Update:
Since Arcane Giant is out and the Wild Pyromancer + Commanding Shout Combo has proven to be good in OTK Worgen Warrior a combo Grim Patron Deck is playable again.
Playing Arcane Giant instead of Worgen as a finisher allows you to have extra deck slots for stuff like Whirlwind and Grim Patron-
Just felt like sharing this one again. It is probably the closest a deck has been to the old Warsong Commander Grim Patron Warrior.
The deck has seen high legend play by multiple players.
This is my version of the Grim Patron Warrior.
I tried to built the deck all around card draw. The more cards you draw the more likely you will have the right cards to combo in your hand at the same time.
I did reach legend Rank 1 with it on April 18th. (just for a short time but still)
Also I did reach legend Rank 1 with it on May3th. (after changing one card)
If you want to see the deck in action, follow me on twitch ( http://www.twitch.tv/senfglas_ )
Legend Rank 1 April 18th:
Legend Rank 1 May 3rd:
Mulligan
vs Aggro:
Fiery War Axe , Unstable Ghoul, Whirlwind, Frothing Berserker (Dread Corsair if you have a weapon already and Death's Bite if you have a Dread Corsair already)
vs Control:
Fiery War Axe , Death's Bite, Gnomish Inventor, Slam(Emperor Thaurissan against really slow control decks only, Dread Corsair if you have a weapon already)
How to play:
vs Aggro:
Just try to fight for board control as much as you can in general. Anything else should be fine then. Against Face Hunter: try to race them with your weapons and Frothing Berserker
vs Control:
Try to draw as many cards as you can while not loosing the board too much (the more you draw the more likely you will be able to play your little combos). Play a couple of Grim Patron if you know your opponent should not be able to clear them or just save them for the combo with Warsong Commander ( + Commanding Shout eventually). Also always keep in mind that you might be able to almost oneshot your opponent with a big Frothing Berserker especially after you got some value from Emperor Thaurissan.
Questions and answers:
Why do you not play...
...Grommash:
It could be good but i never saw a reason to put him in. I think I do not need him as a finisher. And playing him just as a big guy makes my opponent get more value out of his single target remove cards (which he usually does not get against this deck).
...Axe Flinger:
I do not need face damage on like turn 4 or in midgame in general. I prefer playing Gnomish there for an extra card draw. It also is not the best finisher in this deck in late game.
...Inner Rage:
My Mana curve is pretty low already. Still it could work well with Acolyte, Grim Patron, Battle Rage.
...Bouncing Blade:
Why would I? The card is just too inconsistent in my opinion. Also I do not want to fill up my entire board with Grim Patrons. Because in case of AoE damage I need space for new Patrons to spawn.
In general I think it is always much easier to say what card could be good in a deck than saying what card would I remove for that. And all the cards I am playing right now are working just fine.
Also check out this 2 minute video FailCraft made about the deck.

Just hit legend with this deck in 2 days (with several changes though).
-2 Slam, -2 Gnomish Inventor, +1 Grommash, +1 Raging Worgen, +2 Inner Rage.
Worgen and Grommash are good alternative win conditions, given haste by Warsong Commander and activated by Inner Rage.
how is this deck against face hunter? what are the good and bad matchups?
I don't know why, but I can't seem to perform well with this deck efficiently. Don't get me wrong, it is loads of fun! However, I am struggling with it.
Amazing Deck!
Amazing late game killer combo just happened for me. I had Commander and Berserker on the board and Grim Patron and Commanding shout in my hand. My opponent is a Pally who already reset my Beserker's attack to one and he has a sludge belcher and a silver hand recruit and like 20 hp. I play the grim then the shout and with my Commander's charge I run into his belcher which spawns me another patron with charge AND commanding shout. I clear his belcher, clear his recruit, and by now, my berserker is at some ridiculous attack so I hit Pally Face and win. Amazing deck and ill be sad to see when the nerf the Patron. I bet they make him a 3-2
Doubt they nerf him. Nerfing cards isnt always the answer. And plus hes BRM they want the good cards in sets so people have to by it lol idk jk.
Any alternative to the Naxxramas axe? and could i replace the exploding ghoul with explosive sheep?
only played 3 games with it.
first game i got destroyed by a druid
second game i got destroyed by a druid
third game i destroyed another warrior playing the same build
the druid game stressed me so i stopped playing but it seems a fun deck to play ^^
Here's my stats after 100 games between rank 10 and rank 5 http://imgur.com/Lko2cy5. my first 20 or so games were mostly losses, as this is NOT a deck you will fully understand after 2 or 3 games. Once I understood it though, it's a real fun and consistent and competitive deck to play.
There are many deck trackers that do this for you. I used Hearthstone Deck Tracker, and like pretty much all the tracker it also is very helpful to tell you which cards are left in your deck.
Impressive that you got Legend #1 with this deck. Can't get it to work tbh. Followed you on Twitch, hope to see how you play it.
this deck is so fun to play, thank u
This is the perfect deck. It is somehow fun, cheap and pretty good at the same time.
Just tried this deck so far it's so fun . I played in casual to get a feel for the deck a few times and won most of my games and so far on ladder I'm on a 3 winning streak in ranked on Rank 8. I wanted to play a different deck cause I was bored and frustrated of seeing the same decks on ladder face hunter, mech mage etc. I was losing exceptionally to aggro . It tears aggro to shreds in my experience so far and steadily working but butt back up to rank 5 again and beyond that point to legend . I'm riding this deck all the way there .
What are your thoughts on Bouncing Blade? I've been playing it, and found that it allows you to pump damage into situations where your opponent feels safe. This is especially useful against opponents that get suspicious and begin to play hyper defensively.
Grim Patron + Bouncing Blade almost always fills the board with Grim Patrons. Thinking of the actual probabilities here makes me light-headed, so all I'll say is that it's very rare that this combo fails to saturate the board.
Acolyte of Pain + Bouncing Blade is a clumsy removal tool with an extremely high payoff (and you end up netting 1 free card after cycling 2, if you get shit on and hit the Acolyte of Pain three times).
Frothing Berserker + Bouncing Blade (+ Commanding Shout if you are not a man) (+ Grim Patron if you want to be a jackass)
Obviously it's RNG heavy, but hey that's Hearthstone in general.
Also, anything to say about Wild Pyromancer?
Read the deck summary.
i use dragon egg instead, its good early game
Fun deck. Surprisingly effective as well. Somehow only managed to lose so far to Gang Up Mill Rogue.
I'm playing this deck for a while (ranked) with nice results. I only did one change: -1 Gnomish Inventor, +1 Grommash Hellscream. I like this way to win too.
Everyone! GET OVER HERE!!
Whoops, wrong game.
I think you just need patience in those matches, don't roll out all your cards and try to maximize Frothing Berserk, my ratio against it is like 50/50.
