The Battle For Gilneas battleground has a major glitch. The area to the right of the water wheel from the Alliance approach perspective, or behind the water wheel from the Horde approach perspective, has a stone wall between the water and the ground area around the waterworks flag.  On top of this wall is a health/damage/speed power-up. 

Despite its apparent solidity spells can be cast through this wall. If you use the x-ray vision trick I posted here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/22737735 you can see that this wall vanishes when you switch settings, so you can actually look right through it. 

A player can position themselves next to the water wheel at the bottom of the wall actually in the water and be unseen by enemy players, but with ranged abilities can target most of the area around the flag nearest the water.  This is essentially freecasting dps for the ranged player. 

Enemy players can return fire by using "nearest target" but it is quite difficult for them to work out exactly where you are casting from and generally only happens when you are the only player in the area. 

The advantage doesn't end there however, since the wall can be glitched into which causes a disconnect. You will then be returned, alive, to your team's starting base. Why is this important? Because the battleground is essentially decided by how fast players can move between bases, and this is the fastest method of moving between the waterworks and the lighthouse/mines. 

To glitch your way into the wall, it is best to use a teleport ability such as blink, but it can be done by all classes with a wrestling costume from the "Day Of The Dead" holiday event. Use the costume and cycle through the abilities till you get to the jump ability, this will take you through the wall. You can also use a growth glitch/mount method which requires you to mount up or use a size increase method next to the wall while disconnecting. Class teleport abilities are superior because they can be done in combat. 

Using this glitch solo you should be able to win any reasonably balanced battleground, the exception being PUG vs premade matches. In a rated battleground with multiple players using the glitch in an organized fashion it should be trivial to win regardless of the competition.
