OK someone said it so I can say my case without feeling ridiculous!
What if Khaz Algar is not an expansion zone but rather is a class starting zone for Runemasters? We could start with Algar Dwarves and a local Tauren tribe from there living their area like with Wandering Isle and giving the Runemaster class to the factions.
The Hypetrain is going full speed!
Day 1: Metzen Returns!
Day 2: Layoffs!
Day 3: Elemental Mount on Blizzcon Ad
Day 4: "Algarian Stormrider" Achievement
So what would be the Horde Equivalent to a new Dwarf Stormrider? Dragonhawk Farstriders?
I somehow doubt they'd do a new class, simply due to precedent alone. Unless you count Allies getting Shamans and Horde getting Paladins in TBC, they haven't added a new class two expansions in a row. I feel like new specs, or even reworks of existing specs, would happen first. Stranger things have happened, though.
Orc Farseer.
That's a cool idea. I would honestly love it if these "dwarves" are good people, and we need to liberate some of them from the Void.
We in turn recruit them and gain access to their gryphon riders, shamans/runemasters etc.
What most people forget is that there's actually 6 different elemental types, the four obvious being Fire Earth Air and Water...
But there's also the 2 other elements which is Spirit which Resto Shaman and Monks used quite often because Spirit = Chi.. the other element is Decay which we've never seen much of aside from the Gnolls in Brackenhide... obviously it could include Death Knights, but they've never explicitly dropped the word Decay in Shadowlands

When it was consider by Blizzard, it was light armored magic melee. Which we have so many of.
I think you guys have this wrong. Storm Rider seems to be the name of the expansion. I'm betting Queen Azshara is the main antagonist along with the Naga. Dwarves are the guys who will help us.. along with Thrall serving as the poster boy/girl role
"You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation."
But they would have to be from whatever this prospective new expansion location is, like these undiscovered Dwarves Tyr wrote about. Elves are probably very unlikely to have a subrace in Avaloren/Khaz Algar. Trolls are more likely, but there's already so many subspecies of Trolls. I guess Goblins are most likely. Oh god we're getting a Not-Undermine Undermine expansion aren't we?
What if we got Azerothian Orcs that just happened to imitate the same evolution that happened on Draenor, where they evolved from a previously unseen Goren-like creature.I mean, you might be right: But the term already appears in the flavor text on a set of hammers. Ala the Dwarf Gryphon Riders.

Btw I know we have no indication it might happen, but another thing that absolutely would get people very excited other than a revamp and ties in to all the unique mogs we've been getting from trading post and elsewhere is
Class skins.
