Topic	lol, people are legit upset with sylvanas windrunner?
agesboy 08/10/18 10:40:54 PM #15:	Regarding her objectives during the war, which many at first assumed were changed to spite the nelfs: She first attacked Teldrassil to achieve three objectives. First was to occupy Darnassus to cut off Azerite supply to the Eastern Kingdoms to try to prevent the Alliance from amassing any. Second was to force a political crisis upon Anduin as the worgen and nelfs bickered about which homeland to reclaim first. Third hasn't been openly stated yet except that it was a "worrying" reason, but it's probably Old Gods shit. She realized her second objective wouldn't happen during her conversation in the cinematic; that they would retain hope of reclaiming the homeland and possibly be even fiercer enemies. That the worgen and night elves were too unified at this point to be split apart by her schemes. So she was forced to abandon the second objective while accomplishing the first and third. Remember that ever since the Siege of Orgrimmar, the Alliance has absolutely been the dominant power. Varian could have wiped them off the face of the earth if he wanted to, and that power discrepancy still hadn't been recified. Two major military victories (remember that all of the alliance forces assaulting the Undercity were killed by blight, while Sylvannas retreated her remnants) have put them arguably on equal ground, though. Sylvannas is absolutely amoral and probably evil. But she is acting in the interests of the Horde in her own way. Following Saurfang's battle plans would have led to an absolute defeat; even Saurfang begrudgingly agrees she is making the "correct" decisions, even if they were ones he'd never entertain in the least. Sylvannas has been like this ever since late Wrath when she jumped off Icecrown Citadel, experienced the Shadowlands, and decided to do whatever she could to avoid death. She stopped seeing her subordinates as pawns to be thrown away as Garrosh did, but instead as shields to protect her from death. She's a terrible person, but at least she isn't flippantly evil like we thought the cutscene first implied. --- https://imgur.com/LabbRyN raytan and Kana are on opposite ends of the Awesome Spectrum. <cite>agesboy posted [p:906665022] in lol, peopl...
