This is a control deck I made using the Highlander and Dragon archetypes for maximum efficiency and control. All these cards help stop the tempo and control aggro decks as well as keep up with other control decks. A lot of the cards have useful synergies that go well together.

Mulligan against aggro:

 Bonechewer Brawler, Air Raid, Sir Finley of the Sands, Consecration.

Mulligan against control:

 Sir Finley of the Sands, Subdue, Desperate Measures, Hand of A'dal, and Aldor Attendant.

Relevant combos:

Wild Pyromancer and Libram of Justice is obviously one of our best board wiping combos along with Libram of Justice and Consecration. Also using Wild Pyromancer with Subdue is a great combo.

Wild Pyromancer can also be used with Lightforged Blessing and some other spells to trigger a lifesteal with his aoe 1 damage burn. Preferably buff it after using Lightforged Blessing so it lives longer and can do more damage. Triggering it's passive with Desperate Measures and using the 1 mana spells from Cobalt Spellkin will work wonders late game.

Sir Finley of the Sands offers so much versatility. Basically giving you a free hero power of your choice to help against whatever match-up comes up. Upgraded Fireblast, Heal, and Shapeshift offer so much value against control decks in the early game. As well as Upgraded DH, Lifetap, and the rest also help with other match-ups.

Cobalt Spellkin and Vulpera Scoundrel offer versatility along with Zephrys the Great to control the board even more by getting spells you may need during that turn or for other turns.

Bone Wraith combos nicely with Desperate Measures especially if you get Redemption with it.

Scalerider and Burrowing Scorpid are great lower cost cards that help keep control of the board or in late game if you need a tiny bit more damage to finish off a minion or even to finish off the hero.

Nozdormu the Timeless offers a great 4 mana 8//8 for late game or a tempo killer in early game against aggro. Recommended to not use against Control decks early as that will help them put out much more things than you. 

Will update more later.
