I don’t think the racials are what make horde win, i think the racials encourage more pvp minded players to play on one faction, which makes the horde win, other causes are alliance not trying (because they lose so often, they don’t try, so they lose more -> repeat). Map imbalances don’t help, both AB & AV are horde favoured. Then because of all these issues, the vast majority of alliance rankers do not play pugs (or av at all) which makes the alliance even more terrible

Then the final nail in the coffin: the alliance don’t care to try their hardest, because they’ll be put in another game immediately anyway, losing as horde has much bigger consequences.

Outside of AV, Alliance doesn’t lose more often in PvP.

Either you havent done a lot of pvp or you are trolling. Horde wins on average 70% ofthe time regardless of the bg

My data here is only a few weeks old.

WSG
Alliance Wins 2
Horde 17

AB
Alliance 4
Horde 16

AV
Alliance 0
Horde 32

It’s queue times. Alliance gives up very, very easily.

You gotta dig deeper than that. Why is there longer queue times? Cause most ppl who are into pvp roll horde and there isnt a lot of alli players wanting to queue. Why ? because serious pvpers by default with roll horde because of the racials.

Serious pvpers choose horde cause of their racials, leaving alliance with crap racials and a player base that doesnt take pvp as serious.

Yeah, I’m not arguing that racials are a part of why more serious pvpers rolled horde. The queue is for sure a big one on giving up though because as a horde there is no way I want to sit in a 30 min queue to just give up, especially against another pug.

I ranked on my horde and I love playing horde but now I’m playing on an ally to see how it is. I need the gear, and all engi toys etc to be useful for a premade so I haven’t tried to get into one yet. So far running with pugs has been pretty bad. They give up fast. One guy right before maintenance was spamming to let them 5 cap even though we had 13 mins left and plenty of time. He was obsessed with losing his mark, but he decided to queue 15 mins before reset. It was ridiculous.

Where you will win against pugs and still lose a majority of the time against other premades.

The trend continues either way

I got melted by a Shadowmelded shadow priest in WSG who opened up with Psychic Scream right from Stealth… most beautiful use of Shadowmeld I ever saw.

Yeah, imagine having better group PvP racials and losing all the time.
