-sylvanas is in stormheim and yells at you everytime you do a warden tower.
-vol'jin got stabbed and died and there i s no new troll leader yet.
-broxigar got a momument dedicated to him
-the other saurfang is in grommash hold being orc leader
-liandrin is in suramar and vindicaar
-aehtas mageguy is in the vindicaar i think (though he may technically be kirin tor, not horde)
now i do have to say alliance got a few nice RP quets with anduin that horde don't have an equivalent for.

Words to live by.
The moment you start seeing horde character is the moment lorewise I run for the hills seeing as from cata to end of WoD everything was about the horde and horde characters and they all sucked with the lore and even game content apart from some raids.
Also really horde players are such a bunch of whining kids cant even go one xpack without characters from your faction mattering lol try 3 xpacks.
Perhaps your question is its own answer. Just how much of a hero is Sylvanas?
Liadrin has the belf problem: Garry had to pull some actual politics on them to force them to stay in the Horde.
Aethas is a politician, his struggles are not of heroic sort.
Baine getting set up as a hero is the only thing that can generate more cringe than Anduin.
Also:
Same for the other Stormrage. The King of Stormwind has already been testing boundaries in MoP and so on.
Feels right to me. You can't be a hero of any kind if you have to be super strictly tied to one of the factions, not after all the world has been through.
"Illidan an alliance hero"
What?

What is that "Horde" thing you are talking about?
When did these niggas die? Hams should be at druid HQ, Drek still chilling in AV and no one gives two shits about fuck boi Aethas, but is still fucking KT dick.

Very clearly is, that's the PoV from this side. Similarly to how we see Sylvanas as our hero.
Yeah it's really irritating not seeing any of the Horde heroes help out. I was going to list all the Horde heroes we're missing but I realized I couldn't think of all that much because they're all fucking dead. All we really have left is Baine, Lor'themar, and Sylvanas and none of them have really done anything against the Legion throughout the whole expansion. Who's our orc leader? Our troll leader? Is Sylvanas really supposed to be the face of the Horde? I like Sylvanas but not as the face of the Horde. We need a true Horde race like a tauren, orc, or troll to be warchief not an undead elf.
Man it's just so irritating how the Horde was completely ignored this expansion. Even the Alliance has like half of it's leaders left out. You'd think this would've been the one time where ALL the leaders team up and fight together each having their own important role in the war but no it's a human/elf/draenei party. Where are the dwarves? The gnomes? Not one of the The Council of Three Hammers even showed up at the Broken isles assault, they were totally left out. You seen like 5 seconds of Gelbin Mekkatorque then he just disappears. That mech suit was fucking badass I wanted to see more of that and I could only imagine how badass it would've been to see Muradin Bronzebeard kicking ass too. The Pandaren have been nonexistent since MoP so I don't see why they were even introduced as a new playable race at this point. Worgen were only used to fight Sylvanas then after that you never seen Genn Greymane or his worgens ever again.
Ugh it's just getting me worked up thinking about it.
Varok Saurfang is the current Orc leader, with Eitrigg as the sidekick. Both are old as fuck, figure they are waiting to make Thrall's boy the new active leader. And Rokhan is probably leader of the Darkspear, he was the only troll present when you get your prestige quest to visit Sylvanas in Undercity. All faction leaders + some extra people were there.
