Hey there,
I’m Theo, a High Legend player with 5x a top 100 finish including a #15 finish on EU in January. That finish was achieved by using this Control Shaman list. As the meta is very aggressive, this is a great deck to counter any aggro deck.
Here are my stats to show how good it is versus aggro:

Just made legend for the first time with this. Thanks, this deck is awesome. My only change was Bloodlust instead of one Lightning Storm. Storm is not super good vs Pirate Warrior, and Bloodlust saved me dozens of times against slower decks. I even won like 10 games playing Bloodlust with 1-2 minions on board.
Awesome deck, buddy! I'm fed up with the cancerous meta, so this is exactly what I was looking for, and it works wonders ^_^
I love this deck, it's loads of fun to play against the current Aggro meta. Now I just want to know, I'm having some struggles against Dragon Priests. Do you have any tips for beating them?
Against priests you want to be patient to get a lot of value out of you aoe cards and Devolve. Try to clear their board first this way, then play your own big minions, so they can't trade efficiently and heal their minions.
Awesome tip, thanks alot!!
Replacement for maelstrom portal? I havnt ONIK.
Thank you
Nothing can really replace it, but maybe Lightning Bolt fills the same job for having some early removal.
This might be quicker to climb than aggro decks because you can just auto-concede against warlocks.
Not true anymore because almost every warlock I faced this season was zoo, which is a good matchup.
What the deck author said, climbed past 8 now and I've run into nothing but aggro locks, though I do wonder if there is anything that can be done to beat Renolocks.
0-8 warlocks, lol. Will try it.
Eternal Sentinel for Lava Shock okay?
If you don't have lava shock, I guess you could consider replacing it with Eternal Sentinel. However, I would never drop Lava Shock if you do have the card.
cool deck man!
This deck is auto-loss against reno lock...evolve shaman is much better (and more fun) imo.
Every deck has its weak points, and the aggro matchups compensate for that. Maybe Evolve Shaman is more fun, but it definitely wasn't better as I haven't seen any of them in high legend.
As well as putting 80% WR vs aggro, it would be wise to put the stats vs other decks.
It's sad when a player crafts the deck and go vs all non-aggro decks and gets a lose streak.
I've provided the stats though for every matchup in a screenshot.
link didn't appear yesterday. That's why i asked. Thx!!
Strange, because it was there since I posted this guide.
