No, it objectively isn’t. A ton of people roll horde just to be a blood elf because they like the way they look. This has nothing to do with the company that made this race. People just choose to pick this race over others.
And don’t even get me started on racials. Racials are not as one sided as the COMMUNITY made it out to be. This is not blizzards fault for the community circle jerking the horde racials to the point to where every mouth breather believed the common word and went horde cuz “RACIALS OP” when in reality alliance has just as good and in a lot of cases even better racials.
No, it’s not an issue.
Alliance has faced actual real gameplay and design issues since the inception of classic.
Guess what? We’re all still here. Our issues were never addressed. Y’all are gonna be fine.
Those of you that weren’t going to stick around are going to quit eventually anyway.
Game’s fine, reroll or enjoy your queues. It’s super simple.

You’re objectively wrong. This was poorly designed faction balance, period. This is not the fault of the players no matter how hurt you are over classic phase 2.
It is actually.
You had every change to swap to Alliance when TBC started and you rolled a blood elf.
Anyone who’s anyone knew Horde queues would be terrible in TBC because of the influx of blood elf players.

This is true. And you know where the place is for experimenting? Retail.
So let’s let 'em solve the faction balance problem in retail then they can post up a powerpoint here detailing what they need to do to fix it.
Then we can vote on it?
Where’s the imbalance? What’s so imbalanced by it. Because in order to prove this you need to prove how it’s imbalanced from a pvp point of view. And I’m just going to take a stab at this and say you have no idea how pvp works if you believe this.
Just play both factions sheesh.
I have yet to see a single logical argument against mercenary queue; it’s just a bunch of screaming window-lickers saying it will break the game on the basis of nothing. As of right now the Alliance are the only ones who can purchase the level 70 honor gear. It’s a clear advantage that they are gatekeeping. Seriously, not one logical argument against it. Adding mercenary queue effects NOTHING other than allowing one faction to play the content. Alliance players, just say it; you don’t want us having the level 70 honor gear.
Then you haven’t been reading

How about the notion that all the Horde premades will obviously use merc mode, and therefore all the premades in the entire game will be coming from Alliance side?
Just imagine if you randomly go against a premade… now imagine if those chances were now quadrupled or something.

Not the point. You’re asking for something that’s entirely off the menu because your foods taking too long.
Yeah, you’d go to another restaurant where you don’t have to wait right? Like…the Alliance restaurant.

No one would transfer to Alliance unless they have friends there because there would be NO BENEFITS to playing Alliance over Horde if you remove the one plus to playing Alliance.

Lol. It will change soon. Ill be back to quote what u just said too
No it won’t. Most of them won’t switch.
You have to earn the right to play alliance.
You earn this right by being outnumbered and ganked over and over while leveling and taking tonger to reach max level.
You don’t get to play easy mode to 70 and then swap

Play Ally horde has ever advantage over Ally except que times cant take that away or there is no incentive to play ally.
No, not really. Not with seven level 60s I’d be leaving behind. If there were a faction change button, and my guild and friends wanted to come with me, I would faction change in a second for the extra expertise and rep gains. But I can’t, because it isn’t available.
