Deck Introduction

Hey guys and welcome back. Today on the menu we have my own personal take on the Exodia Paladin decklist for the Wild Format. This particular list is somewhat cycle heavy. However, having said that, quite a few anti-aggro options have been including thus making the deck consistent against all types of decks and not just the control/combo oriented ones.

Recently as of the Kobolds & Catacombs expansion, I made some major changes to the list that affect the overall playstyle of the deck and as a result make it even more consistent against aggro and control. We have included additional cycle options, anti-aggro options and combo discounttech that seriously push the competitive limits of the deck. Perhaps with some more support it could potentially be a force to be reckoned with. Now, without further ado lets look into the updated version of the deck.

Combo Requirements:

To fully complete the combo you need 1) Uther of the Ebon Blade 2) Auctionmaster Beardo3) and three spells that cost 0 or an assortment of coins and 1 mana spells (the combination of which will be explained and set out below).

For wild there are two ways in which to generate zero cost spells for paladin: Burgly Bully or having Emperor Thaurissan provide one discount tick on 3 one-mana spells. Now, even though we used to use Burgly Bully we have now moved away from that approach, as it is too slow and often requires us to have the board, which is something we won’t have consistently due to the nature of the deck. As a result I deem it, more often than not, a dead card.

Deckbuilding & Combo Calculations Explained:

Ok, now that that is out the way let’s look into how you can potentially complete the combo and blow your opponent out of the water:

– Auctionmaster Beardo (two mana) + 4 hero powers (eight mana, each one refreshed by a cheap spell, which would consist of either: 
(a) three discounted one mana spells or 
(b) one one mana discounted spell + one regular one mana spell and the starting coin).
For the above combo to be pulled off, then 1-3 Emperor Thaurissan ticks will be required.

–  Auctionmaster Beardo ( at two or three mana) + 4 hero powers (six mana and not eight since you will be playing Fencing Coach the turn before, each one refreshed by a cheap spell, which would consist of either 
(a) one discounted one mana spell + the starting coin + a regular one mana spell (with Beardo at 3 mana) or 
(b) two one mana regular spells + one discounted one mana spell or the starting coin (with beardo at 2 mana).
From the combos listed above, it becomes evident that if you go second and manage to play Fencing Coach and save the coin, then you can complete the combo without Emperor Thaurissan.
