Hey guys!
This deck took me to from rank 17 to legend in just 13 hours with a winrate of 68%
The deck performs very well against druids, dragon warriors and hunters which is perfect for this meta.
Mulligan
Keep
Conditional keeps
- Flametongue Totem if you have Argent Squire or Tunnel Trogg
- Bloodmage Thalnos if you have Spirit Claws
- Lightning Storm or Maelstrom Portal against aggro
- Tuskarr Totemic if you have 1 and 2 mana drops or 1 mana drop and Coin
Remember, this is not an aggro deck. Using hero power is crucial to get reduction on Thing from Below. Trade efficiently and carefully use your overload cards to ensure that you can play cards like Azure Drake, Thunder Bluff Valiant and Fire Elemental on correct turns. Prepare you board with totems if you are getting close to a turn 7 Thunder Bluff Valiant + hero power. ALWAYS PLAN AHEAD
Huge shoutout to Fur0 who made a video of him playing the deck:
Shamans everywhere. Meta so broken. Blizzard, remove this class.
Need a deck to beat this CANCER!!
Hey've been saying that about hunter for the longest time so good luck with your pleas...
So what, there was a long time when Shamans were seen less than Priests today.
I've got a 70% win rate against this deck(since it really is everywhere) with my Pally Dragon. I don't mind seeing it in the Meta, I kind of look forward to it actually. Secret Hunter gives me issues though I'm like 20%. lol.
What's the point of Barnes in this deck?
Summon totem giant/totem bluff valiant?
Is that it?
The worst thing you can pull off of Barnes is a vanilla 1/1 in the form of Totem Golem, FIre Elemental, or Flamewreathed Faceless.
Seems like Barnes is pretty good in this deck. You get spell power, taunt, divine shield, or a minion that can grow (itself or others).
Bloodlust
I do not have Bloodmage Thalnos either but after some thinking and testing I decided to add Raid Leader. I am 5-0 with the deck using Raid Leader and he won me 4 of the 5 games. From what I saw most of the time you will have totems on board, and this is just increasing the chance to use your totems proactively without having to wait for turn 7 Thunder Bluff Valiant . If you combine this with Flametongue Totem you have quite some minions on board to clear or push for damage. The best part is that Raid Leader interacts also with all the other minions (and we have a lot of them). I have also replaced Barnes with another Flamewreathed Faceless, it is just a big minion that draws a lot of attention from the opponent making him spend a lot of resources to kill him while my totems remain intact. Hopefully this will help you and the others that are missing Bloodmage Thalnos.
Fantastic suggestion, never would've thought of that one. I am 4-0 right now with that replacement currently.
such a nice deck! 13:0 to rank 3
many thanks, thats deck i was looking for :D
sorry, from 6 to 3 :D
clearly both of the fire elementals should be swapped out with Ragnaros and Alakir
Sorry but everyone seems to run control warrior or dragon priest. Doesnt work atm
Barnes useless in this deck
I, too, do not see the reason behind placing Barnes into this decktype.
Might try adding another Flamewreathed Faceless (as Barnes is a 4-drop) or even Al'Akir the Windlord (a solid yet rather expensive class legendary).
You don't. Mistcaller is way too slow.
This deck has the ability to crush agro shaman. Great deck list.
pretty underwhelming results so far. i must just be getting unlucky because my opponents are just having perfect draws/answers. really dont see how a deck with no single target removal or anti weapon tech could do well in the current meta. loses hard vs hunter, warrior and other shaman.
