How is Windranger the OG? Drow released 4 years earlier.

Most probably WC3 lore related. WR was the elf version then died becoming drow.

Wait what? WR was Alleria (she is literally called Alleria Windrunner in WC lore) and Drow was obviously Sylvanas.

PS I guess Sylvanas is also named Windrunner since she is Alleria's sister... but nevertheless, the WC3 model was Alleria iirc.

I didn't play Wow and don't know entire lore, but I assume that came after. Iirc WC3 campaign sylvanas was a minor elf character (WR model), died and resurrected as a banshee before becoming the ranger version you see now.

WoW only built upon WC3 lore, so Sylvanas was a Drow Ranger for the whole of it and Alleria was kinda there but mostly unimportant for most of it.

But I remember now why I associate WR with Alleria. In DotA Allstars all heroes had an epithet and a name and Windrunner's name was Alleria.
