They’re the one class that makes sense to be available to every single race, even lightforged draenei( you could argue them as demon subduers) .
The lore premise of a warlock is being a societal outcast, you’re not born into it or brought into it as your upbringing.

I like the idea because it means more summons and soul stones and whatnot
Additionally, warlocks have too much unique utility. Just like brez and lust have four classes that can do it now, there should be four classes that can summon, four classes that provide healthstones (or something like it), and four classes that can make gates (or something like it).
Mages should make frost slides that are like gates, you just slide down them. Warriors should stand there and throw everyone to the target spot, throwing themselves there at the end of the cast. Idk what paladins do but they should do a gate as well.
Warlocks are one of the least sensible classes to make available to every race what are you talking about?

Remove all race/class restrictions.
Lore nerds be damned I say.

I’m looking forward to making a Warlock Pandaren that is a “witch”. Please forgive me Emperor Shaohao for rejecting your teachings and gift. Demons are just cool.
I agree. The entire fantasy behind a Warlock is being an outcast, of not being accepted, for delving into forbidden magic. The only playable race that doesn’t discriminate against Warlocks are the Forsaken.
Every other race the Warlocks have to hide themselves away in caves or basements or other such out of sight places.
I think Warlock will be the next class to be made open to all races.
I don’t see any logical way for Night Elves, Draenei and especially Lightforged Draenei to be warlocks given history in the WoW universe. Even the destruction to lore Blizz did with the Jailor being master-planner cannot remove that. Making these races playable warlocks is basically just providing toys to play with with no meaning behind them.

Lore wise most race/class restrictions are due to cultural reasons not mental/ physical reasons so I can see a of restrictions being lifted. Races and different classes have been mixing for awhile now so I can some people of different races rejecting those cultural reasons and embracing classes like warlocks.
Yeah, just do away with race/class restrictions, I want to roll a tauren rogue plz.

It takes a special “soul” to be a Lock.
Exactly they make more sense than any other class and when we see a group of warlocks we always see a vary of different races even back in vanilla where when we see a paladin order or shaman troop theyre all the same race.
Warlocks don’t care who you are cause they’re all outcast

what a shame that we cant be that
My only hangups are Mag’har and both flavours of Draenei. By definition, you cease to become those things as a Warlock.
Same. I’m looking forward to the salt I’ll get if/when I can make a Nightborne Shaman

For the Draenei, I could see them renaming the race in the character creation to Eredar and you pick either the blue skinned Draenei or red skinned Man’ari as customizable options.
I can understand some hang-ups for the Lightforged and Mag’har though.
