Blizz, make classic, but it has to be like retail!

Game is not balanced around strictly one activity.
Also, back then the game was still an RPG and things like lore or logical consistency within the game world influenced the design just as much as balance or convenience. And it makes sense that a big, tough race with a warring tradition is difficult to knock out.

For some classes it is.
Orc is the best race for melee in both pve and pvp.
Gnome is the best race for all casters in both pvp and pve.
Dwarf is the best race for priests in both pvp and pve.
Racials are very poorly balanced and extremely difficult to do so, they are a aged mechanic which adds nothing interesting, just adds layers of illusion of choice.

Unbalanced op things like the orc racial is what makes this game fun. It evokes emotions. Good and bad ones. I for example could rip my keyboard appart when a gnome uses escape artist on my roots, which has a 1min cooldown…
Still, it makes it even sweeter when i manage to kill these little pests anyway!
Inbalance is the spice of this game.
Improvise, adapt, overcome.
And get gud nap.
The goal with Classic is to be as close as possible to an authentic and historical recreation of the game how it was in 2006.

people actually play classic to pvp 
cant fathom how anyone would play such an unbalanced RNG Omega outdated game for a pvp experience.
oh well to each their own.
Because it’s an MMO. You’re supposed to be a god if you no life it and a noob if you don’t. It’s that simple.
you are a god if you roll thje right class, and a noob if you didnt.
thats vanilla.
WoW Classic is supposed to be something of a museum piece, a recreation of the original. No need to change this around, or anything really from the OG. I wouldn’t demand more solo endgame content (I hate raids) because that’s not what Classic is. I’ll suck it up and play as long as it interests me.
I don’t like posting cynically or appearing to be disrespectful… But this is just the way it is with Classic… People who want to play it will do so, warts and all.
because resisting a 1min cd 5s pala stun or a rouge opener definitly has 0 influence to the outcome of a duel, right?

The gnome racial is perfectly balanced by the dying animation and the sound they make. There is that.

Because this is the game that people cried for. If you don’t want Classic, then go play retail.

lmfao nice meme. people that asked for no changes got 1.12 people that asked for improvements (fixes) got 1.12
only people that wanted to pay for a layered version of what private servers offer got what they wanted.
Yet again you type yet another bs here. This game is not pve or pvp, and is definitely not about some mythical “class balance”. All this stuff ruined the game in later expansions. Please go back to your cs/cod/whatever fps sh!t where you belong, indulge everyone here.
the game is pve with optional pvp. go back to the lvl 19 bracket/fortnite if u dont want balance and need to have every single advantage, kid.

And why should it be changed? Just because some baby cries about it? It didnt get changed for years so why should it be changed in Classic? Where is the realistig reason for that?
Not really, I play classic because it is a better mmo where I actually care about my character, gold, reputation etc. Classic pvp can also be good fun and have a high skill cap (twinking not included). This is just reduced by stuff like the orc racial, a passive.
