Are you kidding me? You are right, elemental shamans have been broken since LK, as in that they are absolute garbage in PvP and PvE. They are dead last on pretty much every number comparison for PVE damage wise with the exception of the firelands patch. For pvp they only were OK-ish after patch 4.2 in rbgs.

The dude in that movie is taking on some randoms in duels, that shows absolutely nothing about the state of ele. Yes ele gets a very nice defensive tool with shamanistic rage in 5.2 ... but saying they are OP and will get nerfed ... thats ridiculous, if anything ele shamans need damage output buffs for the next patch.

I did not say OP, i agree -also people always come up with this huge damage videos, probably hitting some fresh gear people.

YEAH, i'm super positive, IF you would take 10 ele shamans vs 10 demo locks. Pretty sure it would be game over for shamans, they should come up with one spell that does - insta cast - I cannot wait to level either my locks or druids. and see hows the damage output

Honestly I don't know enough about demo locks, but if you have 10 shamans, and have the 4p resto shaman pvp bonus (5s immunity for silences and kicks when you pop spiritwalkers grace), combined with the buffed lava beam (on every jump the damage increases), glyphed, and you gonna rape faces.
