Deck Spotlight: Dragon Paladin
Dragon Paladin has been one of the hot topics back when the Blackrock Mountains cards were revealed, and tonight we're looking at Spark's take on it. If you haven't completed all of Blackrock Mountain, you will unfortunately not be able to craft this deck because it requires cards from several of the wings.
Dragon Paladin is exactly what it sounds like - You take Uther and give him a bunch of cards which synergize with the dragon race.
- Blackwing Technician - Super value 3-drop when you're holding a dragon.. which should be always.
- Dragon Consort - A solid body which will help you pump out another dragon for cheap.
- Hungry Dragon - Omnomnom. Cheap dragon minion with high stats. You can use your dudes to ping off the Battlecry spawn.
- Azure Drake - A classic dragon. Card draw, a solid body, and it can also buff your Consecration.
- Blackwing Corruptor - The non-shaman specific Fire Elemental. Removal to keep your flight safe.
- Ysera - Grants you an assortment of Dream Cards which can easily push you to victory.
- Chromaggus - Not only is this beast a dragon, but he can also fill your hand up with extra Dragons.. or other good cards!
You can find the deck below if you'd like to get crafting, and you can read more about this deck, including more information on the card choices, over on the deck guide. You can also find more dragon paladin decks on our deck search page.

I just want to know... how did you link Silver Hand Recruits using 'dudes'?
dudes
Manually linking it? ala <a href="http://www.hearthpwn.com/cards/268-silver-hand-recruit">Dude</a> (or something similar)
I replaced an Abusive Sergeant and Zombie Chow with Faerie Dragon's to have more dragon synergy. Found them more helpful against spell removals during the early turns.
I've been having a lot of success replacing Ysera for Nefarian, that feeling of getting double fireballs and nuking your foe with them, priceless
Interesting list. On the NA ladder it looks like there's already a lot of anti-patron meta shift going on as a result.
Something beat Facehunter in popularity? I don't believe it, I'm calling shenanigans!
I'm not totally sold on Dragon Paladins yet. Played some games and I'm a little inconsistent yet, maybe more experience will solve the problem, we'll see. I like the idea and the decks, though.
One of the things I did that worked out incredibly well for me was to use a single Drakonid Crusher as a 6 drop. It gives my deck 2 BGH targets (the other being Rend) but that 9/9 body has absolutely crushed some decks (won me 4 games against face hunter as it's too big and too fast for them to deal with, and by holding onto as long as I could, it's recked quite a few handlocks). Sometimes it's just a 6 mana 6/6 (just under normal being a 6 mana 6/7) but the having an extra dragon in hand makes it 100% worth the 1 hp.
