naming ultimates: |
| 583 | -->'''Cassia:''' Never call a Valkyrie's assistants the Music/RideOfTheValkyries. [[NeverHeardThatOneBefore They do NOT find it humorous.]] |
| 584 | ** And how did she gets there? |
| 585 | -->'''Cassia:''' Don't go [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture running at 88 miles per hour on a stormy night]], you might end up in the Nexus. |
| 586 | ** She also gets strangely philosophical, while bemoaning BreakableWeapons. |
| 587 | -->'''Cassia:''' Life is like a pristine armor, it's shiny and wonderful, but as soon as we get used to it, it breaks. |
| 588 | * E.T.C. making a reference to a certain band. |

| 592 | -->(Muffled murloc voice on phone) |
| 593 | -->'''E.T.C.''' Okay, tell ‘em I’m not here." |
| 594 | ** And then, one {{pun}} too many later... |
| 595 | --> '''E.T.C.:''' [[Series/SaturdayNightLive We need more cowbell]]- ''[Throws script.]'' Oh come on, that's all you got for me?!

''[Microphone feedback.]'' [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere I'll be in the tour bus.]] ''[Slams door.]'' |
| 596 | * Genji, with a parody of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ09xdxzIJQ Dragons cinematic]] from {{VideoGame/Overwatch}}. |
| 597 | -->'''Genji:''' My father once told me a story of two dragons, who were grounded for a week because they stayed out past curfew. *Sigh*... very subtle. |
| 598 | ** He also reflects on when Hanzo defeated him. |
| 599 | -->'''Genji:''' In hindsight, I should have listened when Hanzo said [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith he had the high ground]]. |
| 600 | ** On his DoubleJump: |
| 601 | -->'''Genji:''' When I used to play in the arcade, I thought double jumping was so unrealistic. How foolish I was. |
| 602 | * [[VideoGame/DiabloIII Prime Evil Diablo]] has some shockingly funny lines. |
| 603 | -->'''Diablo:''' Sometimes, three plus four equals '''one'''.\ |
| 604 | '''Diablo:''' No, the mouths on my shoulders do ''not'' speak. *Screaming is heard*. They do that. And they WON'T STOP!\ |
| 605 | '''Diablo:''' [[TastesLikeChicken Fear tastes of chicken!]] Everything tastes of chicken...\ |

| 609 | '''D.Va:''' Oh, is this like [[GameWithinAGame Fighters of the Storm 2]]? I used to main [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Garrosh]].\ |
| 610 | '''D.Va:''' Wasting left clicks doesn't count as raising your APM, ya know?\ |
| 611 | '''D.Va:''' Question from the chat: "[[FridgeLogic Where do all the MEKA you detonate come from?]]" Great question, [=CrypticSpoon=]! [[ShrugOfGod No idea.]] But thanks for asking! |
| 612 | * Malthael has normal Stop Poking Me eventually, but the first 6 or so times you click on him, all you get are [[TormentByAnnoyance increasingly annoyed grunts]]. |
| 613 | ** When you finally get to his actual quotes: |
| 614 | -->'''Malthael:''' I am become Death, destroyer of worlds!\ |
| 615 | '''Malthael:''' [[Film/BillAndTedsBogusJourney You might be a king or just a street sweeper, but sooner or later you dance with the reaper!]] |
| 616 | * Stukov gets a few funny ones in. |
| 617 | -->'''Stukov:''' Come to think of it, the last time I went to gym, [[MemeticMutation I did skip leg day]]. Oh, and "other arm" day.\ |
| 618 | '''Stukov:''' Is it hot to anyone else? Ugh, I wish I could take off this jacket.\ |
| 619 | '''Stukov:''' Don't click there. It sends shivers down what used to be my spine.\ |
| 620 | '''Stukov:''' Who put this "I'm with Stukov!" sign on my back? Was it you? Not funny.\ |
| 621 | '''Stukov:''' [[Manga/{{AKIRA}} Kaneda, who is that, and why do I want to crush him?]]\ |

| 623 | '''Stukov:''' [[Film/StreetFighter For my enemy, the day Stukov infested their team was the most horrifying experience of their lives!]] [[ButForMeItWasTuesday To me, it was Tuesday]]. |
| 624 | * Samuro isn't too shabby in the funny quotes department, between the references and puns: |
| 625 | --> '''Samuro:''' I try not to be angry, but sometimes I'm just ''beside myselves''! ([[LaughingAtYourOwnJokes laughter]])\ |
| 626 | '''Samuro:''' [[Film/ANewHope This is the weapon of a Blademaster. Not as clumsy or random as an axe. It is an elegant weapon, for a more... civilized age.]] [[note]]Also likely a TakeThat aimed at Grom Hellscream, who was a Blademaster in ''Warcraft III'' but wielded an axe.[[/note]]\ |
| 627 | '''Samuro:''' My best sparring matches are against my own mirror images. I call them "[[VideoGame/SamuraiShodown Samuro Shodown!]]"\ |
| 628 | '''Samuro:''' The most skilled Blademaster I have ever met was [[Franchise/{{Zatoichi}} a blind Orc who hid his blade within a cane]]. The next, uh, [[ComicBook/UsagiYojimbo was dressed as a rabbit]].\ |
| 629 | '''Samuro:''' Blademaster training is simple, yet effective. [[Manga/OnePunchMan One hundred cuts, one hundred stabs, one hundred parries, ten miles of wandering every single day]].\ |
| 630 | '''Samuro:''' No "dude", I cannot get you backstage passes! I am Samuro, ''not'' [[Level80EliteTaurenChieftain Samuro]]! Go ask E.T.C himself! |
| 631 | * Garrosh. |
| 632 | -->'''Garrosh:''' You scream. I scream. We all scream for HELLSCREAM!!! |

| 639 | * All the stops were pulled with Kel'Thuzad. |
| 640 | -->'''Kel'Thuzad:''' Ten years ago I was a nobody. Then, I started my own religion. Now I have a glorious floating citadel, and you could too, if you just read my book, ''Striking it Lich: The Easy Way''!\ |
| 641 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' At this point, The Cult of the Damned... is a CultClassic.\ |
| 642 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' You "heroes" were so busy looting your precious Tier 7, [[NotQuiteDead you completely forgot to look for my phylactery!]] Fools!\ |
| 643 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' King Arthas once forged a blade in my honour. He named it "Bloodsurge, the Blade of Agony"! ...Honestly it was a little much. I let him keep it.[[note]]The Lich King does in fact drop the described sword in the final raid encounter with him. Kel'thuzad says this with the gusto of someone who was given an awkwardly expensive courtship gift.[[/note]]\ |
| 644 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Wait, there's a Skeleton King ''and'' a Lich King? I hate having to choose between my personal life and my work!\ |
| 645 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Spreading the plague was a lot easier before everything went all "gluten-free".[[note]]Also a MythologyGag - in ''Warcraft III'', the Plague of Undeath reached Andorhal through infected grain.[[/note]]\ |
| 646 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Originally it took forty heroes to defeat me. I heard Arthas was beaten by ten. Makes you question who the ''real'' Lich King is, doesn't it?\ |
| 647 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' How DARE you poke the Archlich of Naxxramas, Lich Lord of the Plaguelands, Commander of the Dread Necropolis, Master and Founder of the Cult of the Damned, [-[[OldShame formerly of the Council of Six]]-], Summoner of Archimonde the Defiler, the Betrayer of Humanity, Hearthstone Enthusiast, and Majordomo to the Lich King himself: KEL'THU-FREAKING-ZAD!\ |
| 648 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Oh wait. I forgot "Creator of the Abomination". Can we take it again from the top? What do you mean, "No"? |
| 649 | * Dreadlord Jaina has some funny ones. |
| 650 | -->'''Jaina:''' [[ImplausibleDeniability Me? A dreadlord? I don't know what you're talking about.]]\ |
| 651 | '''Jaina:''' Wings, hooves, and horns? And we're 100% certain I'm not a Diablo skin? Well, if you say so.\ |
| 652 | '''Jaina:''' Bleh! *cough* Uhh, sorry. An old Nathrezim habit.\ |
| 653 | '''Jaina:''' [[Series/SesameStreet One! Two! Three! Three invasions of Azeroth! Ah, ah, ah!]] |
| 654 | * Ana has a few poking at her backstory. |
| 655 | -->'''Ana:''' It was foolish to think I could stay retired. If only I put more into my 401K...\ |
| 656 | '''Ana:''' Having faked my own death, I can never return to Overwatch. They are very serious about insurance fraud.\ |
| 657 | '''Ana:''' I just love this photo of Fareeha and me with the other members of Overwatch. It brings back memories of Jack and Gabriel and [REDACTED]. Oh, and I could never forgot [REDACTED]!\ |
| 658 | '''Ana:''' When Fareeha was young, she asked for a toy rifle. I told her she'd shoot her eye out. ...I regret that. |
| 659 | ** As well as her gameplay. |
| 660 | -->'''Ana:''' Healing people by shooting them? Ha, the wonders of modern medicine!\ |
| 661 | '''Ana:''' I'm one of the best snipers in the world, of course I can land headshots. I simply choose not to.\ |
| 662 | '''Ana:''' Be honest with me: do you think I'm boring? I keep putting people to sleep. |
| 663 | ** And one shoutout to another iconic Blizzard oldie. |
| 664 | -->'''Ana:''' You can learn a lot by listening to your elders. [[VideoGame/{{Diablo}} You should stay awhile and listen]]. |
