Well, they really should be salty right now if they want to be consistent.
Blood Elves are in fact on Alliance right now. Rather than give us high elves who never rebranded themselves blood, we got blood elf traitors.
Itâs amusing that void elves existence completely undermines most of the arguments against high elves. Itâs ironic that void elves have undermined the implementation of high elves by usurping their place as the potential playable ânormalâ elf.

One thing is for certain. Blizzard has written themselves into a corner they cannot escape.

The Gordian Knot was supposedly unsolvable, then Alexander the Great cut it with his sword.
Thereâs a way out, they just have to be willing to cut something.

Sheâs only shown up once this expansion. Lets just pump the brakes on that first part of âshowing up all the timeâ.

My headâs still spinning from how quick all the talk about how the end of the War Campaign was going to star Alleria and Veryssr went silent.

Ah yes!
PLAYABLE ALLIANCE HIGH ELVES.
Everyone gets something and no more of this forced âwell you seeâŚten thousand years ago, while you werenât lookingâŚââ. Thatâs not lore, thatâs just lazy.
Skäl!

Theyâre all made up.
Well except humans.
tbh as much as I want black dragons to join the alliance as a playable race because holy hell that would be some irony seeing how they started in warcraft history I think playable dragons will be in the form of a dragonsworn hero class down the line.
Your mortal form would be the race you choose. To justify all the specs my prediction is that wrathion solves the plight of the dragonflights that has been going on since the end of cata. The cost however is that new dragons are no longer born as part of individual flights because the way forward is that all new dragons born are a new breed of uncorrupted chromatic dragons. They can look like any of the 5 dragonflights or they can look like combinations of them all. Depends on what the player chooses for their character.

You, the rest of the Horde AND no few Alliance!
Conjecture is ok, as long as we all remember thatâs what it is; conjecture.
Even my great ideas are based on what I want: all according to lore, of course!
Skäl.

Hey, guys, can I ask for a small favor?
I want to update my thread on Sylvanasâ endgame, patch 8.3 and the end of BfA, but the forum doesnât allow me because I was the last to post there.
Can someone reply to the thread so I can update it? It also features my theory on what Blizzard is planning for the high elves.
aggressive
ADJECTIVE
- Behaving or done in a determined and forceful way.
It had nothing to do with tone.
You are, or were at the time, posting and responding to a half-dozen people at once â which makes the use of the word aggressive appropriate, and unrelated to the content of your posts completely (and, by extension, unrelated to any tone).
Iâm genuinely confused by this understanding of things.
It isnât an abandonment of their history, if a groups modern circumstances necessitate they behave in a way that is inconsistent with how their ancestors might have â if adapting to circumstance was tantamount to abandoning history, virtually every playable race in World of Warcraft has done so by this point.
- Do any of us believe Anasterian Sunstrider wouldâve tolerated Quelâthalas adjoining itself to the Horde?
- Do any of us believe Dagran Thaurissan wouldâve tolerated Shadowforge attaching itself to the Alliance?
Of course not, these groups changed, and adapted â and their history, both the good and bad, inform their decision-making moving into their future.
This is what many people want for playable High Elves, myself included, and it doesnât at all require them to remain dainty or fabulous.
To be fair, this isnât exactly an issue of abrupt narrative advancements being inherently problematic â because there arenât a lot of people who donât like Void Elves specifically because theyâre Void Elves.
The issue was that instead of utilizing a readily available group of Thalassians, and those most likely to throw their lives down for Alleria Windrunner in the first place, they contrived up an entirely new group to then turn them into Void Elves.

I donât support the use of the Human Rig. They are Elves, not Humans. And personally i donât like the Human rig, i think the males are too bulky for casting classes and the females have bad animations.
If it is really mandatory that we are not allowed to have more than one race with the Thalassian rig in the Alliance i can tolerate a modified Night Elf rig, at least itâs a Elf model.

Yeah because blizzard has made belfs SUCH AN INTEGRAL PART of Horde lore.
/sarc off.
All blizzard did was give the Horde a pretty race so they wouldnât go on being roflstomped in BGS and other pvps.
Aside from that, they have had NOTHING to do except stand around and look pretty.
For eleven years LorâThemar has been Sylvanasâ lapdog and nothing more.
Lorewise, theyâre already on the discount shelf.
