So Sylvanas has been built up as a villain since pretty much forever and she started becoming just a straight-out villain after Cataclysm and ultimately the Battle for Azeroth.

However as she is now talking about freeing the Jailer and getting our free will back etc, what will happen with Sylvanas? We know that she signed the pact with the Jailer in order to avoid her fate in the Maw and that all she had done was in order to fight Bolvar and break the machine of death?

Is Sylvanas redemption incoming in Shadowlands and most importantly should that even happen in the first place?

  1. Just let her die. Such an annoying character. If she just remained alive she would have been fine. After death, up to wrath she was meh. Got progressively and exponentially worse from there. Time for a change. Let is kill her, and then give the undead a proper faction boss. This banshee is past her sell by date.

  2. She is undead. Aren’t they lore wise less empathic (probably dont even have empathy) and less emotional? Then isnt she saving hundreds if not thousands of innocent soul along with her?

  3. Sylvanas is such a complicated character (for now at least), and I like that a lot. The idea of Sylvanas aiming to break the miserable grand-design mechanism would make her a truly grey-moral character, and I find that perspective much more interesting than having another boring "classical" villain, who just went crazy in the thirst for power or anger.

  4. Before watching… i HONESTLY fucking hope not, it'd be a cop-out because she's popular… she has done shit WAY worse then Garrosh, and she really should not be given another chance.

    Let the villain BE THE VILLAIN… stop trying to make us feel bad for beating a "Poor, corrupted/Misunderstood hero"…

  5. So, once again we mortal maggots are entering the realms beyond the time to beat the shit out of godly beings of eternity. And I thought dragon ball went too far.

  6. NO! NO! NO!

    I'm TIRED of redemption stories. I want some villains to STAY villains. Enough. Sylvanas must fall. Aliiance, Horde I don't care who does it. Take her damn head off and be DONE with it.

  7. She has been my fav character since I played Warcraft 3 as a child and I'd love if she was redemeed, but idk, it would be weird. I don't believe that she's 100% evil but she's not 100% good. She's selfish. She did care for the forsaken, true, BUT, as she said, "they stubbornly clinged to life". Let's hope that her character ends with a good arc, and not some random cheesy crap.

  8. It is likely that Sylvanas will find a way to enter the plane of Reality and find its ruler. There, she could peacefully criticize the unjust way of how reality will work and will convince that plane's ruler to help change things to help benefit both cosmic forces and mortals for the better. However, the plane of Shadow needs to be defeated first.

  9. There is a point where you go too far. When you enjoy your evil plotting, it stops being for the greater good. Every bad guy thinks they are doing it for the right and just reason. Syl enjoys making others suffer and like any one dimensional villain she deserver to be put down in the dirt.

    If there was a scrape of morally grayness i'd agree. The only thing gray about her is her skin though.

  10. Stop acting hurt, believe in the dark lady💕 You seem to don’t understand mortals are just pawns in the games of the cosmic forces who manipulate us in the hope that they can rule over all of the universe

  11. I really hope they don't just turn Sylvannas into another Garrosh. With the events from bfa it looks like she is a villain. I have to agree with you about her saving us from the jailer or whatever is going to happen in the shadowlands. I'm an undead player and have been since the very first day wow came out in 2004. So I am a huge fan of Sylvannas. I don't care what she has done in bfa. I still say she deserves a redemption of some kind.

  12. Sylvanas getting a redemption would SERIOUSLY piss off a lot of people. They have been writing her with secrets, plots, and hidden agendas for so long…all of which have been purely selfish in nature, that to suddenly give her a redemption by suddenly saying she was playing the long game would be a move of epic stupidity. She's been the one constant "evil" from day one.

    The one character that might possibly deserve to be redeemed in all of this would be Arthas as he was merely a puppet for the entirety of his time as Lich King. Yes….he wasted Strat, and yes…that WAS bad. But one deed committed in desperation to save the kingdom compared to years of deeds done without any control over what you were doing…yeah. I predict Arthas will be pulled out of the Maw and given a redemption.

  13. I don't see this as a redemption arc because she can never truly be redeemed. It's more fleshing out a character, showing the reasons she committed the horrors that she committed and showing her thought process. That's what good villains writing is. Of course the occasional just evil psychopath is awesome and scary as hell but the lines of good and evil are often muddied by the people as they do things. A lot don't specifically do things to be cruel. It doesn't mean they aren't cruel but it's worth including.

  14. You can be a bad person yet work toward a truly noble and true goal… For example Lelouch vi Britania…

    When you look at his actions the guy is a massive warcriminal but his objective was always world peace and he was willing to sacrifice anything to that goal even his humanity… and in the end he succeeded…

  15. Is no need for redemption >.> she’s always been working for the living and her people but the tin men marching over petty small things refused to realize that the gods them selfs are using there souls to power there well power and life force. The books explain everything yet so many ignore the lore and cannon >.>

  16. Sylvanas cannot be redeem even if she help us after what she did on teldrassil its cold blood massacre of civilians in a race that is very slow to reproduce except if she is a mindless undead which she is not.

  17. From that point of view, Sylva helped all people she killed, because now they don't have opportunity to cause any evil, but are victims, so they won't end up in any of the bad realms

  18. if she doesn't "die" (whatever that'll mean in shadowlands) i think she may turn out to be trying to take over the jailor's position or at least maybe ascend to the death pantheon. not in full on redemption arc, but sort of as a "she's less evil than the jailor" sort of way.

  19. I don't think sylvanis will be redeemed. But I do think there might be a good version of sylvanis. Let me explain. So as we know from afterlives uther. When someone is killed with frostmourne. There soul splits in two. One goes inside of frostmourne. The other goes to the shadowlands. The piece of Sylvanis in frostmourne is the Sylvanis we know. The one that was tortured. However that means there is an untainted Sylvanis in the shadowlands. A good Sylvanis who is still a high elf ranger at heart. Which means. There could be a good version of Sylvanis who could help the champions take down her dark counterpart. But that's just my theory. But there is evidence behind it. Like uthers story.

  20. I'd hope for the Windrunner sisters' stories to combine, or at least affect one another in some way. That would be way more interesting than recycling Arthas and him meeting Sylvanas again.