| 665 | * Junkrat's lines are as insane as you'd imagine. Cue lots and lots of SuddenlyShouting and LaughingMad. |
| 666 | -->'''Junkrat:''' You like the grenade launcher? I made it meself. ... WHAT DO YA MEAN YA CAN TELL?!\ |
| 667 | '''Junkrat:''' [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Looks like Junkrat is blasting off again!]]\ |
| 668 | '''Junkrat:''' Sure, no one may notice the lil' happy faces I paint on my bombs, BUT THE DETAILS MATTER!\ |
| 669 | '''Junkrat:''' Do you like the explosives? They're all ''mine''! Get it? HAHAHAHA!\ |
| 670 | '''Junkrat:''' Look out, it's a trap! *sounds of a Steel Trap triggering* Told ya!\ |
| 671 | '''Junkrat:''' Dang, anyone got a spare tire? Mine's got a RIP in it. HAHAHAHHA! Oh, I'm precious.\ |
| 672 | '''Junkrat:''' ([[HollywoodToneDeaf singing]]) Where oh where has my Roadhog gone? Where oh where could he beeee?\ |
| 673 | '''Junkrat:''' These bombs aren't cheap ya know! They cost an arm and a leg! HAHAHA - I'm joking. They only cost me a leg! |
| 674 | * Alexstrasza: |
| 675 | -->'''Alexstrasza:''' I know we've been instructing you not to for years, but trust me; this one time, stand in the fire.\ |
| 676 | '''Alexstrasza:''' I'll let you in on a little secret; Ruby Dragons don't actually use Hearthstones. [[Film/TheWizardOfOz We just click our talons together a few times and we're home!]]\ |
| 677 | '''Alexstrasza:''' Of course Chromie arrived in the Nexus before me. Bronze Dragons have to be first at everything. [[{{Pun}} And last]]. [[TimeTravel And everything in between]].\ |
| 678 | '''Alexstrasza:''' Sylvanas may have worn it first, but you have to admit, ''I'' wore it better!\ |
| 679 | '''Alexstrasza:''' Wait, what do you mean I'm not allowed to do the "[[Film/JurassicPark Life, uhh, finds a way]]" joke? I'm a dragon. Puh. Thanks, Dehaka.\ |
| 680 | '''Alexstrasza:''' Life is good. Life is beautiful. Life is even strange. What it certainly is ''not'' however, is a highway.\ |
| 681 | '''Alexstrasza:''' You have no idea how hard it is to find jewelry that can change sizes. |
| 682 | * Hanzo has some quips. |
| 683 | -->'''Hanzo:''' Why does everyone think I'm a villain? ...[[BeardOfEvil Is it the goatee?]] It's the goatee, isn't it.\ |
| 684 | '''Hanzo:''' Every year I sneak into Shimada castle to honour my fallen brother. You'd think at this point the clan would just close the gate.\ |
| 685 | '''Hanzo:''' I've heard that [[ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} some archers use]] [[TrickArrow arrows that deploy nets or explosives]]. [[ComicBook/GreenArrow Some even]] [[ImprobableWeaponUser have boxing gloves!]] Haha! A true archer has no need for such parlor tricks! ...[[HypocriticalHumour Now where are my scatter and sonic arrows?]]\ |
| 686 | '''Hanzo:''' Sin of X = Cos of π/2-X! Simple trigonometry!\ |
| 687 | '''Hanzo:''' It's not my fault if people [[Memes/{{Overwatch}} want to pick me all the time]]. They simply recognize greatness when they see it.\ |
| 688 | '''Hanzo:''' They say that perfect is the enemy of good. [[CallBack So I guess I am a villain after all]]. [[EvilLaugh Ahahahaha]]! |
| 689 | * Blaze lights up the mic. |
| 690 | -->'''Blaze:''' Firebats used to have a reputation. Resocialized criminals, all of 'em. But my only crime is bein' ''too hot to handle''.\ |
| 691 | '''Blaze:''' Can't remember the first thing I set on fire. Heh, maybe that's why I keep doin' it.\ |
| 692 | '''Blaze:''' Buh, turns out I hate the smell of napalm in the morning.\ |
| 693 | '''Blaze:''' [[CallBack Zerg, they plump when ya cook 'em!]] But the Protoss? They're gamy, not enough meat on their bones. I'm gonna have to take my time learning how all the other weird things in this place cook up!\ |
| 694 | '''Blaze:''' Anyone got a favourite campfire song? Because I've got the campfire. Oh, and the s'mores! |
| 695 | * Not unlike Mecha Tassadar, Mecha Tyrael gets in plenty of robot jokes. |
| 696 | -->'''Tyrael:''' Justice = me!\ |
| 697 | '''Tyrael:''' Reckoning is at hand! ...once it finishes downloading. [-This wi-fi signal is terrible...-]\ |
| 698 | '''Tyrael:''' [[CallBack If Blizzard ever makes that transforming Mecha Tassadar]], I demand a Mecha Tyrael model kit! And it better be at least Master Grade.\ |
| 699 | '''Tyrael:''' Beep boop, friend. Beep boop.\ |
| 700 | '''Tyrael:''' The original plan to deal with the Kaijo was to block their path with a giant wall equipped with powerful laser turrets. It was a dam with guns on it. A '''[[Franchise/{{Gundam}} gun]]''' [[Franchise/{{Gundam}} dam]].\ |
| 701 | '''Tyrael:''' Warning: Humor circuits overheating. [[LamePunReaction Previous joke defective...]] |
| 702 | * Maiev: |
| 703 | -->'''Maiev:''' Nothing escapes my sight. Not even when I [[{{Pun}} blink]].\ |
| 704 | '''Maiev:''' I can never forgive Cordana for betraying us! [-But after dealing with Khadgar, I can see why she lost her sanity...-]\ |
| 705 | '''Maiev:''' I AM NOTHING LIKE ILLIDAN! [[IResembleThatRemark I merely do whatever is necessary to achieve my goals (even if it means making morally questionable descions) while growling about the hatred I felt for ten thousand years]].\ |
| 706 | '''Maiev:''' [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Betraying the kaldorei? That's an imprisoning. Consorting with demons? That's an imprisoning. Consuming the Skull of Gul'dan and becoming a demon? Oh, you better believe that's an imprisoning!]] |
| 707 | ** She gives this one about the events of ''Wolfheart''. |
| 708 | -->'''Maiev:''' So I murdered a few Highborne, tried to kill Malfurion, and was exiled from Darnassus. Can't you just drop it? [[CanonDiscontinuity Everyone else has]]. |
| 709 | ** Apparently Maiev has some... repressed feelings. This reads like IResembleThatRemark, but is delivered in [[ShipTease a very different way]]. |
| 710 | -->'''Maiev:''' What do you mean I'm obsessed with Illidan? It's not like I think about him every day, and every night... picturing his smug grin as I sharpen my glaive. Imagining how it would feel when I plunge it into his chest... right between those big, ''disgusting'' tattoos... leaning in close, to watch the light fade from his eyes. [{{Beat}}] Oh, I'm sorry? What were you saying? |
| 711 | ** Above quote in [[https://youtu.be/UolrSOezicg Source Filmmaker]].[[spoiler:That melon really had it coming.]] |
| 712 | * Even a total war-hardened badass like Fenix isn't afraid to tell a few jokes. |
| 713 | -->'''Fenix:''' [[Film/RoboCop1987 Drop your weapon! You have 15 seconds to comply!]]\ |
| 714 | '''Fenix:''' I am honoured to be made into a dragoon, but I wish the phase-smiths would clean my tank once in a while. [[MythologyGag I think I saw a fish in here!]]\ |
| 715 | '''Fenix:''' For the last time, I do not have a "Graviton Beam". You're thinking of a different Protoss Phoenix.\ |
| 716 | '''Fenix:''' Have you seen those new Immortals, with their torsos and their dual phase-disruptors? Hmm. In MY day, we had no torso and ONE phase disruptor! And we appreciated it!\ |
| 717 | '''Fenix:''' At my last stand in Antioch, I was ambushed by a Hydralisk. I could've easily slayed it, but my Psi-blade... ceased to... function -I-I-I swear that never happened before!\ |
| 718 | '''Fenix:''' This exo-skeleton can be extremely hard to control. [[ArtificialStupidity Do not judge a dragoon by the path they choose to walk!]] |
| 719 | ** Did you think Talandar's recollection of Fenix's memories as a bit unbelievable? There's a reason for that. |
| 720 | -->'''Fenix:''' Before I fell to the Zerg, Judicator Aldaris sent me to Glacius to have my memories preserved. [[SelfServingMemory I... may have altered the archives to embellish a few of my accomplishments]]. I'm sure no one will notice, right? |
| 721 | * Deckard Cain, on the topic of [[BaseBreakingCharacter Leah's]] characterization: |
| 722 | -->'''Deckard:''' Has anyone seen my dear niece Leah? She's brave, kind, and [[FlatEarthAtheist disinclined to believe in any of my stories]]. Hmm... |
| 723 | ** Then he breaks it down [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HfmB4r2Fco like old times]]. |
| 724 | -->'''Deckard:''' My name is Deckard Cain and I'm in the Nexus! Our enemies are many but they'll never best us! If I find ol' Diablo, [[AdaptationalBadass even I might take him down]] - You should always remember that we're in a different town! Wika wika wika, Horadrim! Ho-ho-Horadrim in da hoooouse! |
| 725 | * Yrel finally gets to tell us her [[AbortedArc dark secret]]! [[Film/TheSixthSense She sees]] ''[[ISeeDeadPeople dead people]]''. Just kidding. The dark secret part, not the seeing dead people part. Draenei seeing dead people is normal (see: Auchindoun). |
| 726 | ** She's a bit... ''touchy'' about being PutOnABus for the ''Legion'' expansion... |
| 727 | -->'''Yrel:''' I'm not upset that I wasn't invited to join the Paladin class order. Or that ''everyone'' jetted off to Argus without me! [[SarcasmMode Nooo, I'm not upset about that at all!]] Hrmph! It's not like after all our efforts on Draenor, the Legion just... invaded ''anyway'', or that I was left behind while everyone joined the Army of Light, ''to fight against [[SuddenlyShouting my people's greatest enemy WITHOUT ME!]]'' Can you imagine if that happened?! I'D BE '''FURIOUS!''' |
