Deck Spotlight: Tidesoftime's Modern Control Shaman
In today's Deck Spotlight, we're going to take a peek at one of Tidesoftime's decks, the Modern Control Shaman. As the name states, this is a control oriented Shaman deck which aims to counter a lot of the current meta decks such as Zoo Warlock and Token Druid, but can also serve as a template for other control oriented shaman decks. A slight variation on this deck, which featured Pyromancer, was played by Team DogeHouse's Ekop in one of the recent ESGN Fight Night matches.
For more information on the deck, such as some card swaps, can be found on the deck page.

Posted Mar 27, 2014 (Live Patch 4973)How the hell is that a control deck? Doesn't even use all the shammy damage spells, no earth elemental, nothing. Half the deck consists of minions that don't offer much in the way of control, while the other half is just spot removal. At best this can be called a tempo deck, and it's not even very good at that.
/sigh, I wish people knew what the hell they were doing when building decks in HS.

Posted Mar 27, 2014 (Live Patch 4973)He's one of the 'best players' who bothers to play HS and take part in 'high level' tournaments. These tournaments are often closed off to the majority of the player base (players like me) so we don't really know how good he is or how well his deck stacks up to lesser common deck builds.
What you see here with Hearthstone is basically 'net deck syndrome' where everyone just copies the decks they see online, so you have a meta consisting of net decks. In MTG, this is where unknown rogue decks come out of nowhere and stomp all over the net deckers. I'd wager that I would beat him handily with my shaman deck.

Posted Mar 27, 2014 (Live Patch 4973)The deck as shown isn't up to date. He's using a knife Juggler in stead of Nat Pagle.
