Proof of Legend Here
Aggro Shaman is with out a doubt one of the strongest decks in the game but many people play it wrong. I think I can offer what I have learned from my climb to #1 and of course do a little bragging :).
Many people see a 1 drop and keep it because it's cheap. But it's important to mulligan for specific one drops that are good in your match-up and don't forget that other cards like totem golem, jade claws, and flame wreathed faceless are easily game winning and should be kept in some match-ups.
Southsea Deckhand is a one drop that does summon Patches the Pirate so you would think it would be great, but If you summon it on turn 1 against another pirate deck then all they have to do is play a pirate and trade in their Patches the Pirate and you're left with a mere 1/1 on the board and your opponent has the tempo.
Southsea can be kept in combination with Spirit Claws and Jade Claws to take advantage of the charge and it can be kept against reno decks if you have Flametongue Totem for the purpose of countering Doomsayer.. If you play Southsea Deckhand on turn 1 and then they play Doomsayer, Flametongue Totem enables you to kill it.
A 4 mana 7/7 turns out is pretty good. Especially against the classes that hae a hard time dealing with it. Renolock has only Blastcrystal Potion, druid has only Mulch and the occassional Naturalize, renopriest only has Shadow Word: Death, renomage has only Polymorph.
However doing nothing until turn 4 is not going to be good enough to win most games so it's important to realize when the perfect dream curve isn't going to work out and you need to try for 1 drops.
It's also important to realize that this card can completely lose you the game in some matchups. for example versus rogue they can play a minion and Preparation Sap and now they have the board and you're overloaded for 2 mana.
I'll go more in depth If the deck gets enough attention :)
Sup guys, I have been playing similar aggro shamans for quite a while so I decided to show some footage of it. Imo you can learn some basics about it, although I am not sure about everything and there are still questions that I am not able to answer and I wonder if someone can (mostly about the 7/7 in mirror matchups + pirate warriors etc.)
Thank you for watching ! Consider liking or upvoting or even subscribing if u liked it :)
See ya
ultra op deck and the best thing about it is you dont have to have a brain to play it :)
Been facing quite a lot of Miracle Rogues around rank 10, so I -1 Maelstrom Portal +1 Devolve.
I'll let you guys know my results later, but seems to be more flexible than maelstrom portal for the same cost. It might untaunt your opponent for lethal as well.
I'm 4/12 with this deck and I just can't make it work :-(
Any replacements for Patches the Pirate ?
Where the F is Tinkmaster Overspark? Turn t1 patches plus turn 2 coin into a 5/5 Devilsaur? Yes please - Sick.
is it a good idea to keep 2 weapons, Jade claws + Spirit Claws?
i guess no
- Azure Drake + Aya Blackpaw
Are you sure that 2x azure drake is better than azure + aya blackpaw?

TOP DECK
new season and results are 20 mins from rank 19 to 13....
I love control decks , but shaman is full of cancer.
GG start laddering guys
bullshit
WTF bro, [card]Sir Finley Mrrgglton[/card] is a great card.
Wow, man that sucks, he's a great card and will see play in wild probably for years. Worth keeping even if he's rotating out soon.
you could put second portal and you will be fine.
Mulligan guide?
He means on turn 4. Siphon costs 6 mana so the only answer a lock could have on turn 4 would be the potion.
Sweetest cncer deck! Im on rank 5 now, losing only reno-decks and sometimes when bad mulligan happens to dragon-priest and dat shit. I think Sir Finley Mrrgglton dont needed here. U can replace it with 2nd Maelstrrm Portal like me or Lightning Storm, Manatide Totem seemsgood there too. And i think -Azure Drake +Aya Blackpaw can win u a game sometimes.
