Yeah, the 2014 sorcerer was both bad and bland. The dragonblood and wild sorcerer subclasses are both bland with no clear vision of the class other than "a caster who isn't a member of another casting class" (which I'll take over the aggressively bad "great great grandma made the beast with two backs with something she shouldn't" and some families are Just Better of the Pathfinder sorcerer). But it took Xanathar's to return the sorcerer from its bland 3.X "we dunno - maybe you've the blood of dragons?" to the 4e fluff of "this world is magical and some people get magic from weird things; here are some of them" and Tasha's to make subclasses that were mechanically decent.Well my remark was somewhat tongue in cheek but it is remarkable that we have some on topic discussion arising from it.
I will admit to being someone that was unimpressed with the 2014 Sorcerer but it certainly seems improved. I also agree that a sorcerer gish is thematic.
Which is another reason I want Wild demoted from the PHB.
