Hey fellow Hearthstone Players! Here's the first of my collection of Gimmicky Decks!

While I see the joy in crafting the most powerful deck and climb the ladder quickly, I find that I get more joy in pulling the most ridiculous combos in gimmick decks. No doubt that they don't consistently pack a punch, but when they do, you'll really laugh out loud. 

So first up, a Warrior focused on Enraging and getting damage to buff up the minion. I have included as many enragers as possible: Raging Worgen, Tauren Warrior, Amani Berserker and Spiteful Smith. While I do know that there's Angry Chicken, but it's just seemed impossible for me to be able to enrage it. Hence until the day can find a way to buff the chicken, it'll not be added to this deck.

Other cards that I think synergizes well with the enrage mechanic would be Frothing Berserker, Whirlwind, Cruel Taskmaster, Inner Rage, Rampage, Charge. You can easily get Frothing Berserker to be buffed up from 2/4 to a 4/4 by trading minions. Protects it from Shadow Word and this itself matches with the gimmick of this deck, which is to buff up your minions by taking damage.

With this deck, I had managed to pull off the ridiculous combo of a Raging Worgen + Charge + Inner Rage + Rampage. That's a 11/5 creature with Windfury and Charge.

To protect my angry minions, I rely on Grommash's weapons to cleave away any standing threats. Hence the addition of Fiery War Axe, Arcanite Reaper and Gorehowl. Since there are weapons, why not a Bloodsail Raider? I don't know if Dread Corsair would be a better choice. Gurubashi Berserker seems like a good solid creature too.

But if you're constantly taking damage from using weapons, shield is definitely important to protect yourself. I find the possibility of removing Bloodsail Raider with Shield Block as Shield Block provides the required armor plus a card draw to draw into your enragers or buffs. If you just want card draw, Acolyte of Pain is a good option as it synergizes well with Cruel Taskmaster and Whirlwind to provide a definite card draw, and a 3/2 minion still trades pretty well. Battle Rage is probably another viable option for card draw.

I would appreciate any comments on this deck to make it slightly better. Till then, have fun!
