   Any replacements for Soggoth?

   1. Evident December 17, 2016

      Something like Ragnaros or Sylvanas.

   Soggoth is a pretty interesting tech, it's actually a great Dirty Rat counter. I don't know if it's not too slow against Aggro, though. Dropping it is often an auto-win, but turn 9 is really late.

   I'm really not convinced of inkmaster, is she really decisive? How can she be replaced?

      Inkmaster has won so many games for me. It is such a powerful card. This morning I got flaming torch out for 3, ink master and pyroblast. 16 damage to finish the game.

      She's saved my butt so many times, being able to do all sorts of crazy combos, clearing boards, burst damage, you name it. LOVE HER. Very underrated card imo

         Thank you for your answers.

         For now I've switched her for Medhiv, but I understand it's a greed choice (value over tempo). I'll see when I'll get some more dust - or luck in pack opening :)

         For now, it's a real nice and refreshing deck to play.

   Perfect deck!!

6. Elliot December 17, 2016

   Could someone explain Ysera here to me? It seems that a card like Medivh would be a perfect fit, given the late game spells in here and Kazakus potion (maybe a 10-cost).

   Also, why Greater Arcane Missiles over Pyroblast?

   1. TheLawnNinja December 17, 2016

      The problem with Medivh is that it takes two turns to get a valuable minion from him and lots of decks are running Swamp Ooze right now. Ysera will always get you at least one extra card, and it can be very difficult to remove in the late game, potentially generating a ton of value.

      As for Greater Arcane Missiles, it's a lot more versatile than Pyroblast and can impact the board earlier. This isn't a deck that wants to burst the opponent down with spells, so a card that can remove multiple smaller minions is generally more useful than a card that can remove a single big minion.

         Thanks for the reply. I'll give it a try!

   As far as I remember he dropped Ysera in favor of Ragnaros.

   1. Evident December 17, 2016

      You're right, I just checked his stream and he swapped those.

   What card would you pick to have a duplicate of in this deck?
   Aslong as you dont use Kazakus etc before drawing the duplicate its fine. Ive been using 2 babbling books. For an extra spell.

   I played this deck so many times and I understood that soggoth should be in this deck cause your speel sometimes doesnt get enough clear the board and soggoth does thats wht soggots one of the key cards of this deck

   1. pihs December 19, 2016

      Crafted Soggoth for control Shaman in the previous meta and can only enphasize how underrated he is : in the right conditions he stops aggro deck right now and gives you the breath you need

    I just won a game against this deck because my opponent played Manic Soulcaster with Brann. Totally screwed up his Reno and Kazakus synergy :)

    I really like this Deck! I only struggel agains Dragon Priest and Jade Druid. Dragon Priest is winnable but Jade Druid feels unbeatable without the Freezmage Technic.

    Any Tipps for me here?
