Perception created by the numbers. How about you quote the rest of the Blue post?
If all players see are Prot Warriors they start rolling Prot over other specs and it snowballs from there.
Blizz doesn’t need you to protect against anything. They will or won’t nerf things based on their own data.
The playstyle for Prot is set. They were lucky to get a full rework in the middle of the expansion which never happens so none of that will change. It will be numbers tuning so if you really just care about the gameplay there’s no reason to worry but we all know that’s not what you this is about.
