Expert Analysis: Holy Paladin Blitz

Meta Analysis

This build is based on 50 of the highest-rated Holy Paladin players in Blitz, rated between 2,414 and 3,249.

This data updates as the meta shifts throughout the season.

Races & Racials

Human is the most popular race for Holy Paladin at 58%, followed by Blood Elf (22%) and Tauren (6%).

Human at 58% usage is a clear favorite, largely thanks to Will to Survive, which removes all stun effects, acting as a PvP trinket on a 3-minute cooldown.

Blood Elf players bring Arcane Torrent, which removes 1 beneficial effect from all enemies within 8 yards as an AoE purge.

Gear Strategy

The preferred secondary stats are Versatility and Mastery, with Haste as a third option. Since the item level of PvP gear scales in PvP, the real gearing decision comes down to picking the right items for these stats.

Top players are doubling up on Blessed Pango Charm for both embellishment slots.

The most popular bloodstone is Cognitive Heliotrope (32%), and the most common secondary gem is Flawless Masterful Lapis (48%).

Talent Insights

Herald of the Sun is the dominant hero talent tree for Holy Paladin in Blitz, picked by 58% of top players, with 42% on Lightsmith. The split is close enough that either tree works depending on what you're facing.

The most commonly picked PvP talents are Divine Vision (92%), Searing Glare (60%), and Spreading the Word (54%).
