Earth, Wind(fury), and Fire Elemental Shaman ft. High Inquisitor Whitemane

It might not be September yet, but the deck needed some updating. I was wondering if the deck could use Mor'shan Watch Post. Then I realized a lot of decks were running spells, and the deck just so happened to need another five-drop. Ogremancer is essentially the spell-deterrent counterpart to Mor'shan Watch Post. Yeah, the stats may not be the best, but Elemental Shaman does a good enough job at developing a board early on and baiting out removal that there's a good chance Ogremancer is going to be hard to contest. The original version also tended to run out of gas, so I added in Instructor Fireheart in order to find some burn rather than let the deck burn out. In addition, Mana Tide Totem will help keep the card draw flowing.

Considering how board-centric the deck is, it's quite common to have moments where you'll be forced to trade, and in those scenarios, High Inquisitor Whitemane shines. She already comes with great stats, and getting a few small minions or a bigger minion back with her helps keep up the tempo. It won't feel so bad to lose the board you've built up because it'll just come back! If you're unsure of her, at least give her a chance before looking at other options.

Given the smaller pool of cards and Shaman's useful utility tools, you might want to keep these cards in mind should you decide to replace High Inquisitor Whitemane. Though they're a bit slow, it's nice having a targetable one-time Ragnaros the Firelord via Alexstrasza the Life-Binder, and while Ysera the Dreamer's impact isn't immediate, she does refill the hand with good cards: Nightmare is synergistic with Windfury minions; Dream is a cheap bounce for annoying Taunts in addition to buffed minions that are in the way; Nightmare can serve as a finisher; and Laughing Sister alongside Emerald Drake are nice to have. I understand why some people might not want to run these late-game Dragons though, so if you're looking for another card to take High Inquisitor Whitemane's place, there's Inara Stormcrash, which still provides a good amount of damage over time. Another suitable midrange option is Overlord Runthak since there are a lot of minions, and Rush allows him to fight for the board. Devolving Missiles or Revolve might also be a decent one-of.

With that said, hopefully I won't have to make more changes until September does actually come around.
