It really wasn’t too bad in Legion. Ever since BfA was announced, the hostility has been on a permanent upward slope.

How can she betray something if that something is nothing?
Checkmate, rebels.

It upticks every time there is a big FaCtIoN cOnFlIcT expansion or the factions are pushed to the forefront. The lazy writing comes to the forefront.
Man I always liked Sylvanas kinda sad she left tbh

Lucky she shot her mouth off like a 12 year old losing a beauty pageant contest.
Otherwise we’d be in a real serious jam huh?

Saurfang knew that some defiance thrown in her face would have made her lose her cool. It happened on Darkshore with “You can’t kill hope” and it he used that to his advantage.
It’s a tragically poor use of a good character. On one hand, Sylvanas was the vengeance driven leader of the Forsaken who helped them escape the Lich King’s servitude.
On the other, it was plain as day since Wrath that she would someday go mega-villain.

horde - official traitor to sylvanas
I would betray Sylvanas all the time, every time.
Eh Sylvanas and Azshara are up to something. They both saw something coming and decided to use each other in a partnership.
Remember Sylvanas hates one thing above all else and that is being chained and forced to serve a master.
She figured out what was up with the maw and decided to play the long game. The whole show at the gate was so that she could warn us and still maintain her cover as a loyal subject to the Jailor.
I mean I wrote this scenario off the top off my head right after the last part of the campaign was released. If Blizzard writers can’t write this with all the setup they have then they are too horrible to remain in the industry.
Think about it for one second, she has never “lost her cool”
In life she was the most brilliant tactician of the Blood Elves faction and under the Lich King she was his greatest champion and also his most brilliant tactician as far as his Commanders go.
She never “lost her cool” with the burning of the tree. That was spite and malice which are completely different. Burning the tree was gonna happen anyway, the tree was a fortified strategic location and therefore a prime target for either capture or destruction.
Thusly, her actions after beating Saurfang are either a ruse or completely out of character an bad writing. She had already beaten Saurfang and the “resistance” was crushed. Saurfang’s pitiful attack after all that cool cinematic DBZ like pizazz barely scratched her and was already healing.
There is no way such a brilliant General would freak out and scream REEEEEEEEEEE at the sky to begin with and much less of a chance after she had already won.
This was clearly meant to make them suspicious of something darker and to prepare.
I suspect Sylvanas had discovered the truth of the circle of life and death and that the Jailor was making moves and that the only way to beat him was to send the combined forces of the Horde and Alliance against him.
