The Gossip ColumnEnhancement Shamans Start Two-Shotting Duelists Ahead of the $100k Forever Open
Windfury procs and the new 'Rage of the Storm' 2H mace delete duelists in two hits, crowning Enhancement Shamans early tournament terrors.
The dirt circles outside Orgrimmar have turned into absolute slaughterhouses. Streamer clips setting tavern talk ablaze show Kalvish controlling spacing perfectly—right up until the Shaman closed the gap and erased him from existence—while veteran gladiator Graycen was dropped in literally two swings, gasping "What the f\\\?"* as his health bar vaporized.
The culprit? The devastating new two-handed mace "Rage of the Storm," paired with lottery-ticket Windfury crits. With contenders scrambling to finalize brackets for the upcoming $100,000 Forever Open, duelists are suddenly asking whether Enhancement Shaman has leapfrogged the entire meta to become the odds-on tournament favorite.
