Mulligans

General Mulligans

Given how much aggro there has been, these will help.

If you see a warlock, mulligan for ironbeak as well, you may need it sooner rather than later

So, I saw Baku the Mooneater and was instantly taken back to the days of Justicar Trueheart fatigue. Back when people would pass turns after doing nothing but using their hero power.

So, I tried, but I instantly hit a roadblock.

No executes.  No garrosh.  No dead man’s hand.

So i improvised, and here we have taunt control warrior.

The aim is to get sulfuras and try to hit face with your different hero power. We won’t aim to sulfuric until late game, as we sacrificed a lot to get this hero power and we’re gonna use it!

The deck focuses on making a wall of taunt minions and blowing up the board till we can safely sulfuras behind 16-20 armor.

We do run reckless fury, which destroys our armor, but is very useful against smaller board in the early game. For just five mana we can deal 4 to all minions with hero power + reckless fury, giving us some early control

That being said, I wish this deck could have been a little stronger, but I feel I did the best with what I had.

Thanks for reading and feel free to leave any questions comments are suggestions below!

Note:

I will be adding that 3 mana 1/1 witchwood puppet, it will most likely be subbed with I know a guy, as most taunts you discover aren’t that great

    Looks great! I would maybe replace Tar creeper with Tar Lord? Or at least one, as it can get summoned from oakheart.
