At the very least they’re doing the unthinkable and for once fleshing out the replacement (Rokhan) into an actually likeable character. Now all he needs is his unique model for when he bangs the Zandalari Queen and forges a new Troll Empire.

Sir, are you trying to trigger me?
Because it is working. 
Is she even still around after the Darkshore warfront? The Alliance very much kills her before reaching Sira.
Does any character who dies in a warfront actually die?
Yes, but they had Azerite afaik on those demolishers, might make 'em fly a bit further, ever thought of that?!
Shandris is from the city ‘‘Ara-Hinam’’, and that’s clearly where Nazjatar is now, as you find one of her childhood friends ghost there. So no, she isn’t from Suramar.
We lost Nazgrim, and we had him since Wrath.

Much in the same way as Horde kill Shandris in the warfront.
Shandris is the equivalent for the Horde - they’re both still alive.
Not even sure Maeiv or Sira are dead, given that the warfront bosses of Arathi are all fine.
They don’t die. They reach 1 HP and teleports away or something.
I was more thinking of freshly introduced characters, whose only purpose is to be killed off early on for shock value, or something.
ENOUGH!!!

They were blessed by shaman and possibly mages - but not Azerite. That was a theory before the details came out iirc
I didn’t even know Shandris was there in the Horde warfront. I guess because I’m always the one who has to actually be in the back building stuff…
The only one I can see being dead is Sira because that’d be like, the end of her storyline, logically?
But yeah, if we go by the actual logic they’ve shown so far, nobody in the warfronts actually die.
Hey, maybe that’s why the wars can keep going expansion after expansion? Like, even the Grunts and Footmen that we kill by the hundreds just need to do a corpse run.
Damn Spirit Healers.
Everyone is learning this sacred arte these days…
Huh, considering how Teldrassil just burned like that, I figured it was due to Azerite.
Like most things Blizzard writes, Rule of Cool applies - the entire tree burns down because it’s the more striking image.
It maybe should have been Azerite but the book has been written and can’t be unwritten

See, this is why I don’t give the writers any slack.
Why not just use Azerite War Machines? They could roll over the Night Elves to justify how quickly the blitzkrieg goes, demonstrate how powerful Azerite is, and they could fire on Teldrassil without creating a massive plot hole…
… also, it would mean that our first introduction to the mighty Azerite War Machine isn’t “It kills a few soldiers and destroys one tower, before Anduin breaks it with his sword”…

Maybe it was blessed by the shamans and mages with Azerite!

Regarding Night Elf priests, we know that they don’t even know what they’re about. In the healing quest with the first aid things back in Legion with the first aid quests, they talk about gods they can’t even remember. It’s reasonable to say that this rules out Elune

Now I wonder why they even gave them Priests. Nightborne weren’t exactly prominently using Void except for one Boss, so it can’t be for Shadowpriests alone - they didn’t get Druids even though they had one of those.
The dark trolls revered Elune, some Zandalari trolls do (they are called Heretics however).
Fair to say, the Night Elves served Elune.
