8.1: Jaina Sinks A Horde Fleet

And it’s our fault you picked the faction that gets down played constantly that loses cities.

God forbid the Horde has to lose something.

We lose cities and our heroes are mentally ill to allow your dudes to burn our cities.
But watch out. We have a speech prepared.

And we ain’t afraid to use it while waving our finger at you about your disappointing behavior when this expansion is over.

I see more NE fans and their disappointing behavior than Horde fans these days. Just look at your posts in the Nathanos vs Shando and Tyrande thread and how many people want them to re-write the scene.

HEY. I offered her head to you guys in my thread! I was told you didn’t want it!

If you paid attention you would know what my issue was with it consistency.

How to make the story more comprehensible meanwhile retaining everything Blizzard wanted to present.

I like I said in my first post, you chose the faction that always gets downplayed thus never lives up to its consistency and doesn’t get to use it’s powerful characters or weapons in any meaningful way.

consistency is something that affects both factions though.

Are you comparing Horde fans complaining about a Jaina cutscene which shows her doing something cool, one the Horde players don’t have to see in game I might add, to Night Elf fans complaining about everything that’s been happening to the race since War of Thorns?

Story implications aside, that cinematic seemed like it was a fan made machinima. Generic screams and battle cries, some stock animations and the walk away, it felt like this was thrown together in a day.

You mean, teleporting the city? I don’t consider that an unattended object, considering the mages doing the spell were standing in it at the time.

I guess but teleporting a handful of bombs is slightly less impressive than a full dang city with all its books and small objects etc

It’s certainly bigger. But the bombs might just be a whole new mage power (or at least, a whole new use of a spell) that I don’t remember ever seeing before, and that’s pretty big too.

Sure. Is this Jaina individually ending the entire fleet on her own through some impressive display of Magery where she spears the ships with giant beams of arcane and everybody on board is turned to dust? No. She teleported some stuff. But looking above you’ll see some Horde posters pretending this is some amazing super duper feat of awesome that even regular arch mages cannot even come close the fathoming and thus it disproves horde bias by the devs.

She teleported some bombs to like 3 already busted up ships, wasn’t even anything impressive at all, it also impacts nothing. They needed those kind of homing beacon arrows just so she could teleport the bombs to those ships.

It all makes sense now…

The writers for Alliance are so used to bland writing they are numb to the joy of outside thinking, where Horde writers are happy and jumpy but hop ship to the next shiny story element on a whim.

…Alliance and Horde confirmed for Cats and Dogs, respectively.

Uh. . . three ducks IS a flock. The plural aggregate for groups of animals doesn’t require for there to be more than you can count on one or both hands, with or without your shoes pulled off. Two ducks might be stretching it but a flock (or gaggle, pride, murder, etc) is just “a group” feeding, resting, or traveling together.

Also, doesn’t one of the Alliance characters use the word fleet to describe the attacking force?

Hey, does this mean we’re all going to suddenly see the amazing tactical potential of portals and teleportation? Will vats of blight suddenly be dropped out of nowhere onto Stormwind? Will 7th Legion do an instant decapitation strike on Sylvanas inside Orgrimmar?

Or do we file this under “Vindicaar” as a thing with obvious plot-altering potential that will never be mentioned again?
