I play a Paladin in PvP (The World of Warcraft Armory).

I do 5s and 3s with an Enhancement Shaman teammate (The World of Warcraft Armory).

Our 5s is: Warrior - Paladin - Disc Priest - Elemental Shaman - Enh Shaman.

Obviously, the strategy would be to keep high dps up, with multiple BLs, get something low then use a PI+NS+Cl and hope something dies. Our 5s isnt a failure, but its certainly getting frustrating, we should be in the 1900s, if not for 3 stupid losses yesterday. We cant control games once they start playing defensively as we have no true CC. This is a failure in team design I think, and as a paladin, I'd rather be running a frost mage in his spot, at least against and 3 healer team, or caster heavy teams.

I think the flaws of Enh Shaman are a lack of mobility, lack of defensive abilities, and vulnerability to mana burn. Looking at Push's team, I'd say their success lies in their ability to control the other team, and given the nature of a 4 dps team, the somewhat shorter length of the matches.

On a happier note, my guild has a great Enh shaman who is now in the top 10 3v3 teams on Rampage, playing Warlock/Druid/Shaman. The World of Warcraft Armory

EDIT: 3s, Warrior - Enhancement Shaman - Paladin. It has worked, and we have had it as high as 1830, but no one really seems to care. The rating tanked after the other members of the team tried Elemental - Enhancement - Paladin. Dont do that.
