So there is one PVP realm in NA. I want to play Horde. That faction is unavailable on Nightslayer due to population imbalance. I can’t even make a character. Is this gg?
I had thought maybe the AU realm was LA datacenter and tried that, but I get like 178ms so that rules that out.
better pvp racials
better flightpaths and ease of access to zones
don’t have to suffer playing with paladins
there’s a lot to like about Horde honestly
Horde are like 5-10% better than Alliance for PvP in Classic WoW.
This might not seem like much, but things have a cascading effect. For 20 years, the sweatiest classic pvpers have played horde. Its become cultural at this point. All of the best PvPers are playing Horde, so their hanger ons and friends follow them. The imbalance grows.
Truthfully, there’s nothing really wrong with Alliance in Classic WoW. But time and inertia have made Horde the preeminent faction for all “serious” pvpers.
EDIT: Follow that up with events like Phase 2 of 2019 and Horde’s domination of BGs in every Phase of SoD and the divide has only expanded.
Era still has Garrosh! Bonus points there. No council, we cna even pretend horde leaders aren’t anduin simps. we find that out later but for now we are good.
