This is a basic rush deck that I use for Daily Quests. I've taken it on the ladder a few times, and it can be great to climb the lower ranks depending on what's being played that day (if it's Control Priests, Shamans, Taunt Druids, use another deck lol). Usually at rank 16, you will start hitting those Control Priests and such, so I don't think it's viable past there.

How to Play
Mulligan for Fiery War Axe, Bloodsail Raider, and Argent Squire (Acidic Swamp Ooze instead if against Paladin). Go face unless you absolutely need to remove a minion. You have huge burst power in the form of Heroic Strike and Mortal Strike. No one expects Mortal Strike. The games will be very fast. Expect to win by turn 8. If it goes beyond that, you're basically out of answers for the big drops that will be coming from your opponent.

Against Other Decks
This deck will, of course, get burned by Freeze Mage. Zoolock is a toss up. It generally steamrolls handlock unless they get perfect draws. They just can't catch up. When they put our their taunted up Molten Giants, you just finish with Mortal Strike to the face. I've found Shaman to be particularly difficult. Control Priest is difficult if you don't get the perfect curve and draw the right cards at the right time. You'll probably steamroll control Warrior because they just can't catch up; if you don't win by turn 8 (the Ragnaros drop), you'll probably lose against them. Miracle Rogue is usually a win. They have to clear with their face a lot, so they help you win. I haven't played any Aggro Rogues, yet, but I think they would have the advantage because of all their combo spell damage.
