zandalari just joined the horde as arguably one of the top most powerful races in it. so powerful that talanji can just tell sylvanas they're skipping the blood oath and she accepts it.
now compare them to our regular trolls. its basically like a virgin/chad comic. zandalar trolls are like 12 feet tall, glowing eyes, can be paladins, cool dinosaur skin, gold tattoos, vast golden city that sure it got sieged but they kept hold of it, and have the favor of like 10 dinosaur gods who show up in person to help them and give them blessings. they also have turbo regeneration that heals them fully in 3 seconds
now our darkspear trolls are not so good. they have no glowing eyes, live on a tiny island which they humilatingly lost entirely to a level 10 warlock after having lost their last tiny island to murlocs, their leader is dead and a ghost and is also best known for making the dumbest succession decision in all of history, and even their cool mysterious sounding loa that the shadow hunters worshipped bwonsamdi is now palling around with the zandalari instead.
btw even vol'jin's ghost is spending more time with the zandalar than his own people now. also he considered the zandalari enemies and was proud the darkspear had gotten away from their dumb xenophobic troll ways but look where that got them.
based on all of this how will darkspear ever be relevant again. they have rokhan and no one else. maybe that druid lady. but zandalari druids are like 10 times cooler than troll druids too with their dinosaur powers. darkspear kind of awkwardly tried to join the cenarion circle but never got taken seriously
and you can bet whatever happens to sylvanas the zandalari are going to be key players in it. meanwhile the darkspear are just kind of part of the horde maybe. they are probably doomed to go slowly extinct.
how can we save our old friends the darkspears. how can we make them relevant again. obviously they have absolutely nothing to offer the zandalari trolls. but what do they have that no one else does now. will we ever see them do anything ever again?
