** Thrall is basically a more coherent [[WebAnimation/WowCraft Tobrac the Orc Warrior]] with black armor and hammer. ** Tychus is drawn very similarly to common Terran marines in Carbot's style, you really can't differentiate them if you take out his minigun. Raynor is similar, but has also been likened to "Derpfestor in a marine suit" due to his mannerisms.

* {{Expy}}: Artanis is pretty much drawn like [[WebAnimation/StarCrafts Angry Bob Zealot]] while Thrall is basically a more coherent [[WebAnimation/WowCraft Tobrac the Orc Warrior]] with black armor and hammer. Likewise, Tychus is drawn very similarly to common Terran marines in Carbot's style, you really can't differentiate them if you take out his minigun. Raynor has also been likened to "Derpfestor in a marine suit" due to his mannerisms.

Added DiffLines:

** Subverted as well in "Roundabout", which has Qhira snap her fingers to activate Blood Rage and causes Tracer, Alarak and Tychus to explode into [[{{Gorn}} giant puddles of blood]]. Hanzo, who she just saved, seemed to be understandably traumatized at that scene.


Added DiffLines:

* ConveyorBeltODoom: "Volley Ball Lightning" sees Arthas jimmy together one by rooting Tychus who is trying to escape him while standing on one, and holding up his sword.


Added DiffLines:

* LiteralMinded: The joke explaining Rexxar's Wildfire Bear talent in 'Kill Thuzad' - he literally douses Misha in gasoline and takes a lit match to her.


Added DiffLines:

** Qhira just spins around Alarak with a dopey smile on her face as everything Alarak, Tracer and Tychus try to hit her with does nothing at all.
** Deathwing is, of course, permanently Unstoppable and immune to crowd control in his episode. But despite how this renders him immune to any attempt from Qhira to chain onto him, [[GameplayAndStorySegregation Kel'Thuzad, Qhira and Maiev all chain onto him and fruitlessly hold onto their chains as Deathwing goes on his merry way]], [[RuleOfFunny because it's funny]].


Added DiffLines:

*** Illidan gets chased by HomingBoulders in 'The Chase', and at the end of 'Kill Thuzad'.

** In 'Kill Thuzad', the video ends with Kel'Thuzad casting Death and Decay on Illidan, who promptly flees the country on a plane to try and escape its homing. Illidan was put in the exact same situation by Kael'Thas's Pyroblast in 'The Chase'.

* HomingBoulders: "The Chase", [[TheChase much like the trope]], depicts Kael'thas' Pyroblast ultimate which does this. He casts it onto Illidan after a close fight with him, Illidan uses The Hunt on a distant minion and Hearthstones back to flee it, realizes it's still following him, goes to the airport to take a plane, the pursuing Pyroblast gets arrested as Illidan runs off his plane, the Pyroblast is released from prison (complete with a TimePassageBeard) and finds Illidan's house in the phonebook and then inevitably appears at his door step to explode.


Added DiffLines:

* SkewedPriorities: "Globel Threat" has Stitches be far too interested in acquiring regeneration globes, regardless of how much of the enemy team is around.

* TheDreadedPretendTeaParty: "Haters Gonna Hate" has Lili hosting a tea party as an attempt to capture a mercenary camp as Alarak ordered. The latter unwillingly joins in.
** Apparently, [[EvenEvilHasStandards Alarak]] seems to be annoyed on how the utensils on the table are improperly arranged.
** The epilogue has Lili hosting another one. [[RealMenWearPink Anub'arak]] seems to enjoy it.
