With something more awesome. Dual Wield Shields. Tank with THREE SWORDS. Something other than “I Block or Die”. It’s so boring to watch, play and being the only tank with minimal self heals and no magic is lame, imo.

You’ve obviously never seen us run and jump. We’re plenty magical.

Three swords. So they dual wield… Ok.
How do they hold the third sword? (( I was afraid to ask at first ))

Hold with our toes and hop on one leg.
We have space for a fourth and fifth within our beards.

If only there were several other tanks to play…
Certainly an opinion. Might be boring to watch (a lot of WOW is boring to watch), hard disagree with the rest of this statement.
Not every tank needs to have self-sustain though. Not sure what I would change for Prot tbh. I still think having to choose between Bolster and Anger Management is a bridge too far.
Two in hands, one in MOWFF.

Prot Warrior is a combination of Doomguy and Lingering Will so I will always approve of them in that way.
My Warrior is a Worgen, and I love the idea of my Warrior just completely worgin’ out when its worgin’ time. A completely unstoppable killing machine charging and leaping around the battlefield like a maniac.
So good. The fantasy is just S-Tier.

Fantasy-Wise? Agreed, S-Tier. The idea of Warriors going Full Doomslayer on the horrors that we face in-game is Astounding. I would love to see some Rip and Tear visuals added to Warriors animation kit.
Gameplay-wise? It’s just so dull to me. Everything about it is just so bland.
I know you aren’t supposed to bring up FF14 around here, but they got Warrior right, imo. It looks like it hits like a truck and it Does. Easily keeps up with the dps and even has amazing self heals to boot. Just solid.

The deadliest blade in the game. 
Also, BFA prot war was personally my favorite iteration of tank that has ever existed in the history of wow.
Prot Warrior has the unfortunate designation of being the “Mario” of tanks in the common person’s ideas and Blizzard tries to keep it in that lane, even if the reality is that isn’t really the case (Prot Warrior is NOT an “all-around” kit whatsoever, its very much heavily skewed towards physical mitigation and with a high focus on mobility while having some of the least self-sustain of any tank).
Reprisal is a lot of fun though and I would be very, VERY surprised if Reprisal didn’t become a talent in DF since its literally the only thing keeping the class semi-relevant.

There are warriors whose entire identity is “i’m just a regular joe!..that fights gods”
And that is a cool idea. I’m 100% down for that. The Dark Souls franchise was built on that concept. But the swordplay in those games is impactful. Warriors is just “Auto Attack. Block. Stomp.” Maybe a limp Revenge bonk every once in a while.
IMO it’s not cool at all. That warriors are a physically magical race is exactly what I want.
