Hello,

Just made it to legend using this deck!

This is the first time I'm posting my deck on Hearthpwn but I found it so useful with the meta atm..


I noticed from rank 5-1 there's a lot of jade druids and exodia mages. Therefore Dirty Rat and Skulking Geist. You might remove your own evolve but I experienced that's better than him getting his jades bigger and you can easy kill him with fatigue now if it gets to that (often I could use 1 or even both evolves before drawing skulking).

A very fun deck and ppl might be surprised since the shamans nowadays are tokens. You can Moat Lurker his big minions like The Lich King and then evolve  Moat Lurker = 7 minion on board and his big minion is gone! Same goes with Barnes with evolve combo if you get your Bonemare you can get a 8 minion in turn 5 or combo in 4 with coin. Or if you're lucky you get your Lich King which you will you a DK card.

Volcano is a great clear for aggro decks since most of them nowadays are using Bittertide Hydra = 24 dmg. Bloodmage Thalnos so you don't have to risk getting a spellpower totem with maelstrom and storm and an extra card.

For some card swappings:

Recently changed a Lightning Storm to Spirit Echo since I found more value in Echo with many combos. You can get some insane cards from your evolve and then Echo your board. Seems better in the long run against priest etc. Instead of storm and the overload.

When it comes to swapping cards there are actually a lot of cards you can choose between to find your playstyle. 

Bloodmage Thalnos can be replaced with Tainted Zealot

The Lich King is a great card have can save you many times but if you don't have him you can try with a Bomb Squad or second Bonemare

Dirty Rat to pull their Archmage Antonidas / Sorcerer's Apprentice. Otherwise with cards like second Devolve  / Saronite Chain Gang or even one more Tidal Surge if facing lots of aggro for the heals :)

Grim Necromancer is a very good tempo card with Evolve if you're lacking some cards.

Only deck I had problems against was Murloc Paladin. But faced more control palas and lots of jades / mages / aggros.

Best of luck on ladder.
