Mulligans

Aggro Mulligans

Friendly Bartender and Tar Creeper are premium early minions in aggressive matchups, Hungry Crab to be kept mostly against paladins, and the rest is pretty much just removal (although Unleash the Hounds is in the form of charging minions).

Midrange Mulligans

Some similar choices to mulligans against aggro, except you can keep some higher-cost cards like Barnes, and you'll generally have a bit more time to get Moroes value if you want a 3 drop.

Combo Mulligans

Against a completely un-interactive combo deck (other than perhaps some disruption) like quest mage, you'll want to build a clock, which the deck isn't good at but can still do with some luck. Alarm-o-Bot is your best bet of getting a full-sized lategame minion onto the battlefield other than just playing one, which is usually too slow against combo anyway.

Control Mulligans

Stitched Tracker can give you additional large minions to win the attrition war, Tracking just good at finding the right cards for the situation which you can afford to spend your mana on in slow matchups, Deadly Shot is sometimes good for taking out win conditions like The Lich King, Barnes can generate a lot of value for it's mana cost and Deathstalker Rexxar is the best card in the deck for beating control.

A hunter deck starring the usual package of “big” decks: Barnes , Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound , Ysera , The Lich King . This build however also runs Drakkari Enchanter and some fun end-of-turn effects that synergise with the Barnes package, which already includes a few of its own. The reasons for playing hunter are Tracking and Stitched Tracker , which are extremely helpful tools for finding combo pieces like Barnes or Drakkari Enchanter , but also incidentally give you the ability to find situational tools like Tar Creeper or Friendly Bartender to protect your life total against aggro, Hungry Crab to kill murlocs, etc. It’s admittedly a highroll deck, just as any Barnes-based deck is, but it includes the tools to win literally any matchup, which is where it’s power lies. You have plenty of removal and stability cards against aggro, the Barnes package sometimes fast enough to beat jade, and not only all of those monstrously big things but also Deathstalker Rexxar against control. Enjoy!
