I'm using the list below. Of course is not a tier 1 deck but consistently beats cubelock, due to hex and devolve. Is a fun deck but if you want to climb with a deck like this I sugest some N'zoth Shaman deck, way stronger and consistent. Not drawing your spellstones in time cost a lot of games
I tried big overload a lot yesterday. It was kinda good, better than before at least. In wild with Elemental Destruction is working really well but in standard is kinda hard to activate the spellstone. But when it works oooooooh man. I got 4 The Storm Guardian buffed with Ancestral Spirit. Getting a bunch of Things from below with ancestral spirit is aways nice too.
I have a tradition of aways crafting the shaman legendary minion, no matter what. So I crafted him and... yeah it's bad. I tried him in a bunch of diferent decks like control and midrange. It's aways too slow and usually you're just doing what others classes are doing but in a worse slower way.
I wish there was a deck good enough for him, just so he has some use, but I don't want it to become the new discard.
2000 wins with shaman and couting. By far my favorite class and my only golden portrait.
We didin't get the dream cards this expasion but I think the freeze mechanic has potential, we just need to find the right combination. The old Earth Elemental + ancestral spirit is not enough to make the cut these days.
I like the concept, I realy do, and I'm definetely will try it. Anything that pushes token decks aways is welcome to me.
I'm thinking in use this freeze package in a slow control shaman. The brrrrloc it's a excuse to put Curator in a deck along with Primordial Drake. I aways tried to put it in my decks but was missing more sinergy cards like paladin decks.
This whole freeze theme comes together as a combo only. You set the combo with Voodoo Hexxer and Ice Breaker, then next turn you go crazy with the murloc and Moorabi clearing the board and getting some precious value. I think will fit well in a N'zoth deck or a bogchamp style.
The Cryostasis at first seems to fit in a more midrangey deck, or at least a not so slow deck.
Aggro is not really the problem, I think I lose 1 every 6 ou 7 matchups. The exclusive problem are mages, too much burn for me to handle. Mind sharing your N'zoth list? I made some variations of it but it was a lot worse than this Y'shaarj.
Spirit Echois too good against paladin and taunt warrior for me to take of the deck. It sinergyses very well with Jinyus, helping with the healing. But I'll defitenly try switching ancestral spirits for Mistress.
Harrison Jones it's a life savior against mages with Medivh, every game that I can destroy their Atiesh is a game that I win. This is not a completly oneside game for mages like it is when I use some N'zoth lists with Stonehill Defender.
Usually mages don't run polymorf and if you drop a big body early in the game they have to spend some burn in it. That's usually my strategy, and works like 40% of the time.
Some friends of mine told me to put Eater of Secrets but this deck don't have a way to apply pressure, so if I get to the situation when I'm already breaking his block I already won. The secret eater would make me just win a turn earlier.
I'm using the deck below since un'goro was out, only changing a few things. It's my favorite deck so far and I'm usually able to get to rank 5 pretty easily when the college allows me to play.
The thing is since the end of june season I'm facing a wall of mages around rank 10~8 and I simply can't pass through them. I know this is not the best deck climb but until now I was doing so good and I don't want to abandon my favorite deck just to get higher on ladder.
The diffculties I'm facing with this deck against mages are card draw and healing. If I don't draw my specific answers at right time I lose. In every other match I'm doing pretty well, this deck is really good against aggressive decks. If you guys run some similiar lists just give some light so I don't feel so helpless against these mages.
It's and interesting deck but I think is too techy for me... Harrison, Black night, eater os secrets and even earth shock might be good in some matchups but in others are just bad cards. I'm using the new Ooze and so far it's being great, don't need that many tech cards. Bomb Squad, for me at least, falls in the same problem I had when I was using Moat Lurker in my evolve decks, if you draw Master of Evolution or Evolve is good but if you don't it's just a terrible card.
I'm using this deck lately and having a lot of fun with it and some modest success around rank 8. It has Evolve sinergy with Stone Sentinel and it's not that bad on its own. Doppelgangster is cool but without evolve is just a dead draw, that's why I'm using just one.

How is Cryostasis doing for you guys? I'm trying the deck below but I can't find place for it. It doesn't seem very appealing.

I'm thinking in putting Mistress of Mixtures to help in outhealing them.
