As an ordinary Orc chieftain, Kasrakel had the courage to face Yrel head-on. That was commendable, but it could also be called overestimating himself.
At Yrel's current level, whether in spellcasting or close combat, she could stand against the strongest Orcs, such as Gul'dan and Blackhand. A little-known figure like Kasrakel was nothing more than a sacrifice.
