No, it’s not a proper replacement since you need it for juggler and the hyena.

I really like the idea of a controll quest paladin. I tested this version of the deck for around 20 games. Unfortunately it feels too slow for the current meta. I’m now playing a faster version with more early buffs. I added a second “Wild pyromancer”. He can clear the board not just with “Equality” but also with the poisonous “Adaption”. You won’t get it 100% of the time but it works as an emergency plan.

It’s amazing against other control decks. Especially the warrior matchup becomes so much better.
