The tauren are cheating. All that height is in the hump and not the head. I decree the trolls as the true tall kings of wow.

Aggra made him stop hitting the bagel stands to and from work.
Itās a metaphor for what the writing has done to him over the years.

It is stupid that they follow the sexual dimorphism of height even in fictional races, in favor of males.

They shrank them ages ago the model used to be taller but doors were a problem in some places. Lore wise bulls are 10 foot tall and even that is shorter than what they were in Warcraft 3 which looks around 12 feet.
The Cinimatics also show them as much larger. In the original the Tauren towers over that grizzly bear and in BFA the Tauren looks massive.
Edit: Just watched the BFA cinimatic again. Why couldnāt we have got THAT expansion.

Blizzard did not give us the expansion we wanted. They did not give us the expansion we needed.
Blizzard gave us the expansion they felt we deserved.
Because some devs have contempt for their fans, and remind us of that through tweets and interviews.

Warcraft is still pretty much written for guys. I remember the whole foofora of the Male Blood Elven look when they first came out. Male players were screaming about how āgirlyā they looked.

I recall the main accusation being they were too āgayā, as if that were an unpardonable sin. I have never forgiven Blizzard for caving and giving them more muscle.
Maybe Thrall didnāt get smaller, maybe Anduin just got taller. He is a grown a** man now.
The wording of this statement deserves acclaim, given what male players were actually calling male nelves.
Kudos Drahl. I see what you did here.

Ahn Quiraj was merely a set back!
Most animals reflect that because the male has to physically fight to pass on its genes thus only the strong have children. It makes sense that most creatures in wow would also follow this specially with how dangerous the world is. Weak people wouldnāt last long in wow even cities are not a guarantee of safety.
Kinda explains why everyone is roided up now that I think about it.

Wow is a fantasy universe. Millions of years of evolution didnāt take place turning competing male animals into male humanoids. The logical basis for why men became taller with larger bones IRL doesnāt apply to WoW.
Because females and males face similar sexual selection pressure.
