The Battle for Gilneas Battleground Blitz Guide
A retail WoW Blitz map guide covering win condition, opening plan, and the mistakes that lose games.
Win condition
First team to 1500 resources. 3 bases only: Lighthouse (LH), Waterworks (WW), and Mine. Hold any 2 to win. Your home (LH or Mine) is free at open.
Primary objective
Hold 2 of the 3 bases. Your home is free at open - take any second base to get on the board.
Opening focus
Comp check at open. 1 home defender, mobile floaters, rest Waterworks. Assign Rogues, Hunters, Druids, and other mobile specs as floaters.
Common mistake
Full Waterworks stack with no floater plan against a stealth-heavy comp.
Remember these
- 2-Base Win - 3 bases only; hold any 2.
- Spin First - On a sat base, spin and live as long as possible. Kills are a bonus - spinning > killing. Keep Shadow Sight and BlitzFramesTargets up; call early so floaters arrive.
- Floater Plan - Assign Rogues, Hunters, Druids, and other mobile specs as floaters. Scale up with enemy stealth; answer incs whenever they come.
