If you don't have either I would say just save your dust. If you have both I would lean towards Electra, as you can usually get damage at a better rate than Leeroy. Also Electra can give you damage that goes over taunt, and is less of a dead card in early turns than Leeroy.

And it's no bother at all, I'm happy to see the interest!

Fungalmancer could definitely work, though this deck has the advantage of being able to use burn spells for reach while odd rogue and paladin are pretty much always relying on the board (hence the Fungalmancer as a curve-topper there).

That really means a lot to me, thanks for the support :)

Thanks for the kind words, and congrats on Legend!

Hey you can check out the updates I made above! If you don't like Arcane Watcher, swapping them for Leeroy Jenkins and Loatheb wouldn't be a bad idea, though I personally am not a fan of playing 5-drops in the deck. Bringing back the Mana Tide Totem and/or Earth Shock is another option.

Glad you've been enjoying the deck so much, I certainly think it breaks the norm of "brain-dead aggro". It has so many decisions! Keep your future turns in mind for mulligan, overloading, and totem choices, and try to give your opponent's as few outs as possible. Some games you'll draw the wrong half of the deck, but sometimes the opponent will do the same!

It is indeed! Sorry for not getting back sooner, I wanted to test it out more and was definitely not disappointed.

Don't be afraid to play her with just 4 or 5 mana. If you need to just get some stats on the board and don't have anything else to play, just getting 1 or 2 spells from her is still solid. Think of her like a Marshspawn that can get you more value if you desperately need it.

Sorry to hear it didn't go well for you

Hey, everyone's climb starts somewhere! I love that this deck has been fun for you, and that it's been annihilating more res priests :P

Also glad you found the vids helpful! I'm working on a new one rn and will post it here when finished.

That's high praise to say you enjoyed a deck of your least favorite class, glad to hear it!

Probably the biggest thing to keep in mind for this deck is planning overloads, though just picking totems can be a hard decision at times as well. I like to say that the core of shaman gameplay in general is just playing into highrolls though.

DH is certainly a hard matchup, Warglaives of Azzinoth is especially brutal. But not at all unwinnable, I was able to get a postive winrate versus them on my climb. I'll usually keep a Totemic Slam or Serpentshrine Portal to help me fight for board on the first few turns, and try to force them to use their face for removal. That allows the burn to finish out the game.

Very good results, even considering I don't have Instructor Fireheart. I did not expected such results in an aggro creature/spell deck. I found it's a good idea to include bloodlust, considering you always have 3-4 minions on board. It runs fine.

Thanks for this deck! Hit legend with it with minimal effort. Fast games with constant pressure.

Hey everyone!

I went and tried this deck and I at the start I was very surprised that we are running Arcane Watcher since I kinda expected that it is the deck that gets the hero power to 1.. yea I know pretty stupid :D I did not craft them though since I was missing them I just replaced them and it worked fine without it as well. I have to admit that the last class I would expect benefiting from Baku is going to be shaman but it is quite strong! Definitely something refreshing to play.

Hope you can enjoy the gameplay video :)

cool deck

Hey Anura, I just hit Legend. Thanks for all your help! :D

I dont have Instructor Fireheart (or Lady Vashj for that matter).  Are they core?  I could craft one or both of them if needed, but i am always afraid of crafting a card that has use in only 1 deck.  Is running Ras Frostwhisper a good alternative or is the 5 mana cost too high?  Thanks in advance for any answers!

Playing HS since beta, always too lazy for the grind. With this deck i hit legend first time ever, felt rly flawless and easy going. Thanks man. I still played it wih the earth shocks. took out one manatide for lady vash. Great Job :-)

As promised here is 3 games from the stream. Thanks again for the fun deck man! It slays this meta! Hope you enjoy.

Great Job Man!!!! This deck is so much fun! I love the idea behind all the overload and Baku the Mooneater. I replaced one of the Arcane Watcher with Lady Vashj. This deck is so viable in the current meta and I am so happy Shaman got some love again!

I will be playing this deck live on my Twitch Stream tonight at 10pm mountain time! Join me to watch my ladder climb to Legend!! I will post the highlights of the stream on here as well and I will give you a shout out kght7 for coming up with such an amazing idea for a deck! Hopefully it will help your views on the deck here to help support making more incredibly viable decks!

This deck is pretty good. It takes a little skill but its nice that Shaman has a Tier 1 deck for once.
