Uh.... TSG is DK, warrior, holy pally. So, I guess their role is to cheerlead on Vent?

Shoot first, ask what the kill target was later.

Being a consistent threat is a big part of it, they can pull their burst very quickly and effectively while providing utility with totems and a little healing when the cards are down. Hex is also effective against all class combinations except teams with 2 or more classes that can dispel curses, on a 45 second CD, if they've already used their trinket and you've got an offensive healer you can usually get them the second time around when combined with another from of silence/cc, not including wind sheer. Wind sheer is of course a consistent pressure and can really mess another caster up. The only real difference in utility between Elemental and Enhancement is that Enhancement has more burst over a cooldown, whereas elemental's burst isn't as reliant on cooldowns above 30 seconds though the short term pressure is lower because of it.

Enhancement is much better for Beast Cleave actually. In Beast Cleave, an Enhancement Shaman will get a lot of benefits including:

• Roots on Frost Shock
• Wolves
• Huge melee burst
  
• Awesome survivability thanks to damage reduction talents and Shamanistic Rage
• Good sustainability. Even a Mana Burn spamming Priest cannot keep an Enhancement Shaman down.

lolwat? 10% stamina too bring us in line with the other melee since shamans have the lowest HP and 6% damage reduction via elemental warding. Am i missing something here. Shamans are squishy, especially enh Shamans. Thats why they work best in burst teams, cause once those wolves are down its over.
