Having played Hearthstone for nearly 2 years usually finishing around Rank 5 mostly with creative tier 2 type decks I thought this month might be my month due to my love of Aya Blackpaw and her Jade Golems therefore I put together the most competitive deck I've ever made currently sitting Rank 3 dreaming of finally hitting Legend :)
I thought I'd share this easy to play but very fun deck that has alot of turn planning more regarding future plays with everyone in hope that someone else might be helped to higher rank this month.
The Strategy
The first few turns plays like a traditional Mid Range Shaman that we all know and hate ;) gain board control through Tunnel Trogg and Totem Golem with the added benefit of Jade Claws to pick off weakening minions. One Lightning Bolt also for early game removal but can be scaled with the Drakes and spell power Totem.
Entering the early mid game getting Brann Bronzebeard out aka Jade Golems bff is your strongest play but should only be done if you have the board if not save him to combo in latter turns. Cards like Jade Spirit get the Golem train rolling also adding immediate board presence against aggro decks. Feral Spirits also buys time against aggro to allow you time to clear with Lightning Storm and Maelstrom Portal. Jade Lightning is a powerful mid game removal again adding more Golem synergy. Lotus Agents and Azure Drake provide you with enough draw to keep going and press your opponents as well one Mana Tide Totem so you don't find yourself with nothing to play.
White Eyes is a fantastic taunt that will give you a high tempo super taunt later in the game.
Aya Blackpaw is pivotel to the deck as a much needed tempo tool to produce your Golems as well as increasing there stats especially in Shaman where your Jade cards are limited.
The late game is pretty self explanatory the Golems will slowly start to grow in power,Hex will deal with any trouble you run into. Staples such as Rag and a Windrunner will disrupt and pressure your opponent allowing you to close out the game.
This deck has fantastic winrates against Jade Druid, Pirate Warrior, Control Priest and most Reno decks but struggles hard against Dragon Priest.
Thank you to anyone who took the time to check out my deck I sincerely hope it helps another player win some games. Have fun on the ladder :)
Edit, Removed Spirit and Flametongue for 2 Jinyu Waterspeaker this makes the deck even more Mid Range I also found Jinyu to be better against aggro as the overload from spirits can negate future turns hard. Synergy with Brann as well.
Great deck! Is White Eyes a must have? he is next on my crafting list and i want to see if i can pack him. I replaced White Eyes & Lotus Agents with Bloodmage Thalnos & Acidic Swamp Ooze.
Yo dudes, I made a video about the deck. I don't have too much to say about the deck, it's a jade shaman deck, it's definitely strong. I like that there are cards such as Lotus Agents, Sylvannas, and etc, cause it's cool to play around with some cards, and they work. Check out my video and leave a comment or two.
Hey man, yeah it's a cool deck, it's nice to experiemnt with some decks. And don't be afraid, keep experimenting and creating new decks, and you are gonna get better that way.
Really awesome deck! Only card I do not have is White Eyes. Could you recommend a substitute while I work on gathering the dust to craft him
Hmm.. I'm missing White Eyes is he worth crafting since I have enough for a few legendries
Alright awesome thanks! I'm just gonna do it, deck looks really interesting to play ;)
Excellent deck; I subbed in a Bloodmage Thalnos for one of the azure drakes just to get an earlier card draw and to maximize the portal earlier
I thinkSylvanas Windrunner can be substituted for Barnes for more early pressure
It is value if we managed to pull out Aya Blackpaw or Ragnaros the Firelord
Cool deck, thanks for posting (: Gonna try this one out tomorrow, bed time now (4:19 am here, whoops).
Cheers and good luck on your climb!
