You can actually make a Barb with a Polearm, such as eBOTD Warpike or Ghost Spear (I think that's what they are made in), but they suck. The only difference is that in BvB, the other barb with his Berserker Axe is going to have the edge. Polearms are hopelessly slow and have bad damage (usually a huge damage gap between min. and max. dam as well).
Sorry, but the one drawback in Diablo is the lack of original builds. You should really go for Berserker Axe instead of some polearm. Also, Diablo is all about frames. There are 25 frames in 1 second, and that's how your speeds are calculated, i.e. my Druid has 172%faster hit recovery, meaning that it will take him 5 frames to recover, meaning that he can recover from 5 hits in 1 second.
All of this may sound really confusing in the beginning, but if you need any help with any specific build or character that you are going to make, don't hesitate to post or PM me. I'll be glad to explain the nuances of Diablo to you.
