Illidan was lord of kael'thas, so he must be better from kael

In the Warcraft 3 illidan was master of Nagas and blood elves, I mean illidan was lord of kael’thas and must be stronger than him. But:
we see kael’thas is almost, the most powerful hero in the game!!!

I mean… i don’t think its the game’s fault if you have trouble killing kael’thas as Illidan.

so you’re saying illidan should you able to beat KT you say… Okay then, tell me what about deathwing and ragnaros against any other hero?

depends on the situation and chosen talents but Kael Thas is vulnerable to pretty much ANY hero who comes in melee range distance of him, and Illidan is one of the best chasers in the game and can easily kill Kael if he is left unguarded by team mates or he overextends his siege attacks on forts.
