I guess it can be a good inclusion to Malygos shaman:

You can play Eureka! to summon Malygos + 2* Lightning Bolt + 2* Totemic Smash and if that isn't enough you can reload next turn with Krag'wa, the Frog. Usually the 30 damage combo will not be enough in slower match ups, where you actually have time to set up this follow up.

What do you guys think about that?

 Eureka! would have 50% chance of pulling the Frog. Not a very good idea

Twilight Drake is just way too good to drop man! Drake on 4 is the nightmare of priests, and it's a killer in about any matchup.

My list is very similar to this one, but I cut some of the early game: -2 Mortal Coil and -1 Tainted Zealot, for +2 Twilight Drake and +1 Alexstrasza to improve the priest matchup. It still destroys aggro due to the amount of AOE in the deck, and as a plus I manage to win a fair bit of Priests matchs, the times when they don't draw the nuts. Edit: Alex saved me in several aggro matchups as well, thought it would be worth mentioning. This deck tends to exhaust aggro resources pretty easily due to the AOEs, so most of the times your opponent won't have value to burst 15 health by turn 9.

But that's just my opinion, and since Twilight Drake is one of my favorite cards I may be a little biased =P. I guess if I see less priests in ladder I'm going to give your list a try.

100% from 20 to 12.  It was a pretty funny ride.

Dragon Priest don't have slots for this tho. Some lists don't manage to play even Twilight Drake man =P

This card WON'T see much play guys! This is only insurance tech card. Stop going crazy about it.

Also, i'm sick of this kind of "must include" answers : how can i build a deck based on synergies, when i have to sacrifice more & more deckslots to things like Skulking Geist, Eater of Secrets (because Ice Block) or weapon destruction (Atiesh & pirates) ?

It's a card only good against a 1 specific deck that 1 specific class plays.

 

Eater of Secrets wasn't played. This won't see play except MAYBE in tournaments as a tech card in conquest format in a specifically anti-druid deck.

 

Also worth noting when Gadgetzan rotates out next year; this card will be completely worthless.

Literally Meta-Defining lol. You can also remove Evolves from token shaman, Shield slam and Whirlwind from control warrior, and Soulfire from discolock. You also mess up combo Inerfire-Lyra priest.

Not to say that if there ever was a chance to Quest Paladin to be a thing, this shuts it down very harshly. Very good vs secrets to btw.

Edit: Forgot about Ice Lance, really good against this think. Can remove Hallucination, Cold Blood, Conceal and Petals from Miracle too.

This will always be bad as long Eater of Secrets is a card we can play. 8 mana is too much commitment.

This will be extremely stupid once Old Gods rotates out of standard tho

This is to expensive for token shaman! This is not an aggro card.

Maybe a new Control Elemental Shaman may arise with this card. Elemental are really, really good cards to evolve in general. Think Kalimos, Servant of Kalimos, Blaze Caller, Al'akir, Stone Sentinel, Frost Elemental and Fire Elemental

This card is good, but not as good as people think. Evolve works well with token because it's cheap. You can flood and evolve in the same turn.

This card is much more mid-range/control than evolve. This will be pretty good in Elemental Shaman, but Control Shaman relies to much in Deathrattles and Overstated minions (White Eyes 10/10, Earth Elemental) to run this. Shaman mid-high end minions tend to be VERY efficient stat-wise. Maybe the new Freeze Shaman may want to run this card, I don't now.

This card is AWESOME! O course it's horrible if you play it on curve, but if you play in end game and steal 3-6 cards form your opponent it's probably pretty good value.

Not to say that if you do play it on curve, the meme potential is stupidly good to XD

Druid: Fandral, mire keeper and swipe
Priest: Auchenai and Priest of the Feast. Priest doesn't need this card regardless.
Warlock: Blastcrystal, hellfire, and shadowflame for control and Crystal Weaver, Lakari Fellhound, and Pterrordax for aggro. Argus for both.

It probably will be played in rogue tho.

- 2 ancestral knowledge
- 2 death lord
- 2 mistress of mixtures
- Ooze
- Cairne
+ 2 Far Sight
+ 2 Earth Elementals
+ 1 hex
+ 1 Jinyu Waterspeaker
+ Thalnos
+ Sneeds Old Shredder
+ Sylvanas
This deck is already an aggro crusher, so no need for mistress or ooze (Palys are easy match too).
That's how I like it at least. Maybe another devolve would be cool, cause it's stupidly good against other N'zoth decks.

You're wrong tho.

According to last vicious syndicate, ancestral spirit/reincarnate shaman has top 3 average win-rate in the meta.

Not to say that, from last month, it's the deck with the biggest win-rate increase!
