D D 10 Things You Didn T Know About Orcs

Orcs in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) have been a controversial topic of late, to say the least. That’s because their lore, along with a few other races’, has been challenged by modern players who argue that making a race that is exclusively “evil” is an incredibly damaging message to send about groups of people. As such, new content for D&D has tried to deemphasize the concept that all orcs are warlike savages, and have started to suggest new histories and lore that use a more sympathetic lens on the orcs’ history, rather than using their “violent nature” as an excuse for everything that the book wants to paint in a negative light....

Valor ranks (earned via the casual playlist) are a non-issue because there is no penalty for losing as players rank up, but Glory rank (earned via the competitive playlist) is influenced by wins and losses....
