Wait it doesnt have grumble? Does it have that minion that bounces and makes it bigger at least?

Bog slosher? No, it only has Zola. (I can support a no-bounce shudderwock, though; sometimes just summoning 18/18 worth of stats is enough of a tempo play, and any bouncing in the deck actually counteracts how much tempo you get on the initial play).

But yeah, I do think the whizbang deck could have reasonably justified Bog Sloshers.

I also would much rather they have Fungal Enchanter (the 3/3 AoE heal that zoo uses) rather than Omega Mind. Fungal Enchanter does a lot more before turn 10, gets copied with Shudderwock, and heals off Hagatha's aoe damage so that you don't get stuck with 6/3s Shudderwocks. (Alternatively, instead of Fungal Enchanter or Omega Mind you could use Lifedrinkers, but I'm pretty sure they on-purpose did not include Lifedrinkers).

Buuuut yeah, honestly, looking at HSReplay, it's not really a Shudderwock focused deck. It's like...there's maybe four important cards (Elise the Trailblazer, Hagatha the Witch, Lich King, Shudderwock) and none of them are clearly the finisher in the deck. Hagatha looks like the one that increases the winrate most when drawn. Elise seems to be the best one to have in your opening mulligan. So...I guess it mostly wins off of generating a lot of cards (and Shudderwock will also generate a bunch of cards).
