Priest PVP racials

[gitcho]

I want to start a 5box PVP shadow priest alliance team and am scratching my head going over which race to choose. Nothing jumps out at me except night elf shadowmeld. Is this any good for PVP? is there any reason to chose another race?

Wouldn't mind hearing from some PVP priest boxers on their experience...

Most of the priest racials are now available to all of the priests.
The non-priest racials of the race still vary, but things like Devouring Plague, Fear Ward and Symbol of Hope are available to all of the priests irregardless of race.

Shadowmeld will be of most help in world/battleground pvp. You are immobile in arena so its not the best there. Doesn't hurt to have.
I really like that humans have the pvp trinket as their racial now, and effectively perception always on. You basically get to equip/use two trinkets instead of one plus the pvp trinket.
Dwarf stoneform ends bleed effects.
Not sure if gnomes can be priests but the escape skill is very good in pvp.
Draenei get you the HoT, but with a cast time.. and priests already have renew which is strong; not my top choice for a priest race.

One of my teams is 4x Disc priests. A pain to level, compared to higher dps toons, but I think they'll be fun in battlegrounds (I'm on a carebear server).
I went human as my race.

If i EVER rolled an alliance priest it for sure would be a dwarf one!

Stoneform is have made dwarf priests the best priests for ages even if they had to meet UD rogues.

Priests cant remove poison and that what makes them vurnable against rogues.

Consider the amounts of classes that have bleeds,poison and diseases, not to SPEAK of deathknights even thought you can counter them with abolish diseas stoneform removes ALL at once!

The crazy thing is that you get immune vs bleed,poison and diseasfor 8 seconds!

stoneform is great, but I don't see how it really helps you when you're 5-boxing.

Bloodelf would probably be the best.
