    She's the most capable of giving the legion a real fight and coming up with unconventional tactics. Non of the others have those credentials.

    She is the most experienced out of the group. She's pretty hardline about her orders being followed(see Koltira), which is good for commanding an army. She's actually pretty honorable when it comes to combat, and she's a hell of a strategist. In all honesty, she probably should have been Warchief before Zul'Jin or Garrosh.

    I'm convinced those "spirits" Vol'jin was listening to were actually whispers from Varimathras.

    The reasoning is actually hinted at on the Legion website itself.

    "The Forsaken's ruthless leader is a formidable champion of her people. But with the Burning Legion's invasion, the stakes for the Dark Lady have never been higher. Should Sylvanas perish, her demise will be the beginning of her eternal damnation. All that stand between her and this doom are her Val'kyr, yet few of these spirit guardians remain. As her fate edges closer to the abyss, Sylvanas must decide how far she'll go to protect her people… and whether they're more precious to her than her soul."

    So, in a way, Sylvanas is being set up as a leader that will have to make a difficult choice. The whole thing with Vol'jin was probably to make it seem more prophetic, kinda like Illidan.

    I'm going to put it out there for the non "lore" reason, because she's the only recognizable leader the horde really has left,

    There's no real Orc leader, I mean you can claim Saurfang but barring being an obstacle in Org raids he's never been a huge character, with Vol'jin dead there's no real Troll leader anymore,

    Baine, while promising, is fairly new, and hasn't done a lot to distinguish himself unlike Cairne who established his roots way back in WC3

    Lor'themar, as others have pointed out, the only real memorable thing he's done is try and leave the horde

    and finally you have Gallywix, who is such a non character he doesn't even have a unique model in the game, so I mean really, they didn't really have another choice but give it to her

    1) The goblin only cares about profits, the Tauran is too peaceful, the troll died and the orcs have had bad luck with leadership lately.

    2) Vol'jin claims the Loa told him to do it.

    Kind of simple really.

    If it was my choice, I would pick her too. The others just don't have the stomach to defeat an intergalactic alien/demon horde.

    The Loa *Cough* The Demons*Cough* made Vol'jin make her Warchief or too that they wanted Syl to be a sexy Warchief for horny Warcraft fan boys.
    I myself isn't one, but I do like Syl being Warchief, and no offense to Vol'hin, but we can at least do something and be great again.
    For the Horde!

    Honestly, it could be something as simple as her (for any number of reasons) being more resistant to Fel influence than any of the other potential leaders of the Horde. I mean, she did have Varimathras around for a long ass time.

    Another one? How many sylvanas threads can we get a week we must be heading for a record soon.

    I still don't get how difficult Sylvanas and Illidan are to spell.

    Don't forget Varian (Varien) or Havoc (Havok).

    a.) she's a hot chick
    b.) she's the only one with balls (all the others are insane fanatics (garrosh) or to weak to fight a moth (thrall voljin and so on)
    c.) she's the only one who has the power, the will and the badness to fight the legion
    d.) maybe she can unit with the lich king, build a giant undead army and simply overrun the legion
    e.) she's a hot chick

    need more reasons?

    She's the best military leader left in the Horde.
