I used this deck to climb to legend from D5 (39 -21 // Winrate 65%).
Bolner Hammerbeak works really well with Primal Dungeoneer and Kindling Elemental. You can sometimes get this kind of board and draw:
Drek'Thar is used to cheese some wins for instance with a T2 Lightning Bloom. (Note: Playing Bolner Hammerbeak or Brilliant Macaw doesn't work with Drek'Thar most of the time because they are not the cheapest minion in the deck.)
Mulligan for cheap elementals andDrek'Thar, manage your mana and pay attention to the battlecries you play to plan turns with Brilliant Macaw and Bolner Hammerbeak. Sleetbreaker is really useful to slow down minion based decks.
The objective is to finish your opponent with Doomhammer and buffs, save your buffs and count how much damage you should need to plan turns with Diligent Notetaker.
Instructor Fireheart can get you out of desperate situations or help you find the last push of damage.
Mankrik is a late additionn to the deck, I tried various cheap battlecries or elementals instead but it should fit pretty well, it has good stats, is a battlecry minion and his wife can be pulled by Primal Dungeoneer.
Sadly, works not for me, too many looses
Is bolner replaceable? I'm on the fence about crafting him but I'd rather not.
Update: I replaced bolner with brukan for the 6 to face and made it to legend from D4 in about 3 hours. this deck is insane. I only lost to a priest who packed a viper(they controlled me too of course), a druid who cheesed their own drekthar, and a hunter who out curved me. I rarely play aggro decks so beating the otk and especially pirate warrior was so gucci. Thank you very much.
Good job, glad it worked for you !
Ok ,this is a great deck for shaman in the current post- nerf meta.
I was stuck and playing all kinds of different decks that just weren't working.
I am now at diamond 5 and even if I don't make it to legendary, I feel this deck is my best
chance.
I am Beating rogue and priest which rarely have I done before.
And while I haven't played against warrior yet, I again,think this is my best chance.
Thank you for posting this deck!
Thank you, I've had a lot of fun playing and tuning this deck. I uploaded the matchups and winrates. In my experience, priest and paladin were the toughest matchups, against warriors the winrate was slightly above 50%.
Good luck :)
