He lost the things that meant the most to him, but maintained his strength and determination all through.
Seriously, it must have sucked hardcore when he found out Taretha was murdered by her own father. =( To have to experience that, and still want to forge friendly relationships with the Alliance takes a lot of strength of will.
Wasn't her father; she was killed by Blackmoore.

I'm leaning toward tauren's side on this issue. Yeah, I'll agree that lately (for most of WotLK), Thrall hasn't really done anything
amazing
, but to say that he is a bland character and is not extraordinary is just plain naive and ignorant. I'm sorry, but anyone who has played through even half of WC3 and still thinks that Thrall is not great on many levels either has their hand in the sand somewhere or is just plain trolling.
I'm not saying he's the greatest Warcraft character ever, but he's FAR from being boring and ordinary. There's a reason that much of the focus of the Orcish campaign in WC3 was on him, and there's a reason that he lived while Grom met his demise. Thrall is the perfect foil to Grom and is the embodiment of what the (New) Horde is today.

Perhaps you meant head in the sand =P
But otherwise I agree with you. Even though I am fully Alliance, Thrall has always struck me as a character of depth, personality, strength and wisdom. Overall, an amazing character (But still falls short of Magni =P )

this^
the only thing I disagree'd with really was the whole Thrall is the best character attitude thing he's good just you can't say he's outright the best
Aye, there is no 'best' character, only fan favorites.

Ah, yes, I meant "head" :P
Anyway, on the subject of personal favorites, I'd have to say that Grom is mine, but seeing as how he's dead now...it's most definitely Cairne. I'm very disappointed that he doesn't have a larger role in WoW, all he does is sit around TB...

Actually I'm pretty sure Sylvanas would end up beating everyone in a "fan boy" poll. Thrall would be in 2nd with who knows in 3rd,4th,5th ect..
I just like Horde leaders more for their diversity,alliance has too many human looking races.
And I could say that all (well, except one) of the Horde races are brutal looking grunts.

I'd rather look at that than human-looking leaders. But like most everything else, it's all up to personal preference really, to each his own.
I don't think I could stand being a human. I agree that they look good in some armor sets, but they're just too ordinary for my tastes. You've all heard this before, I'm sure, but I'm already a human in real life, I don't want to be one in a game where I could be so many other things as well. If I were ever to roll Alliance, I'd have to be either a Dwarf or a Draenei. I really enjoy the concept and lore behind both races (*insert spacegoat lorelol comment here*) and find them both to be much more fascinating than the other Alliance races.

Fact: This thread was started up yesterday afternoon, asking if Thrall was getting an updated model.
Fact: This thread has hit 5 and a half pages of people arguing between which racial leaders are better.

draenie are human looking? and blood elves and the undead look pretty human. even orcs/trolls/goblins look arguably human with different skin colors and a more savage look than normal humans.
Yea but Draenei are not enough to make me want to play alliance,beside all I ever hear is alliance talking about how they hate their looks and lore.
I hope they at least give worgen "beat up" raggy looking human models.
That would actually be pretty cool.

Something akin to what happens if you become a sith in the KoToR games.

Transforming a lot alone would ravage a body.
Is that KOTOR 2? I never did play that one, just #1. Although ToR looks amazing!

sitting lazy in his chair with no weapons
Forgetting about Doomhammer, much? It's a very significant weapon, lore-wise. And besides, the chair is awesome.
But seriously, even if he doesn't get a model update, nobody is going to forget who Thrall is. Ever. Well, the people who play game just to play the game will forget, of course, but the
true Warcraft fans
won't.