| 728 | ** Apparently [[WhatCouldHaveBeen Farahlon]] is a breathtaking place. |
| 729 | --> '''Yrel:''' Have you ever been to Farahlon? It's so beautiful! I pity anyone who has never been able to travel there. [[TrollingCreator What a cruel fate it would be to hear about its wonders without ever having a chance to see it with your own eyes]]. Oh well, anyway, I will send you a S.E.L.F.I.E. next time I'm there. |
| 730 | ** Oh, and [[HurricaneOfPuns puns]]. |
| 731 | --> '''Yrel:''' Learning how to wield holy power effectively can be tricky. It requires a ''light'' touch. [[DontExplainTheJoke Ah? Ahhh?]]\ |
| 732 | '''Yrel:''' I hate it when people make fun of my hooves. Or my tail. Or my horns! It really gets my goat. |
| 733 | * Whitemane has some cheeky references. |
| 734 | -->'''Whitemane:''' I know we're supposed to call everyone heroes these days, but Renault will always remain my [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends champion]].\ |
| 735 | '''Whitemane:''' [[Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit I'm not bad, I'm just rendered that way.]]\ |
| 736 | '''Whitemane:''' We Whitemanes have never approved of the Greymanes' rule, [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} they're too neutral. With Blackmanes you know where they stand, but with Greymanes, who knows? It sickens me.]]\ |
| 737 | '''Whitemane:''' [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus NO ONE EXPECTS THE SCARLET INQUISITION!]] |
| 738 | * Mephisto is the Lord of Hatred. Three guess what he likes to talk about. |
| 739 | -->'''Mephisto:''' Even in the depths of the Burning Hells, there is an edict that is unquestionable: [[Music/TaylorSwift Haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate!]]\ |
| 740 | '''Mephisto:''' Is there hatred in your soul? ({{Beat}}) Would you... like there to be?\ |
| 741 | '''Mephisto:''' Hate is a strong word, but I really, really, '''really''' don't like you. |
| 742 | ** A few lines about his abilities. |
| 743 | -->'''Mephisto:''' Lightning Nova? Very well. *electricity sparks and Nova dies*\ |
| 744 | '''Mephisto:''' I don't "throw shade". My shade stays precisely where I tell it too. If anything, I throw myself. |
| 745 | ** And don't forget, Mephisto ''is'' a dad. |
| 746 | -->'''Mephisto:''' I tell everyone who dates my daughter the same thing: While my daughter and I may not see eye to eye, if you hurt her, I will impale you with barbed hooks for all of eternity! ...So, it's Inarius' fault really. |
| 747 | ** Even the Lords of Hell avoid stepping on the toes of legal teams. |
| 748 | -->'''Mephisto:''' I. Am. Mephisto! '''''LORD OF HATRED!''''' [-[[RattlingOffLegal Any resemblance to]] [[Creator/MarvelComics other fictional demonic entities]] [[MotorMouth is entirely coincidental.]]-] |
| 749 | * Mal'Ganis is [[FourthWallObserver well aware]] what we like to do with these quotes. |
| 750 | -->'''Mal'Ganis:''' Are you enjoying this, mortal? Wasting valuable time clicking on me so you can hear these "jokes"? [[MediumAwareness Uhh, you're not recording this, are you?]] |
| 751 | ** There's also this. |
| 752 | -->'''Mal'Ganis:''' Have you heard the one about the Nathrezim baker? [[{{Pun}} He was a BREADLORD!]] ({{beat}}) No, seriously. That's why we used infected grain to spread the plague of undeath. It was his thing. |
| 753 | * The first Nexus-born hero proves she can throw down with the best of the. |
| 754 | -->'''Orphea:''' You probably have some questions about the Realms. But if I answered all of them, [[TeasingCreator you'd just be bored]].\ |
| 755 | '''Orphea:''' I'd never been to Dragon Shire until I ran away from home. It's so green there... [[BaitAndSwitch I think]] [[GoodHurtsEvil I'm allergic to it]].\ |
| 756 | '''Orphea:''' The best thing about this place is the same as the worst thing; it's always changing, and you'll never know who you'll next meet. Or fight. Or kill.\ |
| 757 | '''Orphea:''' ...But the Raven Lord shall walk his tower... [[Literature/TheRaven nevermore]]. |
| 758 | * Despite being fairly serious, Imperius is not without laugh: |
| 759 | -->'''Imperius:''' You're making me angry, [[Music/ImagineDragons I'm fired up and I'm tired of the way things have been!]]\ |
| 760 | '''Imperius:''' If you ask me, discretion is the ''worst'' part of valor.\ |
| 761 | '''Imperius:''' I am the only angel in the Heavenly Halls with blazing wings of Valor! [[BreakingTheFourthWall Pay no attention to the mortals who pre-ordered Reaper of Souls]]\ |
| 762 | '''Imperius:''' [[WesternAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven All dogs go to heaven]], except for zombie dogs. Blame the Nephalem. I do.\ |
| 763 | '''Imperius:''' All mortals should be exterminated, [[MemeticMutation change my mind]].\ |
| 764 | '''Imperius:''' Listen closely, I am not wrath, I am wroth. Wrath is a noun, wroth is an adjective, know the difference!\ |
| 765 | '''Imperius:''' If you wish [[Literature/TheBible to turn water into wine]], seek the Archangel of Fermentation, but be warned; he stinks to High Heaven.\ |
| 766 | '''Imperius:''' Why [[InTheHood wear a hood]] when you can wear a helmet? It's far more metal.\ |
| 767 | '''Imperius:''' Enough! ''[whistles and steam sounds]'' Can't you tell I'm running out of steam? |
| 768 | * Anduin has a few: |
| 769 | ** He does not like being poked. At all. |
| 770 | -->'''Anduin:''' Please, now is not the time for that. Also, it will ''never'' be the time for that. |
| 771 | ** He realizes his peace-seeking nature might run into a bit of a problem: |
| 772 | -->'''Anduin:''' There will be peace. One day. At least I think there will. [[BreakingTheFourthWall How many WoW expansions are left again?]] [[OhCrap ….Oh… ohh.. oh.]] Well. Well then. |
| 773 | ** Despite being a gentle soul, he is fairly competitive about VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}}. |
| 774 | -->'''Anduin:''' The Light will abolish the Shadow in all its forms! I personally would never resort to its dark methods.\ |
| 775 | Except when playing ''Hearthstone''. Sometimes that game brings out the worst in me.\ |
| 776 | \ |
| 777 | '''Anduin:''' In Pandaren board games the goal is for both players to win. In ''Hearthstone'' the goal is for me to beat you to death. [[BrainwashedAndCrazy With your own minions.]] |
| 778 | * How does Deathwing react to the existence of [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim another villainous black dragon]] with a lot of similarities to him? Not too well, apparently. |
| 779 | --> '''Deathwing:''' People keep saying that they're outraged at another infamous black dragon for burning a city full of innocent people to ash. ''[[EvilerThanThou One city.]]'' [[TakeThat Pfft, amateur.]] |
| 780 | ** Also, Deathwing making ''dad jokes''. |
| 781 | ---> '''Deathwing:''' What is a dragon's favorite car? A ''Wyrmrest Accord!'' Ba-dum bum! [{{beat}}] Look, with the number of whelps I've sired, I think I've earned the right to make a dad joke or two! |
| 782 | ** He also talks himself up as if promoting a Wrestling/WrestleMania event. |
| 783 | ---> '''Deathwing:''' Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! Get ready, Azeroth, for the biggest Cataclysm you've ever seen as Deathwing the Destroyer breaks the world into smoldering ruins! Don't miss it! |

| 786 | [[folder:Kill Quotes]] |
| 787 | * Each character gets some special kill quotes when dealing with certain enemies. Some are listed below and more can be found [[http://www.heroesnexus.com/forums/heroes-general/general-discussion/135-unique-hero-kill-voiceovers here]], though the list is dated (March 2014). |
| 788 | -->'''Sonya:''' ''[killing Stitches]'' [[HypocriticalHumor Put some clothes on!]]\ |
| 789 | '''ETC:''' ''[killing Diablo]'' Diablo's dead? Well, I guess that makes me a Slayer.\ |

| 797 | '''Infested Tychus:''' ''[after killing Arthas]'' ''Swaaaaarrrrrmmm! Scooouuuurrrrge!'' Same crap to me...\ |
| 798 | '''Azmodan:''' ''[killing a Nephalem]'' [[SitcomArchNemesis I knew I would get you eventually]], Nephalem!\ |
| 799 | '''Diablo:''' ''[killing Uther]'' Perhaps you require more ''training'', Uther.\ |
| 800 | '''Abathur:''' ''[killing an undead hero]'' Necrotized tissue... yet animated. Perplexing.\ |
| 801 | '''Anub'arak:''' ''[killing Abathur]'' I eat worms like you for breakfast!\ |
| 802 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[killing Abathur]'' Big grub, good for eat? I hope so!\ |
| 803 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''[killing Uther]'' Ha ha! Next time, you might wanna [[MythologyGag bubble-hearth]]! Pfft, ye loser!\ |
| 804 | '''Ana:''' ''[killing Widowmaker Nova]'' *Mocking tone* [[BorrowedCatchphrase One shot, one kill!]]\ |
| 805 | '''Zarya:''' ''[killing Anub'arak]'' Almost as big as Siberian beetles! ...almost.\ |
