Best Alliance Races for Preservation Evoker PvP
- Dracthyr
 
Dracthyr Racials
Because only Evokers can be Dracthyr, there are many unique racials that WoW has never seen before. This includes these powerful active spells:
 Glide reduces fall speed. Although this does not seem
    strong it can be handy in Rated Battlegrounds on maps like Arathi
    Basin.
 Tail Swipe uses your tail to knock all enemies within 6yds
    into the air. This gives you an additional way to interrupt spells or
    kite away from enemies.
 Wing Buffet is a spell that flaps your wings and knocks
    all enemies in front of you. This knock can be used to interrupt spells
    or to help kite away from enemies. It is also useful on maps like
    Blade's Edge to knock enemies off the bridge.
In addition to these active spells, Dracthyr also gets additional
Mastery from 
 Awakened.
