Its if the person wants to take the time to learn to make the class they play viable.
People said Ret Pallys BC where crap, proven wrong. People said Warriors are crap in Cata, proven wrong. People say this and that and never really "try" to be good. Their only real skill is complaining.
Will Barbs be viable? Hell yes. They are the strongest atm imo.
Will other classes possibly rule over the barb? My god if you think not...DUMB!
While I think barbs will kick some ass, I can't help but to think back to when i went to the 2011 blizzcon and played a wizard at their pvp area. Ofc balancing has happened since, but at that time I had aout 46 kills / 5 deaths compared to the second top player who had 19 kills. I played against a barb / monk / DH / wizard. They couldn't touch me =D
Staying alive is the number one consideration in PvP, and barbs do have an upper hand in this area. I would say 4 though, not 5, since a faster attack from a wiz or dh could still take them out.
Much of it depends on the format of the PvP arenas too. How much of the environment is available for LoS and duck and cover factors in.
Let say 400k ranged dps vs 100k hp barb - if someone really think that melee class can stand a chance must be naive or just dumb ;). I like even more all those comments about skill and builds - wrong game dude it's all about gear and $$$ at end.

Are you factoring damage mitigation in, or are you just making a simplistic analysis "derp I have 400k dps, you have 100k hp ,you die" ?
Are you ? we dont know how it's going to work yet so my statement can be as true as yours. So far we know that such absurd numbers can already exist and i'll take bazooka over sword in battlefield every time.

I'm already planning on marketing myself as a bazooka-for-hire once PVP hits.

What will you do when you face a ranged barb with more dps then you, and more ehp ?

What are you talking about?
What you said makes no sense. Just because you have 400k character sheet dps, and the other guy has 100k HP, it doesn't mean you're going to one-shot him. He could have 10k armour and 900 res all, and your DPS would be down to a trickle.
Math is hard......
Maka is right. Mitigation is a powerful thing. It makes me wonder why so many @ Bnet forums were crying about Monks and Barbs getting that +30% dmg reduction? Some questions shouldn't be asked lest we make fools of ourselves.

No man is sane who does not know how to be insane on proper occasions.
...Really, running cunts? Newbie?
Sheesh, reminds of the idiots in D2 public games that played barbs that would always cry about ranged classes maintaining breathing/attacking range.
Its not running... Running means you want to escape. You can't expect a ranged class to sit in one spot so you can chop away.
Also, I can't wait to get ground stomped.
