Introduction

Hello, my name is Xiba and I am playing for about 2 years now. What I like about this deck is it is not common on the ladder and surprisingly has far bigger win ratio than I thought it will.  This is a control deck meaning you will play any game almost until fatigue or your opponent concedes. Let's head now to next paragraph.

Card Choice

This is a budget version of this deck meaning if you have a couple of more legendaries you can put them in your deck. For instance Wickerflame Burnbristle and Ragnaros, Lightlord and also Sunkeeper Tarim are very valuable for this deck, but also that is another 4800 dust which not everyone can afford right now. I was thinking about putting Dirty Rat which would not be bad against miracle decks and sometimes Quest Rogues and any deck where you want to destroy another minion with Wild Pyromancer + Equality combination, but he is a dead card against Taunt Warrior who are there a lot on ladder. The Curator is a must have because in an optimal situation you will draw 3 cards which is essential for this deck to work properly. Tirion Fordring is an old school classic, not essential in this deck but helps you win games faster. If you are seeing a lot of Murloc Paladins and you can not beat them which is highly unlikely if you have by turn 5 aoe board clear you can put in the deck Hungry Crab.

Deck Strategy and Mulligan

I don't have exact numbers but this deck should win against most aggro decks with considering you have an aoe clear. Regarding control decks, you will win most of the time, the only struggle with this deck are Quest Rogues. So many on ladder still they win almost every time. Quest Rogue is beatable if they have the worst hand in the history of Hearthstone. In almost every aggro matchup you want to keep aoe clear (Wild Pyromancer + Equality)  which will hopefully bring you the win. Against control decks, you want cards which you will not use defensively like Stampeding Kodo and Spikeridged Steed which will make you more present and aggressive on the board. The exception is Hydrologist- he will win you a game against Freeze Mage. Deck strategy would be to play smart and don't use cards which are not necessary for certain situations. If you are a new player this would be hard to understand so in near future I will make a video playing this deck step by step.

Closing words

Thank you for seeing and upvoting for this deck, I hope you like it as much as I do and hopefully with new adventure maybe they even power up this deck.
