Greetings, friend! Here is my Undead Shaman deck, which is a very special kind of reincarnate shaman.

 

Gameplay

The early game is very similar to pre-naxx midrange shaman decks, except the deck has no Flametongue Totem and no common 4 drops. Do your best to have and keep control of the board, this deck shines once you get to later turns in a decent position.

This deck's late game resolves around Sylvanas Windrunner Cairne Bloodhoof Leeroy Jenkins shenanigans like other similar decks, but also on getting at least one Thaddius out. Once either Feugen or Stalagg has been killed, play the other and reincarnate it for a 2 mana Thaddius! Add to that any Ancestral Spirit / Baron Rivendare shenanigans and you're in for a treat. Keep in mind that playing Feugen / Stalagg after the other was killed will dissuade your opponents to perform a board clear (as they'll face an 11/11 if they do). If your opponents silence the one that will spawn you a Thaddius, don't hesitate to use Ancestral Spirit and/or Reincarnate to give it another try - chances are he most likely does not have a second silence and/or cannot deal with Thaddius. On the other hand, if you have a better use of Reincarnate (such as Sylvanas Windrunner to steal a minion or Leeroy Jenkins when close to lethal) then obviously the better choice is to keep it.

Ideally, you want to play like a standard midrange shaman until your combo pieces assemble in your hand. The lack of 4 drops is to make sure the use of overload cards such as Lightning Storm and Feral Spirit doesn't hurt your curve too much.

 

Alternatives

The following cards can be great fun and decide a game, but can also hurt consistancy at times. Feel free to replace them if you want to rank up and think they make the deck less competitive!

1 Ancestral Spirit Leeroy Jenkins Baron Rivendare Kel'Thuzad Deathwing

 

Edits

8/14/2014 : -2 Flametongue Totem -2 Nerubian Egg +2 Unbound Elemental +2 Stormforged Axe

(Better early game, less conditional)

8/14/2014 : -1 Stormforged Axe +1 Deathlord

(2 axes makes you die too fast, the deck needs more taunt)

 8/20/2014 : -1 Stormforged Axe + 1 Kel'Thuzad

(Makes the deck a bit weaker against aggressive starts but far more hilarious in the late game)

 8/27/2014 : -2 Fire Elemental + 2 Sunfury Protector

(As much as I love Fire Eles, I felt the deck much needed taunt givers that force your opponent to trade when he doesn't wish to and that can also be played on turn 2 for a better early game)

9/6/2014 : - 1 Deathlord - 2 Azure Drake + 1 Deathwing + 2 Sludge Belcher

(After some extensive testing, I find Sludge Belcher more fitting than Azure Drake here. Deathlord outright lost me too many games, while Deathwing works well with deathrattles, Ancestral Spirit -especially when on Kel'Thuzad - , the Thaddius brothers and the lack of card draw. Deathwing can also save you from small unusable hands and is generally very fun to play.)
