What build after the Nerf Bat ?
Yea but the thing is we skill have zerker stance against heavy condi dmg dealers . Cleansing ire is not that important , considering it’s extremly easy to dodge earthshaker and nobody will use LB on a power build . And you won’t be able to cleanse if you don’t land it :S

Here is what I run and will keep running
Power HGH warrior.
I regain the damage I lose with Soldier’s Amulet with the stacks I get from might. You can maintain 20 stacks of might without too much effort, especially in group fights.
It has good AoE, and even condition damage is cool (you reach 1000 by the time you get at 20 stacks). Point-blank Fan of Fire can be really deadly.
It has the problem most warrior builds with little cc have: in open field your attacks are easily avoidable… but you are gonna fight in tight spaces.
I tried with berserker’s amulet, and IMHO you deal less damage just because you’ll go down in no time if you get focused.
I usually join team queue alone, and IMHO I’m doing decently (I win often enough, and I’m usually first in my team…. I’m a roamer, not a big surprise, but that means I’m doing my job, right?)
because he doesn’t know it himself
Fist – Fist/Forehead 30/30/30/30/30
Still sticking to my hammer/mace-shield with 0/20/0/20/30
and soldiers amulet.
That build was never meant to do damage from the start
but relies on cc and timed interrupts to secure wins in small teamfights.
It’s obvious now that the Hambow build got pretty much destroyed
Maybe for the baddies but hammer will still be strong. -20% base damage is nothing.
I used mace\shield n hammer for a while but the dmg was pathetic . LB is extremly OP in a power build w\o the nerf . Now they nerfed it in the power spec but buffed in condi . And yes warrior was considered OP because of the dmg output with UF trait+LB and earthshaker , Those who were crying about chain -stun were just bad , a pure CC spec is useless in tpvp , you need to do dmg or pure bunker .
