I learned the hard way today that your fatigue damage is associated with your hero, not your deck. I was hoping to pull a sly win off on a hunter by fatiguing myself to 5 damage and then using King Togwaggle + Naturalize to trade him my deck and have him get hit for 6, 7 and then 8 when his next turn started. Turns out that he actually got hit for 1, 2 and 3 damage to my surprise. It's a bit of a bummer that it works this way but now I know for next time!
Yeah this is one of those things like that where it's hard to know which way it'll be. I think in my case I wasn't really sure but gambled on drawing more to set it back, so I thought it was possible it wouldn't work.
I remember another one of those things was whether or not minions will die if they have only 1 health left when something like Stormwind Champion die (they don't; the "extra health" is used up first).
A lot of people figured this out way back in GvG with Malorne. Even more recent cards like Jade Idol and Dead Man's Hand I thought had made this interaction common knowledge.
P.S. I just realized you were talking about trading your fatigue with the deck. Which is definitely a new way of interacting, so my post is moot.

It's not something that people talk about really; you only learn about it when you see it happen. Whether or not that scenario is common, some people don't run into even common things for a while. It happens. =P
Who thinks it's tied to the deck? I think you're alone on this one buddy
It's so obvious, for example if you manage to put a card into your deck after you already took fatigue damage (A jade idol, a pack from Elise or whatever other method you can think of), you draw the said card, then the next turn you'll take the next level of fatigue, so for example, take 1 fatigue, play elise, next turn you draw the pack, next turn you take 2 fatigue damage, it's tied to the character and how many times did the said character have the need to draw but had no cards to do so, if the fatigue was tied to the deck then king Togg would be going from a terrible meme that's not even worth to be played to a fairly decent card, justput all the card draw in your deck and then take some huge fatigue ticks and just switch decks to your opponent for a sort of OTK.
Wow, i mean it is an interesting thought, that fatigue could be tied to a deck ... but like how do u even come up with that?:D It's actually amazing how some ppl interpret certain mechanics. Dont take this in a wrong way, im just amazed how human mind works sometimes :)
Man these responses... I'm sorry I'm not a super-genius like the rest of you. I thought your whole deck state got swapped, including fatigue counter. It doesn't seem that unreasonable since the number of cards gets swapped. Of course that turns out to not be the case but I feel like this shouldn't be some earth-shattering surprise that someone would actually think that...

I guess if you think there are invisible fatigue cards under your deck it makes sense.
