I started WoW not long ago, and I mostly see warriors being own by a paladin. So I asked some people and they said warriors are better. Thus, can anyone with great experience tell me which is better? Thanks in advance.

Paladins can easily beat Warriors because part of their damage is Holy, which can go through the Warriors' high armor.

On the other hand, a Warrior is very good at defeating a Priest because they are immune to fear. Whereas a Paladin can easily be defeated by a Priest because the Priest can drain his or her mana, and then the Paladin cannot use his or her skills.

It really depends on what you want your character to do. If you want to dual wield two-handed weapons then pick a Warrior. If you want to be able to cast buffs on other people (e.g. hand of freedom, hand of protection) then play a Paladin.

Personally, I prefer a Paladin because of their Crusader Aura. It allows you to travel on your mount faster than any other class. It makes questing quicker, gathering quicker, and gives you an advantage in PvP Battlegrounds.

Hope I helped!

Too many variables? Better for what? Pve tanking, pve dps, pvp?

But in general, wow balance is constantly switching back and forth between all the classes where one gets stupidly powerful one patch and nerfed into oblivion the next.

Your best option is to play the one you enjoy more.

I play both classes and I enjoy warrior more personally, and I have no problem with beating pallies in pvp as long as you understand how both classes work and aren't vastly outgeared.
