I'd love some feedback if so, because rendering 30 hours of clips into one video for fun doesn't seem to appeal to anyone that watches world of warcraft videos. super serious community is super serious.

The music isn't the worst, but the video quality is very poor and the clips are nothing special. It's all either 1v1 or you ganging up on players, or ganking players not interested in fighting back. There's little in the way from what I can see that made players like Vurtne so well known and popular - ridiculous odds, humour, and truly impressive play.

Okay, I'm bored so why not..

Overused music, not complaining about music taste per say, but the fact that all of these songs have been used in 6000 pvp movies before yours.

Skill wise wasn't very entertaining. Lots of misstakes and bad opponents, doing a r1 frostbolt and CoC into a warrior with freedom up? You need to use scorch way more. Conserve mana better, spamming coc is very mana heavy, use managems.

Some stuff was good, but it was way too long, 36 minutes? Closed it after 15 mins. Would much rather watch a <10 minute video with quality material. Also too much 2v1 in your favour.

And oh, nobody wants to see a zoom of your chat typing "ROFL" 15 times like you're 12 years old.

But yeah, maybe some harsh criticism but it wasn't all bad. Some scenes were good, editing was good in some places but with practice it'll get better.

Thoughts from the first 5 minues

Looks really blurry even on 720.
Did you ever stop listening to this music since the early 2000s?
Did you slow down the video to show a Cold Snap CoC or did I miss something?
The savage coast fight and 3v2 was pretty OK.

i don't think i'll be able to list everything as i don't have much time, here are some

-what are you doing
its a safe bet that someone would dislike because they thought you made the video with the intention to show off skill, until you made that post people could only guess. this is why you might find a lot of videos with something along the lines of "this isn't mean't to be a skill video its just something i did for fun" at the start or something

-some players aren't interested in pvp
the people who aren't interested in pvp are only here because to them its the best of 3 choices:

1. join a pvp server and put up with the pvp because there aren't any relevant pve vanilla servers
2. quit the game all together
3. join an empty, poorly scripted pve server

which isn't something i think is right, but its a reason why someone might dislike. back when vanilla was retail this wouldn't be an excuse because ofcourse you had the option of choosing between pvp and pve servers. what you'd need to do to stay clear of this problem is start footage off with the people you are fighting making the first move, its only fair that way.
