Rework the Horde banner

Knowing now that the Horde icon/sigil is just a Naaru thing the Orc shamans saw in a vision it is time that we as players get rid of this and find a better one that suits the whole faction. The Naaru are alliance at their core and should not be associated with the red team in any way possible. Blizzard should start getting creative and make something new that represents every race apart of it. Erevien has spoken.

Agreed. Vulpera flag will be the new Horde standard.

/approved.

No. It’s iconic. Also talking in third person is cringe so hath spoken Arashiko the love fool of the 9th dimentional clan of the love warriors!

Maybe we don’t tell you about how blood knights worked earlier in the Horde and how they interacted with Naarus.

Naaru are a Draenei thing. Draenei are part of the alliance. So Naaru should hold no influence over Orc culture.

It’s become more associated with the Horde than anything previous. Sometimes symbols get appropriated and the new user’s notoriety makes it so the symbol’s original meaning is never the same again.

I hate to use this example but it’s totally apt. The swastika was once a common symbol in Hindu and Buddhist cultures, but after a certain group started using it, it will never again be seen in its original context by most people.

The Naaru are also important to the orc’s culture. :headstone:

What do you have against a symbol that looks like a toilet seat? :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Naaru are a Light thing. Are you saying no horde deal with the Light?

Trial of Style or Dance Dance revolution with some Blood Elves could work…

Hmm brb checking the Horde population break down by race.

Making “UwU” look Horde-ish is challenging.

Plus, do not want to have this massive horde banner on my back tattooed over. This took like 4 sessions.

Perhaps that was its start but it has taken on its own meaning since then.

The Symbol was created for the old Horde. The Horde is no longer Just orcs. I believe it should change to represent all inhabitants equally.

it already does.

the horde is something you join, you become.

Metzen said it during an Interview.

The current thing is fixated on the Orcs only.
