So how did Jaina Proudmoore get abducted?

Lore Story
1

Jaina Proudmoore is amongst the most skilled and iconic archmages in the entire Warcraft franchise, and one [of the many] area of expertise in which she excels is that of teleportation magic. In BfA, she was seen teleportating INSTANTLY and WITHOUT needing to do any form of gesture or ritual. She just stared at Saurfang and disappeared, a mere thought was all she needed to teleport.

So couldn’t she just teleport away while the dark angels were capturing her? I mean, it should be impossible to abduct someone who can instantly teleport away with a mere thought…

Also very convenient that you did not actually show her being abducted, it is done off-screen, so funny.

If it happened in Bolarus Jaina would never teleport and leave her people defenses.

She was having another nightmare and when she woke up she confused death angel for Arthas and she followed him willingly.

I assume its the very same reason how a bunch of lvl5 Defias Thugs managed to kidnap Varian Wrynn. Just call it Blizzard terrible storytelling and all will be fine.

She saw Thrall flex in the distance, and was left drooling on the floor. Easiest pick the Valkyr had.

The funniest thing is the dalaran butcher is still alive.
Anyways she should have been dead in BoD, you should be grateful shes still alive and stop whining about her abduction :confused:

Its already proven actually and she clearly said she will free us all.
Shes using the jailer to free undead from their suffering and us from death.

Stay tuned, SL is coming.

The other 3 characters are not masters in teleportation.

Like look at Baine, he is literally a cow wielding a tree stump, he wishes he could teleport like Jaina.

We have no knowledge about the Powers these death-Angels have, maybe their chains block all other magic. Maybe she was unable to perform the gestures needed for teleportation while bound.
We didn’t need a special explanation for all other characters, we don’t need one for her. She’s not the center of all WoW.

Even Jaina has a casting time. If you don’t give her a chance, she won’t teleport. Not to mention that she had her magic blocked few times already.

I already proved she does not need to cast it, she teleported instantly without doing anything in the Baine cinematic.

Everyone has a casting time for teleport. Thats just unfair she doesnt.

We have seen her teleport since WC3, she is the most iconic mage in the Warcraft franchise, so it makes sense that she would be able to teleport instantly. It is not unfair at all. She is a natural prodigy and genius.
