While I was browsing my collection, I noticed that I have all the important class cards for pallies (except for Tirion Fordring).
However, I kinda struggle to play with this class. Even while doing dailies with some netdeck, I don't play as skillfully as I would with other classes.
Could you guys give some advice on how to play this class?
1.Try to save stuff in your hand and use your hero power as much as you can to generate value (ad yet not lose tempo)
2.Sometimes trade 1-2 silver hand recruits before playing Quartermaster (if you plan on playing him in the next few turns) to make him belive you don't have the card.
3. Save your concequality or pyroquality combo for big clears
4.Truesilver Champion is a valuable resourse try to use it effectively too don't trade it on unsignificant minions you can trade your board with.
For aggressive paladin decks. Many of paladins strongest cards drop on turn 4, and they all work best if you have a board on that turn. Blessing of Kings and Truesilver Champion. Thus early sticky minions that trade well are their bread and butter when you play midrange or agro. Following that they favor whatever can hit hard and fast or a mix of smaller minions and card draw.
Control paladin has some of the best and cheapest board clears in the game. The challenge is being on board before and keeping on board after. Control paladin, when it looses often looses to superior tempo in other decks who can take a board wipe and come right back at them.
What they really don't have is any kind of cheap targeted hard removal that doesn't also impact their own board. This means they have to own the minion trading game to win.
Also keep in mind paladin can do burst damage well. They have lots of cheap and strong minion buffs that can rush people down but are vulnerable to control decks that can get a lot of card advantage hard removing buffed up minions.
I've always had the best luck with aggressive midrange paladins that play on a curve with a lot of value minions and trade aggressively for board.

Now on twitch, there is basically nobody who plays pally, if you find someone, watch him play, thats how i learned it. you make mistakes with pally while not even seeing it. watching others will definetly help
I suggest you watch Trump's videos on Youtube, he had a lot of games last season with Paladin. That would be a great place to start to learn how to play the deck.
