Honestly not a big fan of sir finly and a big fan of bru'kan, but that's just me. What I do think would be a fun pick for this deck is Amalgam of the Deep, since it can hit a naga, elemental, beast or murloc. Plus it is cheap enough to use with bolner for great effect!

amalgam of the deep was one of the cards i ran in the initial draft of this deck, so i see where you are coming from but i soon realised that it didn't really make much sense. this deck does not contain any support for any race, so there is no synergy to support any minions it creates. furthermore, it makes Crushclaw Enforcer so much less valuable as it changes its chance to not draw a key card from 1/4 to 3/4.

we really really want crushclaw to be tutoring azhsara and teacher, so much so that ive considered running only one copy of it, and removing zola.

Okani is just pretty weak 

yeah! 

Quote from ragnarosismyingameusername >>

okani on his own is pretty weak but doubling his battlecry or repeating it with mccaw will get very annoying for your opponent very quickly. in this deck i reckon you want to stop spells most of the time, since we can freeze minions.

i do not think slimescale diver is weak in this deck. is the the only card that can hard remove a big threat.

i am, im just giving my reasoning as to why i did not include those cards.

not every card in the deck has to have synergy, sometimes you just have to stay alive. all of these cards fill that gap in the deck

i do not want taelan to draw snowfall. i also do not know i would remove for snowfall.

I think this deck will be very solid but i want to know what other people think and want to hear suggestions of what cards i could run.

scroll as a cheap spell to trigger naga effects and gets me more frost.

geyser to help with naga but the dredge also helps us get the cards we need when we need them

finley is here because the shaman hero power is really bad. he also can serve as a cheap way to trigger bolner

windchill slows the opponent, activates naga effects, gives power to glashier and draws cards.

gavel will almost always get the full reduction which really helps make brann and bolner more flexible.

bolner gives us our win conditions multiple times. ashara for multiple relics, okani to block both a spell and a minion, teacher to get a swarm of students (each student will trigger the teacher again giving you another student). 

frostbite is a great removal spell which also acts as a cheap spell for our nagas, frost to help glashier and can slow our opponent if we get the secondary effect

sleetbreaker gives us windchill, and acts as a cheap battlecry for bolner

brann is brann. do i really have to explain why he is here?

mccaw is great on every battlecry in this deck except for finley. more students, more relics, more glashier board fills, more okani disruption

crushclaw tutors for azshara, zola and teacher, three of the best cards in the deck. you could only run one copy because it really sucks when it draws itself, but there's not really anything great to replace it with. also it's kind of a cheap battlecry for bolner?

slimescale diver is a great way to slow our opponent down and to get rid of big threats when we need to

zola gets us more of the cards we really like. its important to remember you can also use it on colossuses created by ashara. she also lets us play brann and bolner riskier, by giving us multiple copies of them.

okani on his own is pretty weak but doubling his battlecry or repeating it with mccaw will get very annoying for your opponent very quickly. in this deck i reckon you want to stop spells most of the time, since we can freeze minions.

teacher is beyond crazy in this deck.
looking at 22 the shaman spells that it can teach, 3 of them are useless, 4 of them are mid, and 15 of them are really good. this means that each discovery option has about a 70% chance of being very powerful.
(noteable high rolls include far sight, ancestral spirits and tidal surge.)
the students are incredibly versatile in this deck. they are cheap battlecries to trigger bolner,  cast spells for ashara, learn frost spells for glashier, draw you cards, control the board, heal you or burst your opponent if they are low.
also, think about playing teacher with brann. not only do you get two students, but their battlecries are doubled as well!
or student with bolner! the student would reactivate the teachers battlecry, giving you another student for a loop! at ten mana thats 4 students, but if you had bolner out the turn before that is 6!
i cannot stress enough how powerful the students are. we would still want to play them if they were three mana, but they aren't - they are 1!

don't stand in the fire is board clear. it is also very useful against colossuses as it destroys many of them entirely, and the others are left with very few hit points making them easy to clean up.

azshara is the card the deck is built around. take the horn to get a cheap colossus, take the ring to get a cheap horn, take the dagger to finish of your opponent, take the stone to trigger the dagger many times.

tealan tutors for azshara and glashier, both of which we really want to find. taunt is also very useful in this deck as it helps protect cards we want to stick, such as brann and bolner. (i was thinking of running treasure guard for this very reason but i feel it's not worth making crushclaw weaker)

we would be running many frost spells anyway, so glashier is an easy choice. 



cards you could consider running and why i have chosen not to

brukan: this deck does not need brukan to win.

glugg: our board will either be not full enough for glugg to benefit from, or too full thanks to glashier and glugg will not spawn his parts. he also makes taelans tutor effect much less reliable.

treasure guard: it makes crushclaws tutor effect much less powerful. if the meta is super fast, you might want to swap out both crushclaws for this, or run it instead of some of the greedier cards, like zola and finley.

rustrot viper: i really want to run this card as i am very scared of swordfish, but am unsure of what to remove for it. i will have to wait and test the deck to see.

Quote from Kaladin >>

I'm guessing what will happen is Da Undatakah will shuffle back into your deck with a copy of "Deathrattle: Shuffle this into your deck. It keeps any enchantments," then a copy of Da Undatakah will resummon as a text-less 8/5.  When you play the shuffled Da Undatakah again, it will have the Immortal Prelate's deathrattle still, in addition to adding three from the deathrattle pool. 

 ok so meme dream. what would you put in this deck.

I was thinking of a making a meme deck and i wanted to make da undatakah paladin with recurring villain but i have a question. if it shuffles itself into your deck due to immortal prelate does the recurring villain deathrattle trigger?

yo this deck is 52% winrate. what should i change to improve it. please read comments cos people will post the same thing twice

Quote from Varron2 >>

I like it, except for the minion transformations. If you don't want any cheesing with the Hero Power Reductions, I'd just change the text on the Hero Power to "If you have 10 mana crystals, Destroy the Enemy Hero".

It's a very unique effect, but I think you are warping too many mechanics to fit this card in and balance it. As for power balance, unless it's exploitable, it is underwhelming, but any Instant Wins usually will be by design. 

 

 Nope i checked every card it is NOT exploitable, but you are right that hero power would be better

Quote from GnammyH >>

 

Make a card that makes something ordinary feel extremely cool. Like Light Yagami eating chips.

 i here is a rock, as a hearthstone card and its undeniably cool

next is a card that is bonkers broken, but cool, like actually COOL

Quote from GnammyH >>

 This is a card from my custom expansion and uses a new keyword: Curse.

 

 Does True love undo silence? if so here is cursed hag.

In retrospect the deathrattle is a bit weak so make that 6 health for the maiden

 (if you wanna use this card or the idea feel free to)

next is uhhh a card referencing memes

Next: A card  with a BALANCED "kill the enemy hero"  text

No they aren't. The problem were the 5/5s. 

Those are death-by-suicide incarnate

 they were summoned by the the totem
