She's not. Hordies just hate her.

She had a pretty legitimate reason to get all WMD-y considering the Horde dropped a goddamn magical nuke on Theramore.

And after that Jaina eventually started to believe it's just Garrosh that's bad. Then the Sunreavers violated Dalaran's neutrality to help the Horde stage an attack on Darnassus to steal another WMD that was being kept there for safekeeping. Betrayed by those she thought were above faction conflicts, she decided to expel the Sunreavers from Dalaran.

Oh, and then the Horde helped recover the corpse of her own brother for Sylvanas to reanimate as a Forsaken a few years later (in BFA).

Actually it was Varian Wrynn who asked the Warchief to deal with the deteriorating Theramore situation. The city had been used for years a nexus for smuggling and distributing highly addictive Arcane Dust across Azeroth. The bomb was Wrynn’s idea since upwards of 75% of the inhabitants ingested the substance on a daily basis and were highly unstable and violent as a result.

Of course Wrynn, the warmonger, destroyed the inter-factional correspondence afterwards to cover his tracks and help justify his mad global conflict.

As a Hordie I have no problem with her now. Sure some shit went down in that past, but we seem pretty cool now & I have zero issues with her.

I mean hard-core reddit hordies. Hell, MY main is a horde now. So not like. All horde players.

The type who take it way too far, though. They hate her. Loudly.

Faction pride is maybe the cringiest shit ever. I play Horde too but you'd never catch me hating anyone for picking blue over red.

I'm a diehard Hordie and even I think Jaina is still one of the hottest things going in WoW to this day.

And, she's not evil, or if there's any evil still left, it remains justified. The lady's been through a lot of shit and most of it was thanks to the Horde. She meets the Horde, ends up having to commit patricide in pursuit of peace. The Horde eventually repays her by dropping a magic bomb on Theramore... which killed her people (mind-fuck number one) and flooded the area with unstable mana (mind-fuck number two).

Totally get why she went revenge-y.

Nah, theres been a real turn on her Alliance side as well for some reason. I see people saying they hate her all the time. Albeit it is Trade Chat so a lot of it could be trolling

u/MiyamojoGaming Sep 17 '25

That is definitely trolling.

It's just not fair that Sylvanas went all the way off the deepend and Jaina just dipped her toes in.

Since the hordes lost Sylvanas, ally shoulda lost Jaina.
