Let’s talk about It : Blood Elf and Draenei have the weaker race than all other Races, where in Pve Doesn’t matter much about the racial, in PvP It Is important. Where Undead have an bigger advantage in the performance about PvP , it’s still worth to go Orc or even Troll for their racials as example. Also on the PvP Alliance it’s the same , where the Draenei have still the weaker racial.
What i’m asking it’s : there’s a way for to get some balancing in these Races? I strongly think that this situation where exists an Better race than another It ruin the experience of wow,exspeccialy in TBC where the Blood Elf and Draenei are the new race of the exspansion.

Yeah I’ll agree with you on dreanei racial it’s pretty bad blood elf however is good for both PvP and PvE it’s not bis like undead or orc but definitely not bad.
Biggest bloodelf class is the paladin start with Ret paladins in PvP they are missing an interupt and the silence aoe silence fits perfectly when going for the kill the best thing is it does not share Dr with other silences, pally tanks also love the racial for dungeons because they can pull everything then interupt the high damage spell casts in one click it was also good make the mobs really tight for cleave.
Draenei racial (not Heroic prescense as that is awesome) but Gift of the Naru would have been usuable if it was off the GCD and instant cast. But as it is 1.5s castime and on the GCD it is just terrible.

Blood Elf is only good for paladin, for all the other class there’s no reason for to go Blood Elf. So the Major part of Horde side It s Undead, Orc and Troll (Also not many people choice tauren too)
It isn’t only an interrupt, it gives resources aswell. 2 sec aoe silence pluss 10-15% resource. Pretty descent no matter what class you have
And who would not want an extra interrupt?

The 2sec silence It Doesn’t matter much since It s only 2 sec , but the mana tap thing it’s Just bad i think

I used to play BE rogue back then and its very good against all casters and healers to have third interrupt with small energy bump.
Everyone that have played PvP as Blood Elf in Rogue example , they Says that the silence thing don’t have much impact for the win the match (i have not tried myself still )

So if they have a 5 sec cast, and a 2 sec interrupt that is effectively a 7sec interruption on multiple mobs.
You have use of it in almost every dungeon
Shade of Aran, alot of trash in karazhan
Any fight you need a little more reasources
If the meta is so important, why do you roll be?
Lets say you are in arena against healer. He is 50%, then you kick his heal, he is 30% now trying to heal again, you torrent him(also refreshing few energy), now he is 15% and moves away a little bit casting his third attempt and you deadly throw him with third interrupt in row. Instead of being just low he is dead now.
I don’t care to be meta, but i care about to have same possibility to win in PvP even in High Ranks (if i was Blood Elf in Alliance against Horde it Would be much harder to get High Ranks i Guess? Still i don’t like this thing)
Most likely you won’t play at a level where racials matters. Blood elves are probably the best race to be Vs casters, because of the silence and magic resist so you are in a good position when the meta slows down.
What makes be not S tier is because of the popularity of rogues and warriors where the stun resist is really strong. But then again you are the best Vs mages/locks
Undead might be better Vs locks
Did you just call an aoe silence a bad racial ?

Please note that both Draenai and BE racials were later buffed to be instant casts.

-
Paladin. PvE Excellent AoE tanking AoE silence. Can work for Ret and even Holy if he is “feadtweaving” with seals and judges, that top notch holy should.
-
Rogue. Same as Ret Paladin, even better for pressing on casters in PvP.
-
Hunter, not that much of a deal and pale compared to Orc in any aspect and Trolls in PvE, but in PvP is still a good defencive tool against mages who try to jump into hunter’s range dead zone. None of Alliance racials of hunters can compare with that.
-
Mages good tool for shatter combo playstyle. Agrresive engages onto PvE packs and into enemy backline. Weaker than OP Forsaken and Humans in PvP for sure just slightly weaker in PvP than Gnomes and worse than Trolls in PvE.
-
Warlock. Athough very strong class in TBC by itself in any aspect of the game, the bonuses may be described the same as for mage, for appropriate classes.
-
Priest not as good and might be weakest Priest just above NE if Holy/disc.
Wrong. Troll is worthless in pvp. It is only good for trolling.
As mage and as Priest It have some utility Faster cast speed
You know, that makes sense. Maybe some classes can use troll and not be useless.
