This is my Ra-den Control Shaman list. It is currently in development and so far is doing well in testing. It seems to do well against every archetype in the meta. I had a list similar to this that was a hybrid of big shaman, like most of the lists floating around right now, but the full control version seems to be better and much more consistent. There are many ways to clear the board, disrupt priest, doom aggro, and recover health. Remember that with Ra-den, when you play a board clear, you also generate a minion. The card advantage earned via Hagatha the Witch and The Fist of Ra-den are very strong. Always hold on to the Hoard Pillagers till Ra-den is destroyed. Try and muligan into some of the lower cost cards, but most of the early game is going to be playing totems. Remember there is tons of board clears and life recovery options in the deck, you should be fine against aggro, even if they are winning the early game. The comeback potential this deck has is insane, and with 2x copies of Hex and Plague of Murlocs this deck even wins against the ridiculous quest priest deck. Try it out, and let me know what you guys think.
Hello Emokore,
Im curious if you tried this with mutate/unstable evolution? I'm attempting it now, essentially switching your reborn minions for the transform cards, plus mogu. Also, did you find hagatha was worth it, considering the low amount of minions?
Thanks for the feedback Sliwu. This deck usually wins against res priest and any control or midrange deck really. It only has a little trouble against super fast aggro like face hunter and trent druid, but even then, it still can win and stabilize pretty easy with all the life gain and clear. As long as you can make it to 6-7 mana crystals. you said it best, it is stuper strong, but hard to master. I made my wife a version with the galakrond package, because she did not have hag, but it seems to work better without it. The main problem being you can pillager a galakrond weapon, rather than ra-den, but sometimes that is a good thing, just not often.
i was playing my resurrection priest and this deck came across my path…. except it had galakrond included in it ^^' we finished with no cards left and the opponent killed me because he had Hagatha + Ra-den and 2x Hoard Pillager ^^' he was constantly having new cards and even though i have a deck with huge card creation ability with spirit of the dead and Bwonsamedi, but he killed them all before i could generate anything…
this deck isn't easy to master but it's the first time a contrôle deck pulls it off against my resurrection priest ^^ GG !
