Yeah, but you never see my Shaman controlling Arcane and Light powers. He's just a super strong Shaman, supposedly the "best of his class". He's strong at what he's always been doing. Med'an is just "lmao I can't decide which power I'll use so I'll just use all of them and be the best at them to boot while still being essentially a kid". At least it makes sense for your character - he's been realistically honing his skills since he was practically a "young adventurer fresh for the meatgrinder", and he/she's dedicated himself solely to his/her chosen path. He/she's been at this for like 10-15 years. Med'an is more like a snotty kid that just got everything handed to him.

Mr. Al I just want you to know you’re absolutely fascinating to me… Literally the first person in the entirety of the Internet I’ve seen defend Rey. If she’s not a Mary Sue then I have a few questions for you. How is it she knows more about the millennium falcon as in how to repair it than Han Solo? How is it she knows how to fly a spaceship better than Poe despite never having flown one before she left home? How does she able to outfight Luke fucking Skywalker? How was she able to use more of the force than Yoda? Because at the end of the day there are a few facts you need to keep in mind, Han Solo knows his ship better than anyone else, Poe is the best pilot in the ENTIRE resistance, Luke Skywalker is canonically one of the greatest light saber welders of all time, canonically Yoda was probably the most powerful Jedi to ever live in regards to the force. And before you try to pull that Palpatine bullshit Luke was the son of Aniken. Aniken was a powerful as fuck Jedi/Sith. Luke still had to learn over the course of months how to use his power, he could barely levitate a light saber at the start. Not gonna lie friend I also hate the guts of any sexist bigot I hear about… really don’t believe anybody calling Rey Mary Sue is sexist though.

Like Sylvanas, I despise Me'dan's character for the fact that what made him "special" and overpowered was the nuances of a prophecy and literally every major magical character just "gifting" him their powers. Gaining new powers and becoming stronger doesn't make a strong character! In Sylvanas' case, it was getting new powers and plot-armor for some plot-turnaround that says "Oh she was doing this for the greater good". Naw, man: all this was because she was scared sh**less of going to Hell when she committed suicide off the Icecream Citadel.

You ever read one of those really shitty OC characters that edgy teens like to write on OC sites? OC meaning "original character" (boy ain't that an irony). The ones where teens who really have no clue that power balance is what makes an interesting story and world, and just think making their character super cool, super strong and "always wins" are somehow a substitute character traits and personality? That's Med'an. He's just a warcraft OC. The author couldn't handle the fact that different powers exist and none of them have been proven as "superior" over the rest (neither Shamanistic/Druidic Nature Magic, Mage's Arcane or the Priestly Holy Light) so he just decided "Fuck it, give him everything, that way he can be overpowered without me needing to adhere to the established power balance of magic in this universe". And that's the sign of a really bad writer. One who hasn't outgrown his teenage worldview, or who simply thinks that "only dumb kids with power fantasies read and watch this".

im sorry but doesnt sylvanas have to literally use magic to keep her form from just rotting away? and that she noticed she smells like a cadaver no matter how much she bathes? i know this is a joke comment... but i also know there are genuine sylvanas simps. like, bro, shes a walking corpse. there is no way youre getting it on even if she hypothetically agrees. just removing her clothes would probably overwhelm your nose with the stench of decay.

The thing I hate the most about Med'an is that Blizz totally messed up Garona's heritage and Warcraft 1's lore and timeline just to create this character. Before Med'an was an idea, Garona was half-Orc and half-HUMAN. The idea was that orcs had been on Azeroth for a long enough time for there to be an adult (or at least adolescent) half-orc, half-human hybrid to exist by the end of Warcraft 1. And this aspect of Garona was such an iconic, and tragic, and compelling story point. One of Garona's lines in "The Last Guardian" talks about how humans only ever see the parts of her that are orcish but orcs only ever see the parts of her that are human, that she is both and neither and considered inferior by both sides. She has lines about "feeling human, and I haven't felt human in a long time." But, nooooo, let's just trash the power of all those sentiments and make her half-draenei, instead, so she can have this super-duper awesome power child who is THREE races. Oh, and orcs have only been on Azeroth for like 5 years by then end of Warcraft 1.

I think the change of heritage was not done to jusify Me'Dan... but the other way around. Warcraft 1'story was pretty mutch made 'on the go'; and a whole universe had to be made form a bunch of names scribbled in a piece of paper as the games went on... what I mean is: there is an orc clan in Draenor called the Blackrock CLan, who PRECISELLY ends up rulling a mountain in Azeroth called Blackrock Mountain?... and speaking of Azeroth; in the first game Azeroth is the name of a kingdom with's capital is Stormwind... but in Warcraft II, Azeorth is a continent; from witch Stormwind is just a kingdom... but in Warcraft 3 onwards, Azeroth is the planet... or is it Stormwin the capital of the Kingom of Azeroth in the continent of Azeroth in the planet of Azeroth?? XDDD The biggest change in fact was the orcs been evil. In Og Warcraft, orcs qhe unnapollogetically evil; they where in legue with the demons very willinglly; and that was the appeal; been able to play with the bad guys, not saving the realm but destroying it. It was Warcraft III the game that made the tragic antiheroes; been deceived by demons to be their slaves; but with their main goal been survival, not conquest... So, in the same spirit of retcon; in Warcraft III we are presented with Gromash Hellscream; a cheftain born in Draenor, and veteran of the war against the Draenei, the Ist War andthe 2nd War.... and he was the first chieftain to drink the blood of Manoroth... but if the opening of the portal was decades before (or at least 15 years before) the Ist War... how long ago was the war against the Draenei? and if the Frostwlf clan was sepparated from the Horde inmediatelly after crossing the Portal... how is Thrall only in his twenties in Warcraft III? If Thrall was born soon after arriving to the planet... he should be rougthlly the same age as Garona, and therefore been allready anadult (or a late teen) by the time the 1st War ended... and we know he was still a baby... ...so the easiest way to re-con all that was to say that the orcs started the 1st war short after the opening of the portal...but this makes the plothole: then how Garona is posible? ...and that's why they came out with the half-draeney thing Don't make mewrong, i hate Me'Dan... but Garona's herotage... I see the reasoning

Thrall was never that powerful. No need to backpedal. He earned his skills as a fighter in the arena since childhood, and as a shaman from Drek'thar's tutelage. He didn't one shot Deathwing either, despite how people remember the boss fight. Eye-rolling at Thrall is definitely misinformed.

For the most part it was all the "little stories" spanning a multitude of scenarios we as humans could relate to. Then "something happened" . . . and every time you turned around there was some kind of Earth-Shall-Be-Destroyed super crisis movie with the entire fate of the (insert whatever here - The Federation - The Klingons - The Vulcans entire homeworld planets, repeatedly) at stake. From giant space whales just flying into earth space, to Veger, to . . . And here we are in WoW with the same schlock going on.
