Cleared on 1st try so guess worth a post.
Build is constructed around "Animated Armor" and specifically against Baron's minions.
- "Animated Armor" reduces Heroic power to "Deal 1 damage to hero if there is any unspent mana" so that takes away a lot of stress. To keep it in play almost all the time, I included "Duplicate", "Youthful Brewmaster" and "Ancient Brewmaster".
- Baron's minions are mostly 2 health hence we mulligan for 2/1 minions that cost 1 mana, e.g. "Clockwork Gnome", "Tournament Attendee" and "Worgen Infiltrator". Try to mulligan for at least 2 for a great start.
- To defuse Baron's signature spell "Living Bomb", I included "Ironbeak Owl", "Youthful Brewmaster", "Ancient Brewmaster", "Polymorph Boar", "Wailing Soul".
- To fill our hand to spend mana when required I included "Jewelled Scarab", "Gorillabot A-3", "Loot Hoarder", "Arcane Intellect", "Ethereal Conjurer".
- For general removal of minions from 2-6 health, "Forgotten Torch".
- For combo with "Wailing Soul", "Eerie Statue".
- For combo with "Gorillabot A-3" and momentum, "Piloted Shredder", "Goblin Blastmage".
* The deck can be flexible as long as utility can be built in. As you can see I do not have double copies of some cards.
* I won without activating "Duplicate" even though I had it casted. Baron only managed to cast a "Hellfire" early which reduced my "Animated Armor" to 4/1 and he could not remove it.
Yup so that's it, hope this deck brings you some luck and smooth face-roll on Baron. Appreciate any feedback or +1. Cheers!
Solid deck, took me two tries and some thoughtful playing (by the end I was on 2 life) but once I got my armors and duplicate up I had the mechs and removal to make it work. Thanks for the guidance!
Got it on the first attempt with this deck. Lots of versatility when it comes to spending mana when you don't have Animated Armor in play. Felt like I was in control for the duration opposed to the feeling of RNG. Nice deck.
Cheers mate, glad you got it down!
