A worse match up for my dk + 4 rets is a 40k hp prot warrior who AOE stun me while I can't do anything against him.

Back to be realistic, for Elemental Shaman, it is all about the grounding totem. If your Chain of Ice or DG got eaten by grounding, you can forget it. He will get away. Prepare to dispel flame shock and setup your chain dispel on all 5. Spam dispel when he drops earthbind.


As for sticking to the elemental shaman, I think if you don't CC the healers, shaman can just stand there and take your beating, and you wouldn't be able to take him down. That is with equal PVP gear. So try to repen the healer, try to buy enough time to bring the shaman low enough. There are 3 possible cases after that.

1. Healers trinket the repen and cast some kind of long heal

2. Healers have trinket on CD.

3. Healers trinket the repen, use BOP, instant big heal.


In case 1 and 2, the elemental shaman will likely die. In case 3, he would not. So for case 3, you can hope to see if you live through 1min repen CD.

OR

AOE frozen CC whoever is in your melee range, go for the healers.
