2 piece tank one sucks. 4 piece is okay, hopefully better once they fix block a bit more. DPS ones look fine.
Before anyone freaks out, remember that nothing is final and these may be just placeholders. If you look at the other classes it's obvious that some of theirs are placeholders.

4P DPS is sexy for Arms. 4P tank is nice too. They clearly want to increase block's worth and this will help in that regard -- more blocking, in addition to more damage, will mean more threat given higher block value.

I belive that the 2pc will be needed in the new raids, i have heared that many taunts will be needed so if your taunt is on cd you will use intervene..

The 2 piece dps bonus is incredible for Fury, but meh for Arms. The 4 piece dps bonus is very nice for Arms, but crappy for Fury.

That might unfortunately be true.
The 2 piece bonus for the DK and Paladin sets also relate to their taunt/intervene-like skills.

The 4 piece tank set one looks a little weird to me. 20 sec lower CD on shield block that is on a 40s cooldown already and lasts for 10 seconds.
In effect then you would have shield block up 10s out of every 20s, or 1/2 the time guaranteed to block if you do not avoid a melee hit completely, with double block value and the possibility of a critical block.
And here I was wondering why Blizz has a hard on for itemizing warrior tank items with block value these days...

Taunt and intervene are not the same mechanic though. Sure, it's a 10% threat reduction, but that's just not enough. The other tank pieces are CD reductions for "real" taunts, and I don't think I've never used intervene in my my career as a tank. The 4P is nice, but would fit better as a 2P with a stronger 4P.
