Got to legend with control/concede Shaman this season (rank 7 - legend exclusively the deck), it is a fun, one of the most diverse decks there are at the moment. You have a couple of win conditions, which you can decide to win a game with, there is no auto lose match up, you have the early board clears (Maelstrom Portal was a great addition for the deck) against fast decks and the best value and value protection game against slow decks
- Out-heal Aggro and Freeze Mage (Hunter/Shaman): Double healing wave and Halazeal are hard to beat for ultra face decks
- Out-taunt Aggro and Midrange (Beast Druid and Rogues): Ancestral Spirit on Earth Elemental, or a cheap Thing from Below with Ancestral Spirit plus Faceless
- Out-clear Aggro and Midrange decks (Dragon Warrior, Zoo, Tempo Mage, Token Druid): A good early elemntal destruction followed by your value game is one of the best early come back mechanisms there is in Hearthstone
- Out-value Control decks: In really slow match ups like C'Thun Warior, drawing lots of cards into Emperor/a good far sight, followed by Cairne into Ancestral into Faceless is pretty much not to beat (plus you have N'Zoth as further value thing)
- Out-hex other N'ZOth decks (Paladin, Resurrect Priest): The strenght against other N'Zoth decks is that you can Hex-up their threats, which they can't, making you win the value game. (also applies to some extent for the priest match up, Hexing their turn 3 or 4 play should be an early gg)
- Out-tempo with good far sight: An early good far sight gives you furthermore the chance to play a really fast game, there is basically no druid deck that can beat a turn 4/5 Earth Elemental/Sylvanas/Cairne with Ancestral Spirit (does not happen most of the time, but it is always a possibility)
Things to be aware of:
Trade-off between getting a lot of value but possibly dying early against using an early board clear and getting outsteamed the next turns is kind of a tricky decision
Sylvanas plus Shield Slam can be a dangerous thing against Control Warrior with your cairnes
This deck looks solid but is it still playable in season 30 (and 31 also) ? If yes, any update for that ? Thanks for your reply
P/S: my English is not good and i love this deck also
i like this deck but two things, is it possible to replace chillmaw (dont have it) and how is it against midrange hunter?
Robin could I add you to my friends list? I made rank 2 last season. I play on US. My tag is docsta#1791
im not really sure how good 2 portal is over running 2 doomsayer. the 1 dmg doesn't kill anything. only way you get any value is if you roll spell power totem or if you run bloodmage. and you know for a fact they will kill any spell power totems you get. like turn 2 portal vs zoo doesn't really kill anything.
