Well, the title says everything, did any of you reach legend rank with Malygos Shaman?
I am a priest player and I am in love with OTK priest (Prophet Velen/Malygos + Mind Blast), so I started looking for a Malygos deck, the Shaman one is my favourite by far. Now I want to play Shaman and build a Malygos deck, full OTK oriented, but since I never have played this deck and will spend ALL my dust + a ton, I would like to receive some feedback.
The deck I will craft (edited based on Savjz Zeus):
Maybe? You could reach legend with it if you played lots and lots of games but to be honest the deck is not very strong.
If you want to play Malygos my suggestion would be to play malylock instead although it is not an OTK deck. It's more like a midrange deck that sometimes relies on Malygos combo to finish the game, kinda like combo druid. Search for Purple's Malylock from Dreamhack if you are interested.
There is still a lot of aggro so it's a matter of having the mana to stay alive for Ancestors to pull her and cast the spells for the kill. I haven't seen Malygos at all, so I say go for it and surprise them all.
I play Malygos Shaman, with your deck I would take out 1 elemental destruction a frost shock and a lightning bolt and put in a healing wave and 2 big minions probably a taunt
I updated it based on globalist tip and yours, but I dont get why should I put taunts, either they will screw up Joust if they are low mana or be too slow if they are big ones. Maybe Feral Spirit ?
yeah, feral spirit would be better, and taunts to protect your maly from opponents minions
No, you're supposed to Ancestors Call Maly and OTK yuour opponent for 30+ dmg. If you're trying to hide your Maly behind taunts you're playing the Maly OTK deck wrong.
globalist is right, Malygos wont survive a turn. I am still thinking on Feral Spirit , maybe its a good idea against aggro, I can take out one [card]Gadgetzan Auctioneer[/card] for it.
Malygos works best with Rogue and Warlock, mainly because the can draw deep into their deck pretty easily. So, if you want to make this work, you need to put in more card draw (which, Shaman has a reputation for being bad for). Azure Drake and that 2/4 for 4 card...
I try not to add any minion, because this deck is heavily dependant on the Healing Wave 14hp, 4 or 5 mana minions may be too low. But your idea is valid, I think I lack draw too, so maybe add 2 Far Sight and take out 1 Gadgetzan Auctioneer?

No, especially with your deck. Not enough card draw. Doomhammer with 1 Rockbitter?
Look up Savjz's Zeus shaman deck.

This way I will have two answers to aggro decks with Stormforged Axe + Feral Spirit .
