This deck is based around reincarnate while still having really strong minions and hard removal, also I have minimized overload to 2 cards lightning bolt and storm which takes away a lot of that shaman drawback.
The deck has many options around reincarnate like using it on Cairne, Sylvanas or any other card with deathrattle. For lethal you can leeroy + Reincarnate for 12 damage and 6 mana or 18 damage for 8 mana just like miracle rogue ;)
The reason I haven't included Rivendare is because I think it's too slow but it's ok to add him if you don't have both cairne and sylvanas same idea with ancestral spirit it's simply too slow. Same principle around windfury.
Gnomish inventors and drakes are solid drops on their own but the drawing battlecry is why they fit so well in the deck, obviously running out of steam always sucks ;)
You can also sub in Alakir for either cairne or sylvanas but is not recommended.
This deck is really good against zoo and miracle rogue if you want me to do a mulligan guide on these match ups let me know.
Here is an example of the combo, 25 damage with leeroy and only 1 reincarnate + 2 rockbitters ;)
i think adding baron in for the combo with leeroy and the other death rattles is a much needed change i would take out a sludge or a harvest for him its my oponion that would give this deck the big boost it needs in the combo's and adding ancestral healing somewhere atleast 1 would make it even better maybe replace 1 sludge and 1 harvest? and now that i noticed your faster version with them 2 added cards i am suggesting with the fast version and slow version mix with 2 loots and 2 nerubian eggs from slower version that should make this deck almost unbeatable the only thing i wish i had myself was the wind lord for a better add in i am not trying to hate on your build trying to make helpfull suggestions to make the deck better let me know what you think ty
Ahhh.. So yeah.. It definitely works haha
You're a bit harsh, people here are all at varying points in terms of mmr and will have different metas within their clusters.This version might suit his cluster better. While sludge is excellent value, it's prone to being silenced which is good and bad. Loatheb is just incredibly strong and should likely be kept in the deck if available to the player. Spectral knights are hard to remove and can help maintain board control because of that. That might not fit this deck very well, but I can see where he's coming from.
reincarnate not only work well with death rattle, but also with silenced minion or charge minion. Love this card so much.
What do you think about adding argent commander to this deck? it also work well with reincarnate.
I have replaced one fire elemental by one argent commader.
Individually, fire elemental is better. But for this deck, I think Argent is slightly better, as it has combo with rocket bitter, flame totem, and reincarnate.
made the same change. got a paladin down to four health, sitting on Fire Ele + Recincarnate but learned the hard way the game before that it doesn't trigger the ele's ability twice :-( fun deck though, plays solid and a lot of fun to combo. going to try -2 Fire Ele, +1 Argent Commander +1 Reckless Rocketeer to give it more of a combo option.
No faceless manipulator?
I really like this deck, but I was wondering if it's wise to replace the eggs with something meatier, say Deathlords? In the matches that I played I found it hard to activate them and as a result suffered in tempo. Maybe bad draws? Speaking of draws, I'd love if you could post a guide on what to mulligan. I always aim for Lightning storm and or Harvest Golem.
Thanks for the deck list, I really like this concept and hope to get better at it.
I agree with your point on Eggs, the only factor that is holding it back from it being utterly OP and needing a nerf is that it's a dead card late game if you can't activate it. But the value of the Eggs lies in the fact that you can drop it, buff it up next turn, trade into another minion and get a 4/4, that is exceptional value.
What to mulligan would probably be different for classes, and while I'm not the most experienced at Shaman, me personally, I always like Rockbiters in opening hand to deal with early threats. Against aggro, it's obvious to try for Lightning Storm(not so much when you're against slower decks like Priest). Against control, Hexes, Earth shocks are great. Overall, with the strength of this deck building on the effects of Reincarnate, I would definitely say that you probably should mulligan for it in every matchup.
Some good advice. Much appreciated.
I put Deathlord in this deck and then earth shocked it to leave me with a 2/7 or 2/8 with healing totem. Works surprising well if you also have Defender of Argus to give it taunt again and make it a 3/9
