This is the Bloodlust Shaman deck that Hotform used to hit legendary #1 for North America today.
Here's his 8 hour Twitch Recording, with gameplay leading up to the #1 rank:

Congrats, Hotform!
Nice deck! insane burst with bloodlust, i change one mana tide totem for loatheb
I can't seem to win against hunter with this deck, should I go face and race them most of the time or stick to trade and setup for bloodlust ?
I just lost a game to facehunter even with a coin +double zombie chow opener. Other hunter games didn't go well either.
I've watched hotform's stream many times while he was streaming this deck and he mentions face hunter as probably the hardest counter to this because of absence of any healing cards such as an antique healbot. If you are facing a lot of hunters you should probably take out a manatide for a healbot or play popular anti-aggro decks such as this:

Great deck! 12W - 3L so far. Thanks!
Amazing deck , never tougth i'd say that about a Blood lust shaman . love it :)
Today i hit legend with this deck for the first time with my golden shaman.Thanks Hotform for this awesome deck.See you in stream.
getting mauled nonstop by paladins. also has a worse matchup vs war compared to the traditional midrange shaman. not feelin this on NA right now. stuck at rank 4
I'll agree with you about getting mauled by Paladins, but I don't think I've lost to a warrior yet since running this deck.
I replaced lightning bolt with Neptulon. It weakens the aggro matchup slightly, but I think it's well worth it. Against heavier control, I seem to run out of steam and minions to use Bloodlust on. Neptulon gives you 4 murlocs which have great synergy and are also good Bloodlust targets. GRrglgrlglglgrrrg Old Murk-Eye
Couldn't agree more here , and ligthing bolt sucks overall imo :)
Why no Loatheb to set up board for bloodlust?
He was apparently playing some background music in the first part of the video that got detected as copyrighted and Twitch muted it. The sound is on for something like the last third of the video.
If u consider a second Rockbiter Weapon ,then Al'akir might be consider too... anyw, ive been switching on and off so far. Let's see.
Is one Lightning Bolt playing a big role in this deck ?Hmm.. If we were to swap Lightning Bolt out , what is the best replacement ?
So many chioces.
How about you guys ?
I wondered about it as well, as Lightning Bolt has kind of fallen out of favor. What I find in playing the deck is that it synergizes well with Bloodmage Thalnos, the 2x Azure Drakes, and spell power totem. It's easy to get 4 or 5 damage out of it in mid game for a 1 mana up-front cost and send it anywhere. Very flexible. I would otherwise consider a second Rockbiter Weapon.
sholuld you play controllish or agressive with that?
Best advice would be to watch him play it on the link above. There are some good tips in there. He basically shifts between more conservative play and more aggressive play, depending on what he is seeing from his opponent. The way he decided to hatch or keep Nerubian Eggs, in particular, was enlightening.
there are no haste minions on hearthstone, you gobblin sandtwat
I am playing at rank 4 with this deck and 'Tempo Mage shits all over it. Although it does wreck aggro decks, so if you're having trouble against aggro decks then you are not playing the deck properly. This deck is very bad against midrange decks tho.
