Strategy[edit | edit source]
Possible to have better value than Lightning Bolt.
Crackle is on average more mana efficient than Lava Burst, but far less predictable.
Could be used in a heavy spell damage shaman deck.
- Possible Shaman OTK (one turn kill) options
1) Play Ancestor's Call and summon Malygos from the hand, then cast 2 Lightning Bolt and 2 Crackle to your opponent's face. This will result in a total of 32-38 damage for 10 mana.
2) Play Ancestor's Call and summon Malygos from the hand, then cast 2 Lightning Bolt, 1 Frost Shock, and 1 Crackle to your opponent's face. This will result in a total of 30-33 damage for 9 mana.
Feel free to use other cards like Rockbiter Weapon, Lava Burst, or minions that do face damage to calculate into the above OTKs.
