When is Maiev going to use the Shadow Orb ?

[Freshouttajail]

The Shadow Orb was an optional mission, so maybe its not considered canon.

If we gotta start FILTERING in-game events as canon or non-canon then there's terribly bad issues with the writing.

Exactly this. People from Blizzard tend to forget about many things...

inb4 "Then we wouldn't have a blanced game hurr durr!!11one" - yeah, then don't add stupid OP things in the game if we aren't going to use it. Or just do something with them(like underpowering Malfurion so he didn't one shot Sylvanas).

The vindicar should have been destroyed by Sargaras or whatever. Just pilot it into his ass to distract him so that the Pantheon has more time to channel their jailing spell.

Pretty much a given for the RTS games leading up to WoW. What is canon about them has basically been codified in the "Chronicle" series of reference books - everything else is basically resigned to non-canonicity until it is brought up again (if ever). I don't recall if the "Chronicle" entry covering WC3: TFT happens to mention the Shadow Orb or not, but I don't think it does.

Right after the Vindicaar shows up

Knowing draenais it probably is already crashed somewhere, they just didnt tell anyone yet.

Blizzard right now: "The what?"

That would be actually a sensible thing to do.

Malfurion has been depowered in lore eons before his fight with Sylvanas and has nothing to do with her and everything with Blizzard deknaakifying their work.

When? Just curious.
