Hey guys,
After a long time I finally reach rank 5 and what I expect to find there? More control style decks, not that much aggro, but fool of me, that was exactly what I found. Hibrids hunters fill the ladder al along with pirate warrior, some rogue and those annoying druids with their unfair oppenings.
So I decided to fight aggro with aggro and I thought about a token version of shaman, that can fight for the board early on in the game with the tokens you generate with your hero power, the Primalfin Totem while you buff them with your Flametongue Totem, the awesome boardclear Maelstrom Portal that also give you some minions to have board presence! Also you will not run out of cards (that a common problem from tokens/aggro decks) because your Mana Tide Totem and Cult Master will do a good you refilling your hand with more stuff.
And finally have a good board and end the game with one good Bloodlust
You should at least give it a try!
P.D: If the deck get a decent amount of upvotes and the people like it I can do a more extensive guide of it! That all from now! Have fun!
I keep getting destroyed by Hunters with lots of Taunts, any tips?
zalaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D
Just went 0-3 at rank 9 with this deck :(
Any replacements for primalfin totem?
It's a 2 cost 3 health minion that will keep spawning tokens and only a rare. If you wanna do this deck it's a solid investment... hard to replace.
This is a great deck. Takes down most players with sheer amount of board coverage at all times. :)
Good deck, easiest Shaman daily of my life. The sheer amount of targets you can generate on the board make it very difficult for any decks without multiple forms of AoE early on to keep up.
I actually think this is one of the best Shaman decks on the ladder right now. I'm playing a garbage version of the deck (F2P player with little to no collection) and I'm still currently at 6-1. I'm using cards like Call in the Finishers and Knife Juggler with decent success.
Any suggestions on replacing the Jade package? I know that's a lot of removed cards but without Aya, it feels so much weaker that it's not worth including. Or do you feel the Jade cards are key to the deck's success?
From my experience with the deck so far I don't think there would be a viable replacement. The purpose of this deck is to generate as many tokens as possible so they can't prevent a OTK Bloodlust turn by value trading. The Jade mechanic gives you a card + extra token every time so it's pretty key.
Haven't tested, but my only suggestion would be maybe to try a "Deathrattle" package with Deathrattles that give you more tokens such as cards like Igneous Elemental, Infested Tauren, Devilsaur Egg, Eggnapper, and Harvest Golem. Good luck!
Interesting deck! I'll try it out. Also the title says from "R5 to legend" that means you hit legend?
Doesn't mean it's not possible. It's a good deck that can compete with murloc pally and taunt warrior. I've been playing a very similar list around rank 2 and I've had pretty good results. It seems to mostly struggle against pirate warrior.
