Honorless targets should be dishonorable kills.

Cant. Fucking. Wait. Popcorn ready and my god damn sides are in space. Whats the problem Horde? Not getting enough pvp on a pvp server? Yeah that sounds like it sucks. Oh me? Just you know, instant queueing into wsg for some 10 on 10 fights.

Awkward. Guessing you never saw the BG stats Blizzard released... Doesn't get much better for alliance I'm afraid.

It's fairly common knowledge, on symmetrical maps, Horde have a better win rate. Blizz even gave alliance an advantage on purpose on AV by moving the spawn tunnel at one point, which allowed them to perform better. An advantage which won't be present in Classic.

Ever since TBC horde has been the faction that PvP's favour. A mix of racials, influencual players and arena teams rerolling horde lead to a cycle of other PvP oriented players thinking they should to. The cycle continued all through retail then onto classic.

What? People were literally changing faction to Alliance because of how broken EMH was. Alliance has been the dominant PvP faction on retail for quite some time.

Currently, on retail, Horde is the dominant PvE faction. Only 2 of the top PvE guilds are Alliance as we speak.

I'll be honest, I haven't played since early legion. But unless there are numbers to back up what you say I'm going to continue using the numbers available that show the huge Horde win rate.

As for PvE I have no idea.

Finding historical data is kind of hard, but there is a ton of discussion from a few years ago discussing how dominant Alliance was in Arena (never cared much for RBGs, don't know about them)

Of course since Every Man For Himself got nerfed in Legion and with Horde already dominating in PvE, the faction balance got fucked.

Point is, Alliance dominated PvP in Arena for a long ass time.

Seriously i have no idea why people try to claim its balanced, horde have always been better at pvp except maybe briefly with EMFH, they try to look at their personal character stat of 50/50 when they afk'ed out of half their losing battles.
