Well met !!
This is a midrange paladin deck that features the new cards Argent Braggart and Animated Broomstick alongside the libram package and a cycle package to control the board early, draw lots of cards and chuck out some big boys to stomp the opponent out.
loads of flexibility and features multiple win conditions, however struggles against infinite resource generation if the game isn't closed out fast enough.
Think about it like the two braggarts are two security guard buddies for the big lads Uther plays, because the deck always has both braggarts and brooms by turns 4-5, meaning it features insane consistency.

MULLIGAN:

always keep: Aldor Attendant, Aldor Truthseeker, Crystology, Salhet's Pride, Hand of A'dal and matchup specific win conditions (Loatheb versus a priest etc),
always toss: everything else, because we will find it later
ABSOLUTELY ALWAYS toss Argent Braggart, Animated Broomstick and Loot Hoarder, we want to find them with our super cycle engine !!

want to maybe fit in:
Righteous Protector
Hobgoblin
Wild Pyromancer
First Day of School
High Abbess Alura
Loot Hoarder + Vectus combo
Libram of Wisdom + Wild Pyromancer
Blessing of Authority

Edit 1:

- After some play testing, Lynessa Sunsorrow is slow, unworth, clogs the hand, and is not proactive, too greedy and doesn't act when we need it.
- still need to test with Lady Liadrin, maybe needs 1 more spell to be worth consistenly,
- swapped in Loot Hoarder, Vectus and Keeper of Uldaman to fill out cycle-midgame
- shield of honour is a genuine consideration at this point
- The rest of the deck functions really well, draw is pretty consistent and im closing out games with Loatheb and Sunkeeper Tarim
- Libram of Justice & Lord Barov feel really really strong, especially seeing we often have so many 1/1's and other small minions chilling on the board
- cut Consecration clogged up the hand pretty often and didn't do enough when we needed it
- Animated Broomstick and Argent Braggart are very very good at taking the board back and reacting to big drops, feels very strong i like a lot

Edit 2:

Alright after playing a bunch of games with this current version (might change idk), the deck feels very consistent. Whether it is more powerful or not, the deck is very consistent.
- Early game usually consists or cycling the butt tonnes of draw cards and filtering the deck
- mid game you are discounting librams, still drawing and should have both Argent Braggarts and Animated Broomsticks in hand by now and around 15 cards left in the deck
- ending the game is deciding when to use all 4 above cards against whatever deck you are facing, ideally you swing the board to your favor
- Games have usually ended with either Libram of Hope, Loatheb, Sunkeeper Tarim or Murgurgle Prime + braggart/broomstick (renamed the deck hehe)
- pressing the button is very strong as a filling move, 1/1's are super useful

my concensus so far is that this is a pretty decent tier 2 or tier 3 deck! very content :)

Edit 3:

- Swapped Vectus for Blessing of Authority, synergises well with Argent Braggart and Lady Liadrin, and the draw was already consistent enough
- pushed from D8 to D5 around about 10-4, so a pretty decent winrate thus far, maybe cheeky legend soon?
