Hey guys, I may have just drafted my best arena deck so far (it has no big standouts, its just a solid deck with strong minions and spells):
I feel like there isn't a single bad card and it has the potential to go 12-0 if RNG goes my way. What do you guys predict, and what are some suggestions to playing it so I don't mess up this dream run?
Seems like a solid draft. You luckily got a lightning storm and wild pyromancer for board clear and one hex. Good amounts of removal through spells and weapons and strong mid/late game minions. Chances are, the games you lose will be early tempo losses since you aren't the heaviest in early game minions. Either way, a strong draft! Good luck to 12-0
This is a solid draft. 3 spot is a little light, but if you can stay even till you hit those 4 drops, I think you'll win. I would think 10 wins with a couple loses due to poor draw.
This seems like a really good deck. I've gotten to 10 wins with far worse shaman decks than this, so this should have no problem reaching 12 wins. The only way this deck would be better is if it had more 3 drops (they seem to be lacking in this deck) or more fire eles (Cause he's op)
Yeah, nice deck. It has potential to go 12 wins if you're good at arena. But don't be worried if you only go 9-10, it takes a lot of things going in your favor to hit the big 12. Be sure to come back and let us know how it goes.

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. - T. E. Lawrence
Aggressively muligan for your early game, as you lack sticky minions and have a few situational cards that need board presence to obtain any value. Early board control is also essential in protecting your health pool - something you'll need if you want to extract any value from your weapons. I feel an Antique healbot to go along with that doom hammer would have improved the deck significantly.
When you have the option, don't be afraid to make the tempo play over the value play, as your deck will almost always out quality your opponents. This might even mean playing a naked turn 4 cult master if your draw is bad, though as it's your only card draw engine I'd feel really bad doing it.
Thanks for all the advice everyone! I kept my three drops and I made tempo plays over value (thank you TehjumpingJawa!) like rockbiter into an abusive sergeant turn 1. Most of my games were not close simply due to the overall better quality of my cards, but I did have one really intense game against an paladin who just filled their board with muster, and I topdecked a lightning storm.
Normally after drafting a good deck I would put it off for days, afraid of messing it up, but I'm glad I went for it this time. Thanks again :)

12 wins or we will all be disappointed in you.
J/k good luck.
