Hi!
Gonna play this deck and some other cool inovative decks in a Strivewire tournament tonight (Monday)! Check it out on my twitch;

This is one of the decks that I am using post Karazhan. The Anyfin deck was working great and with the addition of The Curator it is even better!
The deck plays out just like before, and similar to the standard N'zoth paladin list. Control focus and keep you draw going until you can unleash your murlocs! One big thing that can sound trivial, remeber to keep track on your dead murlocs!! It can easily cost you the game!
New cards with Karazhan:
The Curator thins out your deck in a great way, and it gives you a faster way to OTK! Great value if you also can draw Azure Drake or Stampeding Kodo
Ivory Knight this card is wonderful! I think you can fit this card in almost any Paladin deck and in this list it is a true god! It gives you health, draw or clear what ever you need in the situation. It also gives you the option to take out the MUCH slower Lay on Hands and second Forbidden Healing and make room for stuff like The Curator and Azure Drake.
Tirion Fordring not new, but for the first time you can actually play control paladin without him. If you play super slow and pure pure control you can skip him for what ever you like, maybe weapon removal or Justicar Trueheart. I find the value in Tirion Fordring to be to insane to skip him but he acually dose nothing for your win condition.
Replacements:
Ragnaros, Lightlord cant be replaced! Lay on Hands is much slower! You can add Lay on hands but not play it instead of the Lightlord.
I got the tip about playing Medivh, the Guardian in the comments! It goes great with first anyfin, excellent with the spells from Ivory Knight and it makes the slower Lay on hands possible to play! If you dont have Tirion put in Medivh instead. If you play with Medivh you can play lay on hands if you are missing lighlord. Otherwise play medivh instead of tirion and swap humility for lay on hands and keep the lightlord.
Gameplay and mulligan:
Mulligan har for you lower cost minions. Try get you hands on your 2 and 3-drops.
save Consecration for mage, Truesilver Champion for rouge, Equality + Wild Pyromancer combo against all aggro matchups, etc.
I think the gameplay boils down to time and matches played with the deck. You need to know when to pace yourself and when to let your hand go. If you have answers dont mind the tempo, use your hero power! If you find yourself on the brink of losing control, try take some initiative! I must say that it took me almost all the way to golden paladin to really understand the gameplay in the slow paladin lists. Keep that in mind!
Give this a +1 if you like it, and please post you questions and feedback in the comments. Make sure you check out my other post Karazhan decks below!

Thank you for the deck. I swap some options. Enjoying this :)
Easily one of the best epics to craft so don't feel made about crafting 2 of them
It's an amazing card in controll decks. It can be played very versatility. It can be played on turn 2-3 to stall aggro decks, it can be played in later turns to absorb removal/burst cards. It can be played with cards like aldor or other minions that you dont mind saccing to either make them waste 7 damage/removal and leave you with minions or sets you up with an empty board on your turn.
I wonder what happens when u put medivh in. has great synergy with 1st anyfin, and if we would put in a lay on hands that would be potentially great. im worried he may be to slow, and u can win without him anyways.
Is there any place for eadric the pure?
card draw is really light without solemn vigil and without double loot hoarder. How do you find that holds up? Reynad was playing something similar the other night: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/623781-reynad-anyfin-control-paladin
Very nice deck, im playing a very similar version but with 2 Azure Drakes and Kodos for better Curator consistency. Hope this gets to the main page!
It doesn't seem you really came up with anything new here you just re-purposed what is already popular in the forming meta with adding the Curator in. I'm sure he has a place in the deck and fits well with the addition of the kodo. I myself am looking for someone who's doing a true dragon/beast/murloc full on curator combo deck. I put a quick something together as a test:
Curator Pally
I'm not advertising anything. It was a concept I was asking if he considered as a deck builder.
