I played a few games and it worked out well,i'm not sure if it can be good at laddering but it's fun.

 

GUIDE

Ok so,the main goal of the deck is to kill your opponent before turn 9-10

You can easily do that by building a huge board with Violet Teacher and Power of the Wild.

OR  gain control by playing minions like Faerie Dragon which is hard to be killed and Blackwing Technician then buffing them.

AND there is always dat 9/9 Drakonid Crusher you can play after making a Savage Roar play to secure the win(if you haven't killed him yet :D ) or if he is below 15 HP.

Use Blackwing Corruptor for tempo swings.

Use Savage Roar to finish your opponent. ( i only run one because you can discover more from Raven Idol and because you have other ways of finishing your opponent,2 Savage Roar is too much.

MULLIGANS

Best start

Lucky?Best hand you keep in any situation is Violet Teacher and Innervate plus another 2-mana spell (best one Power of the Wild can win you games before turn 6.

Against Shaman

Wrath,Faerie Dragon,Druid of the Saber,Mark of Y'Shaarj and Innervate with a 3-4 mana minion or you can take the risk and keep it anyways. Against shaman your goal is to get a better board than them fast,Innervate is the key card here,playing Druid of the Flame or Blackwing Technician on turn 1 can win you the whole game.Finish them with a Savage Roar.

Well he had the combo there but you get what i mean..uhh.

Against Warrior

If it is aggro,just race them.The damage output of your deck is much higher especially with Savage Roar if you feel like they outdamage you have to play minions like Blackwing Technician,Faerie Dragon and Blackwing Corruptor orDruid of the Claw,Druid of the Saber,Druid of the Flame buffed with Mark of Y'Shaarj if they are beasts .Buff them with Power of the Wild.

If it's a control deck it is much easier,try setting up lethal as fast as possible with Violet Teacher or by dumping sticky things on board,like Blackwing Technician and Druid of the Flame.Play Savage Roar to finish them fast because if you reach turn 9-10 and youre nowhere close to killing them,you lost.

Main cards you are looking for are Innervate and a 3-4 drop,Wrath,Druid of the Saber,Mark of Y'Shaarj with a beast or with Power of the Wild (risky though)

Against Warlock

Wrath,Faerie Dragon,Druid of the Saber,Mark of Y'Shaarj and Innervate with a 3-4 mana minion or you can take the risk but it's also good if you can play two 2-drops same time/play a spell same time with minion.

If it is Renolock most of the time you will win,make a fair board at turns 1-4 and burst them down at turn 5 before they are able to play Reno.You are not afraid of Hellfire while you have buffed minions with Power of the Wild or Blackwing Technician,Druid of the Flame.

Zoolock is favoured too,making a big turn with Violet Teacher and Power of the Wild or playing minions like Faerie Dragon (immune to Mortal Coil) but also with Blackwing Technician and Druid of the Flame that will waste their resources..there is also Swipe that can win you games alone! Consider keeping Starfall from Raven Idol if you are healthy and know you are facing zoolock.

Against Rogue

Haven't played against many rogues but minions like Faerie Dragon will make them struggle since they cannot use their Backstab to kill it.

Blackwing Technician and Druid of the Flame are difficult to be removed.Be careful when doing plays with Violet Teacher though because there is Fan of Knives,if you go for teacher play make sure that you have aPower of the Wild that you can play same turn so they will need spell damage to clear and not just a single spell..

Cards are the same as against shaman and warlock,Wrath,Faerie Dragon,Druid of the Saber,Mark of Y'Shaarj and Innervate with a 3-4 mana minion but it's also good if you can play two 2-drops same time/play a spell same time with minion.

Against Priest

Played only once against priest,i'm not sure but mulligans should be like warlock's,rogue's and shaman's.

Easy matchup,they cannot handle the pressure and with a good board setup Savage Roar is going to be deadly!

Against Mage

Against tempo mage keep Wrath,Faerie Dragon (super good),Innervate and also a 2-mana beast with Mark of Y'Shaarj (prefferably Druid of the Saber and not the panther from Power of the Wild.

Against Freeze Mage,Feral Rage is the key card here,many times i would just discover a Feral Rage from Raven Idol,gain 8 armour and see my opponent concede :D Apart from that try burst them down before the Alexstrasza turn.

Against Paladin

Aggro paladin is just a joke,race them the damage you deal can't be compared with their,a good Swipe and 8 armour from Feral Rage will usually be enought to win you the game.

N'zoth Paladin is slighlty unfavoured due to much healing,though if they do not board clear and just set the attack of your minions to 1.Savage Roar is GG. Try to burst them down as fast as possible and always play your minions with 5 hp like Blackwing Technician and Druid of the Flame,they happen a turn before their Truesilver Champion and they also have 5hp unable to be killed by just the weapon.

Cards like Wrath,Faerie Dragon,Druid of the Saber,Innervate,Power of the Wild if you do not have other early game minions or you are able to go for Violet Teacher and Innervate combo.If you know its not aggro go for 3-drops too.

Against Hunter

Easy matchup,hunter cannot keep up with you,making good Violet Teacher plays with Power of the Wild but also buffing a beast with Mark of Y'Shaarj is gonna be hard for them to deal with,many times using a deadly shot for minions like this without expecting a Blackwing Technician or a Druid of the Flame.Something else you can also do is Fandral Staghelm with Power of the Wild another hard board to be removed by hunter,also fandral's hp will be 6,out of Kill Command range.

Same mulligans as shaman's,warlock's,rogue's.

Against Druid

C'thun druid is a medium difficulty matchup,try and kill them before they go into their big plays with Dark Arakkoa and Twin Emperor Vek'lor

Keep Wrath,Faerie Dragon,Druid of the Saber,Innervate and sometimes even 3-drops. Blackwing Corruptor is gonna help you allot against them.

Token Druid is kind of a race,but they do not have the required cards to keep killing your 3-drops,many times they will end-up trading their whole board to a buffed Druid of the Flame or Blackwing Technician.

Same mulligans as c'thun druid,you are able to keep 3-drops since their deck can be slow and their big plays will begin from turn 4 with a Violet Teacher most of the time,a good Swipe there will give you huge advantage.

KEEP IN MIND, you can win games after turn 8 but its harder,Raven Idol can give you the cards you need,discovering Wisps of the Old Gods for example and playing the card after baiting a board clear,can give you wins after turn 8. See image under mage mulligans.

REPLACEMENTS AND TWEAKS FOR META ADJUSTMENT

Ragnaros the Firelord-> Although i wouldn't recommend replacing such a good card,you could try replacing it with Chillmaw,Chromaggus,Ysera,Sylvanas Windrunner,Twilight Guardian even though most of these cards are slow.

Fandral Staghelm-> There is not another card with the same effect as fandral's but you can replace him with a Twilight Guardian a second Violet Teacher or some other 4-5 drop.

Slow/Control Meta? You may add Ysera or Chromaggus or even Nefarian into the deck.

Not Getting your dragons?  Adding Nourish or Twilight Guardian can help.

Comeback Engine? Praise Yogg-Saron, Hope's End

Winrate coming soon!
