I don't play a lot of Shaman, to be honest. I am well aware that Evolve Shaman is probably the best variant of the deck right now, but I figured I'd try to make something original if I were going to play the class. I haven't tested this deck on the ladder at all, but it fares pretty well against the tier lists I've played in casual. Here is the link to my current decklist. I've only just begun piloting it, but it got destroyed by its brethren Evolution, but I am not sure if that's due to simply poor draws. Thus far, its matchups seem okay against most decks.
I appreciate your feedback, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

I forgot to mention that it's standard, so no drakes sadly. Thalnos would make sense in there. I'll think about a slot for him. :) Probably just swaps out a Loot Hoarder.
Is terms of surviving, Volanco is great great clear against fast/midrange decks and Spellbreaker to clear those pesky Taunts or Edwin's. You could even put a Hex in.
I haven't played it yet but will test and you know how it goes (playing in legend dumpster).

@buildingadeck Have you tried Malygos Shaman in Wild? That's a really fun deck to play. You cycle quickly through your whole deck and then use Ancestors Call or Barnes to pull Malygos, then start flinging spells at your opponents face.
The max damage with just Reno is 20. Generally, you can keep the life totals around 20 against most decks, so it's not a true OTK, but it's as good as I could come up with.
Mana Tides are good with Thing from Below. Otherwise, they are indeed not great since they lack attack value. I like Saronite more than Feral Spirit as well, but I don't have them. I think this looks better than the version I've been playing. I'll test it out myself, swapping the Mana Tides for Gnomish Inventors. I think one Volcano and one Blood Lust is better. Blood Lust gives us an alternate route to victory aside from Leeroy.
I'd play two volcanos, novice engineer instead of gnomish inventor (more flexible), no bloodlust (you probably won't have enough board), no flametongue.
Aside from that:
You can consider adding burgly bully and something like rockbiter weapon to make the combo more ridiculous
Maybe having a second windfury helps you to find the combo earlier.
I'm going to test the engineers, but in combat they're so bad. The second Volcano makes that less relevant of course, but perhaps Loot Horders instead for the attack power.

Hey There,
I really like your idea. OTK decks are the best (and the worst) decks to play. I'd build it a little differently.
Here is my idea:
Extra draw is provided by Coldlight Oracle & Spirit Echo to recover some cad draw cards.
Is terms of surviving, Volanco is great great clear against fast/midrange decks and Spellbreaker to clear those pesky Taunts or Edwin's. You could even put a Hex in.

Check out my fun and innovative decks here:
Beat your opponent to a pulp with Revenant Warrior or outlast them with Demon Reno Warlock.
I haven't, but that sounds fun! I'll have to look into it.

I understand. It's as close as OTK as I could get it. My apologies for being misleading.

Hex might be worth it
