[Spoilers Inside] High Lord of the Ebon Blade is Alliance

Meh. They can just do a schism like the Silver Hand and the Ebon Blade bois can come into the Forsaken.

Just tell them to bring that Lich along. And if they have a Crypt Lord that’d be dandy as well. With Slyvanas and Varimathras gone they’re officially out of WC3 hero units. A Boney McFloat and Beetle Borg will make up for it nicely.

Well, since Bolvar is Alliance…can the Horde get Kael’thas back? Or maybe Kel’thuzad? I mean, it’s only fair at this point.

Horde might be keeping Sylvanas for all we know. Maybe it’s like an Uther situation. Part of her soul was taken by Frostmourn, and another part went to the Shadowlands. So we have a Good Sylvanas vs Bad Sylvanas situation.

Or maybe she just replaces the Jailer, and now a Horde character is Death God.

Ah. So he’s not loyal to the Alliance, just their Emperor. Glad we cleared that up.

Honestly I don’t care. I don’t care about Bolvar. The most interesting thing about him got snapped in half by Windy. Y’all can have the burnt 7/11 hotdog man and, whatever it is he brings to the table now.

The Light and the Alliance are really the only viable options there, because those are the only things he was actually sworn to service too.

Also, act in service of spiting Arthas? Wtf, that’s not a thing.

I know I suggested a similar idea about two Sylvanases before, but eesh I hope it doesn’t happen. It doesn’t feel like there’s any satisfactory way forward for her character. She just seems ruined and the game may as well bury her at this point. :confused:

Bargained well and done.

Arthas betrayed everyone by putting on the helm and creating so many dead. This act would spite Arthas because his service would corral and detain the scourge.

Yeah, and that’s the problem. But, of course, you won’t see it that way.

Yes, but you wouldn’t phrase that as an “act of service”. You’d be like “Let me do this, because damn Arthas!” you wouldn’t be like “Let me perform this one last act…in the service of ****ing Arthas!”

How does Sylvanas becoming the new jailer allow her to retain her status as a Horde character?

Is Magni still Alliance?

No but you can have Drannosh. I mean, someone has to fill his father’s boots.

Dude, you’d call the Horde Winning the war “Alliance Bias.”
It’s starting to ring hollow at this point.

Why is that a “problem” exactly?

I support getting kael’thas back.

We never won any war.

Take a look at the Alliance roster.

Take a look at the Horde roster.

You tell me.

Nah bring back Garrosh and about all dead horde guys and its equal.

Irrelevant. An Allaince Character being Alliance isn’t a “Problem” for anyone besides you, it seams. It’s not like it’s a Horde or Neutral character going to Alliance.

And I said you can have Drannosh. He’s literally Bolvar’s contemporary.

Bolvar hasn’t been alliance for over a decade.

He’s been an Alliance character since Vanilla WoW though… Like, is these really such an issue?

I just don’t understand what the problem is.

I would think so.

I mean, its not surprising; and frankly my only issue with it is that it all but guarantees that this expansion is going to be oversaturated with Alliance characters in the forefront of the story like Legion. Or, in the case of Valeera and Calia, the “most Alliance possible BE and Undead” being our “Horde” reps.

Could it kill Blizz to give Voss some damned character development in Maldraxxus? Maybe have her run into her dad, and grow into her forced role (rather than just using her as a damned placeholder for Queen Absentee Mom). How about some long overdue characterization for Rommath with Keal in Revendreth? No Blizz? Can’t have him running into one of his closest friends, who’s fate he even now harbors regret and guilt over? We can’t have that right?!
