Even though E.T.C is basically a Tauren, it feels like we still don’t have a real Tauren in Hots. So who better than Cairne Bloodhoof himself to represent the proud people of Mulgore. This is the guy who challenged Garrosh Hellscream to Mak’gora(a duel to the death) for his dishonorable actions as Warchief of the horde. A fight he would likely have won if it was not for Garrosh’ weapon being poisoned by Magatha Grimtotem.
Any hero strong enough to smack someone like Garrosh around deserves a place in the Nexus.

Heroic ability 1: Shockwave – Cast a wave of force in a straight line forward, slowing everyone hit by 90% for 3 seconds and deal heavy damage.
Heroic ability 2: Mak’gora – Cairne challenges all nearby enemy heroes to a duel of honor, forcing them to attack him for 2 seconds. During Mak’gora, Cairne gains 50% resistance to all damage. This ability is on a very long cooldown.
