Fury Warrior PvP Guide — The War Within (11.0.5)
This guide will walk you through everything you need to know to play Fury Warrior in a PvP environment. The guide will cover everything from talent choices, PvP talents, gameplay and rotation, and useful racial bonuses. It is most applicable to Arena content, but most talents and racial bonuses will work in Rated Battlegrounds and skirmishes.

Fury Warriors in the Current Meta
Fury Warrior takes on the style of playing very aggressively, attempting to end the game as quickly as possible through decimating damage output and Slaughterhouse, capable of doing some of the strongest single-target pressure in the game. Fury Warrior does not bring a whole lot of utility but still has key abilities, such as Intervene and Disarm.
Fury Warrior is envisioned to be one of the strongest melees in the first season of The War Within, and is a solid pick to choose.
Changes in Patch 11.0.5
Overwhelming Blades got nerfed and is now capped at 10 stacks instead of 12.
Raging Blow got a 25% damage increase
Bloodthirst got a 30% damage increase
Changes in The War Within
The majority of abilities and talents are the same as in Dragonflight, but the Hero Talents Mountain Thane and Slayer have been added.
Bladestorm is back in the Fury Warrior kit and is a strong addition for dodging CC.
