Would you say your experience has been pretty balanced? I think I’m noticing Alliance winning a bit more than Horde (at least during this CTA)

Yep; pretty balanced.

Alliance win around 2/3, depending on the BG.
Never bothered to look. Mine is currently 1,058 played, 413 wins, pretty much reflects what I said before. Botting is actually part of the horde’s problem because horde has always had more than alliance, meaning we have to carry more deadweight they do not. For every 1 bot on alliance side, we’ll have 2 or 3. You can tell which faction Blizzard gives more of a crap about.
[Insert pointless quote and response here.]

I base most my feels off NIT data. But feels like alliance have a higher win ratio at:
EOTS
AV
Strand
And get recked in:
AB
WSG

No one plays IOC.
if you play horde, you will say horde loses most
if you play alliance, you will say alliance loses most

Confirmation bias is how the player base gauges BG win rates.
Usually whichever faction I’m playing for wins the most.
I play alliance and I probly have 75 % win rate.
If your geared and you do your job you win alot more then you lose
i used to say “the team with more or proper healers win in random bg’s” Now i’m saying "the team with less bots wins xD

total Bg’s played 188 > Won 92 so > 48.9% win rate
you can check yours if you open achievements and go to Statistics tab, player vs. player, Battlegrounds.
Edit: I queue solo and i believe it’s never fair if you faced teamed groups, i mean if 2~5players queue in group they need to only face a team where it also has players who queue’d in group, solo queue should always face solo queue.

My observation, anything that involves guarding (flags, tower, etc)…horde leaves 0 to 2 ( best case scenario). Usually, one low geared player. Otherwise, horde is out trying to top meters.
Ally, tends to have 2 to 3 guards (sometimes more).
Any BGs running flags, ally tends to have more twinks in…lower brackets.
Ally tends to have twinks and better geared players overall.
Horde seems to have more bots to carry.
60/40 for ally…tho time of day also plays a factor for wins, as well.
Overall it’s balanced, albeit very streaky. It’s not win one, lose one. More like win a bunch in a row, lose a bunch in a row. In the end, it tends to even out.

I actually have a hard time understanding how this can be true, while still believing it. 50% win rate in 1,000 Bgs according to statistics, but just spent >>seven<< hours trying to get my measly 50 conquest points from BGs today. Is there some algorithm actively trying to make this happen?
Depends on the time of day really.
Seems like earlier in the day horde wins more, then alliance wins more later at night.

MUH BIAS!!
If you find you’re losing a lot more than winning it probably has more to do with you being bad. 9v10 isn’t always easy
I stagger my run times around this and it works outs a decent amount of the time.
For what is my 1900 time for example I can find a WG alliance that wins most of the time. Offence or defence. As offence I have gotten no more than 8 minutes wins.
its then I fire up another char since lots of time and they…blow it out their butt there. but that on the 1900 crew is usually spot on. that 1910 crew…not so much.
In my experience, horde almost never loses at IOC. It’s about 50% on av and maybe ab. Other than that, I don’t even bother because we just get farmed. WG is about 50% also.
