Ion spoke about WoW retail that doesn’t have servers, and a massive-server where you can play alongside everyone from WOW Classic TBC Gold your area. In general, it’s pretty balanced, however Horde usually has more experienced players , while Alliance has a lot of new players.
It’s not balanced to real players. Perhaps it’s balanced in terms of the how many characters have been made, but that’s easy to verify. I have characters at max level for both factions and you are able to log on and check M+ keys, or pug raids and it’s not even an inch away. The skill level is also quite different, but it’s difficult to determine objectively, and likely a result of anyone who is interested in playing seriously rolling to build hordes.

There are those who defend Blizzard for this reason. They make use of weak arguments such as “if players want Horde and that’s the way it will be played, and it’s impossible to stop people from playing Horde” but actually, that’s quite feasible.

Blizzard might allow you to switch factions from Horde or Alliance without cost, but they are just too *** to permit it. They responded, “This was not an option in the initial TBC”, while selling 6 months of game time which gives you the ability to purchase a Mount or pet that wasn’t available in cheap WOW TBC Gold the original TBC. This totally breaks immersion since it is the only pet that comes with modern animation.
