Top Ten Warcraft Characters

I have spent a lot of time in the Warcraft universe.  From Warcraft 1 to all my years playing World of Warcraft, there have been many memorable characters.  With WoW Classic on the horizon, I decided to put together my list of my favorite characters.  Now I play Alliance so this list is going to skew more towards those characters with some exceptions.  Also, there might be some spoilers story wise ahead so you have been warned.
​
10.  Anduin Lothar

I don’t remember much about Lothar except this one thing.  I remember playing Warcraft 2 and I remember the mission where you just watch Lothar die.  Here we have a hero of the Alliance who just gets butchered in an ambush. Lothar makes my list just for me remembering that event so many years later.
9. Wrathion

I like Wrathion if for nothing else, his demeanor.  We saw a lot of him during pandaria and every interaction with him was fun.  I hope to see more of him in the future.
8.  Tirion Fordring

Tirion has an interesting backstory from where you first meet him in Eastern Plaguelands, through your time with him in Icecrown fighting the Lich King and until his end during Legion.  Tirion was a great champion of the light and both the Horde and Alliance can respect him.
7.  Chromie

Chromie, the most annoying gnome ever.  The dragon aspect of time, she pops up from time to time when something is going on.  There is even a little event during legion that involves her. While it sounds like I don’t like her, I use her often in Heroes Of The Storm.

6.  Alexstrasza

Alexstrasza is one  the dragon aspects and a recurring character in Warcraft.  While I did not know much about this character before I played World Of Warcraft, between the wrath of the Lich King and cataclysm, you see a lot of this character.  She is my main healer in Heroes Of The Storm.
5.  Alleria Windrunner
​
Alleria is a character that I knew about form Warcraft lore and that was it.  It wasn’t until Legion that I saw this character and interacted with her. This character was one of the main reasons I went and created a void elf.
4.  Genn Greymane

Genn is the definition of a war hawk.  From his inclusion in Cataclysm, Genn has been someone who wants to destroy the Forsaken.  As time has gone on he has become a good leader within the alliance and has softened his tone.  Just a little, he still would wipe out the Forsaken in an instant.
3.  Valeera Sanguinar

Valeera is one of those characters that I was familiar with but did not know much about until I started playing Heroes Of The Storm.  Once I started playing that game I looked into her backstory and I found an interesting character. I use her quite often in Heroes of the Storm.
2. Sylvannas Windrunner

Sylvannas is one of the few reasons I wanted to play horde.  This is an interesting character from start to finish. After seeing what she did right before Battle For Azeroth, part of me wanted to join her  it since I’m an Alliance player I just wanted to attack her. She was my main in Heroes of the Astor’s before Varian came out.
1.  Varian Wrynn

Varian is hands down my favorite character.  Whether it was his leadership ability commanding the alliance or his ability as a fighter, he is the definition of a leader.  Even though he died at the opening of Legion, I have to admit he went out in style. He is my main character in Heroes Of The Storm..
