Whenever I play a pirate deck I always play the song "He's A Pirate"

Me to :P

Nice idea! Please chek out my own list and take any idea from there!

Yeah I think having some turn 1 pirates could be a good thing for a deck like this. The interesting part about Patches is that there's potential for a "nuts" play. For instance, getting 2x gang-up and 2x preps in hand. You play this on the first Patches you summoned. Your hand is pretty much empty but any time you play a pirate, you swarm the board with 6 Patches. For your opponent to deal with this they'd need consistent aoe. You'd simply out last them in the early game and straight up win.

With the right set-up you can have 1 mana board clear/7 face damage. It's pretty crazy.

 It  lacks a good early game. You cannot rely on backstabs and SI agents to guarantee a good start these days, for there are so many 3-health minions, for mage, warlock, druid, shaman... 

I think that even the high tempo of playing a southsea captain and getting a 2/2 charge is not actually enough.

I have played a lot of pirate decks, even used to get to rank 3 with it before old gods. The pirate cost 1 minions are very important. Problem would be: you put Patches ingame before you would want to! 

Maybe turn 2+coin or turn 3 swashburglar/deckhand and gangup on patches would be quite effective.

Then you can follow-up with shady dealer before dropping another pirate to trigger effect. Also, there is no good drop-4 for pirates that would trigger Patches

That's actually really clever. I can't wait to see if it works out.
