did they not Nerf the Zandalari Troll racials after loads of people race changed? Paid for the advantage; Instant NERF!!

They don’t really, look to the stories alliance get, the traits and so on and how those are handled.
They do nothing about horde dominating PVP and raiding, no big nerfs coming out to make them less OP.

Regarding PvP, even the Horde suffers. If you want to aim for really high rating, not picking an orc is basically handicapping yourself if you have the option to be an orc.
Racials should just be a fun cosmetic choice, or offer some fun conveniences like the vulpera’s extra heartstone to anywhere in the world. Just my two cents.
Right, the same formula over and over. Horde and alliance should be joined by now.
The only surprising thing about this is that it happened before it launched, unlike for example jaina where voodoo shuffle had to get nerfed a few weeks after the first kills happened.
Love that Horde gets to keep ridiculous racials that give an edge but Alliance has 1 and it gets nerfed 
So where were the horde nerfs for Goblin Racial for KJ Mythic? Belf Racial on Zul? Troll Racial being by far the best in-game?

Remove the faction barriers and we won’t have any more of these issues.

It’s horrible really, the developers bias to horde is clear in all areas of the game.
I wouldn’t put it past them to add a racial to orcs that does “Orcish Supremecy: One shot a raid boss once a day on any difficulty level.” And then leave it in game for over a year.

Clearly it’s more important to downgrade the human racial name and nerf dwarf racial after 1 guild faction changes than to actually fix faction balance.
Come on man, Will to Survive is so inferior to Every Man for Himself.

HONESTLY SPEAKING I wish they did not do this I wanted the Alliance to have an advantage so they could stop crying I play my race for looks not for midmaxing

Unless they would have sticked with this the entire xpac nothing would have changed. Like Экзорсус and every other Guild that has already transferred would have transferred back the moment the raid would have been cleared.
For M+ and raid alliance is already the better one. It is just that everyone is gathering up at 1 side. This KJ was 1 boss, many years ago, for 1 player in world first.
KJ was a freaking nightmare pre nerf however and the goblin racial made the boss significantly easier

Sure but for world first only that priest healer we do not call the name of was a goblin. We should also blame warlocks right? since one of the orbs in darkphase was 100% cheated by taking a gateway at the right time.
And i responded on a message. dont take my response out of context.
Ofc there were different approaches. The goblin racial was still very strong especially compared to all other racials in the game for this boss (who happened to be a final boss and also a living monster) and it caused alot of migration. Not to mention all the beeps that thought they totally need it while being world 1k or something
Key point is: No it wasnt horde bias but such a racial to boss “thing” should never exist. Regardless of faction. A racial shouldnt be able to completely negate a mechanic.
Im just adding additional information. Dont get all riled up.
Racials should be removed completely or turned into gimmicks like the dark iron’s more machine to travel between old expansions.
Completely negate? it is cheating 1 orb pushback. The next was the warlock gateway needed that the whole raid could use. Not just 1 player. And obviously there were also orb sequences. That racial did nothing for that.
Gimicks are fine. Or something so meaningless like the worgen darkflight.
Which is huge.
A class usable by both factions. Yes.
It still saved you from certain doom
Which is huge times 20.
This whole conversation is pointless. i never said rocket jump was not usefull. But we should also not exagerate it since a lot of classes can negate the thing too just out of the basekit.
I responded on the message that everything everywhere is horde OP. And then it is about a raidboss of 3 years ago, and 100% ignoring shadowmelt in M+, what also is huge times… 20.
Look im not the person that will scream Horde bias, but this one actually kinda makes me mad. I mean in the past we have had Horde racials wich were known to be a way to bypass boss mechanics long before the raids ever it made it to live, but as soon as an Alliance racial looks like an advantage it gets changed.
