Ask questions, will answer apart from what to replace
This deck is not good in the current meta. If Loyan can't figure out a good shaman deck, then we're all screwed. RIP Shaman.
no loyan bad deck !
Hmm... thanks for the deck! For Unstable Evolution i'm testing something different:

I think it's not a good idea to play this spell in a traditionnal Evolve deck: Evolve affect all your board and upgrade for 1, so for abuse this mechanic, you must play a lot of minions with bad stats, so you're sure your Evolve is gainful.
But with Unstable Evolution, the more minions you hit, less is profitable because it's a very expensive Evolve, so you want hit several times very few minions. And as you're hitting them several times, it's not mandatory for them to have bad starting stats because you're upgrading them a lot.
This spell in a deck with normal minions work very well.
I disagree, I think Unstable Evolution is great in evolution decks! If say you do a turn 6 Doppelgangster into Evolve (or turn 5 + The Coin) your minions are likely to stick, or at least have some survive. On the following turn you can spend all your mana evolving them up to 8+ stopping at better effects or stats as you go.
It really gets more powerful the later in the game it gets, if you can get any number of minions to stick from the turn previous you can go ham with 10 mana evolving your board up to have the best stats you can manage. Corridor Creeper and Thing from Below allow you to do this to an even greater degree.
I don't say it doesn't work in this kind of deck, i say it's not the best way to use it.
Just curious, what kind of Shaman deck would you run it in then? I've only seen the typical evolve list on ladder at this point (well I saw totem Shaman early on in the expansion, but they've kind of disappeared...)
I don't speak about the ladder, where shaman is nearly extinct, i speak about this card.
What i say is Evolve MUST be play in a deck where you play a lot of minions quickly with bad stats, for maximum value. Anywhere else is pretty bad or less effective.
Unstable Evolution can be played somewhere else, because you don't need a lot of minions on board or bad stats for this. You play a Battlecry shaman? Elemental? Jade? Freeze? Then if you want you can add this spell, because he don't have specific conditions for optimal play.
Tried this deck, ran into 4 priests in a row and gave up. Got board cleared every single time I had more than 3 minions out. They even busted out the spirit lash and pyromancers. Corridor creeper seems a lot better than I expected though.

Thanks for sharing, like it a lot so far! :)
