New Rally! card from Darkmoon Races has major impact in this deck. It has a nice interaction with Brazen Zealot, since the 1-drop is summoned first, it will always get a +2 attack if Rally! resurrects its full complement.
Mulligans: If you have the coin, High Abbess Alura is always a keep, or if you have First Day of School in your opening hand. Otherwise just go for a smooth curve -- the dream is a 1-, a 2-, and a 3-drop, plus Rally!. Because of the mana cost curve of this deck, this happens more often than you might expect. If your opponent manages to deal with all three minions turn-by-turn, they all immediately come back the next turn! It can be a huge tempo swing. If you have the coin, Brazen Zealot or Intrepid Initiate plus another one drop is a classic aggro opener.
The general strategy is to put pressure on with on-curve strong minions, refuel with Rally!, Underlight Angling Rod, Hand of A'dal and Salhet's Pride. Get as much face damage as you can amidst value trades, finish your opponent with Blessing of Kings and Blessing of Authority combined with Argent Braggart. Also, as usual, Alura can give you auto-wins when you get lucky enough to play her with a zero-cost spell on turn 4, and you get lucky again and pull Blessing of Authority.
I'm considering trying Crabrider in this deck... any other ideas anyone? I'm sure it could be refined further.
A bit about me: I've been playing Hearthstone for quite some time, but this is the first deck I've posted. I took a several year break from Hearthstone but have recently picked it back up, and made it to legend for the first time this season (not with this deck). This seems to be doing quite well in low legend currently though I have a small sample so far (19 games).
I made this deck according to the guide, while spraying almost my entire collection and I believe that I can fully ask from this deck. I play 12 times and 5 of this win. That deck lose for spelldruid, big druid, all variations of warlock (bit have little chance to win), priest, but win for big weapon rogue, agro hunter, mage.
If you still not win on turn 8-9 you can brave concede.
Not bad deck, but not excellent deck for legend. Better then agro hunter, but imho spelldruid will be the best.
That's deck is so great. Just hitted legend so easy with 15-6 (with 10 straight wins) after replacing braggart for crabrider and kobold for broomstick.
Congratulations! Thanks for sharing this -- happy to see the deck is working for someone else. Also great to hear that Crabrider works well, and Animated Broomstick is a good idea too. I might give these modifications a try since I recently hit a pocket meta where this deck is not doing well.
didnt try it yet but im pretty sure you cant play braggart with rally
Generally I tend to play Braggart in the later game, after I've already done my Rally! turn(s). Otherwise, yes, playing Braggart before Rally! will pollute the resurrection pool and you could end up with a 1/1, which is pretty weak, but this is a small price to pay to keep Braggart in the deck for its late game value. So far I haven't found it to be a big issue.
