I rank every tank in The War Within BETA | Mythic+

[@wierdpocket]

Honestly dude, this was the perfect ranking video. You covered every metric that’s worth covering clearly and succinctly. I give this video a 5/5.

[@danmitchman6599]

the biggest 1 for me was why blood dk wasn't top for survivability score when they are unkillable that was the biggest 1 for me

[@premiumfruits3528]

My mom cried when I was born, not because of the pain of childbirth, but because she knew she was giving birth to a brewmaster main, and knew how much he would suffer in the future and how much he would be oppressed.

[@friezeray]

as someone who only does heroic raid/+10 difficulty; brewmaster looks and feels great! :D Im sorry to my key pushing mythic clearing bretheren, you deserve better :'(

[@BillyMadison-gn1zu]

I thought brew is supposed to be good

[@ShardsOfStone]

at least your not paly xD

[@pandeomonia]

For the love of god yet again not another entire expansion where Brewmaster is absolute garbage. God I remember nearly every expansion just hating life with Brewmaster.

[@diogoazevedo8810]

Warrior having more self sustain and utility than brew... what a joke from blizz

[@Mike-cb2cr]

Every other tank streamer will now have to use this video as the benchmark cause of how damn good it is! Big thanks to giving your views from every angle of tanking!

[@dimondblade]

Brew is just my favorite tank to play followed by Blood. Still gonna play it even thought its gonna take some effort.

[@Dorki]

i don't think you'll be disappointed by brew despite the "ranking" i put it

[@Cyrsia]

I don't even play tank, still watching a dorki video :O

This format for a "ranking/tier list" is extremely good. Mad props Dorki.

[@GaireDuine]

Absolutely one of the best tier lists in this and really well thought out. It gave me good ideas on which main tank to take in first.

A deep breath from main prot pally

[@ucipitalmapilary]

not the first time 😅 kinda used to that

[@aarrondixon700]

I spent a few years on a WotLK server as a Pally main, with Prot Pally being hands down the strongest tank. Just coming back to retail for TWW. It's a weird transition to see Prot Pally go strait from hero to zero. That said, I've decided to main my warrior. I'm no masochist. My condolences to the dedicated few sticking with pally.

[@heestory0111]

Same. Decided to quit 15 years port paladin and made a Vengeance DH. I love it!

[@sarlysoon5346]

@@heestory0111 the reason i love prot pally because my friend is squishy asf hahaha, also i imagine one day blizzard would introduce dark pally. Hahaha would be cool tanking but using dark angel.

[@jacko646697]

THanks for the good work :) Your opinion on rankings is always appreciated and probably useful for the most of the playerbase thats trying to push keys.

[@andereperson5059]

Honestly this was the best Tier-list vid I've seen in a while. Very nice presentation !!

[@CarlCYuro]

This video was so informative! Loved the in depth analysis of each class and what it brings and why it's good. Thanks so much Dorki, love your streams!

[@Ifans13]

Great video and excellent ranking format. Finally a tank streamer distinguishing and highlighting the difference between skill floor and ceiling. As a mostly pugging prot pala main the use of the Sac, spellwarding , LOH and interrupts etc can massively carry groups for certain mechanics/boss fights.

[@zenith_journey]

Perfect example of what a ranking video should be. Great stuff, Dorki.

[@Gimpo925]

Lol using the failed breakdancer as your opening picture is priceless

[@Pvariety441]

Hey Dorki, thanks for the video and appreciate the formatting. Looking forward to getting back into brewmaster in tww

[@dogemans3951]

Gat damn, your tier list skills have ascended into godhood lol

[@eaberrydc]

i had been making spreadsheets to try to pick my main. a lot like this. this is a great video

[@charred6683]

Very good video, I like how you explain every point very clearly and my dumbass who always needs visual support appreciates how clear this was made. Super good idea to have 2 different rankings for organized groups vs pug, I wish more people did that with their class videos to really get the message across because these videos shape the players perspective, if there's just one ranking based on organized high keys (which most are) then random casual pugs try to copy that and it just doesn't work anywhere near as good as they think it does. With a pug ranking like you did it gives a second perspective about what could be good for them when inviting random ragnaros players to brick their key. Great elevator music too, do you have a playlist?

[@richkaiser5690]

Great video Dorki. I was stuck between Prot Warrior and Bear. I think you helped me make up my mind. Going Prot Warrior

[@arlannotness]

Thanks for thoughtful break down Dorki! Really appreciate the information you and other top tanks have been delivering. I’m supper curious how much class and dungeon tuning will change the tanks before we even get to the start of the season. I suspect we have at least one big mover and one routine loser.

[@Joel1031]

Appreciate the video, even though I'm basically going to just be playing whatever I'm forced to raid tank on in M+ for most of the season (unless catchup for alts is less awful). Love your content. :)

[@DeDoubleDizzle]

I felt the need to pause for The meme at 0:2, to laugh and appreciate all the hard work that went into that, thanks.

[@asrais186]

I love you Dorki, so i subscribed and this video finally let to this decission. Thank you for the view from every angle!

[@donovan3562]

props for defining how you are scoring at the beginning

[@wolfhc7019]

Really pumped about how Prot Warr is looking. Its been struggling for a bit but i was gonna focus on it if it was top or not. All in all i generally like how all tanks are right now, even though Prot Pal can use a bit more help.

