Game plan
Your damage is mostly from minions, so you should play for board control early by doing valuable trades and only go for face when you have fully lost board control or you can setup 2 turn lethal.
Mulligan guide
You should be looking for early game cards, such as Argent Squire, Sir Finley Mrrgglton, Tunnel Trogg, Totem Golem. If you go second, you should think about keeping Feral Spirit or Tuskarr Totemic (it depends on your other cards and opponent. I.E. vs Shaman I always keep Feral Spirit when I go second, because imo it's MVP vs this class.) Vs aggro/hybrid decks, you should keep Flame Juggler and (or) Rockbiter Weapon (Lightning Bolt if you already have a Tunnel Trogg in hand.)

S29 UPDATE
Didn't have a lot of time to play, but I'm rank 5 already, so this deck is still working pretty good. There are more Dragon Warriors this season than last, so this deck is not as good, but it's still OK. I replaced 1x Flame Juggler , 1x Argent Horserider for 2x Lightning Storm just to buff Zoo and mirror mathups, but not sure is it worth it. It weakens my already favourite matchups. You can try it out, but I think the original version is better. GL HF! ;)
S29 UPDATE #2
Just hit Legend (proof) using Aggro Shaman till rank 2 and then using Dragon Warrior to Legend just because I wanted to learn that deck. Aggro Shaman is not working as good because there are a lot of Dragon Warriors that counter this deck, but it's still OK. You can still easily hit Legend with this deck. I haven't tracked my stats this season, but I'm pretty sure it's ~60%-65% with Aggro Shaman and ~75% with Dragon Warrior.
Sorry if I've made any grammar mistakes. English is not my native language.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in comment section below. I'll try to answer them as soon as possible.
Good luck and don't forget to SMOrc! ;)
This deck still works?
Great deck, I went from rank 13 all the way to rank 19. I wasted all my dust to create this garbage deck, thank you!
For those struggling with this deck, as the author says, DON'T FORGET TO SMORC. If you go face on 9/10 attacks, your win rate will go up! Only ever trade to get rid of taunts or minions that threaten to wipe your board/ kill you.
Always thought aggro shaman ran fire elemental. Big, high-damage body which can deal with some threats to your smaller, more valuable minions like tunnel trogg and flametongue totem. Or is that just an excuse for me to use one of my favorite cards?
Total BS. I have been playing this deck for 5 days and have stayed between rank 19 and 16. No way possible to rank anywhere near legendary. This is a complete garbage deck against current meta
No way to go to legends with this deck, the stat are made up, the meta is warriors and they crush this aggro meta, you cannot have 40-60 against control, are you kidding ? :D
Amazing deck. Already gone from rank 14 to 10 and it's barely been an hour. Will update on further progress ;)
Will see that amazines :D Made it now i start laddering... will see
Could you please explain the 2 turn lethal? Thank you :)
Being playing for like 3 weeks now and try out all the classes, end it up liking shaman the best. Copy this deck yesterday and so far in a 4 game streak. Hope it last, thanks for guide and tips.
Im gonna try this deck..
Thx man
This shit is the reason why now I play in the Wild mode. Stupid kids loves decks where you don't need brains to win.
