Mulligans
General Mulligans
Always: Backstab, 1 Drops
Without Coin: Prioritize Lowly Squire
On Coin: Defias Ringleader, SI:7 Agent with Backstab or without vs hunter and mage, prioritize Bladed Cultist with other 1 drops, mull away one toughness minions against Mage
Substitutions: -1 Leeroy Jenkins +1 Stranglethorn Tiger
This deck is very flexible and has many viable minion choices for each mana slot:
1 Drops: Argent Squire, Buccaneer, Lowly Squire, Swashburglar, Pit Snake, Sir Finley Mrrgglton, Worgen Infiltrator, Southsea Deckhand, Bladed Cultist (Only with 7-8 other one drops or 6 with Backstabs)
2 Drops: Defias Ringleader, Undercity Huckster, Flame Juggler, Huge Toad, Loot Hoarder
3 Drops: Argent Horserider, SI:7 Agent, Silithid Swarmer, Edwin VanCleef, Coldlight Oracle
4 Drops (only run 1-3): Gnomish Inventor, Dark Iron Dwarf, Tomb Pillager
5 Drops: Azure Drake, Stranglethorn Tiger
Weapons: Assassins Blade (1-of or 2-of), Perdition’s Blade(1-of or 2-of)
Finishers: Leeroy Jenkins (can be subbed for Stranglethorn Tiger), Assassins Blade + Deadly Poison, Argent Commander
Sap? : Sap is an excellent card on paper in this deck but I believe it can only be justifiably run as a 2-of with at least 3 draw cards, some combination of Gnomish Inventor, Loot Hoarder, and Azure Drakes
Running draw cards also lets you put in more tempo cards like Backstabs, Deadly Poisons, and Perdition’s Blade more freely
The general strategy of this deck is to get an early board and then start pushing heavy face damage. Once board control is lost you can finish the game with burst from Eviscerates, Assassins Blade, and chargers
Ideal Cold Blood targets: Argent Squire, Argent Horserider, Leeroy Jenkins
