Mulligan for early game, but always keep Squallhunter, since she is you lowest cost activator. Don't keep breeder, you won't play turn 2 anyway (except against aggro).

Hello! I’m random high legend (~300-100) Shaman player and deckbuilder. I want to share my thoughts about Shaman possible decks and present to you Tempo Dragon deck with Galakrond.

It has 7 dragons, it is very good for synergy (Control Priest used to run 6 to 7 and it was decent). We can always include 8th dragon if it wouldn’t be enough. Have some busted interactions (like Nithogg into Dragon Breeder value bomb, Squallhunter overload curves into lighting breath). Deck is unrefined, but looks very strong. I don’t think we need to push early dragons, because of Frizz, but we will see how meta will settle. The gameplan is to flood your board, control opponent’s board with value trades, just like classic tempo decks and finish game Galakrong/Nithogg tempo bombs.

Controversal cards:

x2 Invocation of Frost – We probably don’t need it at all, but we have to try first. 29-30 cards.

x2 Surging Tempest – Decent 1-3, but has almost no synergy (2 slurpers, 2 squallhunter, witchdoctor discovers). Deckbuilding gymnastics like trying to put 2 zaps, 1 lighting storm and new card Cumulo-Maximus always ended by ruining else Galakrong or Dragon synergy. So we need to test, is 2 early overload cards enough for this little guy.

x2 Evasive Drakonid – This deck full of rushes, value trades and good mininos. Also, have legendary that reduce dragon costs. I do think it’s good idea to put it here. It’s already good for it’s cost and it’s amasing if discounted.

x1 Frizz Kindleroost – Could be too slow for meta, so we can probably cut her and high cost dragons in future. To the 4 turn she also will reduce, like 4 or 5 card in our deck?

x1 Shudderwock – Gives us lackeys, copy dragon, give spells, summon eggs etc. Provide some value + clean enemy borad sometimes. But we need more information about Kronx and Galakrond Shudder interaction.

Remember that it’s just theorycrafted deck, so don’t immediatly craft legendaries, even the best looking cards can be forced out of meta in 1-2 weeks after expansion lands. Cheers!
