My problem is, the deck is stupid expensive - I'm missing quite a few cards, Namely Bulwark, Barov, Stickyfingers, 1x Bladestorm, and Ancharr.
Are these replaceable? If not, can someone point me to a more budget friendly version of the deck? I have a lot of cards, but I refuse to craft trash like Ancharr when it's going to rotate out in a couple months.
That deck doesn't look that good. It looks like your whole plan is gaining a bunch of armor and then killing your opponent through boredom while you assemble C'thun. You should instead try the ETC version. Just as effective against aggro (which you beat by running out of resources and armor) and then it has a more reliable finisher in the ETC combo. It also run 2 less legendaries and no sticky fingers. Here's the list:
Ancharr is non negociable. The deck can technically still work without that card but you'll tank a lot of % in your winrate. The ability of thinning your deck is essential in this deck and drawing the skippers is too crucial in a lot of match-ups cause otherwise you die.
Bladestorm is non negociable. You're a deck that's either trying to run the opponent out of threats or stall long enough to ETC slow decks, for both Bladestorm is essential so you absolutely need it.
Barov is pretty importante but you can probably play the deck without him. His basically a panic button, a way to remove big shit that would otherwise not die. He can also help you remove wide boards that are problematic. You'll for sure lose some % but I don't think the deck dies without him.
Bulwark is only needed for 1 match-up. Sadly that match up is Soul DH which is arguably the best deck but for sure the most popular. It's not that the weapon auto-wins you the game but it does make like a 15-20% winrate difference. Taking it from a slightly unfavorable match-up to a slightly favorable (almost straight up favorable. Bulwark gives you a huge edge against Soul DH; They don't have room for pen flingers anymore which means they don't have many ways to do cheap damage. Their hero power can be used for this but they need to hit you 4 times and they'll have weapons equipped often so that's a terrible tempo loss for them. That allows you to draw into your ETC combo and OTK them.
Sticky fingers is just not a good card. People are so freaked out about weapons, specially vs Soul DH but in reality it's not like it makes the match-up that much better. In a non weapon match-up the card is totally death and it sucks hard. If you're still so worried about opposing weapons just run Ooze. it's still not a good card but it doesn't suck as much. I think if you have Harrison Jones he's probably useful for this deck as he has the draw as well.

So the new control warrior seems pretty good, especially considering the current meta.

turns out orange cards are pretty good
