Congrats on your first legend! Good call on adding Kolkar Pack Runner, Mankrik and Barak Kodobane, in the post-nerf meta mage popularity significantly decreased so board presence is valuable again since it won’t be cleared with cheap spells anymore, i think the decklist i posted is still good enough but your version is better!
True, skipping turn 1 significantly lowers the winrate. Also after the nerfs face hunter became extremely popular, it's a new deck to beat like mage was before the nerfs, so i expect the rise of priests and other unfavorable matchups, let's hope our warlock friends will keep them in check with the help of Tickatus :)
Personally i had success against paladins, 16-4 overall score and average game lasted 6.2 turns so basically you have to kill them before they use Libram of Hope otherwise you're screwed and i don't think card draw would change anything since you want to spend all your mana at the start building a board and then on turns 4-7 play burn spells with hero power or use Trampling Rhino, you don't have time to sit back and draw cards. But i can totally see this deck not doing well against paladins, just checked the overall winrate on HSReplay against secret libram paladin and it's extremely low-30%, before checking i thought it's around 45% based on my personal experience. If you want more card draw-you can try version with Barak Kodobane and Mankrik but i doubt it will improve paladin matchup.
