 * I shall review this nomination.


 * QPQ done. As for the hook, being the best of its kind in history seems interesting enough to me but here is some more alternatives:
 * ALT2: ...that many critics praised Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne for successfully deviating from the "build base, recruit units, kill enemy" formula often common in real-time strategy games?
 * ALT3: ...that Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne successfully avoided using the common "build base, recruit units, kill enemy" formula in many missions?
 * ALT4: ...that Blizzard's real-time strategy add-on Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne featured a campaign reminiscent of the company's Diablo series?
 * ALT5: ...that Blizzard's real-time strategy add-on Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne sold more than one million copies within the first two months of its release? (released July 1, surpassing mark on August 15 )
 * ALT6: ...that Warcraft III: The Frozen Thrones main campaign does not feature the Orc faction because Blizzard was unable to find a plausible story-based reason for them to appear?

 * Actually, you're right. On reflection, the original hook is good. Now the QPQ is done, I'm happy to pass this. Symbol confirmed.svg Soaper1234 - talk  21:39, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
