Which Race and Class do you think will be the most/least popular in Classic?
Furthermore, do you think some of these Race/Class’s will experience harder fallout when the tourist leave than others?
In my opinion, this will be the most played Races and Classes in order from most played to least.
1.Human
2.Undead
3.Orc
4.Night Elf
5.Dwarf
6.Troll
7.Gnome
8.Tauren
1.Mage
2.Rogue
3.Warrior
4.Hunter
5.Priest
6.Druid
7.Warlock
8.Paladin
9.Shaman
I also think Warriors will have the most people drop out before hitting cap.
What do you think?
warrior will be most played then mage. For race human and orc.

I feel kinda special, wanting to make a Tauren Shaman. Why is the race, and class, not popular?
Shaman are rarer because they are horde only (and forced into healing mostly endgame) and Tauren are big and bulky and some people hate Mulgore. I personally love Tauren and Mulgore and cant wait to be a Tauren Druid
Not sure why we should be interested in popularity when races and classes speak to people differently.
Orc and undead may be the most popular horde races but it’s not to say Tauren and Trolls don’t have their own charms.
Rogues might be the “badass” griefer but we all greatly appreciate having a Druid in the group.
Shaman is quite popular on horde. Tauren, not so much, as most people don’t want to be a big hairy cow. Personally, I’d roll orc, as I don’t like tauren or troll.
I’m still torn over playing a tauren vs. a troll shaman, just because of Mulgore. But I figure if I play a druid too, that has to be tauren (BEAR WITH HORNS) so I will have that covered. But I still kinda like the tauren cultural approach to shamanism over the troll one, a little. But those troll tusks!
Yes I have a thing for horns & tusks, sue me.
I do too. That’s one of my main reasons for liking Tauren shaman. It’s that Native American motif.
Human>Undead>Night Elf>=Orc>the rest in terms of popularity
Most played classes will be the traditional RPG trio: Warrior, Rogue, and Mage. I expect the faction excusive classes to be pretty popular as well
Warstomp is so nice though! Get the mean melee off you for a second to breath. Mulgore is so calming even though the quests are so spread out, and Thunderbluff is the most beautiful city Horde have in classic. Tauren fit so well with shaman and druid lore.

If humans are going to be the most popular I’d expect Paladin to move up a couple spots; also really hoping gnomes are less rare this time around if people truly want to do things differently like they are proclaiming
