Whats up guys!
This month i decided to climb legend because i had some time. Last night i finished my climb on rank 5 Legend which feels amazing. This deck has been around for quite some time, tho i still made a little few changes and i am going to tell you how to play this deck, so even beginners can get used to it!

Matchups:
Since there are only a few classes around i wont give a mulligan for EVERY class. Though here are the most common classes:
Priest(good matchup): Mulligan should be simple with this deck hm? Ye. Wenn keep in mind that divine favor is always a good keep since you have to refill the board a lot, same for call to arms. Most of the priests are combo or spiteful, so they do have duskbreaker, try to buff your minions to 4+ health. DON'T play too many minions unless you dont see a way out, always ALWAYS expect them to have AT LEAST 2 duskbreakers, even more if they discovered a dragon.
Warlock(even matchup): Same mulligan for low drops and divine favor, Try to play around defile and hellfire. Controllock is way harder than Cubelock, keep in mind that you might want to use a Spellbreaker on his lackey.
Mage(even matchup): Try to make pressure, most of them are secret mages, they do not run removals, GO ALL IN! There is no other way to win. Try to play around counter spell by using secrets from Hydrologist.
For the other classes: Always mulligan for low drops. Best possible play is to use murloc tidecaller in to rockpool hunter in to coldlight seer.
Card Choices:
I think there is no real need to describe why i used all these murlocs in the deck, althought i will tell you about some of the "special" cards
Knife Juggler: this guy is amazing he makes so much pressure in close games and is really useful for heavy board control
Blessing of kings: This card can be good for some trades or make early big drops.
Unidentified Maul: The best outcome is either 2 1/1 silverhands if you are fighting for board control or divine shield for your minions against Warlock or Priest.
Spellbreaker: Sooo many big taunts! This card stays in hand unless you don't see a other way out...

What do you think of Fungalmancer instead of Blessing of kings? I have seen this used recently... is sometimes a good way to keep minions alive before Duskbreaker, etc.
Is this playable without Sunkeeper Tarim? If so what's a good replacement?... Finja?
You can try void ripper, but i highly recommend tarim, he will win you a lot of games!
Do we really need two divine favor? with so many paladins around I would prefer to make two damages to all enemies ...
i highly recommend using double divine favor, its such a huge advantage against control heavier decks
IS there room for Leroy Jenkins somewhere?
Remove blessing of kings to add leeroy
only deck i've lost to so far is warrior
so far from playing this, first three games Ive...ran into the hunter teching to beat me with both explosive traps early. Then a mirror match where he went first, never had tempo, then the big spell priest with coin duskbreaker into duskbreaker...
Heh, my HS experience in a nutshell :P Feel for you, bro :(
I realistically think this archetype will still thrive after rotation. With chum, vilefin inq (probably the biggest blow), and rallying blade being invalidated choices, what do you think we should replace them with? More tempo or more murlocs?
We really cant predict on that mate... we gotta see what cards they will add first
Good luck for your run, will be streaming in 1 hour, i can give you live tips if you need some!
Just hit legend for the first time with this deck!!!!
Thanks for all your help Rex!
Highly recommended everyone!!!
congratulations my friend! Hopefully you will stay tuned in my stream. I am sure you will learn even more! Thanks for sharing this with us!
what is a good replacement for sunkeeper Tarim?
i actually wouldnt recommend replacing him... maybe you can try something like voidripper
thanks
Sitting at rank 2 with this deck, my best ever result. Only really awful matchup is vs. warlock if they get a good start and can control the board until turn 5. Otherwise it is awesome.
