Don’t hate.

I must be one of the few people in the world that’s actually a fan of Varian Wrynn. The Alliance finally gets a leader that’s more than willing to weed out the Horde if it means a peaceful future, and rightly so, following the razing of Stormwind. Granted, that whole thing with the scourge is important, but a demonic horde ripped your life to shreds, why wouldn’t you want to take revenge on the savages? I’ll be the first to admit that the comic started with promise and then promptly nosedived, leaving brain damage in it’s wake. Most people I know hate the guy, likely because of his warmongering attitude, and that’s a fair point. But I see in a much better light.

The Alliance was a coalition that had the large problem of factionalism. You had humans and dwarves on side, draenei and elves on the other, without a true sense of coerciveness. We finally get Varian back, which give the Alliance a much needed supreme commander, but we also get a leading force that isn’t going to put up with the Horde’s shit. He also has Heroic Leap, so you fucking know he’s for real. So, I’m all in favour of the character, even if that’s a minority opinion.

Don’t hate.