| 806 | '''Ragnaros:''' ''[killing a fire-based hero]'' FOOL! YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD BEST ME WITH '''FIRE'''?\ |
| 807 | '''Zul'jin:''' ''[killing a Night Elf]'' Night elf? Day elf? Now ya ''dead'' elf!\ |

| 810 | '''Maiev:''' ''[killing Zeratul]'' I know [[MovesetClone all your tricks]], Zeratul!\ |
| 811 | '''Warsong Johanna:''' ''[killing human Johanna]'' Did that human have my face? I must be seeing things!\ |
| 812 | '''Deathwing:''' ''[killing Ragnaros]'' You will always be [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft a tier]] [[{{Pun}} below me]], Firelord. |
| 813 | * Some pairs of Heroes with kill quotes against each other are extra funny. |
| 814 | ** Raynor and Tychus make {{Call Back}}s to ''VideoGame/StarCraftIIWingsOfLiberty'', with Tychus' doubling as an IronicEcho. |
| 815 | -->'''Raynor:''' How many times I gotta kick your ass, Tychus?\ |
| 816 | '''Tychus:''' For the most wanted man in the sector, you ain't that hard to kill. |
| 817 | ** Falstad and Muradin rib each other. |
| 818 | -->'''Falstad:''' What's wrong, Muradin? Didn't ye learn to duck?\ |
| 819 | '''Muradin:''' Ah, hill dwarves. Big talk, small hammers. |
| 820 | ** Azmodan and the Primes indulge their EvilerThanThou SiblingRivalry, complete with Diablo [[PretenderDiss dissing]] Azmodan for being a BigBadWannabe. |
| 821 | -->'''Azmodan:''' Consider this a permanent exile!\ |
| 822 | '''Diablo:''' Now we see why you are a ''Lesser'' Evil!\ |
| 823 | '''Mephisto:''' The Prime Evils reign supreme! |
| 824 | * Some generic kill quotes are amusing too: |
| 825 | -->'''Nova:''' Now who's a ghost?\ |
| 826 | '''Nova:''' Ha! ''[blows kiss]''\ |
| 827 | '''Muradin:''' I've met ''blood elves'' tougher than you!\ |
| 828 | '''Muradin:''' Next time, laddie, watch yer back!\ |
| 829 | '''Diablo:''' I'll SeeYouInHell!\ |
| 830 | '''Thrall:''' *chuckle* I expected more!\ |
| 831 | '''Rexxar:''' Misha! You don't know where that's been!\ |
| 832 | '''Chromie:''' If it's any consolation, you'll be alive again soon!\ |
| 833 | '''Stukov:''' I am somewhat jealous...\ |
| 834 | '''Kael'thas:''' Oh, get up! I... Oh my. Are you dead already?\ |
| 835 | '''Gall:''' Yes! Kill them all! / '''Cho:''' Uh, what he said. |
| 836 | * This one didn't make it into the final product, but it's still pretty funny. |
| 837 | -->'''Kael'thas:''' ''[after killing [[BlindSeer Illidan]]]'' Should have seen that coming. ''[beat]'' Oh, right. |
| 838 | * Diablo [[BorrowedCatchphrase stealing Tychus' lines]]. |
| 839 | -->'''Diablo:''' Burning Hells... It's about time! |
| 840 | ** Mephisto gets one as well, towards Illidan. |
| 841 | -->'''Mephisto:''' Feel the hatred of INFINITE years! |
| 842 | * Gazlowe reminds us that he's still a goblin at heart. |
| 843 | -->'''Gazlowe:''' ''[after killing Sgt. Hammer]'' Oh, man! It hurts to bust up something so beautiful!\ |
| 844 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''(scoring a kill)'' Hey, you don't need your wallet anymore, right? |
| 845 | * An unimpressed Malfurion dismisses Arthas. |
| 846 | -->'''Malfurion:''' *scoffs* Brat. |
| 847 | * The Mecha Tassadar skin from the Kaiju series of skins: |
| 848 | -->'''Tassadar:''' Apocalypse... Cancelled!\ |
| 849 | '''Tassadar:''' Denial of service!\ |
| 850 | '''Tassadar:''' Initiate celebratory subroutines... Yay! |
| 851 | * Rexxar has one that most Hearthstone players should be familiar with. |
| 852 | --> '''Rexxar:''' Heh. Right in the face. |
| 853 | * Xul is pretty unimpressed with Azmodan. |
| 854 | --> '''Xul:''' Hmph... Duriel was tougher. And he was a giant maggot. |
| 855 | ** Xul also has a great line for those who loved to [=PvP=] in ''Diablo II''. |
| 856 | --> '''Xul:''' ''(sing-song)'' I've got your ear! |
| 857 | ** Valla also gets a line to this effect; bonus points if it plays after taking down Xul. |
| 858 | --> '''Valla:''' Oh, well, I believe you dropped an ear. |
| 859 | * The Lost Vikings have one for killing Abathur. |
| 860 | --> '''Erik:''' What kind of alien was that?\ |
| 861 | '''Olaf:''' I don't know... [[NoFourthWall I think I saw it at Blizzcon]]. |
| 862 | * Both Morales and Genji get pretty upset if they kill Li Li or Chen. |
| 863 | --> '''Lt. Morales:''' [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone I can't believe I killed a panda!]]\ |
| 864 | '''Genji:''' Talking pandas? ...feels like I'm the bad guy this time. |
| 865 | * D.Va gets one for killing each of the Starcraft races. |
| 866 | --> '''Killing a Protoss:''' Protoss: So OP.\ |
| 867 | '''Killing a Terran:''' Terran: So OP.\ |
| 868 | '''Killing a Zerg:''' [[RuleOfThree Zerg: So OP.]] |
| 869 | ** D.Va actually has two "gets killed" quotes where she will let out a death groan and call her assailant a cheater with her final dying gasp. Enemy players who nailed her do actually get to hear this. |
| 870 | -->'''D.Va:''' *death noise* Hax... |
| 871 | -->'''D.Va:''' You...cheater... |
| 872 | * Chromie pokes fun at Gul'Dan's status as a CompositeCharacter: |
| 873 | -->'''Chromie:''' Wait, was that main timeline's Gul'dan, or the alternate one? |
| 874 | * Kel'Thuzad: |
| 875 | ** He settles the nickname debate once and for all. |
| 876 | -->'''Killing Kael'thas:''' There's only room for one KT around here! |
| 877 | ** He mistakes Tyrael for something else. |
| 878 | -->'''Kel'Thuzad:''' Wait, was that val'kyr missing a face? |
| 879 | ** Taking down Leoric? |
| 880 | -->'''Kel'Thuzad:''' No, '''you''' kneel! |
| 881 | * Junkrat has one for Genji: |
| 882 | -->'''Junkrat:''' [[AscendedMeme Turns out you actually did need healing that time!]] |
| 883 | * Gul'dan has trouble with his stuff getting stolen. |
| 884 | -->'''Illidan:''' I'm taking your skull. Deal with it.\ |
| 885 | '''Maiev:''' I'm taking your Shadow Orb! |
| 886 | * After being farmed for loot for nearly two decades, Mephisto ''finally'' gets his sweet revenge. |
| 887 | -->'''Mephisto:''' ''[after killing a Diablo II hero]'' Nothing of value. I'll have to kill you again. And again. AND AGAIN! |
| 888 | [[/folder]] |
| 889 | |
| 890 | [[folder:Game Openers]] |
| 891 | * Depending on the makeup of a team, characters may use unique lines before the match starts. |
| 892 | * The Nephalem still hate Diablo and Azmodan, and the feeling is mutual. |
| 893 | -->'''Diablo:''' Do not become a liability, Nephalem!\ |
| 894 | '''Sonya:''' Worry about yourself, hellspawn! |
| 895 | |
| 896 | -->'''Valla:''' When this is over, you're next!\ |
| 897 | '''Azmodan:''' Your death will be sweeter... ''after'' this little diversion! |
| 898 | ** Xul is much more Snarky about it. |
| 899 | --> '''Diablo:''' I would destroy you if I could.\ |
| 900 | '''Xul:''' I know... too bad you can't. Or have you forgotten [[VideoGame/DiabloII the last time]]? |
| 901 | * The Prime Evils and Azmodan can't agree on who's in charge. |
| 902 | -->'''Azmodan:''' We must take this world for our own!\ |
| 903 | '''Diablo:''' The Prime Evils take no commands from you! |
| 904 | |
| 905 | -->'''Diablo:''' Obey me and follow!\ |
| 906 | '''Mephisto:''' Follow my orders Azmodan, as you did in ages immemorial.\ |
| 907 | '''Azmodan:''' You lead us only to failure, brother! I make my ''own'' way! |
| 908 | * Raynor and Nova get into a nicknaming contest. |
| 909 | -->'''Raynor:''' Ready for this, Blondie?\ |
| 910 | '''Nova:''' More than you are, Marshal. |
| 911 | * Nova doesn't appreciate Tychus [[EatingTheEyeCandy looking at her assets]]. |
| 912 | -->'''Nova:''' [[MyEyesAreUpHere Keep your eyes on the battlefield, Tychus!]]\ |
| 913 | '''Tychus:''' [[RefugeInAudacity I never make promises I don't intend to keep.]] |
| 914 | * Sgt. Hammer teases Tychus about his {{BFG}}. |
| 915 | -->'''Sgt. Hammer:''' Nice [[GatlingGood gun]]. [[CompensatingForSomething Compensatin' fer somethin'?]]\ |
| 916 | '''Tychus:''' [[ActuallyPrettyFunny *chuckle*]] [[LittleNo No.]] |
| 917 | ** Made even funnier by the revelation that [[http://i.imgur.com/kPtVXtl.png Tychus was being serious.]] |
| 918 | * Nephalem Heroes wonder if their enemies are more powerful because there's two of them. Most hope it ain't so, but [[BloodKnight Sonya]] hopes it ''is''. |
| 919 | * Leoric and Johanna: |
| 920 | -->'''Leoric:''' Crusader, it seems that fate has decreed that we... fight together.\ |
| 921 | '''Johanna:''' I've kept worse company, I suppose. Have you met [[HandsomeLech Lyndon]]? |
| 922 | * Anub'arak and Zagara make awkward attempts to court one another. |
| 923 | -->'''Anub'arak:''' Nice legs.\ |
| 924 | '''Zagara:''' Creep. |
| 925 | |
| 926 | -->'''Zagara:''' You know... you ''would'' make a powerful addition to my swarm.\ |
| 927 | '''Anub'arak:''' I am already shackled to the will of a monarch! I have no need of another! |
| 928 | * After the gates open, the heroes usually shout out "Woo-hoo!" or something like that. Sylvanas? [[FlatJoy "Yaay..."]] |
| 929 | * Olaf sees Muradin's horned helmet and gets [[HornyVikings the wrong idea]]. |
