Just go orc warrior ! Problem solved !

Warr race PvP :

Orc > UD > Gnome > Dwarf > Elf > and rest !

While the Orc Hardness ability is great, I'd rather have something I can use actively. There's nothing I would hate more than being kited around by mages infinitely. Plus, there's an over-abundance of Orc Warriors

If anything Tauren racials and base stats would make them a much better warrior than UD because Berserker Rage does the same job as WotF.

Berserker Rage doesn't do anything for sleep, mind control or seduce. Wotf is still better to have for Warrior freedom sake than Berserker Rage alone for fear/sap/repentence/gouge.

Wotf* ^

I like taurens because of the increased stamina, +5% racial.
Also, warstomp has been quite useful over the years of playing, but it's all down to person.

Isn't the 5% just base health?

Being gnome vs mage in duel means almost nothing. A skilled mage will win 100% of the time and will still be left with big cooldowns ready. However outside of duels its a great skill to have. Also lets you get intercepts off to melee targets in duels.

Keep in mind that mages are pretty much the only class that uses roots to kite and against slows its not nearly as good since it has the cast time and spell pushback.

As a frost mage. I have a slightly tougher time with gnome warriors. At the very least, they can avoid one shatter combo. Still easy either way. Gnome will at least let you beat the bad/average mages.
