I have have been playing around and this has taken me from rank 21 to rank 10 in three days.

All minions seem to work perfectly together to maintain board control with most matches finishing before turn 9.

I started off with a pirate start but removed it due to it being too weak compared to other 3/2 1 mana drops available to Warlock.

Main challenges are evolve shaman and priest.

I mulligan for as many 1 mana minion drops to start off quickly but aim for Soulfire/ Mortal Coil when going against Jade Druid to stop them swarming the board.

I will continue to push using this deck but realistically I do not think I will advance much further than rank 10 without the addition of Bloodreaver Gul'dan.

Keleseth can be beneficial but not a necessity due to the initial strength and board control gained from this deck. 

Generic Strategy

The generic strategy is fairly simple.

Start off with a 1 mana taunts and 1 mana flame imps. This will give you board control straight away with little contest.

Mid game, go for taunt and fledglings. Use your flame imps to take out their taunts or high attack minions and fledglings to deal damage to their hero.

End game: Bonemare other minions aside from fledgling (Darkshire Councilman ideally) and finish off with Doomguards.

Situation cards:

* Stormwind is a good booster for the final pushes.

* Defile is not needed for most matches but is a game changer when facing Jade Druid and Evolve Shaman.

Just a few mid ranged matches along the way against a priest and evolve shaman.
