Trying out 2x Smuggler's Run for -2x Nightbane Templar
Also taking Wickerflame Burnbristle and Solemn Vigil in place of Ragnaros, Lightlord and Netherspite Historian
IF you're looking for faster deck for S33 (Gadgetzan release) then might I suggest my Jade Golem Rogue.
The True Heroes
N'Zoth, the Corruptor:
Bringing back three of the strongest deathrattle minions of all time.
Wickerflame Burnbristle:
Will save your ass in those aggro match ups.
Dragon Consort
This tempo IS UNREAL.
Deck made to reach ranks 5 - 10 during seasons 30 - 32. Past that you will have a more difficult time (especially in MSoG.) This is a tempo driven deck with hella reach. Some skill required (like any dragon deck.) Most of the time you will play on curve, high value minions. General and meta mulligan guide below. More votes, more detail! AND MORE VIDS!
11/11/16 - Removed Ragnaros the Firelord and put in the correct Ragnaros, Lightlord. Had my Rag's mixed up.
12/12/16 - Replaced altogether now by Wickerflame Burnbristle for current meta.

My Pilot vs. Dragon Warrior

50: 'All' meta match up videos w/ detailed play style explanations
- Tech choices/substitutions vs. current dragon and N'Zoth meta:
N'Zoth, the Corruptor: Honestly this card has to go into every palladin deck. You're going to have Tirion Fordring and Sylvanas Windrunner anyway.
Cairne Bloodhoof: The third strongest death rattle you have available that will benefit this deck type. If the meta were more aggro and less midrange I'd suggest swapping Chillmaw at that point.
Chillmaw: This is an excellent card however just like Ysera is too slow and often ends up clearing or damaging your own minions as you are at least competing for the board already when played. If you don't have Cairne Bloodhoof then you probably do run Chillmaw.
Ysera: My average turn per game was 8 last season and 8.5 this season so far (now up to 11.) Even in control match ups you have N'Zoth, the Corruptor and Netherspite Historian. This card is too slow.
Alexstrasza: Not conventionally in dragon pally but a strong card. Still doesn't fit this deck and I feel if it has a place in dragon decks maybe mage.
Ragnaros the Firelord: Honestly just have too many big minions already. Rag would be great.
Forbidden Healing: I'm still considering this card but for now I do think Aldor Peacekeeper is better in the current meta.
Ivory Knight: I really want to make this card work but I feel like Keeper of Uldaman is doing better in this meta.
Wild Pyromancer: Has the same issue as Chillmaw in that it clears your board.
Nightbane Templar: Always was the weaker link in the deck. Especially without this next card.
Brann Bronzebeard: I really want this to fit in but before this could go in we'd need more healing and there already isn't enough room.
Ragnaros, Lightlord: Run this if you don't have Wickerflame Burnbristle but know that these cards were switched out so the aggro match up is more favorable.
Cards I really like but still don't fit with N'Zoth:
Onyxia: Great card stats wise.
Nefarian: Too much RNG for me but another strong card.
Loot Hoarder: I've often considered putting in one for a Netherspite Historian.
If you guys have any other cards that you believe fit let me know in the comments below. - General mulligan:
Aggro: Keep Faerie Dragon, Equality, Consecrate, Blackwing Technician, and Grimestreet Outfitter
Consider keeping Netherspite Historian if you have a Faerie Dragon.
Tempo/Midrange: Keep Faerie Dragon, Blackwing Technician, and Grimestreet Outfitter
Consider keeping Netherspite Historian if you have a Faerie Dragon, also Truesilver Champion is great to keep if you're going second and feel like the match will be slow enough.
Control/OTK: Keep Blackwing Technician, [/card], [card]Netherspite Historian, and Truesilver Champion
If you have Netherspite Historian, Blackwing Technician.. KEEP ANY DRAGON.
Consider keeping Aldor Peacekeeper and Ivory Knight IF your hand looks good.
- Meta mulligan:
Meta has changed since MSoG release. Know the meta and what archetype you are more than likely matched up with!
This deck is very finely tuned but if you're missing a card feel free to ask about possible replacements below in the comments and I will give my advice.
Props to Eightlimb for his EU dragon deck that gave me the inspiration. You can find it here: Midrange Dragon Pally
Additional Props to Khristophesaurus for the spotlight video. You can find his youtube channel here
Amen brutha!
You have zero chance beating zoolock and as you can see none of the videos are zoo. You will also lose a lot of frustrating games to face damage from rogues/mages.
Other than that the deck is fun!
at least write easy climb low ranks lol
Sounds like what you're looking for is a legend deck? Personally I don't recommend taking this deck all the way to legend, but thanks for the suggestion and I'll write that into the description.
Secret hunter won't be anywhere near the majority of your games, and every deck has a counter. I don't think BGH works near as well as either Keepers.
If you are hitting a lot of secret hunter you can replace a Keeper of your choice with Forbidden Healing or Ivory Knight or even replace Cairne Bloodhoof with Chillmaw but all of those options make you weaker to the anti-shaman warriors and mages which I feel like you do run into more often.
Sounds like you need to be running the original dragon pally version. There's a link to a dragon pally deck I like here
N'Zoth, the Corruptor and Sylvanas Windrunner are definitely cards to craft and come back to later
worst deck ever
Would you like to expand on that?
Very viable, and balanced deck. Title dont miss the thing ---> easy climb especially at low ranks
Chillmaw might work alright. Although I'd probably use either Keeper of Uldaman or Forbidden Healing.
I like the idea that combines dragon deck and n'zoth deck together. Big Heart <3
Hmm I find it interesting people are losing so much to shaman. My winrate vs shaman has always been 50% or above with this deck and is one of the main reasons why it is viable to climb with (as well as a good chance of beating other shaman counters like freeze mage.)
No Cairne here.
Best to replace with Rag or are there better options?
Possibly Harrison Jones?
id probably say chillmaw if you have him, he will be brought back by n'zoth and has dragon synergy
It's tough replacing one of the three death rattles and saying there's still room for N'Zoth, the Corruptor so you may have to use Chillmaw.
No chillmaw either.
I think from the cards i own Abomination is the deathrattle closest resembling chillmaw.
Maybe that one?
Don't think i have other deathrattles worth replacing Cairne, or it would be Wobbling Runts, but no legendaries.
Probably just run the dragon version here
Actually Priest is hell match-up for any kind of control deck like this. They are you, on steroids. With your cards.
Funny I'm 3-0 against priest on ladder this season. I am pretty pro at baiting those entombs though. Definitely can't let them hit Tirion Fordring.
Honestly the real hell is that new secret hunter. They always get the god hand I swear -_-
