Good news, Europe is once again feeling some free character migration love. Blizzard has announced a week-long migration event in an attempt to balance out factions on specific servers. So if you've been looking to migrate, this might well be a good time.Free character migration is available from July 1st till the 7th which gives you a week to decide if you make the move or stay put. As usual, Blizzard could well end the migration when their desired faction balance on each realm is achieved.
So who can move and where? If you're Alliance and currently playing on the European realms Burning Legion, Grim Batol, Ravencrest, Sylvanas and Silvermoon (PvE) you can move to the Horde-heavy servers of Magtheridon and Vek'nilash. Meanwhile if you're Horde, and on Al'Akir, Kazzak, Magtheridon and Stormscale, you have the option of transferring to the Alliance-dominated realms of Burning Blade, Neptulon, Tarren Mill and Trollbane.

Why would any Horde want to migrate off of Magtheridon? It has Ensidia on it, which is FIRST in the World Rankings.

If there are massive queues? Not everyone's a fanboi on the server I'd think.

I've never had a single queue since I started playing on February.

Because these days Magtheridon is infested with Kuwait players and lots and lots of annoying kids and newbies.

Mazrigos is imbalanced but nowhere near the state that Magtheridon (1:10.3, 21000 characters) or Silvermoon (18.5:1, 27000 characters) are in.

Unless you're Polish, I'd avoid Burning Legion.
That's not an afront to the Poles, it's just that more than half the time in trade and general etc you don't know what's going on if you're just an English speaker.
