UPDATE 3
Good news everyone! I've perfected the deck! (this wasn't a professor putricide pun but i just read it after i typed it and it was amazing)
This deck is now amazing and craftable. Insane value becomes more insane if you add some tempo too!!!
I think in last 2 days i just pefected the control shaman archetype in this expansion. I've worked hard and it paid off. When i first started this deck my win rate was at %26. Now it's %63 and i count the old games too! Which is incredible.
I explained all the changes except one in the video below and that one is -1 Rain of Toads , +1 Barista Lynchen
Rain of Toads is a good card but it avoids getting my Hagatha's Scheme 's early with Storm Chaser 's and it's terrible. I lost games just because of that.
Barista Lynchen is not a must have card but helps alot. I've had some amazing combos with it. If you are lucky enough she can win you more games!
I'll upload some insane games i've had while i was streaming so go check them out below when they are ready!
Thanks for all the kindness and support! And suggestions! You guys are amazing.
So, after all those likes and good comments, why havent i done a proper guide yet, So here it is!
THEORYCRAFTING PHASE AND MAIN IDEA OF THE DECK:
Some of you may know that there is a really good professional Hearthstone player named Viper. In Rastakhan's Rumble expansion, he joined a HGC tour with a unique and unheard of Control Shaman deck named Peanut Shaman. The deck was so fun and difficult to play and I loved it. Played it alot. So before Rise of Shadows came out, I saw cards like Hagatha's Scheme, Archivist Elysiana and I thought that I can continue Viper's amazing legacy even better! So here it is, the heavy Control Fatigue Value Shaman is here!
Main idea of this deck is stall the game to lategame, then take advantage of late game value from the cards like Swampqueen Hagatha, Archivist Elysiana, Krag'wa, the Frog, Shudderwock and stuff like that.
If the game goes into the Fatigue phase, No one can keep up with your value game and you win.
CARD EXPLANATIONS:
Earth Shock: Who doesn't like a cheap silence? And the infamous Twilight Drake killer!
Omega Mind: Cheaper and more powerful Reno Jackson basically. Use this with Hagatha's Scheme in lategame and see the concede screen from your opponent.
Haunting Visions: It's basically a free spell. You just choose according to the state you are in which is cool. Also a nice combo with Krag'wa, the Frog
Lightning Storm: Nice AoE against aggro decks. Also a good combo with Bloodmage Thalnos
Hex: Classic Removal, Fantastic with Krag'wa, the Frog
Storm Chaser: The most important key card to this deck. It prevents late game dead Hagatha's Scheme draws, and enables Sunreaver Warmage
Hagatha's Scheme: The reason this deck happened
Krag'wa, the Frog: Insane value card. Just one more Hex sometimes means winning instantly. Good combo with Haunting Visions
Swampqueen Hagatha: Insane value card. Good combo with Barista Lynchen [/card]and [card]Shudderwock
Hagatha the Witch: Perfect value generator and good board clear, The heart of the deck.
Walking Fountain: Amazing powehouse, minion remover and survivability.
Shudderwock: This is not a shudderwock deck so i hate when people label this as Shudderwock Shaman. Shudderwock is here to support in every scenario. Good combo with all other battlecry cards. Especially Krag'wa, the Frog
Acidic Swamp Ooze: There are tons of weapons in this meta, it's a must! Good combo with Barista Lynchen and Shudderwock
Bloodmage Thalnos: Cheap draw, Cheap removal support. Amazing.
Doomsayer : Good stall option, amazing against aggro. Fits well with other stall cards.
Proud Defender: Tar Creeper on Steroids. Helps with the board early.
Barista Lynchen: Win condition and almost a tech card against Tesspionage Rogues with Acidic Swamp Ooze value. Otherwise good with Swampqueen Hagatha and all battlecry minions.
Sunreaver Warmage: Great tempo swing in early-mid game and has perfect synergy with our deck.
Zilliax: Necessary card in every control deck.
Archivist Elysiana: Amazing fatigue preventer, bomb removal. Also you can basically rebuild your deck against OTK decks. Brain of the deck.
Saving incase of power outage, I'm continuing this right now
Current state of the deck and the future plans video:

0 MANA PYROBLAST TO FACE IN 2019???
Thanks for all the likes and comments, suggestions. This is not the final change, i will update it again and again.
Thanks for everyone who made a video about it, here's the spotlight videos people have done.
back in the old days people would play 2 Mad Scientist with 2 Ice Block only. If you dont draw Hagatha's Scheme early and top deck it in lategame your value drops to %0. So it's absoultely necessary, and i even play Sandbinder to pull storm chaser early its THAT important. If you are not comfortable with it you can add second Rain of Toads. But even with only 2 hagatha's scheme i would play 2 Storm Chaser s so i dont recommend it :)
Hmm I didn't think of it in terms of needing scheme ASAP in hand. Fair point!
Witch's Brew + Krag'wa, the Frog will be a backbreaker for any decks that aren't trying to burst you down. I would run 2 Witch's Brew in my version, one for the combo and one for just general survivability.
Witch's Brew is a weak card that i desperetaly play since the rain is gone. I thought sitting with 2 witch's brew's in hand was terrible. But if it turns out OK in this meta i would add second copy. This deck will drastically change when expansion comes out.
It does look like an interesting list. Thanks for posting it. Do you think there is any room for a second Haunting Visions. The value seems so good. If so, what card would you replace?
Omega Mind for sure. I'm not sure if i need that much hp late game. But with healing rain gone i feel so scared so i put her up. Also against heavy aggro decks 2/2-3 early game might help if i dont draw doomsayer. But definitely you can go for second visions or toads instead of omega mind.
Nice concept, I can tell you put some thought into this based off all the 1x cards. Interested to see how this holds up against aggro decks and other control decks with big swing turns. Definitely going to be trying this out.
Thank you! I've theorycrafted tons of shaman decks dont forget to look on my profile for them and upvote /downvote.
