Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
Who do you think the next Lich King will be? It is a certainty that we will kill Arthas and that there will have to be a replacement for him to keep the remaining Scourge from overrunning the World. This replacement will have to be someone incorruptible so they do not become as evil as Arthas and in my eyes and the eyes of many, this person is Bolvar. He has been resisting the efforts of Arthas to turn him evil and has shown himself to be a prime candidate to make the "noble sacrifice", as Uther calls it in his conversation with Jaina in the Halls of Reflection. Since he is already dead but still incorruptible, Bolvar seems like the obvious choice.

Re: Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
He's probably my favourite lore character, and his entire storyline is one of the major things that drew me into the Warcraft universe. I just find his history so compelling, tragic, and epic. Though I knew it would eventually come to this, I just can't bear the thought of killing him once and for all...gah.
If my wishful thinking were in charge of things, I would have loved to see something happen where his last bit of humanity takes over once again. He'd still be the Lich King, but he could now control the Scourge and make them join forces with the Horde and the Alliance to battle the Burning Legion. :3
Heh, yeah...not going to happen, I know. Still...would be kind of cool.

...And I have a feeling Tirion is going to show up during the Arthas fight and kick the bucket.

Re: Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
Then again, I can also see it killing him slowly.
Either way, I think Tirion's major involvement--and story--is going to end at Icecrown in one way or another. He's been vital to this particular expansion, but somehow I can't imagine him still being one of the major figures when Deathwing sends Azeroth all crazy.

I'm leaning towards Bolvar on this one, Tirion is a worthy for title of the Lich King, I just like him so I don't want him to go.
Tirion could be it because he well, something tells me he could do some craazy motion grab for the frostmourne.
Bolvar makes me think that in the fight he would by a mysterious way save the Raid party and grabs the Frostmourne, seeing as he is being tortured so he has a way of appearing. (wait a minute they could both do this anyway)
Maybe it could be Kael'thas, I mean he has these set backs alot, wouldn't be a wonder!
No wait no, the Blood Elfs hate the Scourge...well would have been funny.

One problem with this. Frostmourne is most likely going to be destroyed.Sonata wrote:This would be scary.....Ryno wrote:I think Hogger is going to be the next Lich King.

Re: Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
If it's true that there must always be a Lich King to control the Scourge, then the fused spirit of Ner'zhul and Arthas may, while imprisoned, retain that control. The Scourge had not yet destroyed Azeroth before Arthas freed Ner'zhul, so I somewhat doubt the claim that it is the last vestiges of humanity from Arthas that keep the Scourge in check, rather I think that is just an optimistic "Arthas is still, in some way, noble" sentiment on Tirion's part.
So, personally, I don't think there will be a sacrificial lamb so to speak to become the next Lich King, but that history will repeat itself at some point in the future where the frozen spirit of the Lich King lures another to it's will.

Re: Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
I had'nt even considered this. It makes sense, in a way. I really doubt Thrall wants Garrosh to lead the Horde, it's even been said that he will kick all non-Orcs and non-Tauren out of Orgrimmar. THis would break up the Horde, leaving the Alliance with an easy victory. I mean, I would'nt like it if I was kicked out from my hometown just so the "stronger" Orcs can live there. And I very much doubt I'd risk my life fighting in wars to save the person whi kicked me out. So yeah, I doubt very much that this will improve Troll, Elf and Goblin relations with the rest of the Horde.Vespias wrote:Thinking that Thrall will be the next Litch...
It would leave some problems on the Alliance side tough, since Blizz can't split the encounter, with one way for the events to transpire for the Horde, and another for the Alliance.

Re: Patch delayed --- Next Lich King
I'm sticking with Bolvar, with a little Mograine and Tirion on the side. Hey what if Saurfang would become the Lich King? If you twist it makes sense, the Lich King took something from him...but I think he isn't that big of a fool to do it.
Oh and Kael'thas, I swear he will become the Lich King by a loop hole in the story!
Am I the only one who finds it odd that all of the candidates are humans?
