Make alternate Grommash Hellscream THE WARCHIEF!
Make him somehow survive the outcome of the battle with Yrel and the Lighbound. He’s not perfect but his character has evolved a lot prior and through the events of Warlords of Draenor and on top he’s an iconic character whom I think most of us including Thrall would love to have him back even from an alternate timeline.
He’s not a flawless character and especially his patience skills, but that make it just more funny to have him around and him having to get better at it. Alternate Grommash has proven himself to be resilient, stubborn, proud, resourceful, clever and having a strong sense of freedom by standing toe to toe with Mannaroth and refusing Gul’dan’s Blood Pact. He also leads with STRENGTH and the desire to Conquer and bring GLORY to his clan and the horde which are qualities to admire even though his ‘‘conquest’’ was aimed at us. A True Natural Horde Leader.
But here’s the part I liked even more! He MANAGED to outgrow himself and his nature by the end of Warlords Of Draenor. He resisted corruption, stood with his ‘‘former enimies’’ against the greater threat, and made peace with the Draenei in the end of the expansion ALL for the greater good. As we all know from the Mag’har storyline things didn’t work out but even at the VERY END he held the line for us and his people the Mag’ har Orcs to escape in the end . A hero through and through in my eyes whose character showed it’s capable of growth and still continues to care for his people at the cost of his own life.
THE GOOD thing is Blizzard itself left an open ending as to what happened to him with that final battle between him and Yrel & The Lightbound and they CAN BRING HIM BACK and put him to good use on Azeroth! I think we can all agree:
''BRING HIM BACK - OUR WARCHIEF AND US CAN WAIT NO LONGER Haha!
Lok’tar Ogar!

He was a loser. Started an invasion without even conquering his world with massive rebellions/factions still alive (draenei controlling half of Shadowmoon Valley and Talador, Frostwolves half of Frostfire Ridge, Laughing Skull insurrections and Arrakoas reigning over the upper parts of Spires of Arak), his vanguard got one victory because they took their enemy by surprise before being obliterated, then Grommash is just seen here and there and disappear without doing anything remotly impressive. Remember that he watched Kargath death match and leave as soon as Cho’Gall attacks without a care in the world.
Then he get played around by Gul’dan, help to fight Archimonde, and we discovers decades after for him that he absolutely fail to lead the Iron Horde - again - that is collapsing military and culturally. He couldn’t even save his own - real this time - son.
Frankly does anyone really wants more stories with this Grommash? Iron will isn’t enough to make a compelling character.
Blackhand was the MVP of the Iron Horde without doubt, which is funny because the main Blackhand was a puppet.
And more importantly, what does this Grommash would change for the Mag’har? Why would the MU Horde follow him? Because of name dropping?
I think it’d be better to develop Geya’rah, make her a combination of the best things of the Hellscreams and Durotan’s lineage.
It would be great not to have another girlboss.
If they develop her well she won’t be another girlboss girlbossing around like a Mary Sue.
But that might be abit much to ask from Blizzard these days!
we aren’t short of female characters really so what is the point.
We’re short good written female characters…
While talking about it, we’re short good written male characters too.
Pre-bfa sylvanas,Lady vash,Tess Greymane,Pre-bfa Tyrande,Onyxia,Warcraft 3 Jaina, Maiev,Lilian Voss, Moira Tharnissian We have had plenty well written female charachters.
But i do agree now situation being different now. The issue is charachter writing in general
