High Overlord Saurfang.

This article contains "true" facts about High Overlord Varok Saurfang. They started at an unknown point in time, possibly after the Mind Controlled [Execute] bug. This only increased after he revealed his greatness leading the Might of Kalimdor in the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj event, and expanded via the infamous Barrens chat. The trend is similar to the real-world Chuck Norris facts.

Facts must be Warcraft-related, must not be repeated from facts already in the list, and must use good, concise, English grammar. Incoherent, unfunny, or facts which are similar to another will be edited out. Facts must also be "appropriate" (see talk page).

Saurfang's Monk alt doesn't deal reduced damage for every copy he creates of himself with Storm, Earth and Fire; instead, each copy doubles his damage.

He already cleaved him 10 googolplex times before but it's no fun without an audience.

Music/Poetry about Saurfang

A light from above, with angels who sang,

Down from the heavens, descended Saurfang,

Who delivered a strike, from which his enemies eyes teared,

Into the crotch, of Muradin Bronzebeard.

Who fell onto the ground, his face red and blotched,

While Varian Wrynn turned back to Lo'Gosh.

But Saurfang saw through his clever disguise,

and crushed Varian's head in between his thighs.

Then Grommash Hellscream and Garrosh Hellscream

and Turalyon with his face full of whipped cream

and all of the glowing naaru and the Drakkari

and King Mrgl-Mrgl and a dwarf named Yarley.

And Illidan and Sylvanas, Malfurion and Lady Vashj,

Eitrigg, Algalon and the Mighty Morphing Midget Gnomes.

Tirion Fordring and Darion Mograine, Brann, Arthas,

Mai'Kyl and Deathwing's chin.

They all came out of nowhere lightning fast,

but Saurfang cleaved them with his badass axe.

It was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw,

with Nozdormu staring in total awe.

The battle raged on for a century,

Many lesser claimed, but eventually,

The champion stood, the rest saw the better.

Saurfang lol'd wielding his blood stained beheader.

It has become rumored that Deathwing has the highest health ever before seen. This is proven to be false by Saurfang, as no number larger than infinity has been seen.
