User blog comment:Monkey Doctor 33/Clash of the Orc Warlords! Grimgor Ironhide vs Grommash Hellscream/@comment-17814994-20181207154413

Elgb's "LEEEEEEROY JEEEEEEENKINSSSSSS!!!!" EDGES!!!

Main: Tough one to decide to. The Foe Killer has the edge in attack speed, and speed in general since it can be swung as fast as a dagger, but the Gorehowl can swing and hit harder since it killed a being capable of surviving a direct hit from a catapult. Difficult to say, even if Hellscream is pretty fast with the Gorehowl himself, the Foe Killer is magically enchanted to be fast, which means that Ironjide doesn't need to exper tmuch effort as Hellscream does if he needs to quickly swing that thing. Overall, power is moot since both warriros would still die if they get hits from their respective weapon. But in the first initial draw, I'm pretty sure Ironhide would be able to draw blood first than Hellscream,and block incoming counterattacks faster too. EDGE: Grimgor

Other Weapons: This is an interesting comparison here between armor and mount. The worg offers a set of weapons that Hellscream can use but Blood Armor Ironhide use is tough in itself. Will the Worg's claws and teeth penetrate the Blood Armor? I doubt since that thing can take on bullets, dragon fire and even other mystical bullshit. But then there's the speed advantage that the Worg has. When Hellscream uses that Worg, this practically ends up being a classic case of cavalry vs infantry. And as seen in our own history, cavalrymen can move faster and hit harder with more momentum than your average foot soldier. And I don't see Hellscream not having these kinds of advantages either. EDGE: Hellscream

X-Factors: Hard to decide. Both are pretty even when it comes to experience here since the two have equally conducted pitch battles, rebellions and raids. Grimgor Ironhide seems to be the stronger and more durable orc here, capable of taking on punsihment from larger and more imposing orcs and dragons. While Hellscream takes the edge himself when it comes to speed, able to cut down multiple enemies without a sweat, as well as intellect since the dude is samrt enough to use hit and run tactics. In the end it all boils down to feats for me. Grimgor fought Rat Orcs and other HUUUUGE Orcs, as well as a dragon, but Hellscream fought against the ubertough Mannoroth and the demigod Cenarius. So easy edge for Hellscream. EDGE: Hellscream

Deadliest Warrior?

I'm giving it to Grommash Hellscream in one tough earned battle. It won't be easy since Ironhide has the better and faster axe as well as the physicality advantage, and I can see the latter surviving some of Grommash's inital attacks. But in the end Ironhide's ferocity in combat boils down to that... ferocity. He uses too much damn brute force, acting more like a brawler than a seasoned war combatant. Grimgor relies too much of hi ability to barrel down everything in his path and rip apart his target when he gets near. Its a simple tactic but a pretty dumb one that can be exploited upon by a more careful opponent.

Hellscream's worg and speed compliments well with his hit and run tactics and other tricks. His experience in conducting better calculated raids meant that he'll easily dodge and keep himself a dsitance from Ironhide's attacks. All he needs to do here is to use his superior speed and Ironhide's lack of cunning to pepper and whittle away at the poor orce, until his durability is at its limit, and Hellscream can finish him off with a swift strike from his Gorehowl.
