The use of "LOL" is never appropriate.

It adds too much randomness in my opinion and can only hope it has a hidden internal cooldown to balance things out. What do others think?

That skill seems to be the only saving grace for warrior tanks. Both ferals and prot pallies (specially pallies) got huge buffs to threat making them very viable (if not superior) to warrior tanks in Wotlk. Our only unique advantage now will be single target threat superiority with sword and board. We are no longer superior in migitation since our shield block gets nerfed. It is indeed a deep prot talent and I think it might also be something they added to make prot pvp (LOL) possible (but never viable). Dev spam for a proc so you can spam sheild slams for respectable damage and dispels.
