This is the deck i used to hit rank 4 with a streak from rank 15. I just lost 4-5 times. It felt like the deck has different answers for every different opponent so i wanted to share it.
Against aggro decks you got so many early minions and Feral Spirit. Just go #YOLO against aggro decks and keep doing value trades. Once you evolve your minions things get so much easier.
Against control decks you have ability to reduce cost of minions in your hand, so you can keep the board half full. The biggest issue that you have to manage carrefully is the Brawl. You must do trades and keep his board empty but you shouldnt go #YOLO before your opponent plays at least one copy of Brawl. You can easily bait it with your little totems and one or two good minions. Then you can play your reduced cost minions and go #YOLO.
Card comments&replacements:
Evolve: Instead of this deck, go and play CS:GO
Primal Fusion: Flametongue Totem. They do almost the same thing, your choice.
Rockbiter Weapon: Has a good synergy with Doomhammer and its pretty good to clear 2mana 3 health drops
Jeweled Scarab: It sounds stupid however this is the MVP in this deck. Shaman has too many situational 3 mana spells like Hex against a big minion or Lightning Storm against zoo decks or Healing Wave against aggro decks. Also when it is evolved it becomes a 4 mana minion which brings a huge tempo to your board. Never underestimate the power of Jeweled Scarab.
Tunnel Trogg: Can be replaced by Argent Squire however against aggro decks Tunnel Trogg is much better
Totem Golem: 3/4 minion for 2 mana? U still need an explanation?
Feral Spirit: Double 2/3 TAUNTs for 3 mana? Jesus.
Hex: An enemy C'Thun or Sylvanas Windrunner which becomes a frogg. Any better satisfaction?
Lightning Storm: You have to play this card against zoo lock. Then u will understand its deep meaning.
Tuskarr Totemic: 3/2 minion + a hero power totem for 3 mana? Not bad. 3/2 and 3/4 minion for 3 mana?!?!?!!? JESUS.
Master of Evolution: Can be replaced by a golden Master of Evolution
Doomhammer: Some games get so slow and your opponent clears whatever you play one you lose the control of the board. I play one copy of Doomhammer to end those games with a potential Rockbiter Weapon combo
Bloodlust: If you have 3 or 4 minions, it is quite good, if you have 5 or more minions its deadly. One copy is quite enough.
Thunder Bluff Valiant: This deck heavily depends on totems and one copy fits well.
Fire Elemental: Pretty good minion. One copy can be replaced by a Sylvanas Windrunner
Nerubian Prophet: Pretty good against slow decks. It is a 6 mana minion which turns into a 7 mana minion with evolve. Key target for the evolve along with Jeweled Scarab
Thing from Below: A better version of Nerubian Prophet. It is good against slow decks, it is way too good against aggro decks. Its cost also decreases even while it is not in your hand. It feels really good to draw a 0 cost 5/5 taunt when playing against an aggro deck.
Play Strategy: #YOLO
With a single exception for Warrior, you can go #YOLO if you have Evolve. Against warrior, dont play Nerubian Prophet&Thing from Below and keep baiting him to play brawl. When he plays brawl you can play these two for low costs and evolve. He will regret playing that brawl. If he plays another brawl, that means your opponent is a f***ing lucky b****rd. So you must start not pushing end turn button. Play your cards and let it wait with you. His luck may beat you however it takes at least 10 minutes.
I know there was so similar decks, however i havent seen any evolve shaman recently in the ladder. I tried, it works pretty good and i wanted to just remind you there are still different good decks. Im so bored of seeing the same decks.
I appreciate your upvote if you like the deck&guide
This is a really fun deck. I really like the evolve mechanic and wanted a decent deck. I was using the built in recipe but it wasn't working as well as I liked. This is the evolve deck I was looking for.
Cry TT^TT when you play against a deck that uses doomsayers
Maybe it's the player? Loosing to priest in 2k16 is wrong
I'm not losing to priest, but to warlock, warrior ... against warlock you're to much lightning storm dependent if they don't come then you're doomed
Any replacements for Fire Elemental?
Aggro Shaman
Really liking the deck so far. started using it for the new season and so far I have 7 wins and 3 losses. lost to two shamens and one priest.
Very nice deck if you haven't check it out in action
sorry to spam up your comments, mate. This deck is really fun to play though, the Evolve mechanic can give you some really cool outcomes. I had this guy before that was like a knife juggler, but froze stuff instead, never even seen that before. The RNG was giving me mad synergies (Had a knife juggler on the same row from this as well)
Do you know why the Scarab goes up to level 4 when you evolve it though, is it not a 2 card? (it;s probably a 3 and I'm just being daft)
making this now. after getting that gold doomhammer I can make the deck for 940, not bad.
dude, I just got my DoomHammer in 100g pack and Tirion Fordling was in the same pack, proper jaw dropper. I have the screen shot as proof! ;)
I can make this deck a lot cheaper now I have the epic.... Also you know any pally decks i could make now I have tirion that wouldn't take all that much more dust to build... I know nothing about that class so far, never even played pally in an MMO.
how are the mulligans for this deck?
do you have any videos please? I am very intrigued by this deck, I have only been playing the game a little over the week, and have been playing zoo lock mostly (and some mage at the very start) I could finish this deck for dust i already have, but I just want to make sure before spending it.
It looks like a good budget deck, my other option would probably be pirate warrior... do you have any advice at all? if I could see this being played it would help a lot.
nice deck, but i have th worst mulligans ever with this deck :(
i beat Baron Geddon and Majordomo on heroic with this deck
+1
Pretty sure it's an adventure reward. Can't be crafted.
you unlock them by reaching level 10 on shamen. they can not be uncrafted or gotten rid of
The first deck I do not mind winning or losing.
So i have full board and my opponent has 2 life. 1 mana, why not evolve? Doomsayer!!!
I would evolve again :)
Be very careful if you evolve 1 cost cards.
Hehe. "The end is coming!"
Have been trying it for a few matches and oughta admit I find it quite fun to play
