So now that the DF alpha testers have access to the Ohn’ahran plains, it’s clearer than ever that Green Dragonflight content is mostly Kaldorei content : https://twitter.com/Portergauge/status/1557187314429792256
Also, the Cenarion Circle is here, with Druids from all races and traditions, including Trolls and Harvest Witches. There’s also a Thornspeaker guy. Good to hear from all of those guys but to have Druids from the Drust tradition in the Cenarion Circle just feels… wrong. It’s always the same problem

Won’t count for people like the Night Elf Persecution Brigade unless it’s Night Elf ONLY content.

It feels out of place because the Drust are tragically under developed. If they actually took the time to flesh out the benevolent Drust outside of two characters then it would make more sense for their inclusion.

Benign might be a more accurate description of those two. Benevelence is pretty much an almost totally absent quality in this setting. Characters that show it are endlessly mocked here.
Discussion tends to fail when people input their perspective onto very, very few paragraphs of text delineating the history of an empire that likely spanned thousands of years. I think World of Warcraft discussion should have its borders located within the video game largely because it is more tantamount to the experience instead of trying to have a discussion with someone whom collates dozens of novels, RPG books, manga and more to support their argument, most being as said before: Piecemeal.
And I say this as a roleplayer.
I take my words back. Now Ysera is a Nelf content. As she will now replace Malfurion, Ysera now will be archdruid of Azeroth, Shan’do for Night Elves, and Tyrandes husband…
While Malfurion will replace Ysera in Shadowlands, doing her business by standing at the Heart of the Forest all the time. 
Timelines converging means there will be a Living Malfurion showing up at a revived Teldrassil.
Ysera’s return ensures an Ardenweald-Death Magic-wielding version of her while giving us an Ardenweald-Death Magic-wielding version of Malfurion to live in Ardenweald as decoration.
An Ysera of Death and an Ysera of Dream… A Malfurion of Death and a Malfurion of Dream.
Azeroth needs Life and Death. Ysera balances out Alexstrasza by becoming a true Dragon Aspect of Death while Alexstrasza serves as the Aspect of Life.
Now we need to figure out who balances out Tyrande as she(wielding Elune’s Arcane Life Magic) embodies Life just as much as Alexstrasza! We need a Death Magic user…or is that us?..
The only people constantly talking about NE victim complexes are scumbag, smooth brained twits like you and the equally moronic OP. The NE player population has dwindled along with the general Alliance population. Rub two of your remaining braincells together and think about that.
According to these statistics from Icy Veins and others.
Night Elves still remain the 2nd most popular race behind Humans in Alliance. Their elven cousins continue to dominate Horde populations.
Globally however Horde has always dominated Alliance among the player base by a factor of 2 to 1. That’s been true from the get go. That’s why the Horde trike won over the Alliance motorcycle.

Surprisingly in Hearthstone there were more Alliance players than Horde ones, which let the Alliance win Alterac Valley there, despite Drek’Thar being a better card than Vanndar to the point that Drek’Thar needed to be nerfed.
We did saw only two nightelf druids there, nothing more. To say that cenarion circle means nightelf only content is a reach…
To be fair, Ysera knew Ulfar and sent us to him during the Ardenweald campaign, so Thornspeakers might already have connections to Cenarion teachings.
I always liked the idea that they may have gotten similar teachings to the Harvest Witches, and their druidism massively expanded. After all- that dragon skeleton involved in the questline in south western Drustvar isn’t a red Dragon, even though the quest giver herself is. Vadekius was a Green Dragon: and Val’sharah is practically a small flight or swim away for the Druids in Val’sharah. It makes sense that, when they started tapping into a pocket of the nightmare, that the forces of nature joined in the fight.
Holy ****, everyone here needs to touch grass. Including myself, tbh, for skimming this.
EDIT: To clarify, just the idiots arguing about a video game on the internet.
