I think those are both pretty reasonable substitutions. Yogg is a little slow, but can pull you out of otherwise unwinnable situations.

In the past, I’ve replaced both with Firelands Portal and had pretty good success as well.

Thank you very much! I actually did the writeup myself. Towards the end of last season, I did swap out one Primordial Glyph for Effigy. I’d recommend giving it a try, Effigy ended up performing better than expected.

I’ve written a few official guides for other Wild decks on the site as well (with more in the works), so be sure to check them out.

The originator of this particular list is actually an EU player who took Rank 1 Legend (on both servers) with the deck. Most recent meta reports place Control Shaman towards the top of Tier 1, suggesting this is one of the best decks EU.