| 930 | -->'''Olaf:''' Ho! What kind of Viking are you?\ |
| 931 | '''Muradin:''' Sonny, I'm a ''Mountain'' King, not a ''Viii''-king... whatever that is. |
| 932 | ** On the other hand, the three of them seem kind of familiar to him. |
| 933 | -->'''Muradin:''' Uh, you boys ever been [[MythologyGag to the Badlands]]?\ |
| 934 | '''Baelog:''' Well, we certainly haven't been to any ''good'' lands! *chuckle* |
| 935 | ** Olaf also doesn't seem to be aware of what kind of "butcher" that [[ImAHumanitarian The Butcher]] is at first. |
| 936 | -->'''Olaf:''' Hello! I'd like some cold cuts please.\ |
| 937 | '''Olaf:''' Wait a minute... You're not a real butcher, are you? |
| 938 | * Lunara and Cho'gall. |
| 939 | -->'''Lunara:''' How dare you show your face here?! Uh... [[MultipleHeadCase faces]].\ |
| 940 | '''Gall:''' [[ActuallyPrettyFunny Ahahahaha!]]\ |
| 941 | '''[[TheComicallySerious Cho]]:''' Don't laugh at that, you idiot! |
| 942 | * Cho is NotSoAboveItAll. |
| 943 | -->'''Gall:''' Seal your wordhole, unbeliever!\ |
| 944 | '''Cho:''' [[HehHehYouSaidX Heh, "wordhole". *chuckle*]] |
| 945 | * Johanna [[NeverLiveItDown won't let Azmodan forget his habit of revealing his plans,]] [[GeneralFailure or how she defeated him.]] |
| 946 | -->'''Johanna:''' Don't reveal our plans to our foes. I mean it! Not a word.\ |
| 947 | '''Johanna:''' What? Is that all? I expected a discourse on how I'd never defeat you... again. |
| 948 | ** She also sasses ''Mephisto''. |
| 949 | -->'''Mephisto:''' A Zakarum warrior? Hmmm. My flesh is decaying. Yours would serve nicely.\ |
| 950 | '''Johanna:''' Uh, uh, uh! Flattery will get you nowhere. |
| 951 | |
| 952 | -->'''Johanna:''' The Lord of Hatred? Very impressive, I'm sure.\ |
| 953 | '''Mephisto:''' You Zakarum are so very impressionable, after all. |
| 954 | * If Tyrael and one of the Great Evils are on a team together: |
| 955 | --> '''Tyrael:''' Can you put aside our differences and fight, demon?\ |
| 956 | '''Diablo:''' Can ''you?''\ |
| 957 | '''Azmodan:''' I would not call what you do "fighting". |
| 958 | ** Hilariously, both normally hammy demons are completely deadpan in their response. |
| 959 | * Tassadar and Zeratul are not particularly fond of being allied with the Queen of Blades. |
| 960 | -->'''Kerrigan:''' I am not your enemy, Tassadar. Things have changed.\ |
| 961 | '''Tassadar:''' Yes. You radiate a purple glow now. [[SarcasmMode How very different.]]\ |
| 962 | '''Mecha Tassadar:''' I do not know you, alien... creature... yet somehow, I doubt that! |
| 963 | |
| 964 | -->'''Kerrigan:''' Ready for some fun, Zeratul?\ |
| 965 | '''Zeratul:''' You and I interpret this "fun" very differently. |
| 966 | * Zeratul and Raynor reminisce on the last time they fought side-by-side, but Raynor appears to get lost along the way. |
| 967 | -->'''Zeratul:''' Friend Raynor. We have not fought together since the Great War.\ |
| 968 | '''Raynor:''' ...Man. I miss that [[CoolBike Vulture.]] |
| 969 | ** Even funnier if Zeratul or Raynor has the Vulture mount equipped at that very moment. |
| 970 | * Artanis hilariously thinks Anub'arak is a new type of Zerg: |
| 971 | -->'''Artanis:''' What kind of new Zerg abomination is this!?\ |
| 972 | '''Anub'arak:''' Pardon me? |
| 973 | ** [[HilariousInHindsight Made funnier]] by the release of the Anub'alisk skin... and even more so if Anub'arak happens to have the skin equipped. |
| 974 | ** And likewise with Azmodan. |
| 975 | -->'''Artanis:''' What kind of new Zerg abomination is this!?\ |
| 976 | '''Azmodan:''' You fail to amuse me. |
| 977 | * Zeratul and Arthas normally have a rather somber dialogue. Crown Prince Arthas on the other hand... |
| 978 | -->'''Zeratul:''' I sense in [[BigBad you]], a darkness that will consume all worlds. |
| 979 | -->'''Arthas:''' How perceptive of you. |
| 980 | -->'''Crown Prince Arthas:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Well it's been that kind of week]]. |
| 981 | * Kharazim and Leoric: |
| 982 | --> '''Kharazim:''' Is there no rest for you, mad king?\ |
| 983 | '''Leoric:''' I prefer "the Black King". It's much more ominous.\ |
| 984 | '''Space Lord Leoric:''' I am not who you think I am, human. Consider yourself fortunate you do not know me. |
| 985 | * This absolutely priceless exchange between Greymane and Rehgar: |
| 986 | --> '''Greymane:''' Is that a wolf's pelt on your head?!\ |
| 987 | '''Rehgar:''' [[BluntYes Yes]]. Now deal with it or shut up, your choice. |
| 988 | * Greymane gets a savage exchange with Lunara. It's especially satisfying for anyone who gets annoyed by [[AlphaBitch her attitude]]. |
| 989 | --> '''Lunara:''' Ah, the man who's almost a wolf.\ |
| 990 | '''Greymane:''' [[InsultBackfire Ah, the woman who's almost a]] ''[[InsultBackfire deer.]]'' |
| 991 | ** On the flipside, Lunara can give just as good as she gets. |
| 992 | --> '''Greymane:''' Fear not, dryad. I am more in tune with nature than other humans.\ |
| 993 | '''Lunara:''' You aren't going to mark the trees as territory, are you? |
| 994 | * Ragnaros and Uther: |
| 995 | --> '''Ragnaros:''' [[NoIndoorVoice ALL SHALL BURN!]]\ |
| 996 | '''Uther:''' And there goes my hearing. |
| 997 | * Varian and Valeera, mixed with a CallBack. |
| 998 | --> '''Varian:''' Valeera! Remember any of our old strategies?\ |
| 999 | '''Valeera:''' Watching you kill everything is not a strategy. |
| 1000 | * Genji has a pretty funny one with Samuro. |
| 1001 | --> '''Samuro:''' It is fortunate our paths cross today. I look forward to this battle!\ |
| 1002 | '''Genji:''' As do I, uh... green... blademaster... dude? |
| 1003 | * D.Va meets Kerrigan. |
| 1004 | --> '''D.Va:''' Kerrigan!? You're REAL!?! [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee I AM SUCH A HUGE FAN!!!!]]\ |
| 1005 | '''Kerrigan:''' Uhh... thanks? |
| 1006 | ** She has two pretty good generic lines for other Starcraft Heroes. |
| 1007 | --> '''D.Va:''' No way! A-Are you from Starcraft?! THIS IS SO CRAZY!!!\ |
| 1008 | '''D.Va:''' No one's going to believe I met someone from Starcraft! [[{{Beat}} ...]]Can we take a selfie? |
| 1009 | ** Fenix gets a response for both and line for her |
| 1010 | --> '''Fenix:''' Starcraft? No, I am from Aiur.\ |
| 1011 | '''Fenix:''' I see you too fight within an armored exoskeleton [[{{Beat}} ...]]But you can exit yours at anytime. *sigh* |
| 1012 | ** Tychus gets a response to the latter one. |
| 1013 | --> '''Tychus:''' Uhh, sure but... what's a selfie? |
| 1014 | *** Tychus also has a special dialogue for her: |
| 1015 | --> '''Tychus:''' Hey! Impressive mech, kid. I gotta know, you got one in blue?\ |
| 1016 | '''D.Va:''' Hey! Hands off! |
| 1017 | ** She also gets a special one with Alarak. |
| 1018 | --> '''Alarak:''' Ugh, the Terrans. Were there no viable allies?\ |
| 1019 | '''D.Va:''' So salty. |
| 1020 | ** On the other hand, she and Sgt. Hammer have a differing opinions on what makes a good tank. |
| 1021 | --> '''D.Va:''' You call that a tank? *giggle* Let me show you what a tank can do!\ |
| 1022 | '''Sgt. Hammer:''' Hey, I got an idea: why don't you go about 30 yards thataway and stand ''real still''? |
| 1023 | * Tychus and Zarya compare "guns". |
| 1024 | --> '''Zarya:''' Nice mini-gun. What do you say you let me give the thing a try some time?\ |
| 1025 | '''Tychus:''' If I can take that laser thing there for a spin, you got yourself a deal! |
| 1026 | * Unsurprisingly, Kel'Thuzad gets a few great lines. |
| 1027 | -->'''Kel'Thuzad:''' This "infestation" of yours is too similar to the plague for my liking.\ |
| 1028 | '''Stukov:''' Get lost! You can't compare with my powers.[[note]]Some of the Undead mechanics in Warcraft III were based on the Zerg faction in Starcraft, most notably having to spread infested (or in Warcraft's case, plagued) terrain before you could build on it[[/note]] |
| 1029 | |
| 1030 | -->'''Jaina:''' If it isn't the traitor, Kel'Thuzad.\ |
| 1031 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Ahh, Antonidas' lapdog. How is he, by the way? Still dead? |
| 1032 | |
| 1033 | -->'''Uther:''' You know, [[Creator/MichaelMcConnohie you sound awfully familiar...]]\ |
| 1034 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' What are you implying, paladin? That all necromancers sound alike?![[note]]Adding an extra layer of joke on that, Michael [=McConnohie=] not only voices Uther and KT, but also Xul and The Lich King, the other two necromancers.[[/note]] |
| 1035 | |
| 1036 | -->'''Valeera:''' Watch. Your. Back.\ |
| 1037 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' [[CallBack Okay.]] [[VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}} I. Will.]] |
| 1038 | * Nobody likes Junkrat. |
| 1039 | -->'''Junkrat:''' Anyone want some barbecue? Huehahuehahue!\ |
| 1040 | '''ETC:''' Not happenin', bro. |
| 1041 | |
| 1042 | -->'''Junkrat:''' Whadda bunch a' misfits and freaks we got here. I love it!\ |
| 1043 | '''Stukov:''' Your permission to speak has been revoked. |
| 1044 | |
| 1045 | -->'''Junkrat:''' Think I could 'ave a look at one of those "pulse bombs" of yours?\ |
