Little hint on the WoW Alliance Race

Like all the races in WoW now you'd have to have been able to play as the race at some point as a unit. Draenai would be one that fits the others. But, most of these have be play'd as a unit and not a special character for just the scenario. So My guess is they are going to pull something off the nightelf side,like dryads of mountain giants or one of those weird races. Gnomes was kinda pulled out of no where considering theres only like 1 unit that has them. So theres a lot out there it could be. But as of now Dreanai seems to be the logical choice. They are in the outlands with the bloodelfs so they could easily throw in some lore as to why these two races don't get along and why they dreanai are now part of the alliance after maybe meeting them as they pass into the new lands.

The Draenei do seem like the most logical choice, therefore they may also be the least likely one.

Logically Furbolgs, Pandaren and Draenei all make sense

In that they're the only races who aren't primal savage slaughterers who don't really give a damn about civilisation, yet alone the Alliance

Naga

Personally i'm hoping its the naga, their just too vital a race to simply exclude them. It's doubtful it will actually be the naga, since the humans would never trust them, but its just how i feel on the matter. :?

Also, isn't the portal to outland in Dalaran? Won't it be kinda difficult to go through with the eye of Dalaran there?

Naga frequently attack Alliance and Horde coastal cities. There are higher odds of Nerubians being the race than them

The Dark Portal is in the Blasted Lands. That portal Illidan made was just a short-term thing

On another forum (you could probably find it on Gamespot.com), one guy belives that the alliance race is high elves.

Yes, I am aware that high elves and blood elves are pretty much the same thing. Im just restating.

I dont really see this happening. . . but blizzard works in mysterious ways.

Rumour statith that Caydiem said that the race wasn't going to be High Elves

And I seriously doubt that Blizzard would make the new Alliance race a carbon copy of the new Horde race

I find it funny how those Broken actually destroy a fair few Draenei supporter's arguments, saying that the Draenei left Illidan because he was corrupt

But nope, just like I figured, they stayed, and changed from fungus men into cooler looking pseudo-Protoss

They're Akama's followers. The Draenei who sided with Illidan

They're also about ten billion times more awesome looking than a normal Draenei
