Hello there once again,

Update 19/9/2017: Removed the Consecration since we will see much less aggro druids right now (hopefully) and added one Stormwatcher for the sick effect of windfury to the Corpsetakers which gives a more aggro character to the deck. With the new nerfs and the downfall of murloc paladin,this deck might actually shine even more !

This time i've come up with a very interesting and fun to play deck.Let me introduce you Bolvar, Fireblood and his gang!

I haven't seen many divine shield paladins around, on legend ranks and i decided to give it a try and see how it goes.The results are very encouraging! It does pretty solid vs jade druids,the majority of the ladder at the moment, and has very good results versus pirate warriors and aggro/token druids.It is also extremely fun to play,especially if you manage to play Bolvar, Fireblood early and pimp him straight ahead.He is pretty much unstoppable if he's buffed many times and we can compare him in a way with Questing Adventurer.But obviously its not your only win condition! Building up your divine shield minions from early on can win you the majority of games without even drawing Bolvar, Fireblood.You also have strong midrange game with Sunkeeper TarimBonemare and Tirion Fordring together with the 2 steeds.

So let me explain general mulligan and some general tips:

You always want to search for the early divine shield minions like Righteous ProtectorArgent Squire and Wickerflame Burnbristle.If you combo these together with Rallying Blade, Light's Sorrow or Blood Knight on early turns, your opponent will have a really hard time dealing with the dangers. Vs aggro decks having a Corpsetaker exactly on turn 4 is a huge advantage. You can also re-divine your minions with Argent Protector which is also a really good card to combo with Bolvar, Fireblood.Steward of Darkshire can provide insane value to combo with the weapons,blood knight or Bolvar aswell.Also do not forget that it equips divine shield on the minions from noble sacrifice which is kinda good for buffing Bolvar, Fireblood or your weapon! You can use Hydrologist to bring your divine minions back to life or in your hand. If you play these cards wisely you can wreck your opponent pretty much on first 5-7 turns. If you however  don't have such a good hand, that's no problem since you have other cards to build up your board and put pressure on your opponent till you win, which i mentioned above as the strong midrange game.

As for possible replacements,if you face a lot of taunt minions you could remove the Consecration for a The Black Knight or a second Spellbreaker,if you don't own or don't want to craft him.

It is a deck that you gotta try out for sure and you will not regret this as it is really enjoyable to play :)

I hope you guys have fun with the gameplay and cu soon !
