I'd just wait to see if the expansion helps them out first. I'd like to do golden priest but its such a fucking slog. Even though I really do enjoy playing priest, farming wins is tedious.

Warlock is definitely the best bet. Great ladder class no matter what spec and you're so close already. Or just finish huntard.

gonna try out the mach shaman.

Feels weird to not want to play mage since its the new shiny for me but have zero desire for it.

I like having shit to progress towards (besides fucking ranks) like dailies and goldens and arena entries. Once I have a golden I barely play them except sometimes for dailies, arena or now brawls.

Like him or not, Kripp is very good at presenting, especially when apparently he hadn't even seen Charged Hammer before. Good analysis.

It seems very weak to me. The death rattle is great, but its a 4 cost weapon that only has 2 damage, and takes 4 turns to break. One of the big problems that Shaman has is that they're a weapon class with no self-healing. Rogue has the same problem, which is why Rogue decks center around putting the enemy away quickly.

Quite frankly, the only way to turn things around for shaman is to print some class cards that are OP as fuck. And I doubt that will ever happen. Shaman is a design failure. I wouldn't say they need a complete overhaul, but they definitely need more than a few small changes.

Have to agree Gavin, didn't really take the duration into account on first glance.

They need to make new selectable hero powers for every class and make new mechanics for every class every few years or so.

Shaman is in such bad shape I want to tackle it but damn thats a long ass road.
A remember, just 6 months back people used to bot sham to gold.

I don't think I've seen a bot in a long time? Are they just ... gone?

You can just overwrite the hammer with another weapon too I suppose. Still, all the mana involved in doing that isn't going to balance out enough with the deathrattle tempowise.
