Origin

What's the origin of SMOrc?

SMOrc or the Space Marine Ork character is originally from the Warhammer 40k universe. They are known for their aggression, thus the meaning of the emote on Twitch.tv.

They are savage and crude yet the most successful species in the Warhammer franchise, because they are outnumbering every other species, however they are split in tiny empires and often fight each other.

They are a comic relief in the Warhammer 40k universe thanks to their appearances, humorous behaviour and language as well as the ramshackle technology with funny names, but it won’t stop them from being a threat to other species in the universe.

Twitch.tv got its own version of the emote as part of the original collection, however its original upload date is unkown.
