Control Mill Shaman
Step 1. Mill your deck with Spirit of the Frog & small spells while controlling the game.
Step 2. Drop Chef Nomi & Ancestral Spirit him
Step 3. Bounce him back with Bog Slosher, and repeat everything with Shudderwock. Lots of Greasy Elemental boards.
Step 4. Refuel your deck with Archivist Elysiana
This Shaman mill technique worked quite well with ‘Galvanised Mecha’thun’ in Boomsday alongside the Mecha’thun OTK.
I don’t see the point of having ancestral spirit in the deck. It only revives the minion it enchants, it doesn’t return the minion to your hand.
Also, some other cards don’t seem to serve any purpose, either. Blazing Invocation is probably too unreliable, and Earthen Might can’t work with too much here.
You need the Ancestral Spirit as you can’t bounce Chef Nomi on his turn since the board is full
So it’s just to make him harder to remove, since you have to do it twice? I can see your thought process behind that. It still seems clunky, especially considering Nomi doesn’t guarantee you the win.
Oh man, it’s definitely clunky on the side of meme, but Chef Shaman is just a fun/build/mechanic that nobody seemed to be exploring so thought it was worth expanding on
