As the name suggests, this deck combines the good stuffs of Paladins, Minotaurs and Gunslingers.
Total of 14 Paladins, 11 Minotaurs, and 9 Gunslingers.
There are mixed race of Gunslinger Minotaur, and Minotaur Paladin, hence
Tavrod, Auric Broker is there to draw them!
Classic Paladins combo include
Anointer of the Faithful into
Hojan, Crownbreaker or
Copperhall Paladin can really ramp well. If that is not enough, we have
Brel, Solist Apostate to ramp to end game.
this deck is consistent in doing what it supposed to do, as there are few digging mechanisms, there are 4 merchants and 4
Rise to the Challenge including one in the market for you to dig for any card you want. There are 11 Minotaurs and 8 Weapons for 4
Tavrod, Auric Broker to dig and to boost damage for.
Hideout Pistol is a really good and cheap removal. And the more Tavrod throws cards into void, no problem, that is exactly what the
Smuggler's Stash is for in the market to recycle any card.
Dramatist's Mask is a really fun and powerful card to play with and synergizes very well with the units in this deck.
Inquisitor's Blade when played on
Tavrod, Auric Broker is really formidable.
Vanquisher's Blade in the market is the answer to reanimator decks in case it is needed for.
You can
Rise to the Challenge for a
Starsteel Daisho or
Auric Runehammer to answer threats or if
Tavrod, Auric Broker digs them out, it is usually the end.
i never face any difficulties fixing colors with 3
Petition and 3
Winchest Cargo together with all the crests to scout and
Token of Ambition.
Winchest Cargo sometimes can be a lottery surprise when it draws a super powerful card with Winchest Contraband.
Match-ups:
Against aggro: there are sufficient lifesteal from
Anointer of the Faithful,
Hojan, Crownbreaker and
Copperhall Paladin to survive early threats and Tavrod's endurance can hold the line. If all else fail,
Harsh Rule
Against midrange: not much of a problem since our paladins combo are quite beefy enough to go rough.
Hideout Pistol can take out chosen unit. use
Rise to the Challenge or
Tavrod, Auric Broker to get your wanted weapons
Auric Runehammer or
Starsteel Daisho to answer threats accordingly.
Harsh Rule if the board goes out of control.
Against Control: this is a tougher matchup. Add
Bore or some fast spells aegis into the deck while swapping out
Stella, the Shotcaller,
Rakano Sheriff or even
Brel, Solist Apostate.
this deck can be played as a combo midrange as well as partially as control, due to a lot of tutor cards. have fun, feel free to give your valuable comments
