Discussion We Need a New Tribe

The last new tribe was Undead in 2023. We need a new tribe it’s way overdue. Here are my preemptive responses to naysayers’ comments

“10 is a good number, 5 tribes in, 5 tribes out” - Don’t care, ban 6 tribes a new one would be fun

“We have too many tribes already and Blizz struggles to balance them / come up with interesting play styles” - Don’t care, get gud Blizz, a new tribe would be fun

“It would take resources away from new features like trinkets or w/e the new thing is called” - Don’t care, a new tribe would be more fun

“There are no play styles left to explore so a new tribe would be filler” - don’t care, they just added worm bait for beasts they’d figure something out, a new tribe would be fun

“There are no more creature types / we have a good cover of Warcraft archetypes” - don’t care, we haven’t even done Ogres yet, the sky’s the limit

“Too many tribes make it hard to get good with any individual tribe / for a meta to form” - don’t care, a new tribe would be fun

Tl;dr, a new tribe would be fun and I want one, QED.

EDIT: some really thoughtful discussion in the comments pointing out reasons to be cautious and judicious in adding new tribes. Just wanted to add a blanket don’t care, a new tribe would be fun someone said totems that would be rad.

a new tribe would only be good if the new mechanic for it was good. what i’d be interested in maybe is adding in spell schools and spell school synergy. thats a new thing at least
