I dont know why blizzard keeps saying that every server is a perfect 50/50 split between both horde and alliance.
If you actually play the game its painfully obvious that horde has the upper hand in every zone.
Im on Living Flame EU and I cant recall walking into BRM and not get slaughterd by a zerg of hordes.
Every flight path, every dungeon entrance is always littered with hordes and if you are alliance you have to corpse walk your way into dungeons most of the time.
Even if you look on Ironforge.pro the stats show that the faction balance tilts 5-10% towards horde on most servers, so blizzard please stop lying about the 50/50 split.
When you already made horde stronger in every aspect of the game, atleast try to keep the factions balanced by disabeling horde character creations.

Alliance are PVE players, horde mostly PVP players
there is a 50/50, but Alliance players just dont play for open world PVP

Funny fact, if you check ironforge statistics with logs its 55/45 horde dominated, but if check by api (all characters include not raiding) thats 51/49 (a bit alliance dominated), do you know why? 
Because of bots, alliance have more bots and blizzard count them in their âstatisticsâ

livingflame was alliance dominant phase 1-2 then they refused to nerf shamans so everyone jumped ship and went horde
You can thanks shamans and horde racials for that. Everyone serious about PvP IS rolling horde for hardiness

Now you will have all elem sham ( orc ) that will tell you that you are an ally noob who dont know how to play.
All this elem sham who make videos on YouTube where you can see thats they just push two buttons and put -80 % of enemi Life, all of this is normal for them âŠâŠ
I Forget about the heals that they have, the mobility with Wolf âŠâŠ
But all of this is normal.
Play a Warrior in sod and you will probably understznd the pain in pvp, an ally Warrior 
Reality hits hard doesnt it? Blizz said all pvp realms are 50 50, bunch of ppl realized problem is in them they cant use the faction balance excuse anymore, double down on shamans and orc racial (meanwhile playing class that doesnt have a stun/ still losing after landing a stun) while also losing battles vs taurens/trolls/undeads non shamans as well.
Classic losers having to grasp for anything to cope with reality

one point to be made about faction balance is that the bots are taking up a lot of âplayer slotsâ.
one side might have more bots than the other, and i hope blizzard takes that into account when they measure the faction balance numbers.
like, we got a ton of troll hunters with boar pets who are obvious bots, everywhere, doing their thing, shamelessly, all day every day.
those bots probably make up for about 20% of the total horde population on my server.
so if the same is not true on the alliance side, and they have, letâs say 5% of their faction being bots, that would make alliance the dominating faction while the numbers would show blizzard a clean 50/50.
Living Flame is SEAL TEAM SIX dominated.
Could it be everyone jumped ship playing cata and retail instead? Just a wild guess
Canât speak for other servers but on Lone Wolf EU BRM event is consistently alliance dominated.

Letâs see if the Kor Kron Enforcers contest that after the merge
the only reason cringe team six âdominatesâ world pvp (and this is a generous term to use) is because horde gets the honor they need in bgs whereas alliance canât win bgs (kekw) forcing them hang their collective heads in shame and gank people on flight path in EPL, Burning Steppes and Searing Gorge to rank up.
how lowly.
this is nothing short of a demonstration of hordeâs superior skill in actual pvp and can be measured by the fact that horde does not find the need to gank in wpvp to rank up.
more like racial advantages and map advantages, especially AV.
horde has been bug abusing pathing in vanns room every game, no wonder why you can just pull. should literally report anyone abusing that pathing in vanns room. its somuch easier to execute than running out of drek keep and jump those fences.
more like you describing the horde actions here TBH, but nobody tells you that to begin with because it is literally commonplace compared when horde gets FP camped.
horde and superior skill, more like horde getting carried by stun resist racial or WoTF and you know it.
Horde is more into ganking because their egos believe they are the best and superior to alliance, yet when a 34 human lock beats a 43 troll hunter you suddenly realize horde has more of the worse people than imagined. Look at all the losers in BRM, it is majority horde controlled unless its a midnight BRM.
You act as if alliance DONT do any of this. Alliance dont camp anything in the open, they are the nice guys who get harassed:O
You are either delusional, or lying.
Maybe its because those who like pvp chose horde, and those who enjoy pve go alliance?
How is this at all relevant to the discussion? This game is definitively not balanced around low-level pvp.
âsome guy beat a higher level guy, that means that faction SUCK!â
Again, acting as if alliance dont do this.
Get off your high horse, admit that both sides are equally gank happy, and move on.

not what i said, you are simply implying.
last night people were camping darkshire FP, it is somuch more commonplace for any alliance FP to be camped and bug abused with terrain than horde FPs.
is there even one FP that alliance can stand on terrain where guards dont act? i doubt it.
suprised blizzard is literally turning a blind eye towards that and racials/shaman.
its an example of howmuch horde cannot pvp so they either team or outlevel their target, its hilarious how people claim horde have skill in any PvP content.
again acting as if horde is not doing this at all. ive never said alliance didnât do this, it is just way worse as alliance as you see horde exploiting anything to be successful in pvp.
as horde i didnt even get as remotely ganked as on alliance, horde always has been more gank happy than you realize.
Manâs playing a 20 year old game that to this day has never been able to be balanced and is crying about balance in a new testing game version XD Bro
No idea.
So, if i come up with an example that shows alliance doing the same thing does that mean alliance also cannot pvp?
Because i can assure you, i have plenty of those. (15 mins ago even, as i was heading to BRD to smelt. 2 rogues and a hunter was camping the entrance, trapping/shadowmelding to gank. 2 60s and a 53 rogue.)
Ooh, i know horde is doing this. My point is that both factions are doing this, they are engaging in pvp⊠ON A PVP SERVER.
And alliance dont exploit?
I dont have any numbers on who gets ganked the most, but everyone is claiming that they have it worse than the others.
Maybe you do, maybe you dont.
But for the sake of the arguement, lets say horde is ganking alliance players more. How will you fix it? Coming to the forums just to âcryâ isnt a solution.
Maybe the ones who goes horde like pvp more, how will you fix that?
Forgot to adresse this, i dont think horde is more skillful in pvp. Specially in wow sod. Majority only attack those they know they can win (this goes for both factions)
You never see a rogue attack a feral tank for instance, cuz he knows he will lose.
Give equal racials just that, its easy to fix. You think players come into horde for another reason ?
