Its not gonna be like u think. Vulpera were always gonna be Horde. Its obvious, look at the quests. Got my boy Smolfox ready for when they come out. Now if they could just give us Sethrak.

I liked the idea behind allied races, however in all cases, they are the same as existing races with different customization options.
I would rather they just get merged under an umbrella classification of their respective race. Have one of the customization options, be a stormwind human, or a kul tiran human. A IF dwarf or DI dwarf, Zandalari troll or darkspear, etc.
Why would Alliance get Sethrak? You’ll get Void Humans or Lightforged Gnomes, or some other phone-in race like you usually do.
Some on the lead dev team has a thing for foxes, Zootopia, and Disney, evidenced by the Overwatch character thats a literal ripoff of the hamster in the movie. Jaina’s remodel is based on Elsa from Frozen. And there’s been the Lothien mount, the Vulpera race, and the new flying fox mount thats probably tied to the next expansion.
Someone wants their fanfic stuff in the game.

As if this matters at all to Blizzard. Their lore is cobbled together by a bunch of writers who aren’t even in the same book, let alone the same page.
Void Elves and Lightforged Draenei worked with Horde then joined the Alliance.
Nightborne and Highmountain Tauren worked with Alliance then joined the Horde.
Lady Liadrin worked FOR me, and is now fighting me in Warfronts.

Why would the Alliance even get them?
Because like Vulpera the sethrak are hinted. Cannonically alliance save the Sethrak Leader.

I expect you to get junker gnomes at best. Blizzard wouldn’t be bothered trying to remodel armor pieces for an Alliance race with such a different model, get real.
We’ll get Junker Gnomes and probably Ankoan or Furbolg.
Best case scenario, Alliance get either Arakkoa or Sethrak.
Worst case scenario, only Horde gets a new race.
Mechagnomes are to me like the Sylverian Dreamer is to Talliesin. I just don’t really care one way or the other about them.
i feel like the sneks would be cooler then fox goblins

Actually, the Sethrak community did some mock ups using the Worgen armor models (IIRC) that looked pretty good. I am not sure it would take too much effort to rig the armor to them. I Would say the bigger obstacle is displaying gender since they lack any major visual differences between male and female.

I’m looking forward to my Vulpera, hopefully she can be a Druid!
And Dolly and Dot will be her mounts!

I don’t really think druidism suits them all that well…
Or well… Anything, really.
They’ll probably be given Warrior, Hunter, Rogue, Monk, and Priest just to keep the minimum requirement of 2 each of tank and healer.

I sure hope they can be monk, it’s my favorite class. (Goblins can’t be monks and they’re pretty similar) Also, Warlock and Mage too. Druid would be so awesome, but I doubt it.
Colors. red and bleu idk. I’m not a fan of snake boobs
I’ve already got the name frostfox reserved so I can race change my mage =P
Nice strawman you built there.
I bleed blue and gold, but I couldn’t give a damn about the vulpera joining the Horde, it only makes sense they’d go with the people that sided with them.
If anything, Alliance may get upset if we get mecha gnomes instead of Sethrak, or at least something new and exciting. I like gnomes, but mecha gnomes are just gnomier gnomes. Sethrak would at least be different, just like the Vulpera is for the Horde.
