Hunters are incredibly Viable RBG dps and Arena dps. A hunter even won Blizzcon. Resto Druids and Rets ill give ya, but then in Arena at least they Feral and Holy. Then you have your RBG argument, and from it I can tell you never Flag Carried. Being the best flag carrier is like being the best dog poop picker upper, its a horrible job. All it is, is waiting around the base all game holding the flag waiting for either your DPS to take out their DPS then go return the flag, or their DPS to take out your dps and come to rape you, and if they get that far you are probably going to die before your DPS can rez and come wipe them off you or return the flag. Either way you spend most of the game standing around waiting while other people play.
Being the designated tank in PVP is a curse not a blessing.

If you are going to count resto as viable (which is hilarious) then both arms and fury have to count as viable (both of those specs are better off than reto druids). So I'll bump that up to 2/3 in arenas and 3/3 in RBGs for warriors, if you want to say druids have 2/3 viable specs for pvp. (Of course all of this depends on the definition of viable).
Arms does suck now. Why won't blizz at least buff our damage? We already can't move for crap. I don't even bother playing my warrior in pvp unless I'm bored and do random bgs just to beat up on lesser geared. It makes me feel better. But still in a competitive situation warriors are screwed. Maybe everyone on this thread could go on the wow forums and post suggestions like everyday until someone gets a hint. #occupypvpwarrior
I have to agree with everything, every, single, word. We're shit. Absolutely shit. Just went 1 on 1 with a mage. Terrible. Almost killed him, but no, because he's a mage, pulled a 50k shatter out of his arse. It's pathetic. PvP is horrid at the moment as arms, hell even as a warrior. Buffing our MS was a poor attempt at balance.
So boomkin is good in ONE COMP for reasons entirely outside of balance druids (UA), and they are better than arms, which is viable in MULTIPLE comps? Go look at the ladders, there are plenty of warriors. Just because you want to be as OP as locks, mages, and rogues doesn't mean you should be, just means they should be brought down. But yeah, having an ENTIRE PATCH of being the most OP spec in the game wasn't enough for you guys I guess.
This is the kind of exciting read I always look forward to when warriors are in a bad spot. History tells us that warriors are likely to be overbuffed again though. Some things never change, including the frothing at the mouth during the downtime between overpowered phases of the class (about 90% of the time between now and TBC).

Warriors viable in multiple comps? lolno. Any high rated warrior falls under the following;
1) wintraded.
2) very high mmr at the start of the season, so they fought their way to glad at 5 am vs 2k teams.
3) has their connections from previous seasons carry their class.
Also, we most certainly weren't the most op in S9. Dk's were a better warrior in every aspect. Thanks for trying though.
By "extremely strong" I mean that OP warlocks, mages, rogues, resto shamans will play with feral, instead of warrior if they have a chance.
Lol, I will never forget that match when me and my partner were dumping damage on bear form kitty, who wasn't going down for about 15sec, even after we killed his healer.
Ludicrously exaggerated, you've lost all perspective.
Warriors not getting a spot in RBGs ? Are we playing the same game ? Prot......

I know you're making the point that warriors are bad, but dont try and say hunters are good just because you're pissed, theyre just as shit as warriors in most aspects.
Limited comp choices in Arena, but far better performance for those comps. And hunters are RBG viable dps, which warriors are not. They are pretty much the best base defense you can get on the node maps, and quite good for ninja capping as well with a solid trap into monkey blind cap, they have high burst abilities they have 100% arp like Chimera Shot and solid CC abilities as well. I commonly saw hunters in RBG groups above 2.2k, I never saw an Arms warrior unless I guilt tripped a friend into letting me play it for a couple games.
Hunters are not the best pvp class, but they are not the worst, which Warriors clearly are.
