Alliance teams: easy win
Horde teams: humiliating loss


It all comes down to two racial abilities:

Warstomp
Arcane torrent (AoE silence)

Nothing else.

Amen, brother!

After losing so many arena battles to groups of all tauren/blood elf set-ups, I'm almost ready to reroll horde, level up to 70, farm BGs for a month, lose 10 arena games/wk for 3 months, run about 50 heroics, and get gear similar to what my alliance guys have now.... all just to get Warstomp/Arcane Torrent.

I'll wager good money that the highest ranked teams on all battlegroups are horde, simply due to the racials.

It is frustrating that in the first 20 seconds of creating a character you can so screw yourself that in the next 40 days played you'll never be as good at an area of the game Blizzard *almost* forces you to play to get decent gear.
