** It's even better because [[spoiler: Gul'dan has to cheat and use his magic to win]]. It's partly because [[spoiler: Medivh is opening the portal]] and he needs to hurry, but the fact that Durotan was that tough really earns him points.

** Durotan's reaction impressive as well. He may have called the duel expecting a fight with a [[spoielr: shriveled old husk]], but he doesn't even blink when a hulking, unholy beast charges at him instead, and strides into the ring with all the nonchalance of a herdsman wrangling a cow.

* The final duel is anti-climatic, but absurdly awesome in it's own way. Lothar wakes up after being knocked unconscious to find himself in a ring, facing a heavily mutated Blackhand. He's totally unarmored and not even wearing shoes, he's already took an incredible beating, and he's half the size of his opponent. [[spoiler:The battle lasts about ten seconds, and involves just two moves on Lothar's part.]] The entire horde goes totally silent at said result, all staring at Lothar with near religious awe. Despite Gul'Dan's screamed orders to kill him, they let Lothar pass through their ranks unharmed and even prepare his mount and the body of his king, while giving him orcish salutes.
