That would be amazing.
Just imagine 20 warrior joining a 20man deathmatch.
BLAAAADSTOOOORMMM
People seem to ignore that the whole game is changing around EMFH, even if the ability does not change it doesn't mean it isn't nerfed.
First, consider that CC and burst are both being tuned down. That in itself may make the universal CC breaker ability less valueable.
Second, we don't know how PvP Trinkets will be itemized. We do know two things about Trinkets: (1) they will have the same stats as PvE Trinkets and (2) there's no PvP Power anymore. As such, if the Insignia has the same passive benefits as other PvP Trinkets, then having EMFH is essentially just being able to have either an additional proc or a on-use CD. Other races have their own racial procs or on-use CDs, so it kinda makes it more even. Humans won't have an extra 5% damage from PvP Power anymore.
Third, changes to EMFH may still be coming. They said they'd first define how PvP Trinkets would work to see if EMFH would need to be replaced or nerfed. Since we don't know how PvP Trinkets will functions (beyond retaining the Two-Trinket bonus 10% damage reduction from players), it's still too early to see if EMFH will stay the same.
I'm sure I can remember the racial being nerfed before to make the CD 3 minutes then they changed it back not long after that. Personally don't mind the racial it is the extra PvP power bonus that humans get that annoys me. They already get extra Agil/Int/Str to use when they want so why do they also get extra PvP power?
Imo they should just make it regardless of trinket setup you get the same PvP power and that would tone down the human racial slightly.
Even with the other people using the PvP trinket for freedom and gaining 1905 Crit/spirit etc, that still would not even come close to the extra 4765 primary stat on use when they want to burst.
It doesn't when you consider the human racial does alot of this too where it can act like a fear breaker, root breaker, stun breaker etc. It is a jack of all trades and can work like a gnomes racial (example) and still offer extra boosts that a gnome wouldn't have. Look at the racials people are questioning:
EMFH = free trinket = More PvP Power + Main Stat boost and in some cases more crit when used
WotF = Fear/sleep breaker = Crit/Spirit etc boost
Stoneform = Dispell = Crit/Spirit etc boost
Shadowmeld = Vanish = Crit/Spirit etc boost
and so on and so on.
Every racial only offers one boost in something because of the need to use a PvP freedom trinket, With the humans not needing this they gain 2 boosts instead of just one like everyone else. That being +PvP Power over others and an on use main stat boost that will in the case of Agility and Intelect offer crit too. So for some classes this racial actually offers 3 boosts over other racials.
The only other racial that comes close to the human one is Orcs Bloodfury, even then that doesn't offer a main stat so you do not gain crit from it. It either offers AP or SP.
Imo the boost in main stat alone is enough to make that racial worth it, the fact it also allows more PvP Power is just silly imo.

Human spirit isn't buffing primary stats, its only buffing secondary stats, crit, haste and mastery or multistrike. and wasn't blizz toying with the idea of giving Orcs EMFH?
Never said it wasn't. I am only talking about EMFH. With the extra trinket slot they gain way more stats than any other race in the game for PvP (explained in last post). To me that should not be because of a racial. But if you want to add in the spirit then they get even more again :P
Haven't heard of that idea at all, maybe missed it but don't recall that ever being mentioned.
