>sharing a powerset with touya
incredibly tragic

Illidan, he was cucked by his own brother, told he had to save Azeroth by any means, then got shat on when those means meant becoming a literal demon.

Arthas didn't even try any alternatives for protecting his homeland, and atop that, he didn't even spend 5 seconds with Uther on why Stratholme was utterly fucked

>orcs dindunuffin (like the zerg, thanks metzen)
>pandas are gay
>arthas is literally Kerrigan (metzen only knows 1 story)

thanks metzen.

>>381004448
he did nothing wrong.

>>381004659
Metzen has been gone from Blizzard for like 2 years now. Pick a different scapegoat.

>>381005056
>he did nothing
true

>>381004098
it would be illidan
>did everything he could to save his people
>only thing that drives him is his love for Tyrande
>Willing to sacrifice for the greater good

Arthas
>Throws a tempter tantrum on Uther and plays the prince card
>Gets baited hard by demons
>MindCucked by and orc shaman
>Daddy is it over?

I did like his story but Arthas was used the entire time. illidan on the other hand knew what had to be done, even played the double agent he knew that he would be hated and targeted but he still did what had to be done.

None of them. Garrosh Hellscream was the ruest tragic hero

Literally all he did he did for the horde, and everyone turned their backs on him

Pic related.

But between those two? Illidan by far. He sacrificed himself for the greater good and got shat on for it.

Arthas wasn't a tragic hero.

he was simply a villain

>>381004098
Illidan is tragic because he did everything right and still got shat on by Tyrande and Malfy, and then went "Fuck it"

Arthas is the "i did what i had too" hero but he becomes a villain once his obession takes over

>>381005079
Everything he talked about was metzens doing, though.

>Fuck alliance, nuke Theramore, I can't wait to be a useless piece of shit and get corrupted all day

>>381004098
still pretty tragic they rushed this cinematic

Illidan used the only options that had the power to stop Burning Legion and save Azeroth from becoming second Argus, and despite all the persecutions he again and again continued to try and keep Azeroth save. Arthas did it once but then took Frostmorne and turned completely evil.

>>381010337
Yeah, Apparently there was so much more to it. Illidan apparently slaps around Arthas like a little bitch till Frostmourne saves his ass.

That would have been cool. Not because I like Illidan, but because I don't really like Arthas

>>381004448
Haven't you heard? Wow brought him back as a hero, alongside golden dreadlords purified by the light. Thanks blizz

>>381010337
still looks pretty good for its time.
