They think, at least.

Thats good, I hope Sylvanas will become godlike powers like Kerrigan in SC or something similiar. So she can redeem herself for the Horde, but only for the Horde. Cuz u know, why we need a redemtion for the Alliance? They got what they deserved

Sylvanas as Kerrigan 2.0? I really have no idea who would be happy with this…

probably not you, haha

So why write a story which’ll satisfy a minority of the playerbase?

No, I’m serious. Why should someone should be satisfied by such a plot? It’s not like they made her to a comic villain and an idiot already…

That’s going to happen anyway.

You do realize that if that happens, she’ll disappear from the story like Kerrigan, right? So in the end you will lose and we will get what we want, which is that ugly zombie out of the story.

its funny how ppl thinking that her fanbase is a minority.
First, Lore Player / Role Player are a minority to the main player Base of WoW.
Second, Im sure that we have at least the same number of people who love her as ppl who hate her.

  • She is the number #1 WoW Charakter in things like fanarts/cosplay (thats a fact not just my opinion. Source: Reddit, google search, Artstation, devianart)
  • she is #3 most known WoW Charakter on google trend from 2004 - today (#1 Arthas #2 illidan with just like 2 or 3 more points then Sylvanas)
  • she is the number #1 most known WoW Charakter on google trend in the last 2 years - today
  • she will probably kick Arthas and Illidas from 1# and #2 if she stays in the next xpac
  • also she is #1 WoW Charakter on google search

Thats just some facts, which doesnt mean she is the most loved Charakter in WoW , but for sure she has a really big fanbase

You have any sources for those claims?

all source I just said you can check by yourself.
google trend is usable for everyone and google search too (remember, when you putting names like “Arthas Menethil” on google trend you have to click on “fictional character”)
reddit you need only to use the search function , same for other art sources

Well, the good thing will be that she is gone after her redemption arc. At least something good.

And correlation is not causation.
Being more searched on google relative to other characters searched does not necessarily mean that she is more popular. And being known about does not mean that they have a favorable opinion of her.
Also, how did you find that she has the has the most cosplays/fanart from deviantart/artstation? Do you have a number for her relative to other characters.

go to devianart and write
“Sylvanas windrunner” in the search box. = 4,200 results
“Jaina Proudmoore” = 2,208 results

do this with every Art source (like artstation, reddit , google search/pictures) and every WoW Charakter you want and you have your overall results

You are aware that a solid percentage of “Windrunner” searches brings Windranger from Dota up? I mean, your sourcing is ridiculous.

thats not true. you can check all search results , there is no other windrunner. devianart search feature isnt that dumb. thats why you have to use “Sylvanas Windrunner” together. (just checked not even alleria is showing up for me)

Just scroll down the results. I got Alleria appearing, Vereesa, family shots of all Windrunners, Sylvanas with other wow Characters. I had Kerrigan appear, I had Dota results.

I dont have any dota results, and Alleria and Vereese are only showing up if they together on the same picture. even if there are like 10-15 pictures without sylvanas, doesnt matter. you can see clearly that results are all full of Sylvanas art.
The same you have with Jaina. she is not the only Proudmoore . at the end the numbers are correct, and Sylvanas has more fanarts compared to other characters
