Edit: Bumping this thread as I see a lot of CW help threads on the first page.
I'm running Deathlords in CW again as some secredins aren't running silence ATM and it's the best answer for shielded minibot ATM.
A lot of people seem to be playing CW atm or have questions about it.
I just hit top 200 legend with my CW and thought I'd help anyone who had questions (Such as how to deal with X opener from another class or a screenshot of a situation you don't know the best play)
No one really streams patron anymore, or at least atm, patron used to absolutely destroy paladin and now all these new archetypes feel way to fast for patron to keep up.
Any tips? At the moment I'm only winning by getting 4 patrons out on turn 5 with them having no consec in hand.
@Super - As far as I know, pmuch no warrior deck runs silence. You don't need bgh in this meta. You really don't. Rag is a personal choice.
@Gat - That's my personal opinion, I could be wrong
@Radyr - That's your opinion. This also runs deathlords, believe me you need it all. I've only lost 5 games, since r10, whilst not impressive, considering it destroyed everything that's quing mid-high ladder I believe it's fine.
Also as a note to all, don't expect to play the same deck to legend. You have to switch depending on what you play against. If you queue into a lot of non-paladin aggro, queue this. Only against paladin? Tempo mage away.
I don't know about yall but all I've played is token-style decks. Double brawl geddon is VERY unexpected and not played around in most matchups. To each their own.
This deck takes advantage of all the midrange hunter, zoo, flood/secret paladin, and midshaman matchups by focusing on heavy board removal with good late game like any control warrior.
Why no Sylv? - Too slow VS aggro and vs control ALWAYS gets silenced. IMHO it's only good vs other CWs, which, is an easy matchup if you know how to correctly use your removal VS them. Even a deck like this easily beats other CWs, especially those with Varian Wrynn.
Emperor? - I hate this card in CW. I really do think it's useless. But the good news is people STILL overextend or overuse to get rid of this, so basically I found this card to eat KC, flood trades, and most importantly hexes/earth shocks.
2 Brawls and Geddon? - If you've qued the ladder, you'll know why ;)
Deathlord? - Amazing synergy with brawl and geddon. VS aggro this will rarely lose you the game, but if I mulligan this card I ALWAYS keep and execute or brawl with it. Lost more games not having one.
Replacements? - You can replace emperor and justicar with whatever you feel. Personally, Justicar is pretty important VS shamans from what I've found, and you can replace emperor with anything that will eat removal. Deathwing is fun :3
This deck is meant for the ladder grind. I'm not say top 3 legend deck XXX. Often, top 3 legend decks are actually pretty bad for whatever is quing on the ladder.
Going from rank 10 to rank 3 I had 5 losses. No exaggeration or anything. This is how well it works in the meta.
4 paladin and 1 shaman, where I made an obvious misplay and I know I lost.
I actually dropped 3 starts playing freeze mage because I thought it would be really good versus paladin.
End Note-----------------------------------------------------
If you struggle with shaman, Thunder Bluff variant is the only way you'll lose this matchup. I've had bad starting hands where they t1 zombie chow t2 coin Tuskarr+Golem. Double brawl is your friend.
Paladin is paladin, play it to leave, if it's secret paladin DUMP YOUR HAND. I beat a r230 legend by trying something new and just removing everything from my hand and came back from 1 health. Obviously, hard matchup.
If you have any suggestions or would like to ask questions below feel free, kinda wrote this in a hurry. Thanks!
I'm seeing a lot of people posting about easy legend with combo druid (Obviously, not a hard deck to play albeit. So I get that)
Personally, I play oil rogue religiously and even with some of the best mass-board clear in the game I go 50/50 with these decks (@r4/5)
Now combo druid, with technically no mass board removal, I don't see how it could win against such hyper-aggressive decks such as these, not to mention if you get a semi-bad hand vs patron that seems to go out the window aswell.

Is being at r3 this early any good? I usually push late season and I dunno if I'm on par.
Also, I'm playing combless taunt/ramp druid so trying to change it up ;)
