What’s his? The flight? What makes it his?
That’s an interesting way to describe getting a lot of people killed.
Well, since I’m one of those people that thinks he’s a child, my response would be “My excuse for what? What did I do that I need an excuse for?”

Well,if you look at the situation as a family matter it makes sense. There is no family revelry more pronounced than a sibling one all wanting more attention than the other,blizzard did a good job of showing this growth to maturity.
My theory:
He’s the only one hearing ‘voices’, which I am assuming is the Old Gods influencing him. That may have a factor on his recent behavior.
That’s the only thing I got, because yeah he’s acting like a complete tool.

Wrathion has no birthright to deathwings legacy.
He merely killed his competition an if Sabellian had not the numbers an pledged himself to support alexstraza.
I would not put it pass him to try n have em assassinated.
we already know he did it too the other dragons…

It seems like people have already forgotten how Wrathion was acting in 10.0. During the egg transport quest, it appeared as if the black dragon eggs from Sabellian had been destroyed… Wrathion didn’t even care, didn’t worry about or show concern for the loss of the very limited eggs… He literally said “ooooh, I’m going to tell Mommy Alexestrasza on you!!!”.
He’s pretty much being portrayed as a child this entire xpac. (which, I guess tbf, he is one).

When he took off without even trying to listen to Sabellian’s plan I really wanted to shoot him down. But since Blizz has decided that Wrathion and Sabellian need to keep passively butting heads I just rolled with the story since it looks like Blizz has no plans for either one leading the flight.

He’s a literal child, both in human years, as well as among the dragons.
Him being too mature would be the bad writing.
Wrathion hasn’t changed at any point in his writing; he’s a child that thinks he’s a grand machiavellian schemer but consistently miss judges others, he has these grand plots to “do the awesome thing” but it’s always reliant on everyone else to do the heavy lifting and he’s never around when things go wrong.
This is who he is and who he has always been.

Wrathion expected to take the Aspect seat uncontested (Ebyssian clearly doesn’t want it) and then from out of nowhere Sabellion shows up with an equal, or arguably even more legitimate claim to it. For someone as arrogant as Wrathion anger is not a surprising reaction.
True, but not a great argument when trying to convince people to vote you Aspect.
i still think this is the height of wrathions story arc:

And honestly, are we really supposed to be surprised that someone named Wrathion is easily angered?
Your core mistake is thinking Wrathion was ever anything more than a manipulative little tart to begin with. He’s always been rash, immature, and full of himself. He literally manipulated the Horde vs Alliance conflict in MoP with the hopes of unifying the people by one faction being dismantled and thus subservient to the other so we would focus our now unified efforts against the Legion threat. Even up to his most recent stint in DF, he’s sneaky but somehow a braggart who instantly turns heel or seeks to undermine or discredit you if it suits him as well as turn on you if you don’t blindly support him.
Wrathion has always been a manipulator and I think Blizzard has done good to write him with that consistency. I see him as a WoW version of Loki. He absolutely is not cut out to be a leader of anything…including himself. The job rightfully should be going to Sab with a faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar distant 2nd place of Eby whose been nothing but a coward hiding away with moose cows and tripping out on weed acid or whatever.

Shallow writing. Its all that’s left these days.
Wrathion acts like a westerner teenager. He seems untouched by the realities of Azeroth . Maybe some kind mental disease will surface in his story.
I haven’t really been paying attention to his character, I have been a little bit but he kind of reminds me of Raj from TBBT.
Well, yeah, he’s still pretty young for a dragon. No matter how his human form may look to us - as in, an adult male - his dragon form is smaller than grown dragons.
I think his bratty moments fit well with him, personally. Plus, I always like a good snark. It fits with him being the black dragon prince and all.
Well, I mean, we know what his father did lol.
Here’s the thing, Wrathion learned how to fight on a team in BFA but he never learned how to follow someone else’s lead in a fight. He’s always cast himself as the star player and the one to deliver the coup de grace.
This time around he’s going to need to learn to play his part and stick to his role if Ebyssian, Sabellian, and Wrathion are going to overcome Fyrakk. Ebyssian will have to learn to hold his ground, Sabellian will have to learn to put his trust in others, and Wrathion will have to learn that he can’t always be the MVP.

He’s just being tsundre. Once Anduin proposes to him he’ll level out.
Ok, I’m gonna geek out a bit. They are setting it up for Ebyssian to become the Aspect. He is a uniter and emerging as leader (which I suspected from the getgo). Sabellian and Wrathion represent extremes with emotional tendencies that need to be heavily polished to function on Azeroth as Aspects. The story line supports this, and it’s more evident in 10.1.
