I see people trashing the new mace spec but i love it, if you are DW maces rage comes in by the bucket fulls, and with sudden death you are Executing like crazy. I do not see any problem with that
Thoughts ?

Sudden Death sucks in general. It might sound cool to be able to execute almost whenever you want during a boss fight, but in reality Execute has a very low damage per rage ration, and it does not scale. The biggest issue, though, is that it consumes all your extra rage. Execute as a base ability is very efficient, if you use it at the minimum cost. Executing with more than 15 rage, however, is a huge waste of rage, starving you and messing with your ability rotation.
It's really more of a burst-DPS talent, most suitable for PvP (where a big execute at 50% may win a fight), but in reality, in arena, rage is even harder to come by, and you may not want to execute for fear of not having enough rage reapply mortal strike.
All that said, if you're really wanting to try out a Sudden Death build, I think axe spec is a better choice than mace. I do not know if mace stuns still have an internal cooldown, but 5% more crit means that Sudden Death will proc that much more often. Right now, mace spec in general just sucks. 10 rage every 6 seconds, if you're lucky, pales in comparison to another white hit (that could crit) or 5% crit,
and
5% more damage on all your crits.

Sudden Death=fail
New MAce speC=epic fail
New new mace spec = Increased armor penetration:
- Mace Specialization: This will grant armor penetration when using a mace. (The warrior talent will as well.)
