Can we get some inspiring, maybe even HEROIC leaders again?

I love you, even though your an evil elf.

Callistus is a Dalaran Elf. He’ll be character transferred as soon as Quel’dorei are playable.

Working on a Blood Mage though.

Here’s the thing:

"heroic leaders’ are far and few. Generally they are awesome but if we had them all the time it would just…dull. The alliance are the “peacekeepers”, the good side. The force. The horde are the “troublemakers” of Azeroth. They start pointless wars for conquest like the sith. They get pushed back and then they try again a few years later. We had Varian but it was because of his past that allowed him to be so, you can’t just build another character like that. Valen’s past was clearly seen and he is the way he is because of his failures on Argus. Anduin is a peacemaker and puts resolutions above war.

Tyrande and Malfurion are too OP, they have “Superman crisis” where they need to be nerfed in order to NOT 1 shot everything and bring things to a sudden ending.

We have Jaina, she led the assault on Zuldazar and destroyed the fleet with bravery and 0 hesitation. She showed her actions as what Varian would have done.

There’s Jaina, people just don’t like her because she says mean things about the Horde.

And before that they didn’t like her because she said nice things about the Horde.

She can’t really win.

I would have to agree Jaina is prob the closest to that now. I guess maybe it was the look at her softer side in the expansion that changed how I see her. I really liked her story (and consider it onw of the best parts of BFA) but it takes away from her being a hero for me. Kinda like Saurfang (who story I also love in BFA)

She really did save the day.
