The idea of a third faction,neither Alliance nor Horde, but not exactly Neutral, has been considered, discussed and speculated upon for years in the Warcraft community. Blizzard has never acknowledged or seriously considered it as an option, due to the lack of lore support (intentional or not) and the probable logistical difficulties of supporting a third faction in Warcraft games, but especially World of Warcraft. The idea of more than two factions is not new to Warcraft, since Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos had potentially four factions (Human, Undead, Orc, and Night Elf) that were later condensed into two for the MMO.

World of Warcraft Introduced a Third Faction(en)
abstract	The idea of a third faction,neither Alliance nor Horde, but not exactly Neutral, has been considered, discussed and speculated upon for years in the Warcraft community. Blizzard has never acknowledged or seriously considered it as an option, due to the lack of lore support (intentional or not) and the probable logistical difficulties of supporting a third faction in Warcraft games, but especially World of Warcraft. The idea of more than two factions is not new to Warcraft, since Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos had potentially four factions (Human, Undead, Orc, and Night Elf) that were later condensed into two for the MMO. Ironically, although not for an MMO, Blizzard already supports the idea of three factions (Terran, Protoss, and Zerg) in its RTS series of StarCraft games.