| 1046 | '''Tracer:''' Please don't. Winston would never let me hear the end of it. |
| 1047 | |
| 1048 | -->'''Kel'Thuzad:''' You? Ahaha... haha! AHAHAHAHA!\ |
| 1049 | '''Junkrat:''' ...Rude. |
| 1050 | |
| 1051 | -->'''Leoric:''' Do not trouble yourself. My expertise should more than make up for your shortcomings.\ |
| 1052 | '''Junkrat:''' Ah, good! I was hopin' I could take a break! |
| 1053 | * Alexstrasza gets this gem. |
| 1054 | -->'''Alexstrasza:''' Neltharion. ''Look'' at yourself - misshapen, twisted... wait, you're not Neltharion.\ |
| 1055 | '''D.Va the Destroyer:''' Like, follow, subscribe! |
| 1056 | * Ana has an interesting query for night elves: |
| 1057 | --> '''Ana:''' So, you are... [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld How old]]? Do you ever retire? |
| 1058 | --> '''Illidan:''' What do ''you'' think? |
| 1059 | * Maiev has a handful of interactions with Illidan. Most of them are serious, [[ShipTease but the last one...]] |
| 1060 | -->'''Illidan:''' Can you put aside your anger, warden?\ |
| 1061 | '''Maiev:''' I don't know, can you put on a shirt?! ... It's distracting. |
| 1062 | ** She also gets a fairly amusing one with Tychus. |
| 1063 | -->'''Maiev:''' Your armor is your prison? Is that what passes for justice among your people? Pathetic.\ |
| 1064 | '''Tychus:''' Yeah, I can't believe it either. |
| 1065 | |
| 1066 | * Alarak to Probius: |
| 1067 | -->'''Alarak:''' Oh! A probe, good, I'm in need of a servant. Follow! |
| 1068 | |
| 1069 | * Uther gives a scathing burn to Whitemane worthy of a GrumpyOldMan scolding his BrattyTeenageDaughter |
| 1070 | -->'''Whitemane:''' The Silver Hand failed paladin, join us! Take up the path of vengeance! |
| 1071 | -->'''Uther:''' Yes, we get it, you're ''edgy'', congratulations! Can we move this along?! |
| 1072 | ** Likewise, Johanna completely blows her off. |
| 1073 | -->'''Whitemane:''' My crusade is now your crusade.\ |
| 1074 | '''Johanna:''' Yeah, that's not how this works. |
| 1075 | ** And she gives one in return to Hogger. |
| 1076 | -->'''Hogger:''' You Whitemane? Hogger mane black! Hahaha, get it?\ |
| 1077 | '''Whitemane:''' [[LamePunReaction I do not answer to you.]] |
| 1078 | |
| 1079 | * Deckard Cain tries to insult Mephisto. [[InsultBackfire Tries.]] |
| 1080 | -->'''Deckard:''' Back to the Burning Hells with you!\ |
| 1081 | '''Mephisto:''' Then we are in agreement. |
| 1082 | |
| 1083 | * Alarak's contemptuous "response" to Yrel calling him out on his BloodKnight way of ruling his people is so hilariously dismissive. Note that protoss in general don't have mouths and communicate telepathically. |
| 1084 | -->'''Yrel:''' I don't know what your people see in you. Our leaders are both wise and compassionate.\ |
| 1085 | '''Alarak:''' Pfft! |
| 1086 | * Sylvanas also gets an amusingly blunt response to Yrel: |
| 1087 | -->'''Yrel:''' Are you willing to put aside your differences with the Alliance and stand alongside the Draenei?\ |
| 1088 | '''Sylvanas:''' ''(sighs)'' No! |
| 1089 | * Orphea might be a hero now, but that doesn't mean she's used to people being chipper about it. |
| 1090 | -->'''Orphea:''' You seem to really like helping people. [[ChronicHeroSyndrome A lot]].\ |
| 1091 | '''Li Li:''' Yup! |
| 1092 | * As fitting with someone using holy fire, Imperius delivers some burns: |
| 1093 | -->'''Azmodan:''' Hmm, tired of being on the losing side?\ |
| 1094 | '''Imperius:''' I'm not the one who was slain by a lowly nephalem, Azmodan.\ |
| 1095 | \ |
| 1096 | '''Imperius:''' Is that cacophony supposed to be music? How infantile.\ |
| 1097 | '''Lucio:''' Tha– That's just straight ignorant.\ |
| 1098 | \ |
| 1099 | '''Mal'Ganis:''' When drained of their light, the Naaru fall into darkness. Perhaps the same is true for you.\ |
| 1100 | '''Imperius:''' I am not convinced that you have the strength required to find out! |
| 1101 | ** Although Johanna can dish out as good as him, if not better: |
| 1102 | -->'''Imperius:''' Nephalem. Am I to believe that this "Nexus" considers you a "hero"?\ |
| 1103 | '''Johanna:''' Well, Imperius, ''you'''re here, so clearly they have no standards. |
| 1104 | ** And Auriel may have done the same by accident. |
| 1105 | -->'''Auriel:''' Do try to keep a level head, brother.\ |
| 1106 | '''Imperius:''' [[IResembleThatRemark I ALWAYS KEEP A LEVEL HEAD!]] |
| 1107 | ** And then, there's Chromie: |
| 1108 | -->'''Imperius:''' Those who meddle with fate find themselves succumbing to theirs.\ |
| 1109 | '''Chromie:''' Well, that's not nice.\ |
| 1110 | \ |
| 1111 | '''Chromie:''' Do we know each other? Oh, sorry. Oh! I always forget these things!\ |
| 1112 | '''Imperius:''' Be silent. Not all of us have the luxury of time. |
| 1113 | * Lucio fumbles a greeting with [[TheBlank Tyrael]]: |
| 1114 | --> '''Lucio:''' Hey, hey! Always good to see your face.\ |
| 1115 | '''Tyrael:''' ... My what?\ |
| 1116 | '''Mecha Tyrael:''' Error: Face.png not found. |
| 1117 | |
| 1118 | * As someone who has interacted with [[PlayerCharacters Adventurers]] for years, Anduin knows how to deal with mercenaries: |
| 1119 | -->'''Qhira:''' A king, uh? Finally someone who can afford my services.\ |
| 1120 | '''Anduin:''' An adventurer, is it? I know how to deal with your types, I must have some gold on me... would a blue quality item be enough? |
| 1121 | |
| 1122 | * Deathwing misconstrues a compliment: |
| 1123 | -->'''E.T.C.:''' Whoa, you're the most heavy metal thing I've ever seen!\ |
| 1124 | '''Deathwing:''' ...are you making a crack about my jaw? |
| 1125 | |
| 1126 | * Mei is naturally fascinated with heroes who can make ice with magic. Some are more on-board than others. |
| 1127 | -->'''Mei:''' That sword is such interesting technology! Mind if I take a look?\ |
| 1128 | '''Arthas:''' ''Silence.''\ |
| 1129 | \ |
| 1130 | '''Mei:''' The weather patterns here are fascinating. Can you call down a blizzard for me to study?\ |
| 1131 | '''Jaina:''' Now that's a good idea! |
| 1132 | |
| 1133 | * Hogger thinks [[SmallNameBigEgo a little highly]] of himself. |
| 1134 | -->'''Deathwing:''' Ready yourself. Doom has come to this paltry realm.\ |
| 1135 | '''Hogger:''' (excited laugh) Yesss, I have!\ |
| 1136 | \ |
| 1137 | '''Hogger:''' Little baby king boy... Hogger show you how real king act!\ |
| 1138 | '''Anduin:''' Diplomacy is never easy. Less so with you around. |
| 1139 | ** Also, props for making something clever out of a generic quote. |
| 1140 | -->'''Hogger:''' (slobbering noises)\ |
| 1141 | '''Thrall:''' The waiting ends shortly. I hope your tongue follows suit. |
| 1142 | |
| 1143 | * ''Everyone'' is TheComicallySerious towards [[TheUnintelligible Murky]]. Some can even [[IntelligibleUnintelligible understand what he's saying]] (in particular, the dragons from Warcraft naturally understand Nerglish, the Protoss heroes understand Murky via their natural telepathy, and the angels and demons from Diablo similarly understand through mind reading as well). |
| 1144 | -->'''Murky:''' *something in Nerglish*\ |
| 1145 | \ |
| 1146 | '''Abathur:''' Question unintelligible. Illogical sentence structure.\ |
| 1147 | '''Alarak:''' Ha! I believe I like you, fish creature! Come! We shall claim our vengeance together!\ |
| 1148 | '''Alexstrasza:''' No, I will not aid your quest for vengeance, young one. You must learn to forgive.\ |
| 1149 | '''Ana:''' A talking fish? Ha! And I thought Overwatch had its share of oddities!\ |
| 1150 | '''Anduin:''' Hearing that sound come from my ally is a surreal experience.\ |
| 1151 | '''Anub'arak:''' ...Come again?\ |
| 1152 | '''Artanis:''' Oh, really! I will not dignify that with a response!\ |
| 1153 | '''Arthas:''' Do NOT. Waste. My time.\ |
| 1154 | '''Crown Prince Arthas:''' Must you ALWAYS spit when you talk?\ |
| 1155 | '''Auriel:''' Seek justice, young one. Vengeance, if you must. But ''do not'' abandon hope.\ |
| 1156 | '''Azmodan:''' You sound like a [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Fallen One]].\ |
| 1157 | '''Azmodunk:''' Hmm. Alright. You talk a good game. But can you slam with the best?\ |
| 1158 | '''Blaze:''' So... fish is on the menu today?\ |
| 1159 | '''The Butcher:''' *Irritated growl*\ |
| 1160 | '''Cassia:''' Was that a question? Do not expect an answer, frog-creature.\ |
| 1161 | '''Chen:''' Ahhh, well, I, I, uh... I've got nothing.\ |
| 1162 | '''Cho:''' *Irritated* Arrrr, I have no time for this nonsense!/'''Gall:''' Oh, I do! Plenty!\ |
| 1163 | '''Chromie:''' Eh, I wouldn't worry your head about it. Most of them never learn to understand you, anyway.\ |
| 1164 | '''Deckard:''' I must write a book about you.\ |
| 1165 | '''Dehaka:''' Do not understand. [[HypocriticalHumor Learn to speak properly.]]\ |
| 1166 | '''Diablo:''' Ugh, what an evil thing to say!\ |
| 1167 | '''Prime Evil Diablo:''' Such anger! You could make for a powerful host!\ |
| 1168 | '''D.Va:''' Oh-em-gee, you'd make a great plushie!\ |
| 1169 | '''ETC:''' Is that hip hop?\ |
