Proof of Legend Here
Aggro Shaman is with out a doubt one of the strongest decks in the game but many people play it wrong. I think I can offer what I have learned from my climb to #1 and of course do a little bragging :).
Many people see a 1 drop and keep it because it's cheap. But it's important to mulligan for specific one drops that are good in your match-up and don't forget that other cards like totem golem, jade claws, and flame wreathed faceless are easily game winning and should be kept in some match-ups.
Southsea Deckhand is a one drop that does summon Patches the Pirate so you would think it would be great, but If you summon it on turn 1 against another pirate deck then all they have to do is play a pirate and trade in their Patches the Pirate and you're left with a mere 1/1 on the board and your opponent has the tempo.
Southsea can be kept in combination with Spirit Claws and Jade Claws to take advantage of the charge and it can be kept against reno decks if you have Flametongue Totem for the purpose of countering Doomsayer.. If you play Southsea Deckhand on turn 1 and then they play Doomsayer, Flametongue Totem enables you to kill it.
A 4 mana 7/7 turns out is pretty good. Especially against the classes that hae a hard time dealing with it. Renolock has only Blastcrystal Potion, druid has only Mulch and the occassional Naturalize, renopriest only has Shadow Word: Death, renomage has only Polymorph.
However doing nothing until turn 4 is not going to be good enough to win most games so it's important to realize when the perfect dream curve isn't going to work out and you need to try for 1 drops.
It's also important to realize that this card can completely lose you the game in some matchups. for example versus rogue they can play a minion and Preparation Sap and now they have the board and you're overloaded for 2 mana.
I'll go more in depth If the deck gets enough attention :)
Is there a spot for Leeroy in this deck?
This deck is great against aggro, but the moment you face a warlock, priest, or mage, they out control you with heals and taunts the majority of the time. Went on an 8 game win streak against exclusively aggro decks, then everything I've faced since has been control, 7 losses straight.
I am literally the worst SMOrc player ever XD !
Can you sub Patches for anything? I don't have it and it's in so many diff aggro decks atm -- Maybe this deck w/Aya instead?
Stonetusk Boar> Patches
You can choose Leper gnome
A whole lot of nope on this deck at rank 5.
yet another aggro deck from another son of a street worker. keep doing these guys, because your one digit iq's are not enough for anything else.
using commas and periods... but not using caps ? not sure is srs on the IQ talk buddy
Contemplated trading: Lost Game.
Always went face: Won.
Face played taunt: Cheated.
We need those in depth strategies please :)
its not the purpose of the deck
Played 6 games at rank 14 with this deck. All against Dragon priest with Mass Dispell, Justicar and taunts. I stood no chance.
This deck should absolutely shit on all rank 14 to rank 8 and all be very easy matches. If you continue to see control, tech in either a Hex or Aya.
any sub for patches?
any sub for patches?
Leper gnome
lol, its just one card that have a little impact on the game, you dont skip a whole deck just for it, its not malygos on malydruid
i don't play that kind of shit anyway so there isnt any problem for me ^^
Adorable! Cancer deck. A nice Cancer deck. The Shaman Plague continues.
