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.

25: Tech choices/substitutions vs. current dragon and N'Zoth meta
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
16 but haven't played too much ranked yet this season, last season was 10 with this deck @ almost 70% WR
Interesting thought but I'm almost 100% positive that you'll be missing out on a dragon when you need one. This deck skimps on dragons already with no big dragons I.E. Ysera or Nefarian.
Crap deck. Gets easily wrecked by shaman and zoolock. So there is no easy climbing
Are you climbing 5+ already? I'm 3-3 against the mighty midrange shammy this season and 1-0 zoolock. The 3-0 mage and 3-2 druid doesn't hurt either.
I wonder if there is a way to work in Brann to get more value from Historian in control matchups? Maybe drop one Templar?
It's interesting you bring you this up.. I originally had Brann Bronzebeard but as great as the card is in control match ups they seem to be too few and far between on ladder. My replacement was Aldor Peacekeeper so the control match up didn't suffer but at the same time the deck kept it's strength against mid range.
GREEDINESS :Kreygasm: !
wtf is that "move" at the begin of the video? -.-
It's called "PogChamp" !
Forbidden Healing is a catch up card mostly for coming back in aggro match ups. Ivory Knight has a weaker effect but because of the spell discovery can be decent. Aldor Peacekeeper seems to be a good option although I feel lacking in low attack aggro match ups, at least when thinking about Ivory Knight. I'm currently testing it now, thanks for the suggestion.
