If you plan on raiding than going Iksar is not a bad choice.
Robe > JBB If you are going to be solo/duo etc than JBB is really nice to have. Either way a fungi is good to have on any sham. Unless your sporting sexy like...

Just because it hasn't been mentioned yet: Iksars also lack Slam, which is your only real recourse for interrupting spells unless you have your dogdog, who is unreliable at best. Also, if iksars are capable of getting it, there is a lot of faction grinding required for the SoulFire. Until it's nerfed it's still a very powerful item, especially for Shamans since they are already highly efficient at solo/duo content.
When asked, I always recommend Troll for shaman race, since they get Slam, regen, high stamina, clicky snare, JBB. Besides the "Ogre Argument" that always comes up, I think this is probably the best min/max type shaman, since regen is paramount to how many buffs/debuffs/whatever you can put out, and iksars lack the other features. It's all how you want to play. Iksars get the same regen as trolls (afaik) so the mana potential is the same on raids as them, and JBB isn't going to make or break a raid. My shaman is a barbarian. It's how I played in classic, and being good-aligned is pretty undervalued. You will rarely see any other shaman race randomly buffing lowbies in Qeynos, Rivervale, Kaladim etc. Plus they are just god damned handsome, can't beat the woad/kilt combo. | ||

In all seriousness, at 56 you get paralyzing earth. With your epic and a 3 min root you can kill up to 5 or 6 at a time. Jbb isn't required whatsoever if
your mission is to hit 60. Even then the lower level roots still do the job, just require more attention to keep a timer on that root. They key thing here though is having your epic. But if you aren't iksar then clearly having a jbb is one of your most useful tools, specially in groups or some kind of duo. Races imo Ogre > Troll > Barb > Iksar, thats just me bud, but play what you love. | ||

JBB is indeed awesome for soloing.
For example, watching a non JBB shaman solo Sebilis scarabs makes me want to slit my wrists. | ||

Ogres may not appeal to your ideal body type aesthetic, but shamans can shrink anyway.
