Velen's Vision

[McNeil]

He isn't a mary sue. You can't just call a character that because you don't like it. The only close to Mary Sue character is Med'an. And honestly I'd think if one has a flaw regardless of criticalness or not is still not a mary sue. People need to stop using the word Mary Sue as if it's a piece of candy Wrapper.

Rhonin and Thrall are known Mary Sue's, and Anduin is dangerously coming close to becoming one aswell. Currently he has been way too unrealistic, he should've been dead the moment he went into Jade Forest alone. He's like one of those kids from E rated Disney movies, where he can be the savior of the world fighting against a full grown up, military trained army.

Anduin has been spoiled up till Cata, and look how he suddenly rises so quick in power during MoP. And been given so much screen time. This is how Thrall suffered in Cata aswell. I wouldn't be suprised if Anduin ends up killing Sargeras with Thrall...

To be honest, i feel like everything in pandaria is leading us to the legion next expansion... wrathion talking about us having to fight together against our enemies (With his animation looking like infernals falling on azeroth..) and velen talking about anduin being the leader of the army of light against the burning legion..

yes it leads to this, but not necessary in next expansion, Blizzard likes making surprises, and this is expected too much.

[GennGreymane]

as long as they write it well im fine with the little bugger leading an army

as long as he gets some military training..... i mean come on he knows nothing of war, goes up against the legion? you kiddin me

[Haven]

Well of course it will be a human paladin. Humans are the superior race in WoW like in every single other franchise, duh. Also, he's gonna have an uber-sword. And fight for love.

[Xalzel]

Guis, Thrall's child and Anduin will become morphed into one giant super Mary sue construct, and together they will destroy evil!

[Aeula]

So long as it isn't med'an i don't care (I swear if med'an comes back i quit. i hate that lore-fart).

[Nerraw]

unrealistic

Anduin's survival is unrealistic, but these things aren't? You're playing a fantasy game. It's a common trademark that every now and again a person with exceptional attunement to a certain element, in this case the Light, comes into the story.

Med'an has to come back first, before he can be killed off

[Qprah]

I dunno I kinda like the idea. Just imagine how large that army is going to have to be to stand up to the Legion.

Varian leading Stormwind
Muradin leading Ironforge
Tyrande leading Darnassus
Gelbin leading Gnomergan
Velen leading The Exodar
Greymane leading Gilneas
Jaina leading Dalaran
Chen leading the Pandaren
Thrall leading Orgrimmar
Vol'jin leading Echo Isles
Baine leading Thunder Bluff
Sylvanas leading The Undercity
Lor'themar leading Silvermoon
Gallywix leading Bildgewater
Tirion leading The Argent Crusade
Malfurion leading The Cenarion Circle
Muln Earthfury leading The Earthen Ring
Darion leading The Ebon Blade
Bolvar leading the Scourge
Alexstrasza leading the Red Dragonflight
Ysera leading the Green Dragonflight
Nozdormu leading the Bronze Dragonflight
Kalecgos leading the Blue Dragonflight
Wrathion leading the Black Dragonflight
Illidan leading the Illidari Demon Hunters
Akama leading the Broken
Turalyon leading the Sons of Lothar
Cenarius leading the Ancients
Me'dan leading the Council of Tirisfal
Thorim leading the Watchers
A'dal leading the Naaru
Algalon calling the Patheon
And their combined forces lead by Auduin in his pure light armor.

And on the other side

Sargaras
Kil'jaeden
Archimonde (in ghosty spirit form)
Talgath
Fel'dan
Mephistroth
Mal'Ganis
Balnazzar
Varimathras
Detheroc
and an army of hundreds of millions of demons.

a grown-ass orc striking down a teenage human ... no way he should have survived ... except via plot armor I guess ...

He just popped PW:Shield which, after breaking, left him at 1HP. You just don't see him cast it because of Garrosh' particle effects ^^

[Faroth]

Calling it now, Varian dies in the Garrosh fight and Anduin becomes king. In the vision, he was wearing a king's armor! :P

MoP is the Alliance's real time to shine, they're gonna come out bad ass and really have their "fist pump" moment.

And then Garrosh kills our leader that's gotten pretty much the only Alliance development for the last 3 expansions.

Yeah, that sounds like a grand idea...

[Trassk]

Wrathion leading the Black Dragonflight

sorry dude, all the black dragons have been wiped out, as most now refer to wrathion as the last of his kind.. he arranged to have the remaining black dragons killed.

The dragonflights dont consist of only dragons, the blue's have mortal mages that protect them, greens have mortal druids etc. Wrathion has his own set of agents as well as the other black dragons that are unaccounted for, such as Sabellian. Although Wrathion would be the black dragonflight leader in name only, due to not really leading any dragons.

[Zanito44]

You know thinking about it now, Prophet Skeram's vision came true so I don't understand how you guys can't trust Velen. When someone gives you a glimpse of future events and you deny it but it comes true anyway do you get pissed off or something?

no usually they just say 'blizzard worked the game around that it soooo stupid!"

Wrathion taking over a clutch of drakonids is one way I could see them becoming a neutral playable race. Each one that joins the alliance and the horde are secret agents that he's seeding the factions with to more easily influence them.

[spikess]

Wrathion is going to help . Anduin Wrynn and Wrathion are going to change what we all belive , and make Azeroth a better place for all of the races

Disc Priests are kinda OP right now. If he stacked enough mastery I could see this working out.

[Deleted]

Plenty of "Alliance" heroes are completely neutral.

At least they are still alive, neutrality is sort of Alliance "retirement". Horde "heroes" on the other hand have a nasty habit of ending up dead or as a boss encounter.
