Hearthstone video deck guide: Aggro Shaman

John “JoRoSaR” Sargent teaches you how to build and play one of the best decks in Hearthstone at the moment: The heavy-hitting aggro Shaman.

Aggro Shaman is considered one of the strongest decks in the game and for good reason. The amount of aggression and pure damage the list contains makes it a scary opponent, to the point it’s almost auto-banned in tournament play. Even decks built specifically to counter aggro Shaman can fall on their faces if Thrall draws enough damage – and damage there is aplenty.

The list utilizes a low-mana curve based on early-game value minions such as [card]Tunnel Trogg[/card], [card]Totem Golem[/card], [card]Tuskarr Totemic[/card] and [card]Argent Squire[/card] to put pressure from the first turn. Apart from the on-board offensive, aggro Shamans run a plethora of direct damage spells in [card]Lightning Bolt[/card], [card]Lava Burst[/card] and [card]Rockbiter Weapon[/card], the latter pairing nicely with their dreaded source of sustained face-smash: [card]Doomhammer[/card].

Although there are multiple variations of aggro Shaman, all are rather cheap to craft, featuring no legendary cards and just a couple of epics, sometimes not even that. It’s very recommended to new players who are only now entering Hearthstone and building their collection.
