*Warning: Patron is now a meme deck - Proceed with caution*

 

These are my stats on EU, wasn't tracking on NA:( All feedback is appreciated, and my battletag is QtPie#1796 if anyone has any questions or just wants to add me on EU or NA :)

Patrons EU

 As requested, some video gameplay of the decklist:D Unfortunately, the game doesn't get to the point of patrons, but it showcases the strengths of the deck without them pretty well.

Deck Summary:

Patron Warrior is a deck that creates board control through use of its many whirlwind effects and self damaging abilities such as Inner Rage and Blood To Ichor to create and recreate multiple patrons. This deck targets aggressive decks such as zoo warlock and aggro shaman, but will tend to struggle against decks with reliable board clear such as Brawl andExcavated Evil. 

Card replacements:

Grommash Hellscream Is a tough card to replace, but if I were to recommend a replacement it would either be a second Slam or Kor'kron Elite.  

Ragnaros the Firelord can also be replaced with a Slam. It is a good idea to replace him with slam if you're facing a lot of aggro, even if you have the card.

Mulligan Guides

Zoo Warlock

 Keep Whirlwind, Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Ravaging Ghoul,Armorsmith

 

Very favourable matchup for you because of the amount of whirlwind effects. Hard mulligan for fiery war axe, its the most important card in this matchup. Try to make sure you have at least 1 whirlwind effect for after they useForbidden Ritual and use executes on their councilman / sea giants.

 Shaman

Keep Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Ravaging Ghoul,Acolyte of Pain,Armorsmith

 

KeepBlood To Ichor only if you have fiery war axe already. Slam can also be a decent keep vs shaman to activate execute on the 7/7. For the most part this is a favourable matchup, but it can be lost if the shaman is able to get out his Flamewreathed Faceless and you don't have execute for it. ALWAYS keep execute in your starting hand vs shaman.

 Control / C'thun Warrior

Keep Grim Patron, Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Acolyte of Pain,Sir Finley Mrrgglton

 

VERY hard matchup, mostly because they run double brawl. The best way to play this matchup is to NOT play around brawl and hope they don't have it.

 Priest

Keep Grim Patron, Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Acolyte of Pain

 

Another very bad matchup, Excavated Evil ruins what patron is all about. Similar to warrior,  you have two options. Either try to fill the board WITHOUT patrons in order to bait out excavated evil, or flood the board with patrons as early as you can and ignore excavated evil in hopes that they haven't drawn it.

 Mid Range Hunter

Keep Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Ravaging Ghoul, Armorsmith

 

This matchup is a 50/50. It really depends on how well they/ you draw. If the match goes until they can get out their Call of the Wild, then you will likely lose, but if you can manage to pressure them early on before turn 8 then it shouldn't be an issue.

 Tempo / Yogg Mage

Keep Frothing Berserker,Fiery War Axe,Ravaging Ghoul

 

Keep Bloodhoof Brave If you have the coin, they usually have to fireball it to remove it, otherwise hard mulligan for war axe.

 Druid

Keep Frothing Berserker, Fiery War Axe, Acolyte of Pain, Sir Finley Mrrgglton

 

Execute can also be decent to hold onto in case the druid innervates out a big minion. I would only recommend keeping execute if your hand is already looking decent. This is a favoured matchup since druids have a hard time removing patrons, and will often spawn more with cards like Swipe and C'Thun.