[@XxKing64xX]

Oh I’m so glad you made this. I was sitting there half awake this morning hoping you’d make this.

[@SyonBroadcast]

Awesome vid! 🎉 Been playin' prot pally since the end of SL expac. Really enjoy it in DF and I think its gonna be fine in TWW. I still remember the pally talent tree shuffle at the beginning of DF. Right now it's not ideal but it was much worse IMO. Lotta dead talents in prot spec, which they really should iterate. Anyway, looking forward for launch :) The new Hero talents do him credit.

[@Honhyeol]

This video was amazing, keep it up Dorki!

[@snickersanyone]

Please inform the pug bears I had to play with of their survivability bc they be droppin like flies. Great video, a lot more effort than most tier lists out there and of great help when I'm arguing on Reddit pretending like i know my shit.

[@k.d4818]

Really love the format and rank categories!

[@Saimeren]

Looking good. Great run down. I basically came here to help me decide between my DK, Warrior and Druid. I played my DK in season 1, Druid in season 2 and a bit in season 3 and then Warrior more predominantly in season 3. I didn't tank at all in season 4, opting for an Enhance Shammy instead. Come TWW I'm looking to get back into tanking and was concerned with all the doom and gloom about the tank nerfs. I've been leaning toward my Blood DK, but wanted to know if the Death Strike changes impacted it enough to make it not worth playing. I typically only sit around the 2100-2300 range. I pug with 2 other buddies. We don't take the game seriously enough to push any higher, and we don't really want to. We're comfortable where we're at around the M14-16 range. So it's good to know that no matter which of my 3 chosen tanks I decide to pick, I'll be in a relatively good spot come TWW.

This is a super detailed video! Thank you for your hard work! My prot warrior will be strong 😁

[@olleh4556]

Was a good list. Dont play tank, but it was good content. As an avid pug dps, I wish paladin was a top tier tank so I could continue neglecting kicks without having the healer yell at me.

[@seriousalsa]

Thanks for the detailed breakdown!

[@sonterix]

One of the coolest ranking videos out there and I really love these categories ranking! Also, the video quality and graphics are great! Thank you!

[@anlkuyucu6825]

As a former warrior tank main, I can say it looks like a good time to come back.

[@JakeSezz]

You know those scenes in movies where someone has reached a point of no return and they have this moment of “I’m sorry; I’m too far gone and I must continue on this path”? Yeah, that’s me with Prot Pally. Can’t stop, won’t stop 😭 Great video though, Dorki!

[@MANIAKRA]

amazing breakdown, well done

[@txdmsk]

I preferred playing paladin as an off-healer. That worked really well with pugs in +20: infinite interrupts, and infinite healing. If the healer was shit and the puggers stood in every single fire, I was there to Word Of Glory the shit out of them. For example, most healers failed at the Nokhud elemental boss. With a healer prot paladin I healed more than most pug healers, lol. I remember Legion raid bosses where I was first on the heal lists (I mean, excluding self-heals, obviously). Sounds like this will not be possible anymore.

[@Kberly]

i plan to raid/m+ so i'm picking brew. i love the playstyle and movement.

[@anjohnette5639]

I'm on a mini roller coaster between tank guides from different content creators for TWW. I was 2nd guessing myself picking Druid after a Bellular guide, but after the Dorki take I'm like, don't worry man, you're fine.

Ah, at long last. 🎉 I’m only a 3.4K brew/multi tank, but man I hope some class stigma dissolves going into TWW. Prot war also largely on my mind. Such a fun spec. Finishes video: oh god no

[@RegiDD]

Only 3.4k? 😂

[@Temaer99]

Might be copium, but I think Dorki consistently underestimates Brew.....think its just not a tank he vibes with. Not saying we will be top meta pick or anything, but i think you can justify placing a bit higher in a few of these categories when used really well

[@onkek]

@@Temaer99ah sure, but getting hard denied for +18 keys for 2+ hours a day outside of pushing your own will always feel bad.

Amazing video, your ranking skill went into godmode

[@TJR123]

I really like the Skill Floor vrs Skill Ceiling. I wish DPS tiers would communicate that more clearly!

[@sakuri7465]

U forgot about a lot of utilities for brew. Like statue which is pretty usefull in some bait scenarios (like ataldazar) also his healing feels same as BDK but he got talent which transfer his overheal to HoT so he basically wont lose as much heal as DK so his solo sustain is little bit improved. Also RoP, paralysis and dispell is good for affixes, same goes for his slow from roll. Also paralysis now dispell enrage which is only second tank who can do that. Also fair is mention tiger lust which buff 3 targets rn and can dispell roots, its nice help for some situations or for entangled affix to healer so he can keep casting or have every 10 sec heal to group similiar to word of glory or chi burst, cant forget touch of death also which help to burst important targets like totems (Bracken hollow) or adds. For his deffs. With celestial build he got 2x shield with reseting brew he can have 4x stagger dispell and 4x shield. I think you understimate him too much and giving more utility to DK or warr or DH who can basically just cc, aoe stun and every 2 min sigil and silence feels so weird...

with this dragon fly and next expansion so far. I enjoy the Druid Tank for sure, self heals are crazy with about 1 minute CD if you use it the right with and that using about 2- 3 at a time , damage again also good with stacks, and all is fun and easy- hard if you use the things right
