This is basically Trump's control paladin decklist from this video, but I found I needed just a little more lategame umph, so I stuck in an Elise the Trailblazer, taking out a Wild Pyromancer. I took that one out not because it didn't help me, but because out of all the cards in the deck it helped me slightly less than the others.

It's all in all just an extremely fun deck, and I've been able to win some matchups you might think a control deck has no business winning surprisingly consistently, such as Jade Druid. It's an uphill battle, but nowhere near unwinnable if you play smart.

And don't even worry about aggro, the games almost win themselves.

Edited for KFT: Added Uther, took out the acolytes, replaced wickerflame with Gluttonous Ooze, put in Skulking Geist for jade druid.

Jade druid is really hard to beat nowadays, but thankfully this deck has answers out the ass between Aldor Peacekeeper, Equality, Sunkeeper Tarim, and the occasional Doomsayer clear. You can answer their jades until they run out of them from the geist.

Sometimes you even get the spicy horsemen win with Uther of the Ebon Blade, but mainly what you get is burst heal, an ashbringer, and serious psychological pressure for 2 mana a turn. I wouldn't consider him essential. Pretty much any tech card can be switched in for him. I probably wouldn't put in another lategame threat to replace him, even though that seems like a natural replacement, since you do already have a lot of lategame.

Notably missing is the Corpsetaker package, for a couple reasons. First of all,  that usually entails including Chillblade Champion, which i don't think is good enough on its own to include. Second of all, I found Wickerflame Burnbristle not to be necessary in this meta. So warping the deck by including Chillblade Champion just to get 2 more of him barely makes sense.
