This is my 6th time hitting legend, but the first time with Patron Warrior.

I find the inclusion of Shield Block and Shield Slam to be really helpful in almost every match up because of the added removal and life gain which gives you more time to draw into your combos. With 2x armorsmith and 5 whirlwind effects, you often times do not even need the shield block to kill large minions with shield slams.
I am currently working on a guide and mulligan list for specific match ups. If you have any questions about the deck feel or card replacements feel free to ask!
Glad you like the deck. Leeroy is definitely a viable replacement for Grommash. I don't know how often you would get extra patrons from the 2 whelps simply because both cards are 5 mana so you would need the Emperor discount on both of them plus warsong commander for this to happen. However, on the plus side you can play him the same turn as other combo pieces for added damage which is highly unlikely with Grommash. I think the Frothing berserker and Leeroy combo is much more likely to occur. Let me know how it works out, as I am curious as to how well it will do.
Okay I have 2 questions. Can I replace gromm with Boom and is there any room for x1 brawl (just unpacked it today)
Replacing Boom with Grom is fine. I like to use Grom as another win condition for the deck other than patrons or frothings, but Boom is such an OP card that he is usable even though he is not directly part of the deck's win condition. I don't think brawl is necessary, since you will find it to be a dead card when you have patrons on board and you can often use your patrons along with warsong to build a board while removing the opponents minions at the same time. If you really want to use brawl, I would substitute out either slam, unstable ghoul, or you could even include it instead of the missing Grom.
please can you show video guide
Im working on setting up my stuff so that I will be able to stream and do guides. I will post the link once I have it all sorted out.
Fun deck! been looking for one like this. feels like it could use some tweaks, not sure what. Getting crushed by control warrior/handlock but climbing the ladder fast!
Control warrior and handlock are definitely two of this deck's worse matchups. I would say patron has a 30-40% winrate at best versus them. Against warrior your best bet of winning is getting a decent amount of patrons on the board and them not having brawl. Against handlock you want to play more of the turtle game and go for a big frothing OTK. Never overcommit to the board since they typically have 3 AOEs, and try to save shield slams/executes to kill off taunted creatures. Hope that helps with those match ups a bit.
