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:
Yup. I've been struggling with my own midrange lists, too. But there are some problems imnsho with this list and most others like it on the internet.
First of all, I currently run 2x Acidic Ooze in my decks. I don't think you can get away without them in this meta. They have the additional benefit of strengthening your early game. Most current netdecks just do not have a robust early game: Squires and Troggs look really stupid facing down a Flame Imp or a coined Elekk. Don't be afraid to use an ooze as a 2-drop.
So, drop the useless Barnes and cut one Fire Elemental for a couple of oozes. Then drop one Trogg for Al Akir -- because you need a finisher! That basically my list :) It still struggles from a lot of the issues you brought up, but I think you'll find it's better than this deck.
i guess i need a lesson on how to make more totem golems with my tuskars.
This really reminds me of the days where people first started combining midrange and face hunter into hybrid hunter.
I would name this hybrid shaman :p
No. Xixo's aggro shaman is a hybrid. This list is firmly in midrange territory.
I don't think barnes is a good choice for this deck
I agree. Thinking about another 4-drop. Secound Flamewreathed Faceless or Master of Evolution?
Try running a friggin' finisher. And a more robust early game. Drop Barnes and maybe one Fire Elementaland a trogg for Big Al the Winlord and an ooze or two.
Tried this for a couple of matches and went into the deck listings and changed the name of this deck to "DB Shaman" and then logged off to go take a shower. It works, but it's not much fun IMO.
Any cheap replacement of bloodmage? Only card im missing and just crafted the one true YOGG and dont have anymore dust :(
kobold geomancer
do u think is good replacement: -1 fire elemental +1 ragnaros?
That is exactly what I did. Angry rag is a great Barnes target.
Would Master of Ceremonies be a good one-of in this deck?
I don't think this card is good even when it works... =/
Why Barnes ??
get anything is value stat 4 mana 4/5 like yeti if get minion with effect it more value
Thanks both for the response.
