I made Legend this season with this deck, first time Legend woot woot!

Deck is fairly straight forward, armor up as much as possible and keep control of the board. Applying pressure early against combo decks like mage is key too. Use Coldlight Oracle and Brann Bronzebeard to deal damage when your opponent hits fatigue range. Darius Crowley was a replacement for Zilliax but did really well and was glad I had him for Demon Hunter match up.

If this deck gets enough likes I can post a mulligan guide if people want :).

My match ups going from D4-Legend:

Mulligan Guide update: First I would like to say thank you to everyone who upvoted me, I never expected this deck to get so many likes. So with that I have prepared a general mulligan guide/strategy section for this deck.

Control warrior doesn't is a very reactive heavy deck, which is good because it gives us options for every game, but not a ton to do for the first couple turns outside of hero power. Our only proactive cards are Eternium Rover, EVIL Quartermaster and Imprisoned Gan'arg. These are keeps in just about every match up.

For aggro decks I like to keep cards like Reckless Flurry, Shield Slam and Bladestorm. These will help keep the early board clear and the first two work well with our plan of armor up every turn possible. If I know my opponent is playing a deck that plays weapons such as Pirate warrior, Rogue, or Hunter I like to mulligan aggressively for Gluttonous Ooze

For slower control decks the best card to actually keep is Dr. Boom, Mad Genius as playing him as early as possible and abusing his hero power will generate a ton of value. 

A few match up specific mulligans:

Warlock(Handlock/Cubelock): Handlock/cubelock can be a tough match up since they can generate devastating plays early with cards like Voidcaller and Carnivorous Cube and we only have so many board clears. Shield Slam works very well in this match up as you can kill any minion with only about 2 armor ups. I also like keeping Coldlight Oracle for early plays vs them as they then to have about 8-9 cards in hand at any given time.

Mecha'Thun Combo Variants: Mecha'thun is probably the worst match up to see, we can't close out a game too early and they get draw their deck and combo off while we sit with a bunch of board clears dead in hand. Luckily same as Handlock these decks tend to have a lot of cards in hand and Brann Bronzebeard and Coldlight Oracle combo will do a lot of work against these decks, milling combo pieces.  

These are the decks I personally struggle with the most on ladder. Other match ups are fairly straight forward. Armor up, get out of lethal range, and keep the board clear. 

General Strategy: Odd warrior sadly doesn't have many early game plays so be patient and just armor up the first couple turns, you can take a couple lumps before you need to worry about running out removal. If your hero power negates the damage on board its generally better to just save the removal. Turn 3 is where we can really start playing cards though. Our only real plays at this point are gonna be Shield Block or EVIL Quartermaster. Play Shield Block if you expect a big minion early and want a easy clean up with Shield Slam. Once we hit turn 5 the options become greater. Play things Dyn-o-matic to clear small boards. Only use Brawl for dire board states you wouldn't be able to deal with otherwise. Darius Crowley andSupercollider are pretty situational, but they are good in the right board state. Darius Crowley is good vs boards that can't generate a lot of minions in one turn, as he can get big enough to trade with most things. Supercollider is a hard card to use think about minion placement and what to attack first. 

If there is any other questions you guys have about the deck I'd be more than happy to try to answer. Best of luck with the list!
