I am the last true Horde patriot the community has left. Without me Alliance bias would steamroll over this game and suck all the fun out of Horde players trying to enjoy it.
A patriot of a nation entirely unto yourself it seems.
Not much value in that frankly, no matter how loud and patriotic you are.

After doing some more research the only Loa we know the Revantusk revere is Akil’darah, the eagle Loa.
If you cared about the future of the Horde you woul help me to get the much needed changes I always post done. The Horde deserve better then powerless and underdeveloped peaceknicks.
As a weird tangent. Anyone weirded out that despite all the animals out there in wow there isn’t a Gryphon Loa? I get why there are no Hippogryph ones, as they are only local to Southern Kali, but the Forest Trolls have lived in Northern EK for a long time. Its weird that no Loa/WildGod over took on that shape.

So … a bunch of randomly powerful Despots who wouldn’t be caught dead working with one another; with very few actually even giving anti-Alliance lipservice? While the slaughter tons of their own people for personal power?
Akil’darah is bare bones enough you could make him a griffin one. Especially as there’s already a better known but unrelated eagle loa named Akil’zon.

LOL … of your list only 3 of them have ever expressed anti-Alliance rhetoric. That is Sylvanas, Wix, and Magatha. In every single one of those cases though, it was exclusively cheap lip service to justify the actions they took in service of their own personal ambitions. At the expense of their own people. The rest of your list has either been antagonistic to both the Horde and Alliance, or antagonistic to neither directly.

“Though Baine may have exiled me from Thunder Bluff, I am the leader that the tauren need. They sit idly by in their tents, waiting for the Alliance and the Legion to effortlessly roll over them. My people and I refuse to let that happen to us. We do what we must to survive.”
direct quote from Magatha back in Legion. I think it is fair to say that she really cares about the future of the Tauren.
And she’s responsible for more Tauren deaths in her own bid for power than even the Alliance is with her little stunt with Cairne and her rebellion. It has never been about the Alliance with her, its always been cheap and shallow lip service to justify her own ambitions. And factions of “her people” turned against the Horde and joined the Alliance during Cata, due to the fallout of their failed rebellion.

Magatha cares about the Tauren as much as Arthas cared about Lordaeron when he sacked his own kingdom and raised it’s citizens into undeath, that is to say, she doesn’t care as much as you think she does. If at all. She always been out for herself.
Magatha isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty. That is why she will always be more competent as leader then Baine who’s only concern is to send Anduin as many love letters as possible. If were talking about memes Magatha would be a Chad while Baine is the virgin.
Certainly not when she’s vying for personal power at the expense of her own people.
But here, lets try a different tactic. I know you don’t like Garrosh, or Baine, but Erevian … what is your opinion on Cairne? The patriarch of the Tauren of the Horde?

He was a cool fella. And unlike Baine he isn’t trying to get into Anduin’s pants all the time. That I can respect about him.

all her quotes are spot on. I wish she would lead the Tauren for good.
Then what is your opinion on the fact that had it not been for Magatha’s interference, it is very possible that Cairne could have defeated Garrosh in their Mak’gora and become Warchief? How exactly was she serving her people’s best interest by doing so?
A basic campfire is more useful than Baine is to the tauren.
At least a campfire can cook a meal for the tauren people.
Baine just is a spineless cuck.
Its a giant shame that he didnt die in shadowlands.

Power grabs are never without bloodshed. But if that was what it takes for the Tauren to turn into fearsome warriors again instead of being peaceknick native american caricatures then I would gladly walk that way to the end. Because such internal turmoil can be good for a faction if it makes the race as a whole stronger in the process.
Nice dodge. At this point, its like all your opinions. You are an “Alliance contrarian” Horde player. You don’t actually like the races or cultures of the Horde beyond their shallowest aesthetics, but you do see them as a vehicle to lash out against the Alliance you hate. Just go back and play SWtoR already if you want the School Yard Bully power fantasy man. It sure as hell beats you pretending you like anything about the Horde beyond physical appearances.

I like the races alot. I just hate their leadership. It is my honest opinion that they can do better then that. Beyond useless peace bickering with the Alliance.
