Murloc Shaman Deck Mulligan Guide

As an Aggro deck, it is incredibly important to mulligan for the fastest possible start to secure the board as soon as possible.

  • General MulliganMurloc Tidecaller, Sludge Slurper, Underbelly Angler.
  • Mulligan Against AggroHench-Clan Hogsteed.
  • Mulligan Against ControlScargil.

Murloc Shaman Deck Strategy

Your aim throughout the game should be to use your Murlocs and their synergies to assemble the strongest board possible to pressure your opponent. With multiple Murlocs on the board, you should then try to compound your lead using Coldlight Seer and Murloc Warleader to put on even more pressure. Once you are in a dominant board position you should use Bloodlust along with your minions to finish off your opponent.

Against Aggro, you should try to play more defensively, picking up as many value trades as possible throughout the game to protect your board. Hench-Clan Hogsteed in particular is a great additional tool that should be used to help control the board. While in full control of the board, any excess damage can be used to slowly grind down your opponent.

Against Control, you should try to be a bit more conservative with your cards to make sure you can refill the board after a large board clear. Underbelly Angler is key card for helping you replenish your resources and making sure you can keep putting on pressure in the late game. Using it as late as possible will ensure you have the most amount of Mana available to maximise the number of Murlocs you can generate. Soul of the Murlocs is a great tool for protecting your board and will allow you to more aggressively put pressure onto the board knowing you have Deathrattle effects to fall back onto.
