It's almost certainly because at this point there is so much knowledge about the game that people go the min/max route.
Ogres are definitely the best race for Warriors from that perspective. They get frontal stun immunity, which is big for tanks, and their stats are easily the best, which is important for Warriors since they are so much more gear dependent than other tanks. Trolls get regen, which is of course helpful. That's not to say that Barbarians are unviable as tanks by any means. They're definitely a decent choice. But a lot of people pick Ogres for the reasons above. | ||

Ogres make the best tanks in classic, bar none. FSI, and starting stats. In later expansions, stats can get maxed for nearly any character, but FSI is still very much valued. Iksar are next on the list for best tank, especially for Velious when they actually have options to wear plate armor. Their natural regen, and their racial AC bonus that is stacked on top even after reaching AC cap per level. | |||
