Allied race wise I’d still love high elves, wildhammer, and forest trolls (probably not gonna happen at this point). But new race wise?
Stormhiem Vrykul for Alliance and Stonemaul Ogres for Horde, those are my top picks for fresh races.

what would the females look like, is there such a thing?
There’s been a variety of concepts.
Currently I’d think the female maldraxxi gladiators are closest in what we could expect as the males use a modified ogre animation set.
Here’s a few fan art

Or…The troll war mothers are another good option for what they could look like. They’re built off the male kultiran.

I need Ethereals in my life. With Void Elves existing, it’s all setup and ready to go.
None. At present, I do not have any room left for additional races if I want to stay with friends/guild. Too much waters things down.
Yes, well I’ll need to rip my eyes out before I get a visual.
For Alliance:
Jinyu, High Arrakoa, Sethrak, “Light” Undead, Ethereals - less “humans” please. We have enough of them.
Horde:
Gilgoblin, Ogres, Naga, Cursed Arrakoa, Hozen
No covenant races.
Enough with this crap of both factions helping a race only to not have it playable on the faction you helped them on. I’m still pissed I invested in Nightborne as Alliance, and then oops, Horde gets two flavors of Highborne with almost the exact same story.

Yeah, I felt the Nightborne should have been Alliance and Void Elf Horde, but they wanted to give Horde a night elf model and Alliance Blood elf…shrug

I’m a super hardcore velf player and even I can admit the void elves are more of a Horde race than current Blood Elves. It still makes no sense to me why they’ve Alliance outside writing Umbric as not liking the Horde.
Granted, that’s more a mistake of them having absolutely no foreshadowing or build up for them.
Nightborne back then looked like they were going to be the Alliance’s parallel “highborne” to the Horde’s Blood Elves with how the story was so similar.
Oh well.
It’s in the past. I just don’t play those alts.
Naw. There is absolutely nil lore reasoning for nightborne to go alliance. Tyrande was suspicious of them. Justified or not. Lady Liadrin bonded with them. They had infinitely more in common with blood elves than night elves. Even with the night elves letting mages back in their society.
Void elves going alliance make sense because of Alleria.
Though Alleria going alliance is a little odd. Because she acts like “this is the same alliance it always has been! The same as the last time I was on azeroth” when the alliance of lorderon fell during the third war. The modern alliance only has 2, well arguably 3 of the same nations as the original alliance. Iron Forge, Stormwind, and Gilneas. Silvermoon went horde. Dalaran is neutral. Lordaeron itself fell/became horde. Aerie Peak fell. Alterac fell. Stormgarde fell.

Yes please!
Ethereals. Another neutral race that could be played by ally/horde.

Relatively few people are playing the plethora of races from BfA, why add more?

that is a mighty ironic thing to say on a vulpera. Also if you check the forums or in game. Void elves, Vulpera, Zandalari are all incredibly popular races. Think those all beat out pandaren.
Hrmn… Saberon for the Alliance, Sethrak for the Horde.
