What's the worst WoW expansion?

While opinions vary, Shadowlands (2020) and Warlords of Draenor (WoD) (2014) are generally considered the worst World of Warcraft expansions due to disjointed themes, frustrating borrowed power systems (like Covenants in Shadowlands) or severe content droughts (WoD), and disliked mandatory features like Torghast (Shadowlands) or the Garrison (WoD) that many felt detracted from the core game. Cataclysm (2010) is also often cited for its overly sweeping changes to old Azeroth.
