People chose scott because they were douche and so was he. Peter and Cora loved derek as an alpha. In season 2 and 3 he did everything he could to help his pack and fought to protect them. He let Boyd and cora claw him instead of killing them where some other alpha would gave killed the betas. Derek was a good alpha but at the wrong timing. He did not have stiles,Allison,deaton and Lydia to guide him. He just had a manipulative uncle who was hell bent on taking revenge on him. Derek was a good alpha but had a bad fate. " Derek was a good alpha."

In what world was early Derek a good Alpha......?

"He was strong,good looking,tall,well built unlike scott."

Ah, NOW I see what's going on here.

"People chose scott because they were douche and so was he. Peter and Cora loved derek as an alpha."

Ok, so Allison, Stiles, Lydia, Isaac,Deaton they all chose Scott because they were, how did you oh so eloquently put it, "douche"? And Peter and Cora loved Derek as an Alpha? Peter went to Derek because he was the only one he could manipulate into keeping him around (along with his weirdly distorted sense of family loyalty), in fact, part of his speech to convince Derek to let him join his pack was to list all his failures as an Alpha. And Cora literally said, and I quote,"I came back for this? I can't believe I got myself thrown in a vault, for three months, for you!".
