In my experience Shamans are better flag carriers than anyone else. The tactic I've seen used to great effect is running in, dropping a frost restance totem, grabbing the flag, dropping an earthbind totem, shifting to the ghost wolf form, and leaving everyone in their dust. Thinking back it may have been druids that have broken out of snares, and shamans can't shift out of polymorph, but with the distance they can put between you and them is amazing.

While it is not true stealth inthe way the disappear completely, the translucent swift ghost wolf form is rather hard to see in the flowing battlefield, so it is almost as good as stealth at even a little distance.

I'm going to try and get my Paladin into some more matches, but I'm not looking forward to it, maybe just standing in th flag room, making the horde think that they should have brought one more buddy will suffice.
