Hello!

There are raids on both factions so I'd say pick the one you like more. As far as I know alliance is more PvE orientated while horde is more PvP but as I said both factions have raids going on daily.

Welcome to the server and I hope that you will enjoy the time spent here! :)

What I mean is that when it comes to PvP the horde faction is more focused on this compared to Alliance that prefers PvEing more than PvPing. You can see that just by looking at the battleground queues most of the times.

Playing on both factions I do see how some things are.

PVE wise I feel that i can get way faster into a RDF or a raid compared to horde faction (also keeping in mind pug runs and not just big guild runs). I might not have the time to play all the time or maybe the times I log my play characters are not the best times.

PVP wise: lately is going better for both factions but again (win stat wise as alliance isn't getting roflstomed 24/7 that much anymore) but again most of the time when you queue (again might be the bad timing) you can get into a battleground way easier as an alliance player than as a horde. And of course there are times when the situation is reversed.

Anyway I believe this is not a topic where we should start discussing these things.

In any case as I said in my main most the OP can chose whichever faction he/she likes the most as no matter which faction he/she will chose there will be both PVP and PVE and I believe both can provide the player a great playing experience.

Welcome to the server! The factions have been fairly well balanced here, historically. The balance sometimes shifts to one side, but then seems to shift back or equalize after some months. Recently, alliance has been the faction which is slightly more played and successful in raids, but you'd be fine playing horde too. You'll be able to raid well no matter which faction you choose.
