Usually decks that try to do too many things don't work out well because if your opponent is already at 6hp by turn 5, topdecking uther instead of say leeroy can mean that you lose the game. But i like the idea anyway because uther and beardo are very cool so i hope you succed with it.
Cool idea, but I agree with the 'trying to do too much' assessment above.
The Uther OTK is a slow, combo, win condition that doesn't match with aggro.
You could build it to empty hand and Divine Favor to cycle though I guess? Hmm... the OTK is probably still too clunky to actually work...
Yeah that's part of the idea. I can cycle really fast trough my deck with divine favour and blessing of wisdom. So I either win before or get the combo ready pretty fast usually
And I also should mention call to arms. I run a total of 7 one drops +kele'seth. So thining my deck also helps getting the combo ready if needed
Update: Amazingly enough I streaked myself back to 7 again after my 9 wins in a row and my fall back to 9 I went to 7 in a streak of 5 consecutive wins again. One of those by otk.
Hardest part of this deck is to decide wether to use the coin early in hope of an early win or wether to keep it for the combo when going second. Other than that burgly bully turn 5 getting two coins and finishing on 6 with a dinosize is a sick combo too
Edit: Streak of 7 wins in a row meanwhile..7 full stars.. looks like it is really possible
That's an interesting idea but there might be too many expensive/combo cards for an aggro deck. If you are running Dinosize, Uther, Bullies, Beardo and Blessing of Wisdom, that's at least 7 cards out of 30 that don't contribute to a rush gameplan and can screw your Divine Favors. Perhaps, a more midrange variant without Divine Favors would work better? Maybe add Loot Hoarders to draw cards instead?
Two wins away from 5 now. It actually appears to be working somehow :D
I know that midrange build but I'd have to change my complete list to make that work.
The general idea of my deck is combining the explosive power of aggro with the combo to either win the game by pressure or keeping control of the game by pressure to make a surprising finish with the combo..which actually works surprisingly good against warlocks who turtle up because of my aggressive behaviour before the combo.
One dinosize , corpstaker and the 1/1 windfurry Falkon give me another 20 damage combo as well as some survivability against aggro because of lifesteal from chillblade.
Kinda :D I guess if I reach something crazy with it I'll put the list up here. For now I just wanted to ask around if someone else is trying something similar and what the community thinks about it...
I mean I know even if I put up the list people probably won't jump on it like crazy and it won't flood the ladder..but better safe than sorry :D the less people expect a sudden crazy otk the easier it is to catch them off guard
And of course it reserves me bragging rights if the list surfaces anyway because people who faced me copied it^^
Update: After falling from 6 to 8 again I removed the otk core and replaced it with zola and one spellbreaker..the deck suffered to much from everyone teching spellbreaker since they could silence the burgely bully.
And just now I hit 5 with it. No otk anymore still a bit meme and still homebrew.. awesome :D
Had an crazy idea for a deck. It's similar to the aggro variant from frozen throne but with call for arms and an otk Uther beardo core.
I'll try and catch 5 with it. Am I crazy? Anyone else running this or something similar?

My first run was amazing. Went from 10 to 7 in one streak 9 wins in 10 games. Finished 7 with aggression and two against warlocks with the combo.
But now I'm back at 9 seems like murloc paladin and tempomage are this decks Achilles heel

And you're not posting it because you're afraid the community will go nuts over it?

Failed the last battle to 5 three times now..would be super awesome to finally hit it with a homebrew deck of mine
I mean I reach it every month with some kind of netdeck but this would be a nice change of things
