You really thought I had something interesting to say at the bottom of my posts?
if shamans only use standard card, why are they in Wild? Isn't it more rewarding to win in a more relevant format? Why shaman? What are you looking for in Wild you can't get in Standard..

Not sure why it is controversial to play standard decks in wild. Some builds don't rely on cycled out cards or even have any room for them.
Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.
Well you know, when you play ladder at some point you hit the wall where your win rate stays at 50%. So it's not that i lose so much , it's just that there are so many shamans which are just a bad match up for my deck in choice. If they weren't there my winrate would actually go up a few percents. I play the deck which is visible in my signature, and it's one of those decks that heavely rely on taking the initiative and dominating the board, like zoo and secret paladin.
I don't really hold a grudge to shamans, let alone what is a shaman player? They are people who aren't even playing shaman as main, but just people who play the deck because you easily win with it and they often switch to another popular deck when the meta changes. There is this significant difference dividing the community in two groups, and those are players who don't like to take the easy road by only playing what they made themselves/what seems really interesting (despite the fact it's not the most intelligent choice), and those who only play the game to win and use the most obvious strategical way to do that.
Okay just kidding, many people do both, switching from time to time. But you get my point :P
Midrange shaman is good in wild. I am not sure how you can say it is a free win with priest. Roughly equal imo, depending on how many board clears priest is running.
N'Zoth Rogue as well can paint the floor with them cause Nerubian Egg and Raptor synergies allow it to swarm if they dare to AoE until Argus comes down. Shaman can't handle too well Shredders.
I do see them handling Secret Paladin fairly well tho, Hex and Maelstrom Portal/Lightning Storm are strong counters to it.
Remember playing Control Shaman with Reincarnate shenanigans? No? It was fun, here's a refresher!
I hit legend pretty early in the season with midrange shaman, and i think it's actually much better in wild than in standard.
According to Tempostorm, the top 4 decks in wild are secret pally, zoo, midhunter, and patron warrior. All of these are aggro/midrange decks, but don't have any good ways to come back after a Lightning Storm or Maelstrom Portal. Nzoth isn't a problem if you can hex Savannah Highmane or Sylvanas Windrunner or Tirion Fordring or whatever, and the rest can be easily cleared with spell damage boosted aoe.
The only really bad matchup for me was freeze mage (probably 25% winrate) because Eater of Secrets doesn't automatically win you the game if you haven't dealt enough damage or have no room to play him. Nzoth Priest isn't that bad honestly, as long as you don't play into their board clears, but it is probably slightly unfavored.
Honestly, the only non-control deck I've played that was favored against Shaman was Midrange Hunter (Before Call of the Wild Nerf) because you could actually win the early game with Mad Scientist+ Freezing Trap/Snipe, clear their board with a Knife Juggler and Unleash the Hounds combo, and finish them off with Call of the Wild before you go into topdeck mode.
Sad you say? I think its great that they can taste their own medicine :3
midrange shaman is balance in wild
not op as standard but it's just good
even it use standard list or standard -rag +boom it's still strong
claw+portal can clear muster, claw+token can proc secret, hex is cheap
shaman have a lot of tool to stop secret paladin building board
mid shaman can take board control back with lightning+totem, thing from below, thunder bluff
unless it is a secret paladin top deck mode
wild freeze mage is alot stronger, it's hard counter but luckily no one playing it
priest, renolock, warrior, anyfin, hunter are stronger in wild
why mid shaman still good for wild legend
-easy and simple to play
-u can farm rank5+ noob until u hit legend due lack of player
