So this is a fun little deck, I am currently rank 2, have been playing it since rank 10 (with some deck switches) and exclusively since rank 5. I might write a bit of a more structured guide if people are interested, or if I eventually make it against all those Shamans after I hit legend.
Original "Guide" and card choices: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/5rustj/control_secret_paladin_non_meta_fun_deck_guide/
Win Condition against Aggro: Outheal + Outtaunt
Win Condition against Control: Mixture between Outvalue and Outtempo (games will not go to fatigue generally)
Tips:
- Turn 1 Redemption into Loot Hoarder is often a great start, since you don't have much draw
- Don't overplay the cards against Hex/Polymorph/Kazakus decks, getting those secrets on early/midgame minions so that they don't double punish you with hex is often better than going very gready
- Equality clear into doomsayer is one of the strongest N'Zothn set ups there are, and most of the time you win against pretty much every deck after such
- Don't keep Pyro against aggro without the coin, with the coin you have a nice pirate clear with coin plus secret, but often he is just awkward without coin
- The secrets proc after which minion was played first
- Wickerflame into Redemption or Getaway Kodo is very often GG against Pirate Warrior (both are definite keeps)
I am currently not able to track games, but very good match ups are Warrior (Control and Dragon really favoured, Pirates are still good) Renolock and Priests, bad matchups are Reno Mage and at the moment Druids (not sure about that). The variance in Shaman games is extreme, sometimes keeping Equality is great against a 4/7/7, sometimes they don't draw it and so on. Since I played pretty a lot of Shamans though and I still ranked up, I would say it is slightly higher than 50%. Jade Shamans depends if you get a good and early N'Zoth.
SInce i am not able to track games, here are a couple of screenshots that I am actually playing the deck at rank 5+: http://m.imgur.com/a/wkStj ,
I also played against Zetalot and P4nyhof in the last days if anybody is too bored to check that, and if you still don't belive me I was the guy getting 12 wins in the Heroic Tavern Brawl with Murloc Warlock, I am good at getting ok results with horrible decks: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/5demkd/tested_murlocs_in_hype_of_the_new_warlock_card/
I don't have any social media to plugg, but since everytime I saw MrYagut he advertised his Twitter I just leave a link to his Twitter. Personally I don't follow him and don't really care, but he cares, so who cares: https://twitter.com/mryagut
Lastly somebody played my deck against Thijs (old list, - Wickerflame, + Forbidden Healing), really awesome game to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leYc30bAlzw
you need 2 challengers to double the chance of finding it faster.
Fun deck so far, TY! I miss playing secrets :D
I have every card in this list except Cairne. Any replacement suggestions? I've thought of Barnes or Faceless Manipulator
I ran into this deck earlier with my n'zoth warrior. As soon as I realized I was gonna have to deal with 6 tirion fordring's off of nzoth i conceded. Very good deck
replacements for Wickerflame?
Heya. Think I saw you post this on Reddit. Either way I've been playing it for the past few days. Beyond anything, it's just a fun deck to play. The fact that it wins is also great. Good job.
I played this deck last night, and I got a win but card draw is an issue tho.
