Beating bad ones is quite easy. The individual tools are all reactable, and bad shamans prefer to use two or three at most.
The first move is the forward dash heavy- for some reason, hers can come from any direction and also feintable, but blocking it is not very hard. As a conq, you can 100% counter it with your zone, with the lb you can block shove. With the other two, just block. Parrying it on reaction is hard.
The side dash heavy should be dealt with easily: bait it out and counter it, just like other similar moves.
The bash and the bite can be punished by dodge attacks, and guardbreaks with perfect timing. It's best to avoid getting bleed damage to avoid the bite mixup which takes off two healthbar and heals the shaman (let's not talk about how balanced that is). If you are bleeding, put pressure on to avoid the bite. If you are a lawbringer, this is the point where you lose most of your hp.
The turtling ones are rare, but important to note that their light parry punish is barely more than the heavy (their stupid zone is guaranteed on heavy parries), so throw out lights often. Their guard is poor, if you light combo them with orochi, the amount of nerf orochi threads will increase.
The most cancerous noob type is the zone spammer: shamans only using their zone. It's 500ms, 25 damage and heavy parry only. Fortunately, they are usually too stupid to mix it up, so you can parry it eventually for max punish. For lawbringer that is impale to top heavy on wallsplaz, 50 damage. For conq, shieldbash light, and if you kick off the stamina, spam the broken shieldbash mixup. With warden and roach, you don't have that much punish, so you want to be offensive.
It's mostly safer just blocking dagger cancels, but you can terrify a shaman by parrying it, you might want to consider the risk.
It's actually very hard to beat a good shaman, she is one of the top 5 after all, good ones use everything above. Fortunately for you, you play top 1 and top 2, both conq and warden are stronger than shaman.

just play your conc and shield bash them to death, easy and broken move! other than that shamans are one of the easier classes to deal with these days. all they really have is their unblock attack mixup which everyone can deal with now. id worry about the new classes at this point.
