These racials can be critical in 1v1 or 2v2, but horde racials are not the reason why alliance in AV keeps repeating the same failing tactics, or why people start spamming ‘let them win’ or just go afk after the first few minutes of the game is not going as expected.
This behavior is more about majority of alliance players are not interested pvp in general and the minority eventually rerolls horde.
Actually it doesn’t really matter why the factions got unbalanced since it cannot be reversed.
This is bad game design, because dividing the playerbase into only two factions always leads to unbalance and unbalance is self-accelerating, so at the end it destroys pvp: the loser faction just gives up, the winning faction have nobody to fight against.
Horde racials r the reason why most pvp oriented people went horde, you can not deny that.
That leads alliance being full of pve crying “let em win” kids.
It’s a boxing class that atracts boxers, not a math class.
And when these kids have to fight behind a building, first one wins of obvious reasons. Surely you can meet boxers in a math class, but their percentage is rare.
Do you often visit math class and yell how crap these people are at boxing ?
Every horde post if full of high epeen “woak we cool and you are shyte lele”.
Come reroll alliance and try it yourself, you can’t do crap when the majority is pve dwellers who want rep only.
it’s not that alliance is bad…
it’s “good alliance players always change to horde” in pve & pvp
i remember many players that aimed for gladiator changed from alliance to horde in earlier expansions, cus of Horde racial, and i remember many top guilds changed to horde side! believing that it’s easier to find good players in horde side than in alliance side" so when everyone kept on believing that horde is better? in past ~10years…Eventually Every good player left the alliance side and joined the horde.
I never forgot my 1st friend i met in wow, i told him “i played undead because i loved sylvanas in Warcraft3 campaign, so why did you play undead?” he said “I started as a human mage then deleted it to reroll horde because Horde is better” that was early vanilla where wow progress didn’t exist, and not any kind of online information to tell who’s better than who! it’s like Everyone who joined alliance left that side because they knew that casuals is interested about fancy looks and will never play a bad looking character.
Quite true, but will be interesting to see how this goes if/when wotlk ‘classic’ releases in far future. Will alliance finally reign supreme, or still remain suckage despite the new oh so op human racial.
Can you link a post like that was made by a lvl60 alliance player? Because i never seen qq post from players thats in the majority. I saw a lot from shazz and flamelash and both were 30-70 horde server. Infact i saw loads of horde crying from zt which you can probably still find in the zt forum.
Not my problem fortunately… unfortunately with instant queues comes with 99% lose chance @ av. Might just focus on pve in classic, leave bg’s for retail, it’s less of an sh*tshow there if you can believe it.
