Shudderwock Lockdown Control Shaman (April 2018)
I like this deck. Feel free to check out my decks too. Really love control shaman (even though it struggles in the current meta) and I’ve been theory crafting on how to make it work well.
I’ve also theorized that murloc quest is a surprisingly good synergy with hagatha and shudder-loop. Would love to hear your thoughts!

This deck doesn’t have any tempo. Creative idea but control shaman is already a struggle and without devolve or hex, it doesn’t work out too well…
Thanks for checking them out!
I definitely agree – drake is great with a little more AOE to help out. It is important, however, to acknowledge that only one can be played if you hope to get the shudderloops off. Kalimos is great but I worry about randomly getting the single target damage spell and hitting self or killing shudder. I’d take consistent value from hag any day, especially since the AOE helps keep board under control. That was my personal logic for ruling out kalimos, also not sure if an elemental is needed the turn before for it to actually activate.
As for the murloc deck, it’s interesting really. My experience with the murloc quest so far (I loved it when it first came out) is that it has great early game tempo, but even with putting down lots of murlocs per turn and activating quest – it’s still easy to run out of murlocs in the late game – and that’s where things go really wrong. The shudderloop helps to keep pushing the deck forward and gives a win condition that doesn’t detract too far from the murloc quest tempo or core cards. It’ll definitely require testing but I think it’s actually got a lot of potential!
Looking forward to trying these decks out and I’m down to keep talking about what we learn and discover.
