Well Met !
I am a French player playing in team Millenium. I did top 32 at the last Dreamhack Winter and i am almost always top 100 on the EU ladder.

Today i am here to present the best Paladin Dragon deck possible (currently made with only the 3 first wings). I did top 50 quite easily with it and i really think it is possible to climb even higher with it. I managed to build a deck that will bring you a lot of fun and make you grind even in legend. What are you waiting for ?
Match-Up :
Strong against : Druid, Zoo, Warrior, Paladin, Tempo Mage
50/50 Match-up : Hunter, Handlock, Priest
Weak against : Rogue, Mage Frost
Why don't i play ?
- Azure Drake : I think the curve with azure drake is too high. You have a very good late game and i think the Lay on Hands is enough. Playing too much turn 5 can cost you games. I prefer playing 2 Twilight Drake that will you make gain the board.
- Antique Healbot : By experience (since i played almost 50 games with the deck), you need it only against hunter face. It's not useful against Zoo since you are playing the board. But even without the healbot i have a 50% against hunter face. That's why i chose not to play the card.
- Onyxia : You have Alextraza and Ysera that will be more consistent. But eventually if you do not have both of these legendaries, you can fill the spot with Onyxia.
- Iron Beak Owl : You can consider removing a Zombie Chow for an Iron Beak Owl.
What will change with the 5th wing of BRM :
As for the 5th wing, i am not a huge fan of the dragons that will appear. But Blackwing Corruptor should easily be put in the deck.
Thanks for the reply. I've swapped a few cards and it seems be to working fairly well. :)
Merci Origin pour ce deck et les explications, je testerai ce soir, même si je suis pas sûr qu'à mon rang il tienne la route (13) !
This deck is greedy as hell. It wont work at all for people that are non legend where everything is aggro.
Tech in an Antikill bot
Changes that I made (Rank 6 on ladder atm):
- Sylvanas Windrunner, testing both her and Emperor Thaurissan in this deck, don't know which one is best yet.
- Loatheb, the deck already has a lot of 5-drops with good stats.
- The Black Knight, I never have trouble removing their taunts.
I guess you're really facing a lot of druids. So I understand why you put these legendaries in the deck. But I feel druids aren't a problem to win against. Anyways, here are the subs I put in:
+ Antique Healbot
+ Cult Master
+ Ironbeak Owl
Antique Healbot is in here because I found the aggro matchup pretty hard. I might be doing something wrong here but the 8 health often keeps me alive while going in for lethal.
It's also pretty good against druid to stay out of combo range when they get a fast start. Grim Warrior is also a thing now so the heal might buy you some more time to draw into Equality - Consecration or a taunt or something.
Cult Master still has synergie with the 1 Muster for Battle and your hero power. I often found myself with very few cards in hand in the control matchups. Especially against priest. So it's quite obvious why this a choice I made. With wing 3 this will probably be replaced with Solemn Vigil.
Ironbeak Owl, just don't feel safe without it. Sylvanas Windrunner can screw you over if you don't have a silence. Also silencing key minions like Warsong Commander, Hobgoblin, Mechwarper, ... can mess with your opponents entire deck strategy. Also faced a lot of zoo, and I absolutely hate Nerubian Egg. And because I took out The Black Knight I really felt in need of a silence for minions like Tirion Fordring and Ancient of War.
I'm happy to see a pretty good Dragon Pally deck in week 3 already. But most important thing is: This deck is so much fun to play!! Congrats!
Really very good changes to an already awesome deck. Thank you for sharing!
Cult master doe.. :D xD
Really nice changes!
I won my first match in round 11 and never got a single dragon lol
