If any of you guys ever remembered the thread I made about my unwillingness to craft a deck, well I did it. I crafted Even Shaman, and I have to say that it is meta-defining. I'm going on a 68% WR, and there are no signs of stopping at Rank 4. I recently hit a 9 win streak, and I'm riding on a 5 win streak now. Obviously all the matchups aren't perfect, but one of the most important things is that it beats BOTH Odd Paladin and Kingsbane Rogue, and fairs decently well against Big Priest. I've played 66 games, and I highly recommend you check it out. This is looking like the Pepper Thread but if anyone wants to get into Wild, Even Shaman is the way to go. I'll edit this later with the decklist.
Not necessarily, I encountered no Even Shamans on my run from rank 15-4. It was pretty interesting, it has largely faded from popularity in favor of Control Shaman or Murloc Shaman.
Ah yes, Devolve. I used to run 2 of them, but because I kept running into Big Priest, I put in 2x Hex. When I finally stopped running into them, I cut a hex for some tech cards, like Golakka Crawler. The main reason is because while it can deal with a large, overstated threat, I felt that Maelstrom Portal was SO much better against the aggro i was facing, which was why I put in 2x Walking Fountain, which has saved me at least 2 games.

Running Menacing Nimbus over Dire Wolf Alpha and not running Devolve is just plain wrong.
Also,
