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).
any room for doomhammer or the windfury legendary dude in this deck?
This deck seems to favor Bloodlust as a win condition due to its aggressive early/midgame board (haven't played it yet, though.) But if you wanted to squeeze in either, you would definitely need to make room for x2 Rockbiter. I like the "value" win more than a burst combo win better for Shaman, due to the lack of card draw (which this deck does suffer from.)
how you play vs priest's, bro? can't win any game... :C
Tossed out Jeweled Scarab for Everyfin is Awesome. My minons need their +2/+2 it's a great game ender.
this deck dosen't even have any murlocs though
I'm using -1 Lightning Bolt and +1 Sir Finley Mrrgglton (Awesome card for shaman) and i have to say that this deck is pretty damn sick
Which hero powers do you prioritize over others? (beginner player questions)
Depends on the matchup. Generally you want to get Fireblast/Shapeshift,but you can also chose Shield up/Heal against more control matchup.
Wait you dont always take life tap
life tap is a top tier pick but vs some like hunter its terrible so you want some life gain. sir finley is one of my favorite cards from loe
thanks man! :)
I don't have fireguard destroyer yet, what card should i replace it with
my first instinct is it's amazing twin the Fire Elemental
I think 2 unbound elemental will better???
This deck only has 8 duplicate cards. This could very well be very close to using Reno Jackson in it as well. Just a thought.
Now that the new wing is out, what can we replace to use sir finnely?
I took out the lightning bolt
Deck isnt bad I win about 70% of the time
Is it worth having a Loatheb in here?
