Card Explanation and Replacement:
-Blood To Ichor: This is a good card against Aggro/Flood decks because he deals 1 damage and summons a 2/2 for 1 Mana, and also it's in combo with cards like Execute, Acolyte of Pain and in some cases Armorsmith
-Execute: This is one of the best removal of the game, and with the warrior you don't have any problem to damage an opponent's minion, you have cards like Blood To Ichor, Cruel Taskmaster and Ravaging Ghoul
-Shield Slam: Like Execute this is one of the best removal of the game, with your Hero Power synergy or with cards like Shield Block, Bash, Justicar Trueheart you don't have any problem to remove your opponent's Big minion
-Armorsmith: Against Aggro decks like Flood Paladin, Zoo, Face Hunter and Egg Druid this is a very solid minion, but also against Control decks too, because it is very hard to deal 4 damages in the first 4 turns. If you find many Face Shaman you could think to replace him with Doomsayer
-Cruel Taskmaster: This is a good card against Aggro decks dealing 1 damage, or giving to one of your minion +2 attack if you need or to damage one of your opponent's minion. Very good card with Execute, Acolyte of Pain and Grommash Hellscream.
-Fiery War Axe: The best weapon to destroy minion in the first turns.
-Bash: This is a Frostbolt with 3 mana cost and also it gives you 3 Armor. Good removal
-Ravaging Ghoul: This is the perfect card against Flood decks like Zoo and Flood Paladin destroying every 1/1 minions, it is a Whirlwind with a 3/3 body, Astonishing! It is a very good card with Execute and Acolyte of Pain
-Shield Block: This and Acolyte of Pain are your draw cards, and also It gives you 5 Armor, so good with Shield Slam, on turn 4 you could destroy a 5 health minion and Armoring up for 5 Armor
-Brawl: I know, in this card you have some RNG, because if your opponents play Onyxia and you use it, Onyxia could survive, but this is too unlikely. Also you have Sylvanas Windrunner on board and you use Brawl, if one of your opponent's minion survives you stole it. The Dream
-Gorehowl: imho the best weapon in the game, it can deal 28 damage if you attack minions, too strong!
-Grommash Hellscream: Your finisher, with Cruel Taskmaster you can deal 12 damages, it is also strong if you have to remove an opponent's minion and put a 10 attack minion on the board.
-Acolyte of Pain: You best card draw also also it is a good minion against Aggro decks, if you can draw at least two cards, you have created an huge value. So good with Blood To Ichor, Cruel Taskmaster and Ravaging Ghoul
-Nexus-Champion Saraad: I love this card, a 4/5 body for 5 mana is not too bad, but his effect can allow you too many combo or just giving you an health card or a burst card. This and Elise Starseeker are very different, because Nexus-Champion Saraad adds cards to your hands without drawing from your deck, all this kind of carts, like discover cards, gives you an huge value and also if you play it, your opponent has to remove it spending some tempo. If you don't like this card you can replace it with Harrison Jones or The Black Knight
-Cairne Bloodhoof: Before nerf and the Standard, It was a bad card, your opponent always silenced it, and it was too slow. Now this card is back, If you consider it could be an 8/10 for 6 mana, this is Insane. Your opponents never play silencer cards, so this forced your opponent not to play AoE cards and if he uses them you'll still have a 4/5 minion. As Nexus-Champion Saraad you can replace it with Harrison Jones or The Black Knight
-Justicar Trueheart: This card in a Warrior deck is insane, after you summon it every want you want you can spend 2 mana and you'll have 4 Armor, this is broken
-Sylvanas Windrunner: Simply the best legendary card atm. If you need you can destroy it with Shield Slam or other cards if you need to stole an opponent's minion. UNREPLACEBLE
-Ragnaros the Firelord: You can use it to remove a big minion or to deal 8 damages on your opponent's face, If it starts sniping it can be Insane and with the BGH nerf it becomes difficult to remove it. You can replace it with Baron Geddon or if you want Chromaggus.
-Alexstrasza: "I bring Life and Hope". You can use it to make your opponent's health 15 and the next turn finish him with Grommash Hellscream + Cruel Taskmaster or to make you 15 health if you are next to die.
-Deathwing: Your last winning card. If you are on fatigue against another Contorl Warrior and you know he used every removal, playing it can make you win. If you are against Aggro decks, your opponent's board is full and you don't have any removal, you can play it. Imho it is a very very strong card but if you don't love it you can replace it win Ysera
I hope you liked my guide and I'm sorry for my English. If you have any questions don't have any problem to ask it to me.
UPDATE 2: Thanks to all of you boys!

HEH, GREETINGS!
As someone plays CW as their Religion, happy to see an interest list like this. DW is Always a Timmy card as well :D
I was thinking the one flaw i see with this kind of list it doesnt Run Monkey or the BloodHoof Bravo to help against aggro, because trust me, there are times where you get run over without those cards. So im curious to hear how you deal with that.
What do you think of Baron Geddon? Zoo gives this deck fits.
I switched Baron for Cairne, not that Cairne was bad, it just got outrun by turn 7 dudes and Baron works wonders against aggro.
yeah its still alive and expensive as its ever been lol. Willing to try it out though :)
replacement for nexus, deathwing and 1 brawl?
deathwing can b replaced with ysera, nexus with Harrison / TBK depends on the meta call, but nothing can really replace the brawl
Replace brawl with revenge or some kind of whirlwind effect. Brawl is stronger but against zoo and other aggro decks, revenge or whirlwind should be good enough.
ok thank you i will try ysera baron and revenge. I have varian too, does he haveplace in this deck.
Imho Elise Starseeker is a must have. It wins you the mirror match ups
subbed her for Nexus. Deck works really great and Deathwing saved my ass a few times as well.
Nice deck, ez wins so far!
replacement for Alexstrasza?
Is it worth it to craft this deck for 4800 dust? I have all cards except deathwing, cairne, and nexus. I have the dust to craft them, and I reaallly wanna reach legend, been trying out SO many different decks, I've been a cw player for about 2-3 months now and highest I reached was rank 7. This deck looks pretty interesting so I was wondering. Craft them all or not?
If you have that much dust then just play sjow's tempo warrior or the rank 1 control war that doesn't run so many legendary. Both those decks are able to hit legend
Have all the cards for that except Malkorokk, since well..I just crafted cairne. So the question is saraad for this deck or malkorokk (which I can pretty easily replace with gorehowl).
Screw it I'll just yolo craft nexus and hope for the best, I'll let you know how the deck works out!
What do you think of removing bashes for Fierce Monkeys? Its a great 3 drop, and taunt against aggro.
Its a nice deck but you cant win N'zoth Paladins. They just swarm the board with justicar hero power and then wait until you have used 2 brawls and N'zoth on empty board and u cant deal with that.
N'Zoth paladin destorys this deck 100% absolutely no way to win.
You're right it is still alive :D ! And a bit different with Saraad and Deathwing, NICE!!! :3
Really enjoyed the video man! keep it up
