Let’s look at vanilla leaders.

Horde
Sylvanas: alive, blizzard writing her to be gone soon.
Carine: dead.
Voljin*: dead
Thrall: Out of commission; powerless… elements abandoned him.

Then let’s look at the alliance.
Anduin: alive, current high king. Plot armor till he’s grey.
Magni: Speaker of Azeroth; demigod alliance favoritism shown in recent book.
Mekkatorque: Alive; will intentionally freeze himself to save his life.
Tyrande: Now the avatar of elune, she’s pretty much a demigod.

Why is blizzard so afraid to kill any alliance leaders… even in the recent raid I wouldn’t be surprised if the alliance gets to kill all our npc’s and their npc’s ex machina escape.

You killed off our heroes all the time. Kill off some long standing alliance heroes blizzard.

Because the horde is the bad guys in every horde vs. alliance conflict no matter what and bad guys always lose.

It’s pretty dumb. Not only that, but now in-game alliance players every expansion cry to get free stuff and it works. Legion? 50% EXTRA honor no matter what. BFA? 30% extra rewards just for turning WM on. It’s getting out of hand. Punishing horde players because more people enjoy playing horde ISN’T the way to run a game.

More people would enjoy the alliance if it wasn’t written as humans and their buddies with zero culture difference from humans.

I don’t like how Blizz makes thread titles be all caps and bold. It scares me when there are long titles.

True but I think you mean Vol’jin.

I know right? Alliance should lose their high-king…oh wait.

I agree but Blizzard chose to write the alliance the sterotypical “good guys” fantasy. We shouldn’t have to suffer for it, though.

Varian’s dead but they Horde’s still two ahead on losing its leader.

Think about it this way, if the Alliance need a buff to even be able to stand a chance against us in PvP, it just shows we decimate them in it and they need their hands held.

Look at it this way, at least your leaders grow and have a story, until they die.

Except no lone Horde decimates them in it. It’s both sides just doing gangb-ng fest in wpvp. Before the bonus? 5v1 from Horde to Alliance in my experience. After the bonus? It’s just reversed

Sorry, from experience, we’re the ones always wrecking them if its even.

It’s hardly punishment, it’s just incentive.

In legion, the 50% extra honor is just because less alliance pvp’ed, it was an incentive to get them into it. Without it you’d be waiting even longer, you could even merc for the bonus if you wanted to, so really not seeing the complaint. It’s people’s fault for changing over for the Horde racials.

BFA WM bonus can easily be switched over if more Alliance end up in WM than Horde

It’s not a buff, it’s a bonus to xp and wq rewards. It doesn’t actively make us stronger, it just bribes us to turn war mode on.

I can count on one hand how many “even” fights I’ve seen. It’s either 1v1s, 1v5s, or two mass zergs who can’t get all of their raid into the same shard so impossible to discern numbers.

The fact that you have to explain that?

But considering horde has a higher population every time and most of us enjoy keeping WM on, that won’t likely ever happen. Just like the horde never got 50% extra honor.

Varian isn’t the vanilla human leader, anduin is. Varian lead humans from wotlk to the beginning of legion.

Why does nobody ever remember that the Alliance also lost TIRION?
Yes, he was mostly ‘neutral’ but, when chips fell, he was an Alliance stalwart.

I could be wrong but I’m betting that is mostly because of:
