Not your typical shaman. Based around gazlowe and spare parts, it has some crazy synergy and can do wonders! I'm on a big winstreak down to rank 7 with it, beat hunters, priests, warriors, pretty much everything can be beat with this deck, even if you don't draw gazlowe. Only bad matchup I've noticed is mage, have about 40% winrate against them. Feel free to comment what you would change and give it a + if you like it! :)
Edit: Loatheb in for a mech yeti, mage is so popular atm loatheb is pretty much an auto include. It is one less spare part, but it helps a lot against spell heavy decks. Troggzor is just as good, just personally like loatheb a bit more as it can stall a turn and has an immediate impact on the board, sometimes even denying lethal from your opponent. Also, haven't been able to achieve legend yet, highest rank at one point was 5.
Cards that are considerable but didn't make the cut:
Bloodmage: You run a lot of spells, so spellpower is always good, but think about it, would you run this guy over a mechwarper or a whirling zap-o-matic? probably not. You still have your drakes and occasionally your spellpower totems.
Black Knight: He is a super value card, I'm just not facing enough taunts to justify using him atm, and in faster matchups he's just a dead card. If you face a lot of taunts I recommend you find a spot for him.
Toshley: Too expensive for 2 spare parts and a 5/7 body in my opinion but might be good. You can try and play around with him, use him if you wanna fully commit to the spare parts but for this deck he just feels too gimmicky.
Mana Tide Totem: If you feel like you need more card draw, use him. I just feel like there's enough card draw already and your hand is never empty with the spare parts.
Enjoy your games :)
I've also been trying to make use of Gazlowe in a shaman deck. I got back to back handlocks with your deck this evening and they seem to be pretty unbeatable. I was having problems with not having removal for the early big threats and not having a burst down finish, to keep him from taunting up large, cheap minions to end me with.
Handlock should be favourable to Shaman although they are not without their chances. Maybe you can consider BGH with how popular Dr. Boom is nowadays.
@Snowdragon77
If I'm reading this right you're cutting Feral Spirits for Mechwarper. How hard are you able to push with the tempo gained from this?
Also, do you find yourself struggling to comeback after getting board-cleared?
hi, nice deck. i replaced the 2 mech yetis with another arcane nullifier and an antique healbot. the healbot makes me feel safer when going up against hunters
I dont think that card draw is the problem what you lack is a finisher i think al'akir shood do the trick just swap him fore one lightning bolt you shod be fine concerning Gazlove with all the spare part coming your way :)
P.S:Also you might want to try to toss in loatheb just for that after archmage + spare parts turn so you can win on the next one :) Hope this helps :) GL&HF
Yeah i know,but al'akir can win you some games you shod not win otherwise,i had the same idea to make this kind of spare parts control shaman just need that Gazlowe i really think that card is gonna be the new OP :) i really like the way your deck is shaping up :)
I like the concept, and I'm giving it a go. Feels like it's missing card draw though. I might attempt to add some. Thanks for posting!
