This has a lot of potential to introduce old gods threat and delving further into the "Sylvanas went too far this time"
Honestly the only reason Xal'atath is in there, is as an easter egg, as she is the fifth character in that slide who is getting their story built upon in the upcoming content.
Flaming Garrosh comes back from the dead to save the world from crazy chicks and old gods
ugh, at this point I can't see what they can do to Sylvanas that feels good. If she goes evil, just feels like Garrosh 2.0 and a waste of a character. If she is redeemed, just feels like Grommash, and is disappointing.
It doesn't surprise me that Sylvanas would have something to do with Xal'atath.
Is Sylv using the blade after Xal escapes? It wouldn't be an old god then, just a (mostly) regular weapon, lol.
my thought here is rather deep and hope anyone follows. Sylvanas will get Xal after we impower her again and try to use it to further her power. This would appear to take place during or after the Azsara raid, where we "end" Aszara. N'zoth at this point need a new harbinger and Xal will use Sylvanas as such. during which Saurfang will come back into play and Unite the Horde again with a mission to save Sylvanas from this fate. Even though he hate Sylvanas, he values honor and all that is tied to it, and what is more honorable than saving you Warchief.Xal/Sylvanas will be a raid boss in the 8.3 raid where we kill off Xal and free Sylvanas from the control where as she steps down from warchief. This fall in (kinda) with the whisper of Il'ginoth "Hour of her third death will usher in our coming". Sylvanas will "die" when Xal takes control of her.Lot of holes but its a fun, off the cuff thought of it all.
Ugh, I don't want to kill Sylvanas :( Really hope she knows what she's doing, and she won't turn into a ''Garrosh 2.0'', even if I believe Blizzard said she won't. Can't wait to read more about this, and glad to see this dagger returning in BfA.
pls no second garrosh, shes a too cool char for that
Oh dear
I love the talking Artifacts so I am excited to see their story!Call is the only transmog I will have on my Spreist, except when I have a wand lmao
I'm..... mildly concerned about this stage now. Was not expecting Knifau to fall into The Banshee Queen's hands.
Just praying that the writing ends up saving itself.
Remember what happened the last time a Horde warchief dabbled with relics of the void?
Damn sylvanas you are mad.
Uh.... Knaifu? Are we SURE she's not Garrosh 2?
Remember that Xal'atath was related to the Old Gods' general of the ground of Tirisfal Glades. It's possible that Sylvanas knew about her before.
to get out of going full garrosh 2.0 they need to make something like knifu & waifchief vs OG's & queen Azshara to make lore matter again. maybe the loas, elune, cenarius or azeroth help making alliance leave horde fight against void lords :P
