If you lose a lot you're shit at mulligans, or not greedy enough with your power plays and synergies.
For free win vs warrior just stack up board till turn 7, he plays dead turn, DR. Boom turn, then you just BL and win, easy way for board to stick vs warrior. Also go FACE more vs warrior, if he has 2 armour when you play your Unbound Elemental it's going to get armour up and shield slam turn 3, if you hit face with your Sludge Slurper or your Menacing Nimbus the turn before you wouldn't have lost the game, best of luck hf x
Warrior just FUCKS this deck up right throw the throat....
edit: yep.. 5 warriors in a row...
Not really, if we're talking Bomb Warrior I haven't lost to them once so far.
Control is a tougher matchup, but with a bit of luck I am also over 50% W/R against it. You just need to bait his removal spells, especially Warpath and Brawl. And don't let him have his swing turns (like don't let him use Dynomancer on 5 effectively, it's pretty easy to avoid).
Sick guide.
While I didn't use exactly your deck (I got inspired by A8 overload shaman from WCT and made my own version), I agree - this deck is great and, what I find the best, has no weak matchups (at least from the T1/T2 decks). It's really fun to play too cause you need to predict next turn play due to overload mechanism.
I was wondering about your take on running 2nd copy of Bloodlust and both copies of Earthen Might. Are they that useful? I run 3 cards 1 copies of Hex , Walking Fountain and Lightning Storm but I wonder if I should replace any of them.
Cheers
I tend to go for a much more aggressive package. I don't run AoE or hexes. I have electra, swamp queen and zilliax in mine as well though so it's a little more expensive. (I also run scribes as I think they're great for if your board gets cleared. you can electra+bloodlust for 6 damage added to each, which is often enough for lethal)
I don't think you really need more than 1 bloodlust, but it doesn't hurt having 2 as you can use one earlier as well. I would run 2 if I had the room for it.
Earthen might is good if you run a lot of elementals like in this list. I don't run it though as I have fewer elementals.
If you want to run some control tools though, go for it. I think the reason Abe used them in the tournie though was because it was a tournie and he had a good idea what he'd face. On ladder (especially as late as it is now into a month, then the start of next month) you want very fast and aggressive decks.
I have about 10 shaman decks right now ranging from full blown miracle krag'wa decks to the most basic aggressive murloc decks. There is no right way to build decks IMO, you either just play what you like, or you adjust to the meta.
Whatever you want to do is right really.
I think it's important we share ideas on this archetype as it's not very well represented at all. The first time I even seen anyone else playing a deck like this was Abe650 in the recent HCT.
I'm actually watching his matches back to get some ideas for plays. ha ha.
My problem with Earthen Might is that I can rarely think of a situation where can I use it (like, there's always a better play for me) and card to replace it. Hex is also not that needed, but it did help me few times. As for Lighting Storm, I think it's really useful giving ammount of token druids and zoo warlocks - obviously you can trade vs them too with no problem (that's why I run only 1 copy of storm), but storm pretty much wins you the game.
I just crafted Electra and I'm gonna be honest - she's a great fit. And another reason to run 1 copy of storm, cause it gives her another nice synergy (although Bloodlust synergy is the most important).
not tried the azurites yet as don't have them, was thinking they would be good though. do you have electra? you can get double bloodlust with her.
I am working on an elemental deck, but missing electra so can't finish it yet.
Hey man, electra is good, just don't have her. If I did I would take out 1 azerite and put her in for a more aggro variant. If I had the hagatha hero I would replace 1 azerite and put her in instead for a more control version, but the version I posted is the one I am playing, and is just pretty good all round.
I see you took those epics out anyway? I'm thinking about crafting electra for my own deck which is similar to yours. if I do I'll let you know how it works out.
really I'd like to have zentimo, too though. so I may craft zentimo then just use vargoth instead of electra. he won't work for the double bloodlust cast though. Vargoth works as a replacement in a control deck though as you can double cast lightning storm and stuff with him. I have seen some people actually running both Vargoth and Electra as well.
with zentimo you can triple cast hex though, which is so good.
you not like bog sloshers? I am making a shudderwok version and I think i'm gonna have sloshers. I will show you when it's built.
Seen a sick shudderwock vs atm, wtih omega defender, giggling inventor etc. actually recked me. I legit thought I was being so original with this deck in this meta and then one of the tournament guys had this deck, I didn't really like his version, but the sea giants and soul of the murloc I thought was excellent synergy, so I thought it fun to try it out :)
yeah they are better probably than those epics you had in before.
yeah mate the shudderwock decks can get pretty deep. people are including coppertail imposter for it's stealth, and baleful banker to try and shuffle another shudderwock into the deck. then you have drake for health, omega for attack etc.
I'm making one myself at the minute, just trying to fine tune it really as I have the majority of the cards I think.
I seen heeljin playing a weird token druid today though thats nothing like any of the ones on ladder. it's basically built around stalladris, sometimes making a second with floob. (I don't know if you play druid as well. it's a great mid range sort of deck though. you probably haven't seen one quite like this)
but where it really shines are the exotic mount sellers IMO. as you;re generating a lot of spells with stalladris you can get loads of beasts from the seller. it doesn't run anything like wisps or force of nature though and it only runs copies of portal to try and gtet more copies of stalladris.
looked like loads of fun anyway. gonna have to get floob and try it out.
I just built mine, dude. I will get it uploaded. I think the deck is the same other than mine has - 1 bloodlust and + 1 electra.
I think anyway. There are a few variants though, I just think that this more aggressive package is the way to go with it as well.
I'd love to try the Zentimo version as well, but don't have that card yet.
EDIT: mine has feral spirit instead of unbound elemental as well. think that's the only difference though.
oh and swamp queen hagatha as well. LoL. there might be more differences too. I will upload anyway so we can compare.
in fact this is identical to the one I'm running. yours has more of an elemental package going on, where is mine is pretty much pure overload.
I have a proper Elemental deck planned as well, but I need Zentimo to really make it work properly. triple hex and earthen might is amazing.

This deck is dirty. I was just looking for a deck to complete elemental quest... and instead found best deck NA.
Thanks dude, glad you like it. Been playing this on EU, and it's definitely fun :)
