2 ways to win : fatigue or yogg. in most of the cases you don't even need yogg .
This deck is very very fun, you just always have answers and you win by fatigue but if there will be 1 moment when you don't have proper answer there comes yogg to save the day
This deck is hard to play, will write guide if it gets 25 upvotes
(possible replacement: -1x Mortal Strike +1x Heroic Strike )
Guide :
tips and explanations about cards:
Shield Block - Never use Shield Block when you have 3 or 4 mana and armor up available( if you aren't in lethal range ofc) because you can play Shield Block always but you can use that turn's armor up only that turn so just save Shield Block for the moment when it will fit in curve.
Upgrade! - Upgrade! is very flexible card you can use it on minions with 1 health or if u miss 1 damage to remove something or to make minion execute target( ofc if you can afford facetanking damage) also can be used on Fiery War Axe if u need 1 more damage or charge on it. Using it on Gorehowl is for face damage only and it's spell for Yogg-Saron, Hope's End
Bloodmage Thalnos - this card has synergy with 14 cards in deck. you can also play this card for card draw or just tempo.
Brawl - against aggro/midrange don't use this card too early, keep it as long as you can afford and get as much value as possible but don't overextend stay out of lethal range. against control you usually don't need 2 brawls and sometimes you can use brawl on 2 minions as single target removal but thats usually when they don't have many minions left in deck.
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End - don't be too greedy about this card, use it when they are in lead and you don't have proper answer or just don't want to waste many resources. for example: opponent played Ragnaros the Firelord on empty board and you can kill it with Shield Slam + Execute but you don't want to waste that much, just play yogg and he will do his job :D (it's like extra removal) .Generally only bad spells for you are : Astral Communion , Renounce Darkness and Shadowform .
General Strategy:
You generally want to go to fatigue and win by Golden Monkey + Tank Up when they have small amount or not at all threats left. if you see that they have more threats left than you can remove and you don't have Yogg-Saron, Hope's End, so you have no win condition left, just play Golden Monkey ASAP.
Against Control
You need as many armor up as possible, as i said earlier don't play Shield Block over armor up when on 3 / 4 mana if you don't need draws or armor desperately.
In this matchup Justicar Trueheart is one of the key cards.
always count what threats they have left or may have and save removals accordingly, for example always save 1 execute for C'Thun if you are versus C'Thun deck.
if you get 2 brawls in hand you can use brawl even on 2 minions if you don't want to waste other resources for removing both minions. and if you know that they haven't left many minions and can't fill board for good brawl, don't just wait for good moment .
Against Aggro/Midrange
Brawl is the card you need. try to remove early threats but when you will realise that you can't keep up with their tempo that means that it's time for [card]Brawl[/card don't just waste it right away, try to get as much value as possible, hold on it as much as you can afford and when you will see that you aren't getting more value or it is more than enough, then play it but beware of overextending, stay out of lethal range.
Bloodmage Thalnos gets big value here with spells like Cleave , Slam , Revenge and Bash .
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End - is pretty useful card also helps you swing games where you didn't get Brawl or it wasn't enough.
when you stabilize Justicar Trueheart helps you close the game out.
let's not forget about Revenge it made me do huge swings when they didn't expect.

Fur0 made awesome video highlighting this deck.
About replacements ask in comments and i will answer you
i'm sorry if grammar or spelling is wrong i am not native english speaker.
I hope you will enjoy the deck :)
Dude this deck is awesome.it's not the best but it's so entertaining playing it. Nice one.
Just you are bad, as i said deck is very very hard to play but strong if played well
Well, casino Mage was called casino because there were a lot of random based cards: portal, arcane missiles, flamewaker etc. You can't call a deck "casino" with the only rng card
Following JonasNeu96's comment, even if you don't win with Yogg the other win condition is Golden Monkey... which turns all your remaining cards into random legendaries.
That's why Casino Warrior is a very appropriate name
Lol, I see 13 rng cards...
The deck is fun when it works, but it's only a 33% win deck, and decks that win so infrequently simply aren't fun
Kobold Geomancer
Loot Hoarder.
I have thalnos for card dra and spell damage if you want to replace it with same stats Kobold Geomancer is replacement but you can try Bloodhoof Brave / Arathi Weaponsmith / Ravaging Ghoul
Can u reccomend to me rep for revenge ?
2xWhirlwind or Ravaging Ghoul and Whirlwind
I find it odd that a Casino deck doesn't use Malkorok, It can win or lose you the game depending on the outcome and it's a really good tempo card.
This deck doesnt need tempo cards and malkoroks battelcry doesn't fit in deck
I assume you don't want to be using Slam for card draw if main win condition is fatigue? Unless used with execute?
Love the deck bro though, Love Yogg and love fatigue decks...
Unless you're facing another control warrior, you should use slam to draw whenever possible imo
depends on situation if they are ahead in draws you can draw, if you need draws desperately and you know that you need golden monkey or yogg asap you should draw also, if not just finish minions with it
When one of your win conditions is yogg-saron its pretty much casino and nice logic "i don't like the name so -1 " are you looking for decks or names?
Casino without Malkorok?
Played the game on rank 5 today: Video
The deck itself is fine, but IMO there are stronger Yogg-Fatigue Warrior variants out there. I would add some more minions for a few of the weaker spells like Cleave. This will of course reduce the amount of spells but will increase the overall strength of the deck.
Youtube-Player:
awesome video :) i will add it in description . i counted 2 major missplays first is you played Shield Block when u had 4 mana left and armor up available and when you played Upgrade! on Gorehowl you should have gone face with it because there is no point in keeping charge of Gorehowl. i would add more minions but i don't feel there is place for them and Cleave isn't weak it helps you deal with midrange- aggro decks like tempo mage one of the best targets for cleave with their Sorcerer's Apprentice and Cult Sorcerer . and with Bloodmage Thalnos it's becoming very strong
