    Elune stopped Tyrande from killing Sylvanas.

    Surprised that Sylvanas didn't know what happened to Nathanos

    So the Night Warrior is still a joke and Elune can randomly decide to weaken it's power whenever she wants but is happy to leave whatever part kills the host. Cool. Laughed at the magic super jump at least.
    Also confused on why Sylvanas is shocked at someone having killed Nathanos, what did she think would happen after she dumped him on Azeroth and ordered him to go stand around his old homestead by himself whilst she went Maw Shopping? I honestly thought she wanted him to be a distraction after he failed to kill Bwom.

    Ah, the power of plot armor.

    Any guesses on when we'll get the rest of the cutscenes/lore for patch 9.1?

    Yeah, exactly. What the fuck? Wut? I'm incredulous. Out of all the blunders they could've committed this is the one I seriously didn't anticipate, it's just so... stupid on so many levels. This shouldn't even be a factor. It shouldn't even be a plot point. Like what? It should be a given that Sylv knew of Nathanos' death and even if she didn't she shouldn't act surprised, like they both are war veterans they knew exactly what they were getting into, is she a rookie or what? This is a new low. I'm too embarassed to even finish that cinematic. Legit disgusted right now. It's like they find new ways to make it even worse.

    It started so well too, Sylvanas with the bantz... Oh Lord make it stop



    Also I just realized why that Tyrande vs Nathanos cinematic exists. It was just to prop up the slushy Nathanos storyline and not to give Nelves any sort of catharsis. Tyrande is just an instrument in that cringy as fuck plot. Woah.

    Sylvanas' plot armor is too big.

    you can send the entire Pantheon of Titans against her and she'll survive somehow.

    Lol, the mighty power of the cringe warrior that supposedly consumes people to the point where they are a danger to themselves and other.. just ran out? Why am I not surprised that Elune seems to be the cheap chinese knock-off of Duracell?

    That is probably the only notable thing in the cinematic so far and also one most won't give a toss about .

    re: the anduin cutscene ...has the writing always been this soapy? good guy does bad things, bad guy looks remorseful for part they played in bad deed. to quote the kids "total cringe."

    I hate to bring it up, but it reminded me of a cheap version of Louisoix Leveilleur.. this kind of anime fighting looks just silly in WoW.

    And yes, the story absolutely implied that she didn't care about him and pretty much sacrifced him as a pawn like all others.

    Night Elves cannot get a break can they?

    What was even the point of giving her super jump? They seriously couldn't think of a better way to have Tyrandes power drop?

    Especially given how Tyrande is an archer they could have done this by charging an arrow with Elune's power (or just straight up using her moonfire powers) instead of doing DBZ fighting moves.
