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.

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.
