For general information on ogres, see Ogre.

Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
The Boulderfist clan is a clan of ogres that live throughout the Arathi Highlands in Azeroth and Nagrand in Outland (hinting that it may have parted when the Dark Portal closed at the end of the Second War).
Their main bases on Azeroth include Boulder'gor and Boulderfist Hall; they also control a significant portion of present-day Stromgarde.
On Outland, a large contingent of Boulderfist ogres roam throughout Nagrand (clefts of Halaa, Burning Blade Ruins, and the hills northwest of Kil'sorrow Fortress) and parts of Terokkar Forest (Bleeding Hollow Ruins). Their leader is a half-orc half-draenei named Lantresor of the Blade.

  • Boulderfist Ogre has become a popular subject of Hearthstone community memes (particularly on the /r/hearthstonecirclejerk subreddit), many of which involve intentionally misspelling the card's name as "Bolderfist Oger" or describing it as having "Good stats for the cost" in reference to its flavor text.
  • During the reveal season of Fractured in Alterac Valley, content creator MarkMcKz had previous game director Ben Brode in his video to talk about Boulderfist Ogre.[2]
  • Boulderfist Ogre was a part of Patch 22.6.1.1.1.1, an April Fools 2022 prank, with the announced name change to  Flamewreathed Faceless and new text "Ogerload: (2)", which is a reference to the subreddit and the 4 mana 7/7 meme.
  •  Zephrys the Great Diamond version shows Boulderfist Ogre in his animation.
  • One of Excavate's treasures is  Ogrefist Boulder, a tribute to the popularity of this minion.
  • In December 2023, a poll was held on Hearthstone community Discord channel to choose who should enter the 2024 Core Set between  Chillwind Yeti,  Worgen Greaser, Boulderfist Ogre and  Ultrasaur. Boulderfist Ogre won with over 50% of the votes.[3]
