Hey there,

Playing Shaman right now as a free to play is hard. And as a only Shaman player I have been searching for a Control Deck (I have more fun playing control)

The deck I present here is more oriented for beginners and free to play players, but it can be easily upgraded. So instead of making a guide for different classes I will roughly explain the idea behind the deck, what is there upgrade and what isnt. If this actually turns out succsessful I will consider laying this out, but I have to test myself more.

[Grumble, Worldshaker] and [Murmuring Elemental] are the heart and soul. You want to abuse Battlecrys, Grumble also solves Shamans Card Draw by filling your hand with the minions and then allowing them to be played again. They are must haves.

[Stone Sentinel] is a should have. I only run him once in this list but as soon as I get the dust he will be put in this deck. He gives me most of my wins and saves my ass. He combos with [Murmuring Elemental] and if the taunts stay around [Bloodlust] can close out the game. If you have two, consider dropping a [Servant of Kalimos] or a second [Fire Elemental]. [Blacecaller] is a more aggro, he is also should have, but one can be dropped for Kalimos (which I dont have)

[Fire Plume Harbinger] is a good bonus. He works good with most cards, can combo with the soul of the deck. Also Grumble returning one allows you to play your hand empty.

[Healing Rain] and [Tar Creeper] is the survival plan. And [Far Sight], [Mana Tide Totem] and [Novice Engineer] should give you core card draw.

If you want to run more removal, switch the [Lightning Storm] and [Hot Spring Guardian], I dont have [Maelstorm Portal] so I cant, but against Paladin I wanted one badly.

[Bloodlust] is an alternate wincondtion and [Fire Fly] keep the elementals going. You want the elemental chain as mutch as possible.

I hope this deck will get you some wins with shaman.

Edit 1.1

I have exchanged a Fire Elemental for a Stone Sentinel and saw more succses. On average this deck has a really good match up againt midrange and weaker aggro. I havent encountered a Razakus Priest yet, but if you are struggling with them consider a Mindbreaker. A small list of things I played against.

Aggro Paladin: Seamed to work good, if you have maelstorm you should really consider putting it in tho, it makes it so mutch easier. Otherwise try to capitalize on your big drops, play around your taunts and when low heal up with Healing Storm. Wait for a rewarding Gromble or a double Stone Sentinel trigger into bloodlust.
