Yes, and they can both be gnomes but people are preferring non-gnomes over them, it’s very sad!
Yeah orc is by far the best pvp race unfortunately.

It’s probably just as good it’s just everyones dedicated to 1 or 2 classes right now from the start of shadowlands and being that alting sucks people haven’t really tried new things and everyone is so fond of what their favorite streamer does. talking about feral/war or feral/dk or feral/ret.
there chicken is bad.
KFC is a poor man’s comp compared to jungle.
Jungle has better burst and control than KFC. Feral can also heal itself and survive longer in long cc chains than warrior or hunter.
I’ve played both at a high level this season and many others, and jungle is just way stronger into more comps due to its control, off heals, durability and pressure.

The reason you don’t see feral replacing warr in cleaves is because in any cleave mirror the team with the feral default loses pmuch. I play kitty cleave all the time and any TSG / Ret/warr / Turbo is typically a loss unless we outplay them, and if we win the game is usually very long.
Also, the reason you don’t see KFC is because hunters require a lot more support than warrior can offer in terms of healing/peeling, especially into the most popular cleaves. Also necro feral bleeds are pretty devastating into these types of comps because of high armor tbh, despite warrior being super busted high armor stuff a feral is still gonna do more damage. I’ve played it a bit with yoske, but it’s not a t1 comp because hunters kinda just die without ferals in 3s :/.

Because why play KFC when you can play Jungle which is way better. KFC can be okay if the warrior is kyrian. I have def seen it played it before this season but yeah it is just not that great because feral just works so much better with the comp.
I don’t get how jungle has better burst than kfc. I understand jungle is more durable and has better control which makes it a better comp. But more damage? War is def more bursty than feral.
Have you tried playing with a 1 min convoke feral?
If the target doesn’t have trinket and you cross cc…game over.
Necro warrior has similar burst but with a way longer CD.
Necro feral is more tanky/less burst but still pumps.
Even as necro feral a single adaptive swarm>feral frenzy is usually 20k+ damage. Feral doesn’t usually have numbers as big as warr that chunk you, but they can def keep up with a warr in DPS, are virtually unpeelable and extremely tanky :]
Sure they can do similar total damage, but as a feral main I do feel like necro feral damage is much more easy to heal than warrior damage, due to warrior dmg profile (chunk as u say) + sharpen blade. Dots in general give value to passive healing which are abundant, unlike “chunk” dmg like warrior does. So if a feral do the same total dmg as warrior i arena, I think he s doing much less pressure
Guess a lot of this depends on how the feral healing nerfs go. You might see KFC.
I’ve played against quite a few KFC teams, they do some disgusting damage, but as others have said - it’s a lot easier to kite / bait the warrior into a bad spot than it is a necro feral (in their current state).
Not to mention cleave/swap potential. As a necro feral it’s hard to swap damage since you gotta have single target dots
I’ve mained KFC since Legion, with this season being the first time since Legion S6 where I haven’t run Hunter / Fury War / X for the entire season. I’ve dabbled in jungle for SL S2 just so I don’t instantly melt every game.
It really just comes down to the meta being tuned around extremely strong burst with quick kills, and warrior not having offheals like a feral/Ret/spriest would has as a 2nd dps partner. Even enhancement offers decent enough heals to help a hunter survive while his healer is in CC, Hogx might be able to attest to the viability of beast cleave in this meta, not sure if it’s worth running.
TLDR; burst is to high and hunter needs a 2nd healer on the team to survive go’s. When the meta slows down KFC will be a solid sustain comp again.
