Let’s be honest, if not elves horde would be extinct by now 50% playerbase in horde are elves.

Elves are perfect, so naturally they are popular on both Factions!

The reason for Blood Elves as a Horde race is because when expanding to an Asian market, in their culture most of them do not like the idea of playing a particular monstrous or un-noble race like the Horde consists of in vanilla, so in TBC they added the Blood Elves so they could have a “beautiful” race to expand to that demographic on the Horde side.”

I did quite a search for this however cannot find any citation other than here on the forums, or Reddit.

One of the main reasons Horde struggled so much in the early Vanilla years is because the Devs completed and polished the Alliance lands, cities and quests, and the Horde was unfinished.
I have never been able to find verified info regarding the Asian Market theory, other than amongst players who want Alliance HEs. If you can link it that would be great.

I remember when our Guild left EQ for WoW back in 2004; more than half went to the Horde. Most of the women players went Alliance, because we wanted to play Humans and Elves, as most of us had Mained Humans and Elves in EQ.

I think it’s perfect that we have Elves Horde and Alliance side, I agree with you, the more Elves, the better! I’d love to see Tolkien’s Elvish dream realised here in WoW. (As a United Elvish Faction.)
The Light-elves, (The Vanyar).
The Deep-elves, (The Noldor).
The Sea-elves, (The Teleri).
The Dark-elves, (The Avari, or the Moriquendi).
The Nandor.
The Eldar.
The Green Elves, (The Laiquendi).
The Wood Elves, (The Silvan).
The Grey Elves, (The Sindar).
The Half Elves.

Perfection!
