A Warning to all you new players - Don't join Horde

[Diggot]

DO NOT... and i repeat DO NOT roll Horde on Nostalrius.

Horde are getting completely demolished in pvp, they win BGs once in a blue moon and get stomped
on a regular basis by premade and PuG alliance. This current generation of Horde-players are completely
and utterly useless in pvp. They never use any CC in pvp, such as Sap, sheep, root, MC or frostnova,
and alliance are completely dominant in WSG with their druid-supported BoF-paladins.

The current status of Horde-healers is the mindset of "I do what i want" dps-healers that don't care of
you are carrying the flag or need support in any other situation, they are just out of damage.

Then we have tons of level 60 horde joining BGs with GREEN GEAR, really bad green gear, against medium
ranked alliance that are most likely geared from instances or pvp..

In other words its a mess. Even in BGs without the alliance premades, you have 1-3 Marshals running around
just instakilling horde, and due to their high rank, they automatically gets the full support of any and all
paladins in the current BG, while Horde warriors have to BEG for healing and Windfury from Shamans,
while the priests and mages can't be bothered dispelling any CC from the warriors..

This past week that i've experienced the 60bracket of Horde, i've been told that it has always been like this
and it's just a matter of getting used to until you get enough rank (10+) and gear.. which takes forever...

And up until that point, you have to settle for losing and losing repeatedly. And the sad part is that for every
loss for Horde, Alliance gets stronger and stronger faster, which becomes a bad circle of constant imbalance
in pvp..

So when AV opens up - expect to NOT WIN much if you are horde, due to the superior numbers of Alliance high ranked.

Just a friendly warning.

Did u at any time questioned urself, why alliance is so bad at 1on1 and then cry for someone on maxlvl for gettin ganked?! Hord is mostly made of hard guys, who want to prove themself in a challenge and if not they are formed to be so. Sometimes I also complain on teamplay but I learned u have to talk to those people in the right way. Then u get a bunch of warmachines. Thats my experience of around 9 years wow.

Back then my druid grew up on the german server Frostwolf. Hord : Alliance was around 1 : 2.5 this time. Now it turned around, cause Hord is so much cooler.

indeed, horde is (in roleplay/race mechanics and "real person behavior") really individualist for pvp, the feeling of being more than your teammates is allways there, wich is not always the alliance case, because they are often well support/teamplay-organized... but this is not wrong at all, that means that horde potential is greater than the alliance, so they need to cooperate to defeat them... Now, the inefficiency of the horde on pvp can be fixed building some pvp guilds (and joining them) and SPAMING enhace/resto shamans and shadow priests (pallys and warriors are useless against shadow priests and warlocks)...

[Chevejo]

Yep, you got what I mean! Funny that the lore of the hord is exactly like that. Trolls, Tauren, Undead and Orcs had to be putted under one hat first, before fighting together! It was Thrall or am I wrong?

But I cant say Hord or Alliance have better racials in PvP They just need to be played in their own way. Elves for example are good in running away with their disengage racial.

For PvE I need to say Hord is much stronger with their racials, when looking towards dps.

If every last person took what he said to heart, there wouldn't be any more horde. He's not actually trying to prevent people from joining horde, he's just frustrated and venting.

[Guybrush]

That's funny, I have the same issue with Alliance. 90% of the matches we're vastly outnumbered, 4-5 vs 10, and even when we're full half of the team is AFK.

I haven't won a wsg in at least a week.
