I did not track the stats, but i climbed pretty easily from rank 500 to rank 18 legend
Mulligan for the early minions except for scarab, you want him in mid/late game to help you with the discover hability.
Cards Choice Explanation:
Tunnel Trogg is a powerful early minion, similiar to a Mana Wyrm, but you can play in curve your minions and buff his attack
2x Lightning Bolt its a good removal on early game and buffs Tunnel Trogg
2x Jeweled Scarab because shaman has probably the best 3 drops in the game and you can choose wich card would help you in a better way. At first i was trying 2x Lightning Storm and 2x Hex , but they are situational cards and you can get them from Jeweled Scarab and i liked it.
2x Fireguard Destroyer good sinergy with Trogg
1x Bloodlust i won a lot of games with a 12 or 15 damage bloodlust
UPDATE: My friend Nalguidan picked at rank 4 with the deck
UPDATE 22/11
I tracked some games today and yesterday, 33-15 so far with a few changes i made to the list by reading all your comments.
-1 Jeweled Scarab +1 Ironbeak Owl : it was hard to battle the board against deathrattle rogues and the owl its really good in a lot of matches.
-1 Tuskarr Totemic +1 Unbound Elemental: after reading your comments i tried 2 Unbounds but Tuskar is still good for me, so i decided to run 1 of both.
-1 Piloted Shredder+1 Defender of Argus: Argus is always good in shaman, i could not decide if i wanted to remove 1 shredder of 1 destroyer, its a close choice
About Brann Bronzebeard and Neptulon, i tried them and the meta is too fast for them, if you are facing a lot of control decks they are a good option though.
Mulligan Guide
General: Tunnel Trogg, Haunted Creeper and Totem Golem are always a keep, if you have one of those in hand you can keep Flametongue Totem too, and if you have the coin you can keep a 3 drop also.
VS Druid: Lightning Bolt or Crackle (to kill Darnassus Aspirant).
VS Hunter: Lightning Bolt and Earth Shock / Ironbeak Owl to control early board.
VS Mage: Lightning Bolt to kill Mana Wyrm, Earth Shock / Ironbeak Owl to silence Mad Scientist or Doomsayer (dont silence scientist unless you know its tempo mage).
VS Paladin: Earth Shock / Ironbeak Owl to control early minions, Lightning Storm.
VS Priest: Lightning Bolt for Northshire Cleric, Hex and a 4 drop if you have coin (not Argus).
VS Rogue: Lightning Bolt for their 3 drop, Earth Shock / Ironbeak Owl because it could be deathrattle rogue.
VS Shaman: Lightning Bolt to kill Tunnel Trogg, Lightning Storm.
VS Warlock: Earth Shock / Ironbeak Owl, Hex, Lightning Bolt instead of Hex if you know its zoo.
VS Warrior: Hex and a 4 drop if you have coin (not Argus).
replacement for Dr.boom?
Neptulon or Ragnaros i think, but Dr. Boom should be your fist legendary to craft, its good in all decks
You could use Neptulon or any good late game card but no card is the same as dr7. Craft him, he is used in most HS decks.
can we have a mullgin guide please i really need it im having trouble
its aggro. go for low drops. only time to keep above a 3 drop is a shedder against control
its not an aggro deck, sometimes you win in turn 5 SMOrc, but its still Midrange
5-0 with this deck so far, even beat mid-range paladin that flood their board every turn
Just wanna say that I took this deck from rank 11 - rank 4 on a 15 game streak and still have not dropped a game. Flawless execution with every draw, always have the right answers, and does surprisingly well against control warrior (3-0). Even if not off the back of trogg growing to a 8-2 (happened once, I laughed), the deck has so many strong low cost drops that overload doesn't set you back. Thank you so much for the post and Hope to hear others results.
Mid range druid - 2-0
Edwin Mid Rouge- 1-0
Face hunter 2-0
Mid paly - 2-0
Secret Paly - 1-0
Mech Shaman- 1-0
Tempo Mage- 1-0
Zoolock- 2-0
Control warrior 3-0
jinxed myself unforunately, but 17-1 is still amazing!
Keep going and let us know what your score is like after 200-300 games
What's your plan versus dragon priests? I think I don't even have a possibility. Tips, please?
Thanks
Midrange has very low chance against Priest, your best is to spam the board, pray for no AoE, cast Bloodlust, Earthshock their Tuants, and steal the victory.
Wow!!! What can I say this deck is really strong on ladder right now beat a tempo mage and a druid XD ! FeelsGoodMang :forsenGasm: ! This deck just feels really solid! Seemed like I always had answers and the curves were nice... plus I mean who doesn't love a little bloodlust surprise for the opponent ;P ! TY for the share yoh! Here's some gameplay I made of the deck :3 !
Add Brann to this deck and have fun ^^
Paladin is probably the worst match up, Muster for Battle is too strong
OK so this deck is really solid, but I have lost to every hunter I've encountered in Rank 15 - that's 4 hunters, in a row. I'd like to try the second Lightning Storm, but is there anything else I can do?
How does waiting mid to late game "help with the discover ability"? It literally gives you a 3 cost card. Why would not cast it on turn 2? that makes zero sense, and you didn't explain at all, which is frankly baffling. I can't even begin to comprehend why in God's name you would ever, ever, ever play scarab mid to late game. That makes zero sense.
Because 2 mana for 1/1 is a big tempo loss even if you get a good 3 drop, so the scarab is better late where you can get the value of having an extra hex, feral spirit, whatever, and providing more cards. You'd rather have troggs with overload cards, especially totem golem, feral spirit, etc.
Imo you can climb the ladder with it, but make some changes according to the decks you are facing. I played a bit with it and it feels pretty solid. You can cut scarabs for +1 storm and +1 hex. You can also cut 2 lighting bolts and 1 bloodlust for 2 rockbitter and Al'kair but that would make buffing trogg less consistent. Also, consider replcaing tusskar with unbound elementals. Good luck
