Here, Here.
I think its about time we get some variety for once on the alliance instead of Horses, Horses, Horses, and more Horses.
Like more Ram Mounts like Wildhammer One, or more Night Elf Mounts like Sabers or maybe stealing the Blood Elves Precious Birds like Hawkstriders and making it our own. Heck if the Horde players want Horses let them have it. I'll be happier stealing Hawkstriders, Dinosaurs, and Goblin/Gnome Updated Car Mounts anyday.
Also if Kul'tirans are using Death Magic. Can we have a ugly death horse like the Kul'tiran Druid Forms but better. I know i said no more Horses but atleast be creativeful about it in terms of being original or a donkey drust mount. Heck i would kill to have a awesome llama mount to get some Incan/Aztec Themes into it. XD
The death wicker horse sounds awesome tbh

I love horses new and old, they’re the only mount I care about beside my red shadow pan riding tiger, keep your fancy turtles and flying carpets thank you.
Also, anyone know how to get the Kil’Tiras horses (or any other new ones that are out?)
If you think there is a chance we are getting anything other than recolored horses with saddles and accessories copy/pasted from existing mounts the rest of the xpac, well, I don't know what to tell you. /smh

All I really want is a nice, unadorned Palomino. Well, okay, some adornment might be okay. Like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigger_(horse)#/media/File:Roy_Rogers_and_Trigger.jpg
Mounts are a byproduct of the environment and culture, those happens to be horses with kul tirens who are humans.
7th Legion doesn't have anything to do with Kul Tirans. How about a nice new lion mount? Champions of Azeroth doesn't have anything to do with Kul Tirans. How about a cool azerite golem mount? Order of Embers, yeah they are Kul Tiran but they could have gotten a cool wicker beast mount. Storm's Wake, again yeah Kul Tiran but how about something thematic like a giant crab or water elemental mount? Proudmoore Admirality? Yeah cool give them a horse.
This isn't about all of our reps being human themed. This was about lack of effort.

Gilneas and Kul'tiras are literally human kingdoms. Humans use horses akin to how Orcs use wolves, bloodelves use hawkstriders/dragonhawks and zandalari trolls use dinosaurs.
You knew what fantasy trope you were signing up for. I suggest you not complain about horse mounts in a human kingdom, but complain to Blizzard to stop putting so much damn focus on human human human.
Well paladins didn't get much choose there did we, i dont want to be human or a space goat or a little person
Your fault for being boring then?
The very reason I main a goblin is because they are not human, they get cool trike mounts and are green.
Why would you want to be a boring human? My alliance warrior is Draeni but I may change her to a gnome.

By that logic, the Horde mounts should be three recolors of raptors since trolls ride raptors, but you got mounts other than that. Blizzard had a chance to bring something new to the table Alliance side with the seafaring monster hunters, but instead we got three recolored horses with pieces from old mounts copied and pasted onto them.

Basically this.
I don't mind that kul'tiras is human themed. I just want different mounts besides of what we have 10s of already.

Next mounts will be:
A horse riding a horse riding another horse for the alliance.
Horde gets a T-Rex that breathes fire and can walk on water.

I feel like that post who quoted me really brought nothing relevant to the table bringing up the champions of azeroth and the like. I don't see that as reinforcement of any kind.
You are allied with kul tirens who traditionally ride horses, as horde is allied with mag har who traditionally ride wolves.
The problem I am noticing is that people who like the alliance theme and alliance races aren't liking the byproducts of said races and themes as they aren't as "exotic" as the horde mounts which are a byproduct of their people,culture and zones, just like the former with kul'tirens.
Sure wicker mounts sound cool but it doesn't quite make sense yet but I am expecting them in the future.
If you were allied with some sort of race like mantrid or something I would expect a bug mount or something very different from a horse as it wouldn't make sense otherwise, in the case of kul tirens it makes perfect sense.

Dont worry, I'm sure whenever they add paragon chests, they'll all reward gryphons instead. /sarc

It doesn't make sense for a wicker horse from a race that can literally change themselves into wicker beasts? You do know that the majority of those wicker beasts were animals turned into wicker beasts right?
I don't mind horses, but put some creativity into it.
Why isn't the Drustvar horse a captured wicker/wicker-armored horse or something for instance?
The real kicker is that in an expansion themed around Islands and naval expedition, we didn't get a SINGLE new waterwalking mount.
It's still just those damn bugs from MoP/WoD.
At least give us one of those sauolisks that can run on water like the Jesus lizard. They don't even need to kick back onto their hind legs when they do it, but it'd be neat if they did.
7th Legion/Honorbound should also have rewarded Alliance/Horde themed Gnomish/Goblin minisubs.
This xpac is so cheap and lazy it just stinks of being a placeholder for whatever comes next that will probably be revealed to have been partially developed along side BFA like WoD was with Legion.

I threw CoA in cause I thought an azerite mount is cool. Aside from that though you are just ignoring everything else to suite your own argument. By your own standard all Horde should have gotten was 3 reskinned raptors.

the human faction can keep their human horses.
I don't understand. why blood elves feel the need to overcompensate, since they are just humans with pointy ears.

it isn't the same logic, and zandalari trolls are vastly different from our playable darkspear trolls, being the original troll race and once the most powerful empire in the entire world. Biologically and resource wise they are the superior version of troll. Our darkspear litterally live in huts in comparison to their Temple of gold.
Not to mention they live very far out and inside a dinosaur jungle, go figure they wouldn't tame what is around them, they even have quests and lore on how they cultivate all these dinosaurs for labor,war and anything in between.
If that sounds boring to you in comparison to kul tirens and wicker magic maybe you should play horde.
Of course you want another horse . Stop horsing around

then you aren't listening to my standard if you are still saying horde should have gotten recolored raptors.
I literally explained the consequence of themes and you are choosing an emotional response that it isn't fair, it all makes perfect sense.
There is nothing to ignore here.
then you aren't listening to my standard if you are still saying horde should have gotten recolored raptors.
No I am, your position is "alliance is boring so they should get boring mounts" which is just a completely ridiculous position to take in a game that (is supposed to) support 2 factions equally.
