Hello there. Here is a deck I used to hit legend this season. I hadn't played aggro paladin ever before and still managed to hit legend with it. I played this deck from rank 3 to legend with ~70% winrate. I managed to go trough the rank 1 without a loss in ~30 minutes. The deck is very budgety (only 1560 dust) and everyone should be able to craft it. Here is the legendary proof:
The deck is based on protecting you minions and trying to preserve board presence with divine shields while going face and buffing your minions. Trading is not wrong with this deck especially in the early game.
Some card explanations:
Wolfrider: Better than Arcane Golem in my opinion. Playing Wolfrider on turn 3 doesn't hurt you at all where as Arcane Golems battlecry is just awful. Also if your opponent can deal with Wolfrider they can very often also deal with Arcane Golem. Arcane Golem also hurts your Divine Favor giving your opponent possibility to play more cards.
Argent Protector: A really solid card in many match ups. Helps you play around board clears, protects your minions and makes trading easier.
Coghammer: A solid weapon which also protects you minions.
Piloted Shredder: The best 4 drop in the game in my opinion. Sticky which is really good in this deck since you can use you buffs andArgent Protectors on it. Sometimes the card can screw you over with Explosive Sheep or Doomsayer but that just happened to me once.
Divine Favor: One of the best "draw cards" card. Usually draws you atleast 3 cards. Isn't that good against aggro but I usually beat aggro anyways with this deck so it doesn't really matter. Really powerful against control. Don't always dump your hand entirely before playing this card. For example don't play Abusive Sergeant on an empty board just to draw 1 extra card, unless you are very desperate.
Mulliganing:
Always mulligan for your 1 and 2 drops. I also recommend keeping Muster for Battle in your opening hand if curve well into it. I recommend keeping owl in your opening hand against hunter and warlock since both of those classes have good silence targets (for example Mad Scientist, Nerubian Egg, Twilight Drake)
Match-ups:
Good match-ups for this deck are any kind of aggro decks and midrange decks. Also I noticed handlock to be good match-up for this deck.
Bad match-ups are control decks. Warrior and freeze mage are extremely hard to beat with this deck. Rogue is also difficult to beat because of their wide variety of board clears and direct removal spells. It really depends on your start and divine favor if you can manage to win the bad match-ups.
If you have any questions feel free to ask them in the comments.
good deck for getting to a higher rank, but definitely not going to get you to legendary fast unless lady luck really favours you.
I had everything for this deck besides the Coghammer, so I replaced it with an Echoing Ooze. The deck is working out excellently, and the Ooze is pretty good. At worst it's 2 mana for two 1/2 minions which is good in the role of this deck. But if you get get a blessing or an Argent Protector on an ooze, it becomes extremely valuable.
So funny that ppl actually need a guide how to play this 0 interaction and brain deck.
No equality?
Oh look, more cancer for f2p noobs to ruin the ladder with.
A 2nd Owl, for starters (which most Aggro Paladins run), and I also like running 1 Equality, though that choice doesn't seem to be too popular.
Sweet match for Divine Favor... 2 owls for taunts... Take care about life and molten giants... Looks easy...
Trying to replace Coghammer with either Arcane or Argus(!). Arcane is a good finish, as it is not destroyed of Harrison. Or Argus because of all of the other aggro and +1+1
I only have 1 muster for battle. what should i add in place of the other one?
Is Muster really that good? The 3 recruits for 3 mana is hella value, but could the extra 2 shit weapons cause a problem? You all ready have 1x Cog and 2x Truesilver. I can understand just using lights justice and swapping that shit out asap but isn't that a lost in value it self?
i want to put in a Sword of Justice what you can suggest to take out? :)
coghammer, but don't SoJ has been tried as a replacement by people who dont have coghammer and it's plain awful... I ended up crafting cog
Great deck. I just started playing this deck 10 mins. ago and so far played 6 ranked games with all of them conceding early or mid game.
Update....just lost my next 2 matches. Lol
Looking to play some more aggro, this looks like the ticket to try. Surprised to see no King Mukla though with the 2 Favors in there... thoughts on that?
too lazy to craft for msot people rofl. Especially with GT around the corner you want to save up dust for the next Dr.Boom chase legend and all the epics rares and staples.
Same with Fel reavers for Mech Shamans
I love you, man! This deck took me from 19 to 6 rank for 1 day! How about Big Game Hunter? It's good against every 5+ attack annoying enemies cards with Abusive Sergeant or Blessing of Might.
If you actually get enough value from BGH
have a board where you have to BGH
have an empty board and play BGH for nothing.
You're piloting the deck wrong m8.
But there are just better 3 drops,Bgh is kinda a lategame card and is a bad topdeck. as well as being useless vs aggro decks. Kezan Mystic would be better.
Is 1 owl really enough to get through all the strong taunts?
What do you think about taking out a Consecration and putting in an Equality? Equality + Consecration can basically clear anything, and it seems like Equality is good removal against taunts...
