They're somewhat mixed. I have buttons for various combinations.
The primary drops I use are:
water: 4x mana spring or 4x healing stream
earth: tremor, strength of earth, earthbind, stoneskin
air: nature resistance, wrath of air, windfury (and need to add 1 grounding to this)
fire: totem of wrath + 3x searing (or ToW + 3x magma)
I also have a separate key to drop 4x grounding for magic based fights, and some other one-off combinations like frost resistance, poison cleansing, etc
On the UK vid I was going for the achievement to not shatter any frost tombs so I didn't drop any magma totems or fire elemental totems, but typically I would drop those throughout the fight to kill the frost tombs/adds.

Very slick!
Do you use a castrandom or castsequence macro for your DK?
If you do do you mind sharing it? My DK is having threat issues with my macro. Then again I'm opening with FS and Lavaburst.

I open with FS/Lavaburst as well, but I do give my DK about 1 second to grab aggro first (literally). I start nearly every combat by dropping a DnD directly on the mobs, then spam the following macro:
#showtooltip
/cast Rune Strike
/castsequence reset=target Icy Touch,Plague Strike,Pestilence,Blood Boil,Death Strike
Hope that helps :)

Thank You!
This really helped alot....
What is your interface called, you mentioned on anouther post about the ability to see threat. I'd like to give it a try
Oh and we have the same B-day, I'm just 3 yrs older :P

Hehe cool! Yes the addon I'm using is x-perl - by default the little threat meter is turned off, but somewhere in the config option is a checkbox for a basic threat meter - once you turn that on you get the little floaty things above each party member's health bar. I really like the feature.
I'm still waiting on other people to link me some videos of other group comps so I can link them in the main post - I know theres some DK + healer teams running heroics and video taping it - would be nice to add those in the top, and maybe some teams with a paladin tank or mixed groups!

Added a link to the first post to my video of Heroic Violet Hold - has all 7 bosses. Still uploading but should be done in 5 minutes or so :)

Added video for Heroic Azjol-Nerub tonight. Dear lord the last boss sucks. This was my first time running the instance, first two bosses were fairly easy. Last boss was a nightmare. I wiped something like 7 times before I figured out the placement I used in the video which helped a lot. The first 6 times I tried standing my shamans by the entrance of the ring, and of course all adds would aggro them immediately. Then I tried running around with them on follow and that was even more of a disaster. Placing them around the side like they are in the video allowed me to spread out so only 1 shaman would get hit with the rocks at a time, and I could pick up adds without them aggroing my shamans.
The only thing that would have made it easier is if I had individual heal keys for my shaman instead of having to use 4x chain heal every time one got spiked. Ate up my mana and I couldn't use healing stream totems because mana was a huge issue so I had to keep down mana springs. You can't see it in the video but I'm using 4x TS occasionally to regain mana.
