5 ele shamans or 4 DK + holy paladin

Once I got my shaman team to full top Cata PvP gear I made a 4 DK and Holy paladin team and did the same thing.

Canceled my accounts about 2 months ago and just reactivated. I can't really play at the moment since I'm only getting 7 FPS on my current setup now (as opposed to 20 in Cata). Problem solved, ordered a new i7 3770K, 670 card, SD drive and 32 gigs of ram so I'll be ready to rock and roll by the weekend :)

Just wondering from those who have been playing since MOP released - what's more powerful now? Shamans or DKs? In Cata the DKs were the vastly more powerful team without a doubt.

5 shaman, can only do bgs and world pvp. so it will be kinda limited. DKs look fine to me. and you can do heroics also with the team. Why not break the team, 4 shaman + pally, 4DK + Resto, this way you get 2 pvp + pve teams.

There's little information yet, but a few people are doing 5s already with 4x ele + healer and doing decent. I haven't heard a word about how rets or DKs are doing at pvp at 90.

I went with 4x shaman + druid (for pve tank and to play solo as feral). I'm gearing up but will post some info this week once I start serious pvp.

I couldn't even get a queue going for 5s on US server. 20mins+ queuing time. Played mainly in 3s with 1DK 2Rets, its not really working working. I can cap points but ratings dip to around 1300.

For a DK team, I really like the interaction between Gorefiends Grasp and Relentless Winter. The cooldowns are short and lines up with Pillar of Frost, and because Relentless Winter is a magic debuff on the target, having 3 means you stun in 2 seconds.
