Guess what classes are going to be overplayed?

Exactly. Tanks. And more specific, Ironbreakers.
There is a poll on warhammeralliance and some of the most played classes are tanks. Why?
Because I think lots of people select their character based on what role they want to play. If you like to play tanks and you play order with your guild, there are just 2 tanks available: Ironbreaker and Swordmaster (and the swordmaster is not a classic shield and board tank). So if you want to play the knight in the shining armor, your only option is the Ironbreaker.
Chaos only have the Chosen and Black Orc with both being a classic sort of tank. Both are also going to be very popular.
Just though of that while having my coffee.

Never argue with idiots. They are immune to logic.

I think more than just a few Order folks are going to be dismayed when they see their tank options are a dwarf or a fragile looking elf. Though there will of course be people who realize the avatar matter much less than the class mechanics.
I'd say chosen and pretty much any tank ~_~
Whats up with the dwarf hate? Dwarfs ROCK !! AND THEIR MOUNT MAKES YOU GIGGLE !
If you are not accustomed to eating kiwi, go slow at first.

Nothing, my Rune Priest is rotund little beast with an epic beard.
Just being pragmatic about is all.
Bright Wizards and Shadow Warriors tend to be fairly over played as well. In RvR they tear people up and thus the fotm thing starts until some other class gets buffed.
Chosen will be the most overplayed cause they just look the best.
I always noticed DPS classes being played the most in MMOs.
Rogue from WoW anyone?
-------------------------
Its because tank are OPed right now and will be fixed . Yesterday me and another IB totaly whacked stonetrol crossing scenario , we both pulled over 40k damage and were basically at their spawm farming em . Nerf inc imo . IB + path of vengeance + 2hander + 25% increase damage tactic = severly ovverpowered .
Is there a WoW rogue like class???
Yes Witch Elf and Wich hunter but i dont seee why u would play these when u can do more damaage and take way more damage as a tank , but it will proly be fixed soon .
ahh ty, think I gonna roll a tank and see
I think 'stance dancing' will put people off Shadow Warriors.. which is fine by me as thats the class I intend ot pick.

I'm hoping this is the case as well
Lets hope there are players who DO choose to be tanks on order.
So far from what I've seen in game, order has very little tanks doing any fighting at all; as a matter of fact, there are very few order players doing in rvr fighting all together.

Eh, the way the Witch hunters work sounds most like a Rogue from WoW. Instead of combo points, WHs get accusation points, then use these to execute finishers.
They also dualwield, though its a sword and pistol combo.
Chicken's are going to be insanely overplayed.
Heh, I'm gonna roll a chicken, name him after the KFC guy
man the swordmasters look awesome, not fragile at all.
Tanks will be very much overplayed if nothing changes between now and launch.
Very OP'd at the moment. They have the AC the DPS and are actually USEFUL in PvP. What is the world coming to..
The swordmaster is a standard sword and board tank. The look of the 2h sword and robe is just that, a look. That robe is heavy armour and looks more the part later in levels and the 2h is optional... just like every other tank archetype.
