What Alliance race leaders are working for the Primalists?
I think Smallz meant there are primalist leaders who are Alliance races. Not that racial leaders of Alliance races defected to Team Amazon Primalist.

Yeah I’m pretty sure the main leader of the Primalists attacking the centaur zone is a night elf.
But like that’s basically just having a night elf in the Twilight’s Hammer or Cult of the Damned. It’s not really the same thing as an Alliance member being an antagonist toward the Horde, not all members of every race are part of the Alliance or Horde.

Apparently some survivors of Teldrassil who think the problem with the world are the Dragons who serve the Order cosmic force. I don’t think its previously named character though like the old fruit vendor is our new nemesis.

That’s the opposite of what I want. There’s nothing to feel good about fighting an antagonist whose motivation is “you genocided my people and I want vengeance”. That’s the exact reason why I think the alliance is no good as opponents for me as a horde player.

Obviously what happened to teldrassil was a step above most things both factions have done previously, but there are plenty of reasons that the average Horde member/soldier would want to fight and hurt the Alliance. Everything is often overshadowed by Teldrassil but there are many other things that have happened over the years.
Cycle of hatred and all that.

Well thats not what those NE are doing though.
They are targetting the Dragons and the Titans because they think the world is broken due to whatever trajedy they lived through.
So they are a threat and we have to take them down. Yeah for me it feels like trying to put down a rabid dog. You are doing it out of pity rather than hate.
Really? I was told the main NE had a line about it. And they had the Teldrassil scar cosmetic option on and everything, too. I guess I’ll see when the expansion launches.
No she does have the scar and is a WOT survivor but she isn’t going after the Horde… she is going straight for the Dragons.
Don’t ask me how she made the equation where Dragons are at fault for Teldrassil… maybe she inhaled too much smoke.
But she isn’t being mean to the horde is my point, she is being mean to the dragons.

It’s going to be weird for people taking their Dracthyr through when those crazy NE primalists start ranting about teldrassil and the dragons and everyone’s like Does….does anyone wanna tell them we been slumbering for the last 20k+ yrs?
The dragons did bless Teldrassil, maybe perhaps she blames them for doing that since it probably encouraged a lot of Night Elves to live there.
I would see it be a situation where she blames the Dragons for what happened by not interfering. Teldrassil was a world tree that did get the blessings from Alexstrasza and Ysera eventually. So why didn’t they come and help protect it? Well because it was the ‘age of mortals’ following Deathwings defeat. So the Dragons took a backseat to getting involved in mortal affairs unless it affected them personally.
That is something that does happen though. You do not have the power to go after the people who actually did it so you look for a scapegoat to funnel your anger and rage at. Usually someone who did ‘nothing’ to prevent the tragedy from happening. Even though they could’ve prevented or lessened it.

I would hope that this night elf understands Ysera had a very good reason not to help out in BfA. Probably the best reason.
Ysera’s death might also be a factor as to why they didn’t get involved this time. The last time a Dragon got involved with a world tree they got corrupted and died. It is a selfish reason but then again, self preservation is a powerful thing.
Its definitely a reach.
Blizzard made Sylvanas burn down Teldrassil and had every single Horde leader follow her for the entire war until she betrayed them.
Ever since then they have been flailing at blaming anyone but the Horde and as for Sylvanas make up every excuse possible to make her a victim instead of villain. Oh they definitely have her say “I am unforgivable” but then we spend 50 hours going over why she isn’t right in the head, she was manipulated, this was all a plan and etc and etc.
If they wanted to do this right then either the Horde should have won and assimilated the Alliance in… whatever way the Horde assimilates. Or the Alliance won and the Horde got assimilated. The leaders of the defeated faction die, executed or made to abdicate and we start fresh.
But Blizzard didn’t want to do that so now we have a Night Elf who is on an epic journey to kill the dragons because Sylvanas had intercontinental catapults.

I don’t find that very convincing but lets see how they frame it. I am almost certain they are showing this as a contrast where this lady chose the wrong path “vengeance” and tyrande chose… or forced to choose “renewal” and the finale of this NE primalist Arc is the seed doing something in dragonflight.
If Malfurion has to die to pay the Danuser tax then so be it.
Maybe the only solution to the yearly Horde Night Elf culling is to move away and live on a magic island and just let the Horde have Kalimdor.

As I see it, we’re now expected to think of the burning of Teldrassil as an unavoidable natural event caused by God.
I know, it’s strange but hear me out!!
So, it’s not the fault of the Horde as a whole, because the false premise the Horde was sold on was capturing the city. So it had to be the leadership’s fault.
But it cannot be their fault because Saurfang felt kinda bad and gave up, and Baine sighed sadly a lot. So it had to be Sylvanas’s fault!!
But it’s not Sylvanas’s fault. She was only half a person because Zozo kept her secret other half locked in a pocket. He manipulated this half-vanas, so really it’s his fault!! Right?
Well, everything was designed by the First Ones. All of it follows their plan, even Zovaal. He rebelled because he saw that and wanted to protect the stuff from the other seventh stuff, which the Firsties just kinda made and let happen on something.
So it has to be their fault now, right? Or like, something.
Blizzard has tried to muddle this whole chain of events to ultimately make it nobody’s fault, but it just feels like it’s everyone’s fault.

It would be cool if the new night elf shamans work together to separate Northern Kalimdor into a new continent that just floats away towards the Dragon isles.
Granted we lose Feralas, but oh well.
Think Kyoshi island.
If a piece of Azshara just crashes into the ocean and rips apart that absurd terraformed symbol of Horde pride along with Gallywix’s palace, even better.

That’s probably correct, it’s like everybody stumbled into each other the thanksgiving turkey is accidentally thrown through a window unto a moving garbage truck, so now we all have to go to Taco Bell.
They are for sure trying to do that and even if we accept it wasn’t really Sylvanas’ fault it is ultimately the fault of all the Horde leaders. Like they have no actual excuses for their behavior or silence during the many warcampaign quests. Not even a humorous “Are we the baddies” meme.
This should have been the 4th War.
Alliance: “Give us Sylvanas”
Horde: “Understandable. Here you go.”