| 1170 | '''Falstad:''' Hah! And they say ''my'' accent's thick.\ |
| 1171 | '''Fenix:''' Who taught you that kind of language?!\ |
| 1172 | '''Garrosh:''' The Alliance is so weak, they can't even deal with you ''murlocs'' permanently!\ |
| 1173 | '''Gazlowe:''' *titter* Eh, no clue what that means. Thanks, though!\ |
| 1174 | '''Genji:''' ...I am never eating sushi again.\ |
| 1175 | '''Greymane:''' Ha. To think a creature like you could cause so much chaos...\ |
| 1176 | '''Gul'dan:''' There is much hatred in you... but you could be so much more. DRINK MURKY! EMBRACE YOUR DESTINY!\ |
| 1177 | '''Hanzo:''' A talking fish? Is this a joke!?\ |
| 1178 | '''Hogger:''' What worse than murloc sound? Murloc taste!\ |
| 1179 | '''Illidan:''' Oh, for the love of...\ |
| 1180 | '''Imperius:''' May those who have wronged you burn in the flames of your wrath!\ |
| 1181 | '''Jaina:''' *Giggles* Okay, that's... kinda cute.\ |
| 1182 | '''Dreadlord Jaina:''' Murlocs. Unwitting servants of the Old Gods.\ |
| 1183 | '''Johanna:''' Ah, words of wisdom as always, my articulate friend.\ |
| 1184 | '''Warsong Johanna:''' A murloc? I used to punch you into rivers! Ahahaha- uh... sorry.\ |
| 1185 | '''Junkrat:''' You what, mate?!\ |
| 1186 | '''Kael'thas:''' I feel I should be offended, but... I'm not certain why.\ |
| 1187 | '''Kel'Thuzad:''' Your curiosity will be the death of you, Murky. Over and over again.\ |
| 1188 | '''Kerrigan:''' I sense a lot of hatred in you for one so small.\ |
| 1189 | '''Queen of Ghosts Kerrigan:''' Aheh. You're alright, kid. Stick with me.\ |
| 1190 | '''Kharazim:''' You speak as a bubbling river. Huh. Delightful.\ |
| 1191 | '''Leoric:''' What?! You '''dare''' to mock a king?!\ |
| 1192 | '''Space Lord Leoric:''' If that is what you wish, I will not impede your wrath.\ |
| 1193 | '''Li Li:''' Aww, you're so cute.\ |
| 1194 | '''Li-Ming:''' Ugh, if you can't say anything intelligent, don't say anything at all.\ |
| 1195 | '''Baleog:''' Pfft. Tell me about it.\ |
| 1196 | '''Erik:''' How did a sea serpent end up here? And such a tiny one too!\ |
| 1197 | '''Olaf:''' Ho. Was that you or my stomach?\ |
| 1198 | '''Lt. Morales:''' Um... anyone fluent in mackerel? Salmon? ...Anyone?\ |
| 1199 | '''Lunara:''' Ah! Um... *[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Sheepish]]* I'm so out of practice... Mrglrgl?\ |
| 1200 | '''Maiev:''' WHERE IS MURKIDAN!?\ |
| 1201 | '''Malfurion:''' Mmph, should've brushed up on my Nerglish.\ |
| 1202 | '''Mal'Ganis:''' This is why all who join the Legion are required to learn Demonic.\ |
| 1203 | '''Malthael:''' You... understand my [[OmnicidalManiac great work]]?\ |
| 1204 | '''Medivh:''' Mmm. Yes. Right, right... I... have no idea what you just said.\ |
| 1205 | '''Mei:''' What a cute little amphibian! I bet it's nice and warm where you come from.\ |
| 1206 | '''Mephisto:''' Such hatred burns within your heart. An inferno... that would consume ALL OF HUMANITY!\ |
| 1207 | '''Muradin:''' Hurgggh, that sound still gives me the heebie-jeebies.\ |
| 1208 | '''Maraudin' Muradin:''' Somethin' tells me you're even WORSE than the Zerg!\ |
| 1209 | '''Nazeebo:''' [[FlatWhat What?!]]\ |
| 1210 | '''Nova:''' *sigh* I hate sushi...\ |
| 1211 | '''Orphea:''' Do I pretend to understand, or just ignore this?\ |
| 1212 | '''Probius:''' *Confused beeping*\ |
| 1213 | '''Qhira:''' You remind me of an ancient Iresian creature. Before they went extinct due to stupidity, that is.\ |

| 1215 | '''Raynor:''' I dunno if I need ya to speak slower or faster, cause I have NO IDEA what that means!\ |
| 1216 | '''Rehgar:''' *Lacking his usual bombast* Well, at least you've got a fighting spirit.\ |
| 1217 | '''Rexxar:''' Ahhh, this one has some fight in him! Interesting.\ |
| 1218 | '''Samuro:''' Hmm. Your words are muddled, but your desire for vengeance is clear!\ |
| 1219 | '''Monkey King Samuro:''' Hah! Unruly fish! I shall pound you flat for that!\ |
| 1220 | '''Sgt. Hammer:''' E-NUN-CI-ATE. Sounds like yer speakin' gibberish.\ |
| 1221 | '''Sonya:''' I'm not even going to pretend I understand that.\ |
| 1222 | '''Stitches:''' Stitches like funny friend!\ |
| 1223 | '''Stukov:''' I have better things to do than... socialize with dinner.\ |
| 1224 | '''Sylvanas:''' You cannot be serious.\ |
| 1225 | '''Tassadar:''' You must let go of your hatred, young one. Vengeance is not the way.\ |
| 1226 | '''Mecha Tassadar:''' Error. Translation... not found.\ |
| 1227 | '''Thrall:''' Hmm... I wonder what that means...\ |
| 1228 | '''Tracer:''' Winston's an odd one, but you're a whole 'nother level!\ |
| 1229 | '''Tychus:''' Uh, [[FlatWhat what?]]\ |
| 1230 | '''Infested Tychus:''' *Completely bewildered* Huh???\ |
| 1231 | '''Tyrael:''' Ha, ha! Eloquently put, my young friend!\ |
| 1232 | '''Mecha Tyrael:''' Translation in progress. Please stand by --- What? How DARE you?!\ |
| 1233 | '''Tyrande:''' *Completely serious* Steel yourself, young one.\ |
| 1234 | '''Uther:''' You want to run that past me again?\ |
| 1235 | '''Valeera:''' Oh, yuck! You didn't just... make ''inky'', did you?\ |
| 1236 | '''Valla:''' I'm sorry, is something stuck in your throat?\ |
| 1237 | '''Varian:''' Oh sure, that's cute now, but ''I know what happens when you grow up!''\ |
| 1238 | '''Whitemane:''' A tadpole? Have you been exposed to the plague? ANSWER ME!\ |
| 1239 | '''Xul:''' That sound is rather chilling...\ |
| 1240 | '''Yrel:''' I hate to think what would happen if the Legion ever corrupted your kind.\ |
| 1241 | '''Zagara:''' ''What'' did you just say to me?!\ |
| 1242 | '''Zarya:''' I do not know how to respond to that. No? Yes? Maybe?\ |
| 1243 | '''Zeratul:''' Do not let vengeance consume you, small one.\ |
| 1244 | '''Zul'jin:''' Wha' ju say to me? *Beat* BHAHAHA! Thas' what I thought.\ |
| 1245 | |
| 1246 | * Speaking of Murky, Li-Ming doesn't understand what he is. |
| 1247 | -->'''Li-Ming:''' What kind of monster are you? Do you have affixes? |
| 1248 | * Genji has this to say if he starts on the same team as Chen: |
| 1249 | -->'''Genji:''' [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda1 You... You're a panda. (to another hero) He's a panda.]] |
| 1250 | * During the Eternal Conflict event, players began to hear Deckard Cain's voice at the start of most games, announcing the presence of a Treasure Goblin. With the Kharazim patch and the quest to kill fifty Treasure Goblins included within it, Cain got more lines for successive Treasure Goblins in a single day. But so far the most entertaining has been this: |
| 1251 | -->'''Cain:''' [[CatchPhrase Stay a while and]] -- [[SubvertedCatchPhrase KILL THAT TREASURE GOBLIN]]! |
| 1252 | [[/folder]] |
| 1253 | |

| 1255 | * The Raven Lord, the default announcer in Cursed Hollow, is so gloriously [[LemonyNarrator dry and snarky]]. |
| 1256 | -->'''Raven Lord:''' ''[Death]'' [[SarcasmMode May I suggest... dodging?]]\ |
| 1257 | '''Raven Lord:''' ''[Tribute spawn]'' I grow tired of your petty squabbling. Gather tribute, and earn my favour.\ |
| 1258 | '''Raven Lord:''' ''[Enemy curse end]'' Enough! The curse is over. Perhaps now you realise its value, yes? |
| 1259 | * Occasionally when someone reconnects in the Garden of Terror stage, Lady Nightshade has this gem: |
| 1260 | -->'''Lady Nightshade:''' Welcome back, hero... Now, ''get back to work!'' |
| 1261 | * Sky Temple also has one that is made even more amazing [[DeadpanSnarker with its delivery]]. |
| 1262 | -->'''Ka:''' A pity... the hero came back... |
| 1263 | * [[GhostPirate Black]][[TheDrunkenSailor heart]] tries his hand at DrunkenSong -- and as you'd expect, it's predictably [[LargeHam hammy]]. |
| 1264 | -->'''Blackheart:''' [[Literature/TreasureIsland Ten heroes on a dead man's chest... Yo ho ho]], eheheh... Hey! '''[[SeriousBusiness Who stole me bottle?!]]''' |

| 1266 | -->'''Blackheart:''' You're dead, matie! Welcome to the crew!\ |
| 1267 | '''Blackheart:''' Could always use another soul in me crew! |
| 1268 | * Hearing the Raven Lord and Grave Keeper argue on the Towers of Doom map. Leading to this exchange: |
| 1269 | --> '''Raven Lord:''' Heroes, I have opened a tunnel near our core that leads to the battleground's center. Use it well. |
| 1270 | --> '''Grave Keeper:''' What?! I mean -- [[GladIThoughtOfIt I knew I could do that!]] I've opened my tunnel as well! |
| 1271 | * All (except [[TheUnintelligible Murky and The Butcher]]) of the custom announcers actually have special lines that play when you're [[DevelopersForesight playing as the character the announcer is based on]]. |

| 1305 | '''Sgt. Hammer:''' I know these tanks all look the same, but still... something mighty familiar 'bout that one.\ |
| 1306 | '''Sonya:''' It is rare I see another child of Bul-Kathos on my travels.\ |
| 1307 | '''Stitches:''' Stitches hear self in head. Confused!\ |
| 1308 | '''Tassadar:''' Is my hallucination active? That High Templar looks a lot like me.\ |
