Wondering - how on earth you can put hope in Control Mage? How can mage beat 4 8/8 with 5/2 weapon??
Yes, it is early, decks are not refined. So is Shaman. It evolves, and becomes stronger, it knows already how to incorporate quest - instead of trying to use Galakrond package in quest build.
It has to be nerfed very fast and not a one card nerf will be enough.
Zephyrs and Malygos Flamestrike say high. I’ve been running Reno dragon mage. My only losses to shaman have been in the early game vs an overload variant. Late game mage can make actual threats without relying on a one off battlecry.
My experience is it's easy to steam roll mage with shaman if I get galakrond early, I can kill them before they can stabilize. If I draw bad then yeah mage can be a pain. Still would think shaman us favored overall
I wouldn't do it, it's not extremely competitive and Highlander decks usually cost more than normal decks. Not a great way to spend your resources when you're newish
I disagree mage will be near bottom tier again. Cyclone mage didn't work with flamewaker, it won't work now with chenvaala, etc. Hope I'm wrong though, I suppose it will be fun to play 6 Mana pyroblast
Not sure that Shaman needs a Nerf with evolve going away.
It's a shame blizz was too lazy or incompetent to own up to their mistake of introducing evolve. I haven't played hearthstone much at all since then and I think there are many others like me. Maybe I'll get back into with the new expansion releasing soon

If they direct nerf galakrond do you think theyll possibly offer a dust refund for kronx dragonhoof?

Charge is fine but it's use should be very limited like it is now.
Rush is also fine in theory, but team 5 uses it way too much. There's so many rush minions in the game and it strangles everything else

SHAMAN LIVES TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY!!!

I think it's funny everyone complaining about quest when most shamans are dropping it.
Doubt they are going to nerf anything related to quest.

I'm probably going to get burned, crafted like 3-4 legs 2 days for shaman lol. Hope it doesn't suck after nerfs.

I know things are still shaking out, but according to HsReplay the worst matchup is Holy Wrath Paladin: 49.41%, lol
Look at all that green!

Don't even need the quest tbh. Drop quest, focus on survivability and getting galakrond as early as possible

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

Yeah but shaman invoke generates rush minions that help clear board so not understated at all, in fact overpowered

is there any chance that shaman won't dominate the meta? I don't want to spend money if it's just going to be shaman on top again.
