As gratifying as this would be to see, I kind of doubt it. Based on how Sylvanas has been treated lately, I think Blizzard will likely have her go out in a blaze of glory. Either dying to us player characters, or giving her life so that we can stand a better chance against the Jailer.
And this is assuming that Blizzard decides to kill her off at all.
Well there are 4 possibilities, in Order whats best for the Night Elves to what is worst
Tyrande Kills Sylvanas and ends her story, big victory for the Night Elves, time for an Ewok Party
Tyrande doesn’t get the kill on Sylvanas, and has to deal with her kill being “Stolen”. You could reasonably continue her story from there and wrap up her issues some other way
Sylvanas gets a redemption and Tyrande Forgives her, not all that good tbh, does a disservice to both their characters.
Sylvanas get’s a redemption and Tyrande Dies as a Raid Boss. This would be… a slap in the face.
Tyrande has been throwing Stygia all over the place in the Scenario incidentally so she is actually wielding one of the powers of the Maw against the realm’s denizens!
If Sylvanas finds herself face to face with Tyrande she will find her own power used against her!
Sad to say, I kind of doubt it. Largely because I can’t see them having Tyrande follow Kael’s path entirely. She’ll learn some lesson and allow some restraint at some point in Shadowlands. Until then though, she’s gonna rampage.
(Satire): No, Thrall will put down Sylvanas, as it’s his duty to put down errant Warchiefs of the Horde to redeem it.
(Commentary): That, and he promised Tyrande in the recent novel that he’d bring her Sylvanas’ head so… this might not be as far fetched as I thought, actually.
I wonder what happens with this unfulfillable promise. Either Thrall dies or Tyrande dies I guess, either that or Sylvanas gets redeemed so hard that Tyrande doesn’t want her head anymore.
