Well, I don't play much 5v5, just for points. But I run 2dps in 2v2, which usually means I'm burning a target with my Spriest partner, rendering Gouge near useless. 50 energy for an ability that is often dodge, blocked and parried just isn't worth the cost in arena in my opinion. It's occasionally nice when I'm split from my teammates in 3v3 in order to wait for my kick cooldown or buy time, I just don't think it's worth the talent point investment anymore. I never get to restealth in TBC and I'm not 100-0 anyone with my cooldowns like pre-TBC and pre-resilience.
Imp Kick is nice for chaining with stuns, but it's the same argument for mages in getting Imp CS or not. Using it proactively is just better overal in my opinion.
