While Icecrown is under development, who could fight the Lich King. Jaina and Tirion both seem capable while Thrall and Varian are capable warriors. However, Varian does seem like a weaker version of Arthas. Sylvanas failed to kill Arthas however. I say Jaina. --BobNamataki (talk) 12:32, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

I don't think I understand your poll question... who would fight him? They all would, everyone would. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 19:06, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Answer this, have you seen lord of the rings? BobNamataki (talk) 00:12, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I think the poll is about who will be there when the raid fights Arthas (like Akama and Maiev were for Illidan), not who would fight him if given the chance. Not sure what LotR has to do with this specifically.--SWM2448 00:15, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

If you have seen it, when Sauron was swiping away all the soldiers, that's what the Lich King would do. Master of crowd control. (If I may add, cool scene) BobNamataki (talk) 00:22, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I've seen the trilogy thanks, that doesn't mean your question makes any sense. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 08:18, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

lol touche Coobra, glad you said it :P  Max Krist (talk contribs) 11:40, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Jaina will join Alliance players, Sylvanas will join Horde players. Sebreth (talk) 09:44, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I had a point Coobra but I don't remember it. Anyway Sauron was also called Sauron the deciever. Sound familiar? BobNamataki (talk) 13:26, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

So more than one guy deceived. Is this really about Parallels between World of Warcraft and Lord of the Rings?--SWM2448 22:57, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

No it's not. But I still think it shouldn't be merged. BobNamataki (talk) 23:18, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

What shouldn't be merged? Of course WoW is alot like LotR, the vast majority of Warcraft from the very begining has been based off other fantasies, WoW has just managed to take elements from everything fantasy and combined it into a game which appeals to a very large audience.  Max Krist (talk contribs) 23:37, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

lol my bad, I just saw what you were refering too, although its a good idea for an article, it is rather brief and incomplete so it may be better to just leave those things in the pop culture references...  Max Krist (talk contribs) 23:40, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

The pop culture section is too large. There should be a fantasy section. BobNamataki (talk) 23:50, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

hmmm, could be a good idea, instead of coulping it with little references Blizz includes for fun, make it into a seperate page on things WoW takes inspiration from?  Max Krist (talk contribs) 23:53, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Thrall could never fight the Lich King. He was bested by Mannoroth even. BobNamataki (talk) 10:59, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
