UPDATE! HOLY MOLEY 150 UPVOTES! Wasn't expecting this for my first deck! I wanna say thanks to everyone who understands this is a budget deck and its made so newbie players can have a fun time climbing the ranks, and get to ranks without having to spend money! Thanks hearthpwn for the second deck mention! http://www.hearthpwn.com/news/3286-popular-hearthpwn-standard-and-wild-decks-of-the
This got me rank 20-10 in 1-2 days, the current meta at those ranks can't deal with a good hand or a taunted buffer that can make your deck go out of control, Stonehill Defender can get you all the broken pally legionaries, and he can get you lich king now as well as chain gang.
Possible Changes and modifications I ran for the longest time:
I recently added Crazed Alchemist to counter mage and priests doomsayer (other decks are running it too) and it can make scarab taunts into 5/1 which can be killed with a silverhand,
I used to run two Equality but it hurts your buffed minions and generally there aren't times you want to sacrifice tempo.
Possible Swaps, -1 Rallying Blade or Alchemist +1 Spikeridged Steed or +1 Acolyte of Pain (I stopped running double steed because it harms the deck, you want more buff targets and rallying blade is similar, acolyte can get you some good draws, a 4/6 acolyte makes your opponents pull their hair out)
-2 Hydrologist and +2 Equality or Spike (if up against too much control)
If you feel your board is being wiped alot, replace a hydroligist with a Skelemancer, this thing + buffs or spike or bonemare = cancer for your opponent
+10 upvotes and i'll write mulligan and strategy
UPDATE: 10 Updoots completed. Guide being written.
GUIDE:
Mulligan: Stick to low cost minions (1-3 cost), keep all buffs, get rid of spells or weapons (keep sword if you have divine shield targets or if youre up against warrior, mage, or priest) if you have a buff card in hand as you want the max buff targets!
Gameplay: Buff minions to gain attack and health, play them when you get the most effect, drop a argent protector for tempo if needed. Do not waste chillblade champion unless needed, always wait for a buff! Try to get a taunt down before you drop enforcer, that ensures you get the max amount of buffs, keep enforcer alive as long as possible, he can make your deck go wild!
Late Game: If your opponent has 20 hp, you have nothing in your hand, no tirion from the turtle, or no super buffed minions, just concede and go to the next game, don't waste time, otherwise, try to go for the best trades!
THANKS FOR THE MENTION HEARTHPWN! http://www.hearthpwn.com/news/3271-playing-hearthstone-on-a-budget-heres-our-top
I'm thinking Leeroy Jenkins wouldn't be too bad. Buffing him up multiple times for a huge charge for the final blow.
Opponent mostly ignores him you need some cards that gives Taunt...
Hey Kaj, I am LOVING this deck, so congrats x1000. Do you think a legendary like Tirion, Wicker or Tarim would fit in? Cause I have enough dust and I think that would give this deck a great boost, let me know!
EDIT: THIS DECK IS INSANE, NEVER BEEN SO HIGH IN LADDER JUST WOW.
I added Tirion to mine, I got from rank 15 to 8 in one day. I would add Tarim if I had it. They aren't included as it's a budget deck for those without legendaries/dust. If you have them worth buffing it up. Awesome deck by the way, well done Kaj
which card did u swap for tirion
Bonemare or dopple
Anything that could be replaced for Tirion Fordring?
Name idea — "My Hand is Too Swole"
I like it ;)
First of all solid deck to climb thanks for that! Took me from rank 13 to 5. After Rank 5 I had some horrible losses due to heavy control match ups. Overall 70% winrate with 37 wins and 16 losses.
very recommended budget deck
here my gameplay vs druid and shaman (which you will see quite a lot in ladder)

As a budget list, this is ok - otherwise the list is - sorry to say that kinda thrash in my opinion - you just missing out on so many important pieces right now in the meta
Im also playing a handbuff list since 2days which is quite different from that - but also here you can see some really good mentions for playing a handbuff list
especially Crazed alchemist and saronite chain gang are 2 cards you really wanna put into such a list - cheers up for that!
Heres my list if you wanna consider a look at this:

What a pointless comment. It's a budget deck, and you're sharing your 10,000 dust version? Try making a deck with only rares and commons and see how you get on.
looks like no one can even read the text
i said "as a budget list its totally ok" and even mentioned that there are some very good inclusions - sharing my list was just to give another mention on what you could do
but hey everyone jumping on the train "oh that cruel dude - he shares his 10k dust version - letz be mad at him
faith in community - officially lost
It says deck not found.
Literally played against 5 priests in a row. Lost every single game...
Took a break to make this post the next three matches all turn out to be a priest time to dust this deck
thanks i only have 3 competitive decks, so this deck help me a lot to finish missions
