With the current nerf of Charge the deck archetype Worgen OTK is dead and buried.
I always thought OTK decks are pretty fun to play and was looking for an alternative deck which I could play in Standard. Anyfin Paladin was my first idea, but since I'm missing some crucial cards (Lay on Hands for example) and Old Murk-Eye isn't allowed in Standard. I also didn't want to renounce all the nice warrior spells (especially Battle Rage for enormous card draw) and looked for other possibilities to set up an One Turn Kill.

At first: with unnerfed Charge you would have been able to make an OTK deck based on nearly any max 3 or 4 mana minion with enough health to survive double Inner Rage and then be cloned by Faceless Manipulator. But now there is only a choice between the already "charged" minions, where you have strict restrictions: the minion should cost a maximum of 4 mana, needs at least 2-3 health and at least 2-3 attack to be a "good" target for Faceless Manipulator after enough buffs.

My final choice was Kor'kron Elite: 3 health are more than enough to survive double-Inner Rage, and 4 mana (discounted to 3 by Emperor Thaurissan are ok. Also 4 attack is more than Stormwind Knight could offer and needed to reach at least 15 Atk and the be cloned by Faceless Manipulator (with exactly the following combination I reach 32 Damage from an empty board in T10).

The final combination I wanted to use was: Kor'kron Elite + Inner Rage + 2x Rampage + Inner Rage + Cruel Taskmaster + Faceless Manipulator. Unfortunately that means you need to discount EVERY piece of the combination in your hand with Emperor Thaurissan.

The Dream:

T9 Emperor Thaurissan while holding all combo pieces
T10 Kor'kron Elite + 2x Inner Rage + 2x Rampage + Cruel Taskmaster + Faceless Manipulator and go face! 32 Damage Face!

 

Also there are 12 cards in this deck which provide a huge card draw (Slam, Loot Hoarder, Acolyte of Pain, Gnomish Inventor, Shield Block and the almighty Battle Rage), that for normal take you to no cards in your deck in 10 turns to ensure that you have every piece of the OTK combination in your hand.

And last but not least: If you play such a large combo, why don't you play just 1 copy of Kor'kron Elite and Cruel Taskmaster?

for the glory of satan

Seriously, I play 2 copies to get better possibilities to collect the whole combo before I deck out.

 

Please let me know what you think about this deck :)

 

I'm also working on a variant featuring Alexstrasza's Champion, which you can find here: Dragon OTK Warrior
