One of my favorite thing to do when playing warlock is pressing that Life Tap button every turn and I thought what can be better than making it cost only 1 mana?

Being able to Life Tap on turn 1 also allows you to play Mountain Giant as early as on turn 3 going second, and follow it up with Faceless Shambler or 4/10 Twilight Drake next turn. When going first, you can play 2 drops like Doomsayer, Darkbomb, or Vulgar Homunculus on turn 3 and still get to play mountain giant on turn 4.

You get to draw so many cards over time with this deck and although you are paying with your health to do so, it also enables Hooked Reavers and Molten Giants. The deck is also filled with board clears and taunts so it deals with aggro extremely well.

Against Control decks, you can put the pressure on them very early with giant minions that is quite hard to deal with. You can out-tempo them most of the time and even if they somehow dealt with your threats until late game, you have powerful late game finisher with Glinda and Infinite 0 mana Molten Giants. I crafted Glinda just to try this out and it actually happens more often than you'd think. (https://imgur.com/a/4mjkd3A)

This deck is very favorable against Even Shaman that rose in popularity recently and deals with most aggro decks pretty well. Many control/combo decks like Warlocks and Druids have hard time dealing with early giants and twilight drakes and I'd say Big Priests with top deck Barnes were toughest opponents I faced on ladder.

Once Naga Sea witch gets nerfed(if it gets nerfed), I could see this to become a deck to play when you want to slam down bunch of 8/8s on the board.

Mulligan Guide:

Against Aggro: Doomsayer, Defile, Darkbomb, Vulgar Homunculus, Hellfire(Shaman), Lesser Amethyst Spellstone(with Vulgar Homunculus or hellfire)

Against Control: Mountain Giant, Twilight Drake, Faceless Shambler(going second with Mountain Giant)

On some cards not included:

Emperor Thaurissan: I included this card at first since I always have many cards in hand but it felt too slow vs aggro decks.

Target Dummy: I wanted to test this out with Glinda Crowskin to put down infinite target dummy wall on turn 6 but against control decks, you would want to save Glinda to play with Moltens and it is too optimistic to have 1 copy of target dummy and Glinda together on turn 6 against Aggro.

Dark Peddler: Decent two drop and definitely a card I would include in 2 mana slot if deck wasn't 30 cards max but alot of times you would rather just hero power for 1 mana instead of discovering random 1 drop.

Defender of Argus: Faceless Shambler was much superior option when you have a giant on the board.

Refreshment Vendor: A lot of times you are the aggressor against the control decks and sometimes you don't want to heal for 4 in order to enable Hooked Reavers and Molten Giants.
