Horde Victory
The drum-led victory sting for a Horde battleground win.

Where you hear it
The Horde answer to the Alliance fanfare leans on war drums and a rougher, tribal brass line. It plays as the scoreboard opens after a Horde win. At twelve seconds it runs a little longer than the Alliance version. Faction pride runs deep in battlegrounds, and many players can name their side's victory theme from the first bar. It works as a ringtone with real presence.
TriggerPlays on the end-of-match scoreboard when the Horde wins a battleground.

Ringtone
At 12.0 seconds, Horde Victory is longer than a ring cycle, so start the ringtone at its strongest passage and cut it to about 20 seconds.
Notification sound
Over a text, a twelve-second drum-led fanfare is unmistakable, though at 12.0 seconds it is best saved for the alerts that matter.
Discord soundboard
The full Horde Victory clip runs 12.0 seconds, past a 5.2-second soundboard slot, so cut the most recognisable part.
