Turns out Elemental Shaman just beats every deck in the meta right now If you curve you win board against the other aggro decks You aggro down Priest and Druid and have Hex on a 5/6 if you need it A lot of decks are board based right now so if you can roll a freeze you auto a win
At the time of 81% WR it was from when I started playing the Deck D4 rank to when I hit Legend and that was 16 games, 13-3
I'm currently hovering in the 2k-3k Legend Rank and still holding a high WR 67%. 26-13
It has a VERY good WR against the most played Meta Decks in order or easiest to hardest Mech Mage, Naga Mage, Pirate Warrior, Druid. It is an auto win against Shellfish Priest as well to point where Priest will literally insta concede sometimes when they see Shaman pop up as the opponent.
So if your going for Legend I think this deck will crush at the 70-80% range cus you're mostly seeing tryhard no brains on Mech Mage and Pirate Warrior. Rogue, DH, and Pally can be dicer matchups so when they get back in the meta it's not solid a stomp deck.
But I am real HYPE on it, cus it feels sleeper OP, no one is playing it, no one is teching against it, and it hits a real sweet spot against the meta decks right now.
Burn shaman is better because the matchup spreads are very similar but the benefit is that it smashes druid a lot more consistently. Burn shaman has all the freeze ability without the hyper aggro we are trying to move on from.
PS. Dont post 28 old card decks after a new expansion cuz its going to get downvotes regardless of quality!

I play a Burn Shaman as well that I really like and actually has like 1% better WR now that I've been playing in Legend+
It's a meta call for sure. I still think in the d5-Legend meta that I was seeing, and I imigine it still it is Elemental is a blunt instrument that blasts through Pirate Warrior, Mech Mage, and Druid
I think the Mech Mage match is real good for Shaman either way, Pirate Warrior is much better with Elemental Shaman and the Druid match up Elemental is working better for me, Burn in theory can go over the top easier after Druid pops off, but Elemental wins on turn 6-8 before Druid ever gets a chance to pop off, and in practice as Druid players get smarter, they can set up turns where they get 40+ health my Burn Shaman is not doing great against them buy Elemental is doing well.
I think Burn is better in a more diverse meta, it's a more flexable deck, and better against Paladin and Demon Hunter

Just one new card, and literally the one ran pretty much everywhere else. No thanks.
That's fair, it's not the most exciting list, other than if you stuck getting to legend and want to bully Pirate Warrior and Mech Mage.

Looks good, and I am eager to try it out. I had forgotten about elemental shaman!
