If you’re seeing too many Control Warriors in this Tavern Brawl, you might consider switching from Mage to Druid as I have. This build is designed to go long, and if you’re paired with Mage, pick the “gain 2 armor” fate above everything else.
I originally had Dr. Boom in here, but everyone keeps picking coins or bananas, and Dr. Boom just results in you having to burn a card on your following turn. Malorne gives you a better threat against Control Warrior.