| 1309 | '''Tychus:''' Wait a second here. I gotta announce and fight, too? [[WhoWritesThisCrap Seems like a whole lotta BS to me.]]/Announce ''and'' fight, huh? [[SarcasmMode Sure, let me just do]] ''[[SarcasmMode all]]'' [[SarcasmMode the work.]]/Announcer and fighter? Heheh, you must just love hearin' me talk.\ |
| 1310 | '''Tyrael:''' Wait, am I the announcer as well? Curious./Of course I can be in two places at once! I am an angel after all.\ |
| 1311 | '''Mecha Tyrael:''' Deploying auxiliary Tyrael units on to the battlefield./Tyrael 02 is fully operational.\ |
| 1312 | '''Valla:''' A demon hunter? Strange, I feel like I know her./What demonic magic is at play? That demon hunter... is ME!?\ |
| 1313 | '''Whitemane:''' An inquisitor? Together we shall spread the crusade's ideals across this land!/Hail, sister! With you as my champion, we shall be UNSTOPPABLE!/*Gasp* Where did you get that chapeau? Well... it looks terrible on you.\ |
| 1314 | '''Yrel:''' Is that the me from the other timeline? ... Is there a me from the other timeline?/I am in two places at once? Not even the Prophet could've foreseen this!/There are two of me now. Ooh, the Nexus is truly a strange place!\ |
| 1315 | '''Zeratul:''' What is this illusion? How can I be in two places at once? |
| 1316 | * Murky and The Butcher are exactly as verbose [[TheUnintelligible as you would expect them to be]]. |
| 1317 | * Gazlowe is ''by far'' the funniest of the lot, with plenty of zingers flying all around. |
| 1318 | -->'''Gazlowe:''' ''[Gates open]'' Hurt them like they owe you money!\ |
| 1319 | '''Gazlowe:'''''[Takedown]'' Hey, don't forget to check their pockets. What?/Jeez. Don't pull any punches or anythin'./Aww, they're still squirmin'! Gross!\ |
| 1320 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''[Death]'' Ooh, yer dead... can I have yer stereo?/It's okay, just run back to yer corpse and-- oh! Oh my gosh, it's gone! Guess you'll hafta wait!/Hey, rememba when you died? Oh yeah, that just happened.\ |
| 1321 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''[Enemy fort destroyed]'' NICE EXPLOSION!!! I'd give it an 8./Oooh, that's a lotta property damage.\ |
| 1322 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''[Disconnect]'' Welp, one of these heroes is now a robot. So, y'know. Enjoy that./So uh, is it me or is that guy just sittin' there? Hey. Buddy. MOVE!\ |
| 1323 | '''Gazlowe:''' ''[Reconnect]'' Hey, look who's back! What, was it the router? [[SarcasmMode Yeah, yeah I bet]] [[RageQuit it was the router, right?]] |
| 1324 | * Brightwing gets some pretty funny ones too, mostly about her CuteAndPsycho AxCrazy tendencies. |
| 1325 | -->'''Brightwing:''' ''[Takedown]'' Oooh, that corpse make for good eat! / Chomp, chomp, chomp!\ |
| 1326 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Ally killing spree]'' Your ally has killed many people! That is good <3\ |
| 1327 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Killing spree]'' Yeaaaah, killing spree! >:)\ |
| 1328 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Death]'' You are dead now. Dead, dead, dead!\ |
| 1329 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Victory]'' Victory! Now we are friends forever <3 |
| 1330 | ** She also has some based on her speech patterns and general childishness. |
| 1331 | -->'''Brightwing:''' ''[Fort lost]'' Our fort is destroyed. [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment And dead]].\ |
| 1332 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Disconnect]'' That one is not moving. Maybe they have fallen asleep?\ |
| 1333 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Ally core under attack]'' Our core feels ouchy :<\ |
| 1334 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Death]'' You take nap? Brightwing take nap too! (adorable snoring) / Brightwing think you do good job!\ |
| 1335 | '''Brightwing:''' ''[Defeat]'' Well, we have lost. But we can still be friends! <3 |
| 1336 | * Most of Abathur's lines are [[BeigeProse standard fair for him]], although he has this one: |
| 1337 | -->'''Abathur:''' ''[Death]'' [[CaptainObvious Death inadvisable.]] |
| 1338 | ** It's also an absolute joy to hear him say "Hero of Storm" instead of "Hero of ''the'' Storm." |
| 1339 | * ETC has a few amazing ones as well. |
| 1340 | -->'''ETC:''' ''[Death]'' Whoa. You're dead, man.\ |
| 1341 | '''ETC:''' ''[Defeat]'' Well, I'll see ya on the tour bus. And bring your girlfriend.\ |
| 1342 | '''ETC:''' ''[Allied fort destroyed]'' Yeah! Oh... [[AssumedWin wait, that was ours]].\ |
| 1343 | '''ETC:''' ''[Disconnect]'' Uh oh, I think that guy just passed out. Does somebody wanna poke him? I ain't gonna do it. |
| 1344 | * Junkrat's boundless enthusiasm just bleeds into his announcer pack, and it's a delight. |
| 1345 | -->'''Junkrat:''' ''[Defeat]'' Well hey, at least we got to see something ''explode!''\ |
| 1346 | '''Junkrat:''' ''[Enemy keep destroyed]'' Look at all that smoke! *sobs* It's beautiful...\ |
| 1347 | '''Junkrat:''' ''[Allied keep destroyed]'' Just want you to know, that wasn't me. This time.\ |
| 1348 | '''Junkrat:''' ''[Allied fort destroyed]'' I really hope Roadhog wasn't stashing the loot in there. |
| 1349 | * The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCMhBH-Sg8o Alarak announcer]] is exactly the Highlord of [[DeadpanSnarker Snarkery]] fans were hoping for. |
| 1350 | -->'''Alarak:''' ''[Game start]'' Combat begins shortly. Your failure will likely follow.\ |
| 1351 | '''Alarak:''' ''[Takedown]'' Again. But slowly, and ''painfully.''\ |
| 1352 | '''Alarak:''' ''[Death]'' At least your failure was spectacular./The idea is to be ''better'' than your enemies, you know./Are you dead ''again''? Ohoho... tsk-tsk-tsk.[[note]]Doubly hilarious since he produces the sound in spite of Protoss not having tongues.[[/note]]\ |
| 1353 | '''Alarak:''' ''[Defeat]'' Is your blood boiling? Good./Ahh, what you're best at.\ |
| 1354 | '''Alarak:''' ''[Victory]'' Victory, more or less./I would not get used to that if I were you.\ |
| 1355 | '''Alarak:''' ''[New talent]'' Must I really remind you to ''choose a talent?''/Perhaps the ''correct'' talent this time?\ |
| 1356 | '''Alarak:''' ''[Ally core under attack]'' Protect the core! The concept is alarmingly simple!/Your core is under attack! ''Again!'' |
| 1357 | * Cloaken is basically a tutorial mode that explains game mechanics as well as give tips and tricks, and is just [[{{Keet}} beaming with energy]]. It's hard to get salty when he's your announcer of choice. |
| 1358 | ** He has this wonderful line: |
| 1359 | -->'''Cloaken:''' ''[Takedown]'' Ooooh... that guy didn't read the patch notes! |
| 1360 | ** Hell, the fact that a Kevin Johnson announcer ''[[AscendedMeme exists]]''. |
| 1361 | [[/folder]] |

| 1364 | * At the 2017 Western Clash. Trikslyr and Dreadnaught are commentating the third match between (then) world champions Fnatic and upstarts Team Expert. Expert's ADRD has chosen to play The Lost Vikings, an unusual pick, especially considering that Fnatic's [=scHwimpi=] is running Chromie, a hard counter to them. Both commentators are excited about this. |
| 1365 | -->'''Trik:''' ADRD will be planning to use ''Baelog'' here. It's kinda weird! A lot of people spec into ''Erik''. They use Erik as their playmaker. ADRD is like, "Nah: I like the guy that throws swords."\ |
| 1366 | '''Dread:''' I mean, I would too. It's pretty flashy, his push is pretty neat. But Erik, on certain maps, does have value here and there. And it does make sense you'd have to talent on him. He ''is'' the smallest, he needs a bit of help. Olaf only gets it in lategame, and it makes a lot of sense: he's the big tough guy.\ |
| 1367 | ({{beat}})\ |
| 1368 | '''Trik:''' He's got a belly button too. You know? We've all seen the belly button.\ |
| 1369 | '''Dread:''' (''incoherent laughter'')\ |
| 1370 | '''Trik:''' And we all know that's a positive! For Olaf... I didn't, I didn't know how to follow you up there.\ |
| 1371 | '''Dread:''' (''incoherent laughter'')\ |
| 1372 | '''Trik:''' All right! In the bottom-right, though, we have the four-man set-up here from Team Expert, which you will see from the Vikings. Dread! Are you okay?\ |
| 1373 | '''Dread:''' (''squeaky voice'') No!\ |
| 1374 | '''Trik:''' (''laughing'') Okay, good, I'm glad!... The four-man is going to be strong and enabled because of the Vikings. You already see Baelog in the middle, but Quackniix is gonna come in and threaten him.\ |
| 1375 | '''Dread:''' I'm sorry, it was just, the belly button got to me. |
| 1376 | * The entire ''WebAnimation/HeroStorm'' series is incredible. It's an animated, SuperDeformed, heavily stylized, and shockingly accurate portrayal of the game. It's by the same guy who made ''WebAnimation/StarCrafts'' and ''WebAnimation/WoWCraft'', for reference. |
| 1377 | * On Blaze's launch day, a streamer named Grubby figured out that you can draw ''a specific picture'' [[https://clips.twitch.tv/BadPoorLlamaPermaSmug using oil.]] |
| 1378 | -->'''Grubby:''' He did what on purpose? What do you mean? I was peeling for Morales *[[{{Corpsing}} cracks up]]* |
