The company's creativeness clearly suffers when they attempt to write or include anything for this faction. Why include anything for them at all if the only faction listened to is Horde?
Just replace the non existant players with dummies. Not even NPCs. Should be tons of fun! No more pesky leader boards between factions, no more needing to balance out racials. Should be fun until people realize they joined the winning side to obviously win over something, but when nothing is there, well. There it is. No need to even attempt giving the losing side some sort of cool unique edge to bolster player numbers. Nah! Just another horse or three ought to patch things up. Allied races that they want? Pft. Competetive racials for PvE aka dungeon / raiding content? HUMMIES GOTS THEM OP REP RACIALS! WAAUUUUGHHH!!! SMAHHSH HUMMIES! PUNY BLUES! REEEEE!! kek.
The developers and Hordies clearly hate the Alliance and those who choose to align themselves to the old blue side, really bringing in that whole us vs them mentality, great job on that at least blizz, right? Gotta say though the Battle For Azeroth was already lost before it even began.
Better dead than Red.
Storywise, Alliance would be much better off if it wasn't based on humans, it is hard to write an interesting story with the theme they have going.
As far as racials go, the allied races for alliance have better racials than horde's, and it is likely to continue that trend, they also did some nerfs to the troll and blood elf racials.

It would be a challenge for them to write an interesting story with that goody two shoes theme they have going on with the humans. Luckily for us they have several factions to choose from to spice things up. That and the developers are loaded in fat stacks of cash and could choose to do so if they really wanted.
The only good allied alliance racials that're genuinely good, would be Dark Iron Dwarves. Velves are only beneficial if you roll a caster.
Take a look at the new Zandalari troll class options plus their racials. Then look at the Kul'tirans.
It's bad. The stun will probably work just like High Mountain Tauren's except instead of stunning in a line you knock back an enemy and they land a few feet away.
When they thought that a new race was "fat humans" it was clear they just didn't care. Now they will literally give us trash gnomes.
Pathetic.
Considering the best stories in the franchise have been with humans, this is just plainly untrue.
Most fantasy settings also use just a theme like warcraft humans, fantasy that has been popular for decades.
So this statement makes no sense.

Inb4 Manabomb on Stormwind (or attempt there-of.)

Use divine shield. It's BoP but better.
I love how Horde fans complain about no Zandalari Paladins for, like, 30 mins? And then suddenly Zandalari can play as Paladins now. GJ, Blizzard.

They had been !@#$%ing about being Paladins since they were first announced back before BFA.
Just delete Alliance
I have no doubt they would if they could.
Their original class list had no Paladin in it.11/02/2018 08:49 PMPosted by Bourbonboxer11/02/2018 08:48 PMPosted by CellekolnirI love how Horde fans complain about no Zandalari Paladins for, like, 30 mins? And then suddenly Zandalari can play as Paladins now. GJ, Blizzard.

To be fair, the same thing happened with Kul Tiran mages.
Edit: Jk I was wrong
We get to play as a Mage on KTs now?11/02/2018 08:58 PMPosted by Callofdooty11/02/2018 08:48 PMPosted by CellekolnirI love how Horde fans complain about no Zandalari Paladins for, like, 30 mins? And then suddenly Zandalari can play as Paladins now. GJ, Blizzard.

No one wants to go to war for some whiny golden child perfectly rendered with symmetrical facial features like Brad Pitt. Anduin is corny and not cool.

I am guessing swapped with Warlocks to give Horde another Paladin class instead of Warlocks.
I'll never go red, so "the horde is waiting for you" does work for me, but if things keep going this way.... I'm out!
just blame the writers for putting logic out the window.

Sorry, was wrong. I was looking at this
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/22646758/world-of-warcraft-what-s-next-panel-recap
it previously listed kul tirans as receiving mages as a playable class. It looks like this source was wrong and they updated it. There's even a paladin named Jim commenting that there was a discrepancy.
Honestly no Kul tiran mages wtf really
Factions don't make sense anymore. Just remove them and only have races.

"As far as racials go, the allied races for alliance have better racials than horde's, "
Just f**g stop dude, PLEASE! You people will literally say ANYTHING. Orc has THE BEST racials for raiding and PVP. Tauren have the best for PVE tanking.
