At a time like this when players are flocking to an archetype they perceive to be strong, but decks are still not refined enough to paint an accurate pictuer of the meta, the wise player doesn't waste time complaining on the forums and calling for nerfs on the second day of the expansion.
The wise player chooses a deck that beats the flavor of the week and farms some wins on ladder. In fact, that is exactly how the meta will eventually correct itself. It is the only way the meta will correct itself.

It does feel to be a step or two above the other classes.
Specially when you can take the full power of the Galakrond Battlecry and still have the Quest Hero Power (opponents are now throwing Galakrond for just 4/4s. And it's doable to get the 8/8s before Quest completion (2 freezes and the 5 mana, or two times the 5 mana) and then complete the quest and then get the quest hero power, and then get the 8/8s or 4/4s again with Shudderwock.
If the game somehow hasn't ended yet, double battlecry and lackey or burn them on...
But the thing that REALLY needs to be nerfed ASAP is Faceless Corruptor. And not just because of Shaman. What the actuall hell were Team 5 smoking?
I play Galakrond Shaman and Quest Shaman myself because I had almost all the cards because I have played Shaman in Uldum and in Rise of Shadows (It is my favorite class). So this is good for me in a way but I must agree that Shamans are OP. The games are now either you win or you play against other Shaman and the rng and mulligan draw decides the game. There are a few counters but even they can't always counter these decks. I hope they will not nerf Shaman but I am sure they will.
According to HS and some refinements I heard, the quest might actually be hurting the deck, incredibly. With the OP Faceless, Dragon Pack and chunking out armies of 8/8s and 2/1s, turns out card draw is actually much better. Just think that this shit will get even more refined in the coming days.
Not even 24 hours and we have a lot doom callers shouting for nerfs... I have won 4 games against quest shaman with a thief galakronk rogue

I broke down and crafted shaman
It's like playing the game on easy mode, really quick rank five after not playing for a few months
Obviously needs a nerf
just play whizbang and have fun

Shudderwock is the real problems IMO.
i'm done, cya in april idiots
enjoy shamanstone
Turns out Brann Bronzebeard as a Hero Power & instant 32/32 with Rush on board for 9 is pretty good.
Don't even need the quest tbh. Drop quest, focus on survivability and getting galakrond as early as possible

It is the best deck in the game, by 4.1% (with is huge), according to HSReplay. Personally, I like the deck, but I think the quest will get nerfed.

just make invoke not a battlecry, Jesus it was so simple. It WORKS as battlecry but it's not.
Making invoke not a battlecry wouldn't make much difference, there's a version without the quest that's just as strong.
Looks balanced to me : https://hsreplay.net/decks/56GntMFerGAQWlPzp0iZY/#tab=overview
Just play Pirate Warrior and stop whining. Yes, Galakrond Shaman seems super busted, but stop complaining. The meta isn’t even stable yet.
Pirate warrior dies from shaman, he can't establish board control.
Go Play Solitaire , Doos !
