please refrain from using that list and then say these words.
People only see the list and do not understand it. And will ignore your words because the list is so easy to see.
The fact of the matter is that all Tanks are doing mythic key level of around 30 unless you are doing the literal highest keys it is not a good indication.
As you do.
The List is created using automated Data from Keystone Runs.
If a Tank is fairly overpopulated (like Prot Paladin and VDH is) it’s either: They do by far more damage then everyone else or their utility is far above others.
If Timmy clears BRH 33 as Prot Warrior it means nothing, when he’s the only one doing it (just look though Rios Top 200 and you’ll see what i mean). You’ll always have exceptional players doing crazy stuff.
Yes, you can time super High Keys as Brew/Guardian/Prot Warr/BDK, but if you can choose between one of them or the Meta, the Meta Tank will always be better and reach higher Ratings a lot faster/smoother, giving the same player skill.
Talking about myself, i facerolled my VDH to 25s, while struggling on my 11 year old Main with BiS Trinkets in 22s.
Demon Hunter. Can’t see where they are going!
They have a weakness though, 0 party utility (Darkness is RNG trash).
I’m all for being informed. So I’m always going to provide the data 
But that is not data that is what is popular.
The data would be looking at what the actual key level tanks are doing.
You are not answering the question: Is there a “bad” tank class?
By showing a popularity scale all you are doing is showing what is popular not if anything is good or bad.
The data doesn’t stop being data because you don’t like the data. That’s not quite how it works.
Subcreation provides statistical analysis of Mythic+ dungeons (via the raider.io API), Raids, and PvP in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight and provides summaries of the top talents, gear, enchants, and gems used in Mythic+ and Raids (via the Warcraft Logs API). Item and ability tooltips by Wowhead. All images copyright Blizzard Entertainment.
Subcreation updates every eight hours for top Mythic+ runs, every 24 hours for top talents, gear, enchants, and gems, for both raid and Mythic+, and every 24 hours for PvP statistics.
I love data, not the stuff people make up to try and prove a point. Actual data. Always good to know.
I don’t care how low down my Ret Paladin is on charts I will always play her. Obviously we’ve recently had a buff but we frequently aren’t top in expansions/seasons. I’m a great believer in play what you enjoy. However I’m not going to ignore where they come in Raid/M+.
The subcreation lists I shared are currently based on the runs happening from +20 to +31.
I think this has been off topic enough now.
As I said play what you want, play what you enjoy. If you are someone who can only be meta then play meta, be prepared to chop and change a lot. If you are someone who prefers a specific class play that.
Back in TBC I tried tanking some dungeons. Shaman were tankier back then. Main problem was lack of Aggro control / Taunt. The healer kept pulling mobs off me.
Probably not answering your question…
Wow you do not understand the difference do you?
you are showing a PICTURE that people will take for GOSPEL they will actually believe that a warrior is not good enough to do say a +15key because you have told them they are not strong when the reality is not that.
Tier lists DO not give acurrate information without actually looking MUCH further into it and people ARE NOT WILLING TO DO SO.
YOU KNOW THIS you have ZERO excuse here not to know this you have been around long enough that you know this.
By putting the Tier list down like you did you give a fake impression to people about what the state of the classes are.
You know these things, you should not be the one giving out and making the META or bust crowd bigger.
But i guess you believe now that it is play Meta or GTFO out of doing anything.
i know you say
But you write this in text after linking a Tier list that is WAY more prominent and no one who actually do not know about these things will read what you wrote there they will just look at the tier list and make assumptions based on falsehoods.
I shared relevant information on the current standing.
I then also gave my opinion.
Now let them make up their own mind. I’m not going to respond again about this. I will ALWAYS share data.
Even when the data has a massive chance to straight up give the wrong information to people.
And the type of data has a proven track record of giving wrong information.
I remember when Warlocks could tank with their demon form.
But yes this isn’t really answering the question.
I don’t know what is considered the easiest tank, they also have varying mobility, I’m sure survivability etc varies too.
with every major patch and expansion the classes might change with the flavor of the month. So if you want to play the best tank class you will have to check out whatever the best tanking class is whenever some balancing patch comes out
Brewmasters are the easiest tank to heal by a long way, thanks to Stagger. The problem is that most other tanks have such good self-healing (particularly VDH or BDK) and just don’t require input from a healer, rendering Brewmaster’s advantage moot at the moment. (I still get terrified at VDH or BDK yoyo health Bars though. I would take a Brewmaster in a PUG just for the steady heart rate.)
I find Blood DK quite easy to play but I don’t do group content so it’s mainly open world or running old raids for mogs and mounts.
I used to tank back in TBC and Wrath but I only played Prot Pally and Resto Shammy then. Pally does feel more involved than DK now (altough I wouldn’t say it’s particularly complicated).
The keys I do don’t really matter what the tank is. Have had them all in groups but it’s usually like the 20-24 range. Mostly just weekly 20s.
DK. Absolutely horrible to heal
Back in Nyalotha i tanked mythic wrathion as holy priest for about 4 seconds
Tried all Tanks, honestly don’t like Brewmaster… most fun I found being Warrior.
I think your autocorrect is broken 
you wrote DK with a H.
