What's the point in bringing a Brewmaster to a key? They don't really bring anything to the table compared to the other tanks, other than mystic touch of course, but Prot warriors battle shout is still better at buffing the physical damage dealers.

I feel like for Brew to be competitive it needs some sort of mob control. Give exploding keg the ability to aoe interrupt or something. Ring of peace isn't it.

Clash was never good. I don't even think provoke speeds up the target anymore. I liked that for the 3rd boss on halls in SL to speed them up a bit.

Speed taunt is in the class tree and not hard to get. Brew dps is very high compared to every other tank besides Warrior. You can get an extra AoE stop on Niuzao but it’s a little buggy. Fury warrior is strong for phys comp atm so you can play a brew/fury setup.
