The 2 power servers are Tichondrius and Blackrock. Ner'zhul, Frostwolf, and Kil'Jaeden are all pretty solid as well. If you want to go oceanic then either Frostmourne, Barthilas, or Blackrock (Blackrock is american but was the unofficial Aussie server before oceanics so has a lot of them) are the best choices there. If nobody speaks up from alliance on those servers you could always roll an alt on one of them and park them in a city to see how much premade spam there is.

Pretty much agree with all of this. Though I've played Blackrock horde+alliance, and see premades on both sides. One thing I will say about alliance premades in BG9 is that 90% of them afk out when they see another premade, so that they can farm honor better. Works well for us too. They bail after a minute and we get an even more disoragnised bunch of puggies to 4/5 cap.
