Sylvanas to become a Val'kyr

[Deleted]

Pure speculation:

I believe Sylvanas will become the very thing she is hunting by the end of the expansion.

She is after Eyir's power (Queen of Val'kyr), she has 4 'lives remaining'. We have seen the ritual of the creation of a Val'kyr in the Halls of Valor dungeon I believe this is in place for a reason to give us a hint at whats to come.

Eyir will start off as an enemy to the Banshee Queen but will ultimately sacrifice herself for Sylvanas. Eyir knows Sylvanas is key to defeating the legion so by her sacrifice she gives Sylvanas her power and making her a Val'kyr to rule over all Val'kyrs. This also provides her the power to maintain the forsakens lack of creation etc.

We'll get to see/kill Sylvanas but in doing so we get to purify her.

This also fits into the warrior of the light (who says we cant have more then one) Sylvanas and Illadin both have redemption stories ahead and we all know how much Blizzard love a good redemption.

Just an Idea.....

No Idea if a Banshee can become a Val'kyr

and who would you have to take up the mantle of the new Forsaken Leader?

I think with the impending arrival of the Army of the Light, Sylvanas is being set up to be killed by her sister Alleria.

Honestly doubt sylvannas will be killed off. The horde will have nothing recognizable left. Turning her into a val'kyr however would be awesome. Some game changer like this would make things very interesting.

[Frozen Death Knight]

Why would Eyir ever sacrifice herself for Sylvanas after what she did to her? Sylvanas tried to enslave Eyir for personal gain to become immortal, so it would be really, really stupid.

Because ultimately it'll be for the greater good. We've seen many times Enemies becoming allies over less.

If the Val'kyr are willing to sacrifice themselves for Sylvanas surely Eyir would look into why she's worthy of it etc.

You mean kind of like the Alliance?

I realize Sylvannas is kind of popular, but WoW's story doesn't really have Game of Thrones-esque plot twists; it's pretty straightforward. The writing is on the walls; she's a goner. So is Jaina.

Coz those were Arthas' valkyr. Even Sylvanas is gotta be better than Arthas.

and then you will have the (holy) pairing of Light-Sylvanas x Light-Illidan

Literally what? This makes no sense. There is no way Eyir would sacrifice herself for the person who just tried to enslave her.

And why is Sylvanas key to defeating the Legion? What special talent does she have that works against the Legion? If anyone's key to defeating the Legion, it's Velen, Anduin, Turalyon and Alleria or Illidan. For Velen it's personal, Anduin was teased to be involved with the Army of the Light, Turalyon and Alleria are leading it and might still be alive and Illidan was foreseen to be a champion of light being at the forefront of the battle against the Legion, and as a demon hunter he has the most knowledge of the Legion. They will all be instrumental in defeating the Legion. Sylvanas has nothing. She's just busy doing banshee bitch things backstabbing people, as usual, so are the Forsaken. If anything, she will end up a raid boss before we defeat the Legion.

Don't be surprised if they did something like that. Easy way for hack writers.

How is Sylvanas "key to defeating the Legion"?

Watch your tongue puppy. Think about it. Use your little brain, then speak up.

INFRACTION

[Self Inflicted Wounds]

That doesn't make her key.

[Sierra85]

I think she will die at the end of legion and thrall will take back the horde.

Jaina's gone already. She's been replaced by a Dread Lord . The real Jaina is either dead or imprisoned somewhere. Why keep her around though not sure.

Why do you think she so... Oh crap Demon Hunters are around....crap get outta here!!!!

[Gaucho-]

Except that a.) the Army of the Light is currently losing on Argus, running for their lives and sending msgs to Azeroth and b.) the Forsaken will be part of the Army in the future.

Thats a valid point

Umm, what? The only alliance faction to take a hit has been the Humans. Bolvar is "gone" but got a power up cuz he was always power hungry, they lost Varian and Rhonin, but gained an Anduin. Gained a circus midget council.
