First post, long time exclusive shaman player. If you've found this congrats on discovering a real gem of a shaman deck. It's beauty is in it's simplicity - tempo, tempo, tempo. With 0 knowledge of the current meta I returned to HS and played this deck from 20 - 7 in one afternoon and am currently streaking through 7. I could go into a whole breakdown but basically play for board while planning your overload turns and eventually going face in the later game once they run out of threats/answers. It's also helpful know what opponents cards to play around (aoe, heals, etc....) and REALLY planning out your overload a turn ahead as well as what minions your going to have to deal with next. Oh and make sure to keep an eye out for 2 turn lethals in the late game, this deck has a good amount of reach. I'm a veteran player who just wants to give back to the Shaman community so feel free to message me in game with any questions/comments.
MULLIGAN: Basically just try to get your 1 and 2 drops, weapons, earthen might. Unless you know it's aggro then I'd never keep any removal since the deck has so much. But of course it depends on your hand, Zap! is a nice keep though for the weapon and unbound elemental synergy.
*UPDATE* swapped earthshocks out for thunderheads (4mana 3/5)
*UPDATE* swapped eartshocks back in for servants (they were too slow, need es to put on pressure late game)
Best,

So far this deck has been able to out-control Midrange Hunter, out-tempo Odd Rogue, and even burst down Wall Priest! Adding Al'Akir the Windlord makes a perfect finisher/damage sponge. The only deck that's given me trouble is Deathrattle Hunter with their Witchwood Grizzlies.
*Alternate version of this deck with some crazy evolve/buff synergy with Zentimo + Ancestral Spirit or Earthen Might or Unstable Evolution. And boosted card draw with Spirit of the Frog + Unstable Evolution.

Well Met! I created a video showcasing this deck. I hope that you will enjoy it and learn something new. Thanks and cheers!
Amazing, well done dude, piloted like a true master. And great play rationale.
I've got another very promising shaman deck here I think you will really appreciat, if you want to make a video of that I'd love to see it :)

Cheers
Thanks! When i will find a little bit of free time i will make a video about your other creation, btw great idea with the Meat Wagon to pull out Spirit of the Frog
Awesome! I think this one is even better than the Spirit of the Frog deck I linked you earlier, but I trust your judgement whichever one you'd prefer to showcase :)

At the beginning I though it was good but after losing 6 matches in a row I'm not so sure anymore
Honestly that can happen with any deck, but I'm sorry for your losses. I'd be happy to spectate a few games if you ever want to give it another try :)
You can’t. I’m EU
I' m not amused by the deck. first 3 games lost in a bad way and a big smile on my opponents face. Because i had litterally no defence.
I will try a few extra rounds. But it doesnot work as good as you say.
Sorry it sounds like a very negetive experience for you. Can you clarify what you mean by "defence", maybe there's some tweaking we can do to suit whatever meta you're experiencing at your rank.
Replacement for Kalimos, Primal Lord and Blazecaller ?
Hmm that’s a tough one that’s basically all your late game punch. I think you could go bonemares and alakir.
good deck I did take out voltanic burst for a hagather and a hex found works well against annoying board states
Glad it’s working for you! I can get behind the hex depending on the decks you are facing, situational cards are risky though because you really can’t afford a dead turn and t8 9 10 are when you should be setting up lethal ideally because the deck will run out of steam. I’d consider adding Alakir instead of Agatha maybe. Agatha kinda goes against the late game plan. Maybe cut a storm for it...
Lovely deck, Nice Overload and Elemental synergy. I liked it. Well done.
p.s You may consider replacing one of Blazecallers with Blood Lust
Glad you enjoyed it :) Interesting idea, you should give it a try too and let me know how it works for you! I'm also (but not in addition to) tempted to add alakir just for a little more consistent late game burst and keeps the elemental chain going.
have you considered adding bloodlust? I find the deck lacking in the matter of closing the game especially against other tempo decks (e.g. other shamans, rogue etc.)
It’s tempting but The issue with cards like bloodlust is the risk of a dead turn in a tempo deck. And if you manage to get a big board to stick vs tempo you are probably in good shape anyways even though it feels nice to blow ppl up you can usually just out value them with the larger elementals. I am concidering finding a spot for Alakir for some more late game punch.
Thanks! Longtime Shaman player here, been playing nothing but the elemental shaman meta deck, nice to mix things up.
