Which side dominates more in this realm? I used to play in frostwolf realm and horde used to get owned all the time, it was impossible without premade. What is the situation here? :)

I would say both sides are good

Well, I will tell you what you wanted to hear. Of course! Alliance are dominating in BGs all the time, Humans are OP! And we Horde never win a single BG.
Everyone happy, everyone leaves thread.

I haven't done a BG here in ages, I was just making a comment how any thread about a topic like this is doomed to turn into drama.
At OP: Do premades and the faction won't matter. If you don't do premades, you will lose on both sides.

Topics like these, only turns into drama when lots of kids flocks into this thread. Those faction jumpers acting like ping-pong balls, they are the reason why a faction loses a lot. When Alliance are dominating in BGs, Hordies that only want's to get carried faction change to Alliance. Once alliance gets flooded with these people, the faction starts losing. It works both ways.
I que alone most of the time now, ever since I left MFD. It's actually more fun and challenging and if I lose a BG, it doesn't matter. I always give it my best. If the other team is too strong? then it's understood that you can't win at all. I get bored sometimes when I'm in premade and all allys dying just by running through. I could eat popcorn while playing.

I play horde and win most of my bgs. While I do think alliance racials are much better for most classes, that doesn't matter. If you're actually a good player with even decent gear, you'll be able to influence the games enough to win more than you lose.
As a troll balance druid with mostly ruthless, my with rate is close to 70% and I don't do premades aside from queing with 1 or 2 IRL friends, neither of which play healers and we're usually your typical "noob PvPers" just going around pvping for fun having our team complain to us during games we win.
TL;DR if you know how to play the game fairly well, you'll probably win more than you lose.

It depends mostly on both sides average item level and AFKness :D
Then skills, 'morale' and strategies

Yes, those AFK players is what I was mentioning on my recent post. Of course, gaining honor while afk in BGs needs a faction that wins a lot.

Holy **** i have no words to express what i think about rbgs, average horde players and the intellectual capacity of some of the ppl that i had the "honor" to play with. Two days ago i transfered from Neltharion and i thought that the things cant get any worse... there the usual scenario from the horde side was blue geared ppl with little or no idea how the things work in any of the bgs but still manageable and with a little effort... defend, attack , report inc etc...victory can be achieved unless ofc we are not facing hundred dollar premade, tentacle procs everywhere and stuff like that. But on Sargeras, oh boy, was i surprised...every single bg there are few ppl with full green gear (i have nothing against ppl with bad gear if they know what to do) but dks with intellect and spirit on more than one slot or mages with str rings and the list goes on and on....i mean wow... Last WSG was when i lost all hope, i was alone with the flag in our base , only one person from our team was making attempt after attempt to return our flag and the rest of the monkeys were pvping in front of our tunnel...unsuccessfully...managing to let through 2-3 alliance players and keep me constantly entertained and the things went like this: i kill them, they come back i kill them again, they come back....as a feral druid its not that hard, root, cyclone, bear form, 3x lifebloom, healing potion when the things get really nasty until the moment when i had on me 7 stacks of the flag debuff. I dont get angry when in some bgs we loose because we were simply outplayed by the opposite team. But in situations when im busting my *** , especially in WSG, sometimes if i get lucky while running with their flag i manage to return ours and score a point while the rest of our team are getting raped in the middle and if we win those same ppl will get free honor, free because smashing the keyboard with one hand and jerking with the other is not really an effort... and of course they will requeue again and maybe some other fools will carry them through the next bg. Large number of players are doing that on Sargeras, for me its just pointless to waste 20-30 minutes for 35 honor but it seems that more and more ppl like it and that whole honor leeching business ruins the PVP aspect of the game.

In battlegrouds important is gear and people you play with, not faction there are good player's on both side's.
In general if you que alone and face a premade you lose. If you que as premade vs random's you win.
Question is what happen when premade vs premade are faced in BG's? I belive Alliance win more becouse we are doing alot of full sync premade's 10/10 or even 15/15 and Horde just happen to be overrun.
End of story.

Just start to enjoy pvp and forget about the win or lost.. Join in premades and you will find out that it doesnt matter which side you pick. Its the same like raiding , you raid with a guild and try to ignore the pug groups same way around for pvp.
Gear is not everything , the whole realm is based on ilvl here and ilvl there... People should open their eyes and put more prio in skills instead of gear and start to enjoy pvp instead of smashing keyboards and insulting players because they see World of warcraft as a game and not their second life.
