This is the deck Noxious used to grind to legend and featured on "DECK TALK Ep. 06
The idea of the deck is to control the board while steadily reducing your opponents life. The end game options for the deck are Sea Giants to just force your way to victory, or Bloodlust to burst your opponent down.
Check out the Episode of Deck talk where Noxious breaks the deck down.
I'm doing pretty well with the idea of this deck, I'm use 2 rockbitter with doomhammer instead of the two Zombie Chow and Bloodmage Thalnos, my winrate is good, from level 19 to 11
"The idea of the deck is to control the board while steadily reducing your opponents life"
You mean every deck?
Yeah but the goal of every deck is to make sure that your opponent doesn't overwhelm you with their board, so actually every decks goal is to control the board in their own way. It's not like when someone plays an aggro deck they don't control the board. In fact they control the board with their own aggression. They force their opponent to trade down, and or waste removal on things they would rather use them on. And even burst decks like PyroMage, or Miracle, all have some amount of board control to them, they don't necessarily steadily reduce your opponent down to 0 over the course of the game, but they do steadily reduce them to the point when they CAN burst for the win. Very rarely is their a perfect scenario where you can do 30 points or more of damage in one turn. So to sum it up:
Yes every deck does this
Been playing this for a bit and it has been going well. Usually only lose in close matches or due to small misplays. I do not feel that any deck has a huge advantage against this deck. Hunters are definitely the biggest threat. My decklist is the same except I swapped out Bloodmage for a Earthern Ring Farseer due to budget reasons.
Starting at rank 17, here are my results so far:
16-8
Wins:
2 Handlock Warlock
4 Zoo Lock
2 Pally
2 Shaman
3 Druid
3 Huntard
Losses:
5 Huntard
1 Druid
1 Priest
1 Handlock Warlock
I really want to try this but am worried it is some elaborate prank to get me to waste 800 dust on Sea Giants.
don't craft them if you have more important cards to craft.
what's a good replacement for bloodmage thainos?
Well it depends on what you like to focus.
If you're going to replace Bloodmage Thalnos you want to replace it for something that fits the manacurve, so also a 2 drop.
If you want to benefit of the early game extra spell damage replace it with Kobold Geomancer.
If you like the card draw you could go for Loot Hoarder card draw on deathrattle like Thalnos or go for Novice Engineer wich has guaranteed card draw so silences wont make a difference.
I am feeling quite uncomfortable with [card]Zombie Chow[/card]. Amy suggestions for a replacement?
I know that feeling many times it coming out in the end game have been just so horrible, however in early game its ungodly in terms of tempo.
Is this one better than traditional shaman with doomhammer/al'akir + rockbiter?
i feel like the traditional control shammy is more consistent than this deck but this one is no doubt more fun to play and is definitely viable to play as far as ladder goes. i would love to see this pop up in a tournament it would throw people off for sure.
Anyone could assist me in making my shaman deck better,

I think that this could be a good place to let people know about my deck. I just want help from people please.
i wanna make a shaman deck that can answer to everything.
(sry Thechiv for asking people for help through your deck. you could maybe help me too :)
thanks everyone.
p.s. this deck is good, just not a deck from noxious
There's a small typo in the title I noticed you should get taken care of. This is RECKFUL's Sea Giant deck, card for card.
That's nice of you and Noxious for trying to give it more attention and everything tho
From what rank did he take this deck to legend?
Ok so after testing in unranked casual, this is what I faced. Two druids(at least one ramp), warrior(aggro), priest, freeze mage, miracle rogue, cancer rogue, and aggro paladin. 5-3 in those matchups(losses were to ramp druid, miracle rogue b/c of two blade flurries and saps, and freeze mage). Not sure how it fares against hunters, but I don't feel great looking at the cards. Until it gets nerfed, hunter is simply the best class for laddering right now. This however, was a nice fun original deck and I enjoyed playing it. I would like to mention that not a single time in any of those wins did I get to use bloodlust :(
Lol, I'm pretty sure Reckful came up with this deck.
Im pretty sure I got my ass handed to me by a variant of this deck like week 1 of naxx in testing...thats more then a month..
It's the same exact deck card by card. He did end up removing an Azure Drake for Loatheb later on but, this is the original deck he put together and the original is older than a month if I re-call. If anything, it's just pure coincidence.
august 21st is the first time recorded, that reckful used that combination. I know I looked it up. However in my search I found something else. http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/78681-chinese-sea-giant-decklist-shaman Predates all of them thus again. Claiming some one owns a deck design cause you saw it on a stream is about as ignorant as saying you are bombing for peace. Fact is Hearthstone has a massively limited card pool. I used to think that the deck creators should get credit not the streamers who copied it, but then after a lot of time spent with these streamers and talking to them, the reality is none of them have time to read other people's ideas, or watch their stream. They are all too busy trying to get their own slice of the pie. And thats a full time job. However no matter how much proof or logic you apply to any scenario, Fan boys will never relent. Either way Im cool with it as it comes with the territory.
