enha was never in demand for pve. (all buffs, which enh can bring are already common - BDK tank for 10% ap, and Frost for imp melee haste, take in mind that 99% of raid leaders will take dk over enh)
same sitatation in pvp, since 90% of enh shamans here are just "not so good". take a note about bugged spirit wolfs (no scaling from shamans resilence, wrong scaling with AP, low avoidance)

its fun spec to use, but it never was "in demand"

2h enhance is a real thing. Not so viable in PvE, but PvP and twinks...so gud!

On a side note everyone needs a good shaman. If that's you, roll away!

Are spirit wolved that much of a damage gain for enh shamans in pvp anyway?

Edit: as a side question, is windfury or flametongue bugged in any way?

Spirit wolves are a nice bit of burst addition, but consistent dmg is better I think. Knowing that your a shaman your already either bursty or not so its really your call. I use only windfury weapon and it proves roughly 1 in 4 which it should when glyphed. Big. Slow. Axe.

Enhancement Shamans haven't been viable in my eyes, one word:

Retaliation

Some of the funniest stuff in the game...enhance sham on a war who popped retal...gg

Dunno about pvp, but if it is for pve, go for it!
Some pugs might not prefer a enha shammy over a frost dk, but make sure you get in a good raiding guild, so you can have a core spot (as long as you are good).
In the end, you should play what you like

only a stupid enh goes 1vs1 on a warrior...they should loose 90% of the time...instead if possible you should try and kite the damn SM wielders imo

A pvper who plays enh shami to perfection should be able to beat any warrior in 1v1. It is neccesary to kite warriors in their deathzone to avoid their dmg.
