The idea for this deck came about after I queued into a strange Paladin list in casual wild. I couldn't figure out what the point of the deck was, and I let my opponent live for a few turns while he set up the Da Undatakah with the deathrattles of Immortal Prelate and Silver Vanguard. I thought the combo was cool, but the deck I had played against was abysmal. I did a bit of research, and have found several videos of streamers playing this Da Undatakah combo, always in a reborn paladin shell. It clearly sucked.
However, I was doing some thinking. This is a 3 card combo that could be shoehorned into any paladin deck for an endgame value win condition. I first wondered about some sort of control paladin, but quickly decided that control pally was trash and adding 3 bad cards to it certainly wouldn't work.
Instead, why not put these cards into Tip the Scales paladin? This deck runs out of cards incredibly quickly, and often runs Zephrys the Great and/or DQ Alex as a final push/win condition. What if I just swapped that package for some infinite value?
This led to some pretty direct swaps from the standard (wild lul) murloc paladin.
Lastly, I added Kobold Sandtrooper just to make up the third deathrattle. I'm not sure this is at all necessary, and if someone has a better idea to round out the 3 deathrattles I would love to hear it. Perhaps wiffing on the 3rd deathrattle is the best plan, and another murloc could take its place.
If anyone has ideas on how to improve this, I would love to hear them.
And if anyone has the cards and wants to play test this that would be amazing.
Thanks, hope this sounded as interesting to you as it did to me,

This is entirely a theorycraft, I myself cannot play this deck as I am a lowly f2p and do not want to craft Da Undatakah.

Zephrys, DQ Alex, and Murgur Murgurgle (the last one is tragic, but the prime is 8 cost so it must be done) make way for the combo of Da Undatakah, Immortal Prelate, and Silver Vanguard.
Felfin Navigator was cut for Defender of Argus. Argus is important, because giving dreadsteed permanent taunt is extremely useful.
