Ever since Rastakhan's Rumble, I've been looking to craft Even Shaman in Wild. I've always put it off under the logic of "New expansion" or "Nerfs coming". I just can't seem to bring up the courage to dust some other cards and just craft a deck. Should I just craft the deck? I feel so indecisive.
Update: I decided to craft it and going on a strong 62% winrate and near rank 10.
can't really say much for even shaman any more. I played wild a bit last year and the deck was good then.
shaman has some cool stuff in standard right now though. lots of ways to build decks, no real right or wrong way to do anything and even weird archetypes that are so niche, most people probably haven't even seen them yet. (carpet shaman being the one that's flying under the radar still since A8 showed the world the new aggro overload style at the HCT just gone)
All of the Shaman Legendaries in standard are being used currently in decks as well.
ah sorry man this is specifically tagged for "wild"
Ok so I heard even shaman was nerfed? maybe it's still good though. I haven't played wild since around Jan this year so I'm not sure. I heard Big priest is still being horrible though and that There's a new warlock deck that's nearly as bad.

Even Shaman's "nerf" was actually a nerf to Flametongue Totem making it cost 3 and removing it from that archetype. However, I'm not positive all builds of Wild Even Shaman were using it to begin with. I did see an interesting post a day ago about someone's take on Even Shaman, using things like Garrison Commander and Draenei Totemcarver. Not sure how good it really is, but they hit legend with it apparently.

To sum my point up, even with the Flametongue change, there are ways to make Even Shaman work still.
yeah that doesn't even seem like a really important card TBH. I mean I do see some decks running it, but not often. It's more of an old school card. Like how you hardly ever see tide totems neither any more.
It is a very safe investment. There are finally some new versions now, but the deck was pretty much unchanged for over a year! Even the flametongue nerf did not matter that much as there were plenty of good and cheap replacements.

Yes you should, I would if I could.

Do it! Even shaman is very fun in wild and with the new expansion there are a couple of different versions which is a lot of fun

why not? last month i hit legend with even shaman. it works well vs odd paladin and token druid (not 100%)

I was in charge!! - Patches the Pirate
Thank you all! You really helped me with this. I'll see you on the Wild Ladder, if you even play it.
Kills odd paladin. I love it when I'm the even sham and hate it when I'm the odd pala lol
regarding the flame totem though. did anyone see this game? the guy hexes his own minion for lethal. it's amazing.
Yes, I've watched the highlight on youtube multiple times. Brilliant lethal.
This lethal lol
Maybe Big Priest and Odd Paladin are also fun?
