Oh wow that was quick. I did not think that would happen that fast. LOL.
Gameplay of the deck:

Thanks KiwiinBacon for making this video for me. It is the deck without the changes, but it still shows the potential to stand up against the aggro mete.
Matchups:
Paladin and Hunter: Often it's an aggro deck that you encounter when you meet one of these classes. Therefore is it important that you get your AoEs early in the game. It's also a good idea to search for one of your 3 mana taunts (Stonehill Defender, Tar Creeper, and Phantom Militia) so if you see one of them in your mulligan is it a keeper.
Shaman: Almost all play OTK shaman, so the only thing you should have in mind is to complete your quest. But it is a good idea to keep a fiery war axe in case of him having a Mana tide totem or something like it.
Priest: Often will they play spitefull priest, which would mean, that they have a mind control in their deck, so you can't always rely on your taunts. With that in mind, you should always look for a Reckless Flurry or Brawl.
Rogue: Haven't played that matchup enough to know it…
Mage: Against mage do I feel like it's a match you should win all the time. Just get the quest done and hero power them down.
Warlock: They play for the most part cubelock, so this is a hard matchup. If you have Shielblock can they be your lifesaver, as they are very good against Doomguards. It's also very important that you got a card like brawl in your hand to deal with Guldan.
Druid and Warrior: Against druid and warrior, are you almost always favorite. Druid has no good single target removable, so your taunts will typically trade well enough. The same goes for Rush Warrior, where most of their rush minions do not work very well with your bigger taunts. But it's important to have, an AoE in the event that your opponent has a strong board present.
Potentially more card draw
I have seen a lot of people complaining about the lack of card draw. I have personally no issuer with it, here are 2 possible ways to get more card draw into the deck.
1. Remove 2x Fiery war axe, 1x Gorehowl, and 2x Blackwald Pixie. Replace them with 2x Town crier, 2x Rapid Worgan and 1x Darius Crowley
2. Remove 2x Blackwald Pixie in exchange for 2x acolyte of pain.
Overall good tips for all classes.
1. Always have an AoE available in case your minions are being fucked.
2. Against aggro, would I throw a Tar creeper before a Stonehill Defender and Phantom Militia because it has a larger body.
3. Always try to get a minimum of 2 minions out of Phantom Militia. But do not be afraid of just throwing one.
4. Always try to get good value from your AoEs, Ca. 3-4 minions will be fine.
5. Blackwork pixie is best with your ragnaros hero power, but do not be afraid to use it with Tank up against aggro decks.
I have also made a few improvements on the deck:
1. I have removed 2x Lesser Mitril spellstone for another Witchwood Grizzly and a tar creeper.
2. I have alse removed 1x arcanite reaper for a rotten applebaum.
3. I have removed 2x Tar Lord for a acolyte of pain and a Gluttonous Ooze
4. I have removed 1x Witchwood Grizzly in exchange for another Rotten applebaum.
Harrison or an ooze better swap to beat cube
I happen to have Grommash, do you think he would be a good in this deck as another win condition?
Grommash is 8 mana, the whole point of the deck is odd cost cards for Baku to work.
I could see Alexstrasza in the deck because it combines very well with Blackwald Pixie.
Baron Geddon could work but I can't see what to replace due to it being so expensive.
It is hard to find a replacement for Reckless Flurry, as it is so flexible. But if you have to replace it I would recommend the card Abomination, as it has an AoE and is a taunt.
Could work I guess
I have one of each necessary epics. How could I replace the second ones?
Which ones are needed to put in?
I suggest crafting Brawl and Shield slam: they are classic so they have fantastic value (until they decide that either is too oppressive and theysend them to HoF in which case you get your investment back in full). AS for the Flurry, I crafted the second one and it is nice but I've had the bad luck of drawing it too late.
100% loss rate with this deck. I suggest replacing mithrils and the excessive weapons for more taunt. Problem is keeping up with early and mid game.
You should run an Ironbeak Owlto use on the cubes and be really wise saving up the Brawl and Reckless Flurry to clear the board at important moments.
i get the Blackwald Pixie but what about the Clockwork Automaton? when u have 2 on board its 32 dmg heropower... i know its hard to do but still even 1 gives u 16 --> with the pixie same!
I find Clockwork Automaton to slow to be played in the current meta. As soon as it's played it becomes your opponent's primary target, so like 99% of the time, it will be dead. But feel free to try it and tell me how it works. :)
I am glad there is a way for warrior to come back in the meta and this is probably good enough to stop all those token based decks that are popping up right now! I have been waiting for the day that warrior would be good again for a long time and I am glad we are here.
I made a video that showcases the deck in action, I really hope you guys enjoy it :D
I built this deck yesterday with minor adjustments. Mainly replacing Arcanite Reaper and Lesser Mithril Spellstone for more Taunt minions and Darius Crowley which I just happened to get from a random pack.
Holy shit this deck is a blast, aggro Pallys will straight up fuck you if they get the right cards to burst early on. But other than that I've had an easy climb from 16-10
Any way to put in Blackhowl Gunspire ?
This card is a piece of shit and it doesn't fit the deck so your answer is nope there is no way to put the card in here.
I don't think there is any way, that you can put it in the deck and it will succeed... sry.
put him in just for fun?
You could try and replace Gorehowl for Darius Crowley as they do the same job, just a bit different.
for what reason are you playing 2x Whirlwind? as i can see there is no synergy
