Hearthstone: Shaman Guide

Learn how to play the shaman in Game Hearthstone in this guide. We not only give you tips on the right cards, but also explain how the shaman plays.

The shaman in Hearthstone: With ridicule to the goal

The shaman should have some mock servants in his deck. The goal is to protect your own life points as well as possible. At the same time, you should try to equip your other servants with reinforcement cards in order to properly heat up the opponent - for example with "wind anger", "healing of the ancestors" or "fighting frenzy". The shaman's class ability, "Summon Totem", helps you with this: This is how you conjure up totems with random properties on the field - for example with ridicule. The shaman's strategy is therefore based on a solid defense of mock servants and servants who attack the enemy with buffs. The following cards are recommended:

• "Foot soldier from Goldhain" (1/2): "ridicule"
• "Eisenpelzgrizzly" (3/3): "ridicule"
• "Schildmeista von Sen'jin" (3/5): "ridicule"
• "Lord of the Arena" (6/5): "ridicule"
• "Windfury": Gives windfury to a servant.
• "Healing the Ancestors": Restores a servant's full life and gives him ridicule.
• "Battle Frenzy": Gives your servant +3 attack this turn.

The goal is quick attack

To inflict damage on the opponent, you should rely on strong attack servants. The shaman doesn't have many of them. We therefore recommend servants with a "rush" so that you can finish your opponent as quickly as possible. With the buff cards that have already been presented, you can, for example, make the "mad rocket shooter" a powerful servant who has over 8 attacks. If the opponent has a strong servant, you can put him out of action with "Hex". The following servants in your deck should be responsible for the damage:

• "Crazy Missile Shooter" (5/2): "Rush"
• "Knight of Stormwind" (2/5): "Rush"
• "Steinhauereber" (1/1): "rush"
• "Fire Elemental" (6/5): "Battle Cry": Deals 3 damage.
• "Hex": Turns a servant into a frog (0/1) with ridicule.

Build your deck using this guide. Of course, you can also add more aggressive or defensive cards to your deck. More magic could also be useful in some situations. Always adapt your cards to your playing style, but always try to keep a clear line. If you don't like the shaman, give the warlock a try.
