Prot Spec PvPFollow

Alright, I finally went Prot spec'd due to the huge lack of tanks in my guild. So I have a few questions, first, how would a nicely skilled Prot Warrior fare in PvP? I've watched a few videos, and we don't seem to do too bad. If we're totally useless, I'll mess around with the talent calculator and see what I can come up with, since I plan on PvP'ing heavily and doing a lot of instances.

Also, in PvP, should I still whip out my big bad two hander, or stick with sword and board to optimize my spec and so I can use for SS?

Thanks!

Prot pvp may suck at first, but you always have a place in AV.
Then if you can get yourself geared out in epics, people will really have a hard time killing you, you wont be doing great damage but you will be able to survive for a very long time. This also makes you an idela flag carrier in WSG/EOTS. so in short there is still a place for prot in pvp.

Alternatively you could try an arms/prot hybrid spec, which should make you more viable in pvp, aswell as pve dps.

I personally am currently using 35/5/21

This build I find covers the main tanking talents, whilst leaving dps and pvp still a viable option.
