Rimane iconica la sua performance al Blizzcon 2013 tratta dall’episodio “Make Love, Not Warcraft” della stagione 10 di South Park:
Tantissimi i messaggi in sua memoria dalla comunità cosplay e di WOW.
Jarod Nandin was interview by @lizohanesian for the LA Weekly back in 2014 where he talks about his cosplay
“I thought if I took that character and made him human, meaning if I portrayed him, it would just be hilarious…” https://t.co/tuzhYFhjPM

The Blizzcon Cosplay community lost a friend to Covid today. Jarod Nandin was best known for his cosplay of The Warcraft South Park Guy but he was also an advocate for cosplay positivity and encouraged people to cosplay whatever they want. He will be missed. pic.twitter.com/kDxcL8darY
