I've got a priest, warlock, and hunter deck that have taken me from r5 to r1 so far. All of them have Hungry Crabs, and so far I'm very content with that decision. I'm sorry I don't know how to create decks in Hearthpwn, but here are the lists. 2x each card unless legendary or noted.
SHHHH! PRIEST
Forbidden Words / Hungry Crab / Northshire Cleric/ Power Word: Shield
Ancient Watcher / Dalaran Librarian / EVIL Conscripter
Convincing Infiltrator / Harrison Jones / Quartz Elemental
1x Cabal Shadow Priest / Mojomaster Zihi
Obviously the silence priest is not an original concept, but I have added the Quartz Elemental and slanted the deck more towards aggro. With the Hungry Crabs, it can fight the murloc shamen well, and any deck trying to set up a Plot Twist combo or anything particularly slow gets absolutely run over. Zihi is the cherry on the sundae for fighting combo.
OLD SCHOOL HAND LOCK
Hungry Crab / Mortal Coil
1x Acidic Swamp Ooze / Doomsayer
1x Mind Control Tech / Shadow Bolt / 1x Voodoo Doll
I avoided Unleash the Hounds in favor of Hungry Crabs because you'd rather not UtH with Zul'jin. Yes, the Hungry Crabs help a lot. I haven't lost with this deck yet, but I haven't had to play a lot of warrior with it yet.
Enjoy. The Hungry Crabs are drooling.

Helpful Clarification on Forbidden Topics for Hearthstone Forums:
Enjoying Americans winning in the Olympics is forbidden because it is political. A 14 plus page discussion of state-sponsored lawsuits against a multi-national corporation based on harassment, discrimination, and wrongful death allegations is apparently not political enough to raise an issue.
I'm also including 2 crabs in my decks. Murloc Shaman seems to be the new Odd Paladin, with far more reload, value generation and board resistance. It's just insane when Underbelly Angler generates himself as it gives the Shaman too much staying power.
Wouldn't recommend playing the Warlock deck now. Everyone is netdecking control shaman, and the warlock can't keep up with the value generators or the fatigue game.
The other two are, if anything, doing better over the last couple hours.

The great thing about hungry crabs in this meta is that many decks that are not necessarily Murloc decks still run Hench-Clan Hogsteed, which provide a tasty 1/1 murloc for the crab to gobble up.
Yeah, the meta has changed quite a bit in the past half day, as it always does.
Up at rank 2 area, people are actually trying to get to legend, which means you're seeing a lot of Rally Zoo Lock and Token Druid. It looks as though the full on murloc shaman is not holding up as well as was originally expected.
We'll see how things settle out.
Personally, I'm finding Control Shaman absolutely absurd right now. It can board control fairly well against the aggro decks, and I just outhealed 10 bombs last game.
Also, if you save Archivist to the last second and save Shudderwock till ten turns later (something I've had to do twice already), you can have your opponent deep in fatigue while still going strong.

Forbidden Words / Hungry Crab / Northshire Cleric/ Power Word: Shield
Ancient Watcher / Dalaran Librarian / EVIL Conscripter
Arcane Watcher / 1x Faceless Rager / Madame Lazul
Hench-clan Shadequill / 1x Spellbreaker / Unsleeping Soul

1x Acidic Swamp Ooze / Doomsayer
1x Mind Control Tech / Shadow Bolt / 1x Voodoo Doll
Hellfire / Proud Defender / 1x Spellbreaker / Twilight Drake
Harrison Jones / Zilliax
Aranasi Broodmother / Siphon Soul
Arch-Villain Rafaam / Lord Godfrey
Twisting Nether
Mountain Giant
This is the weakest of the three, but it has some solid win conditions, and Rafaam has the handy side effect of erasing a deck full of bombs.
ZUL'JIN IS STILL SCARY
Hungry Crab / Springpaw
Explosive Trap / 1x Freezing Trap / 1x Rat Trap / Scavenging Hyena / 1x Snake Trap / 1x Snipe
Animal Companion / 1x Deadly Shot / Eaglehorn Bow / Kill Command / Master's Call
1x Dire Frenzy
1x Baited Arrow / Subject Nine / 1x Tundra Rhino
Savannah Highmane / Unleash the Beast
Zul'jin
