Justicar hugely important.

I hope control warrior meta becomes a thing. Been playing some anyfin lately and keep running into them. Literally 95% chance to win, they're only way is brawl away both 'fins but they never do, instead blow them on acolytes and tokens. GL with that.

I put a moat lurker in my n'zoth control warrior and its been performing really well. You don't have to combo it w/ et+sylvanas. If your opponent just chooses to ignore your sylvanas you can punish them hard with it. Could use it on any deathrattle minion after a trade, this gives you a new one once lurker dies also protecting your board against aoe clears, and will give you a 2nd of that minion with n'zoth. Also just used it to eat a taunt minion for lethal, very interesting little card.

I've got a paladin daily quest and it is causing me to hate life. The only paladin deck I have together right now is dragon and it is terrible. I was able to win one 30 minute plus game against a control warrior today because he misplayed, drew too many cards and died to fatigue. 50 armor doesn't help for long when the damage is doubling each turn. The bonus in that game is that not only was his deck incredibly slow, he roped each turn as well.

I'm only at rank 11, does anybody have a paladin list for me to try that isn't suicide inducing?

I was also thinking along the lines of N'Zoth Hunter for the future though, but i'm not sure of the viability.

Its pretty good in wild, of course CotW is just as strong there too. Also hindered by the existence of secret pal like anything else, but I do run a single Eater. Wild has access to the really sick deathrattles still though like Mad Sci, Shredder and Belcher.

I have a lot of fun with Control Warrior. It's very frustrating to play against. I wish some people knew they lost 10 minutes before the end of the game though. Many times each player has 10 or more cards left and I know it's over because they're practically top decking and I have seven cards worth of options.

Well those players are bad.

Doesn't change the fact "OTK" pally is a bad match up for control warrior though/paladin should win every time so long they play it right.

Control warrior has no chance unless they drop justicar turn 5/6 or get a brann+shieldbearer.

Most of them? I go by VS's decklists but Rag in a Barnes deck is kind of obvious surely? I had one game where an opponent playing hunter dropped Barnes and a Rag token on turn 4. 3 turns later I conceded because I didn't draw any removal and I couldn't kill the token.
8 damage to face or a minion on turn 4 can be pretty crippling.
not hunter lists that ive seen. Barnes is thrown into the deck because hes great, but it doesnt try to maximize him. We need a high concentration of beasts, so youd have to either cut some of the 1 drops, removal or take out houndmaster plus some of the beasts. But, then its a different deck completely. Getting rag off a barnes is great and all, but when you dont draw barnes and rag clogs your hand while an aggro deck runs you over..

Not saying a hunter list with barnes and rag would be bad, and after cotw goes to 9 it might be better, but i just dont see how it fits in that list right now. The focus of the deck is putting enough pressure that cotw wins on the spot.

Got rank 5 on both EU and USA.

I had to try several decks across rank 6-7 bounce on USA and it was secret hunter that rose above all.

EU opened up to barnes meme deck lol.

The funny thing is murloc paladin is only good if it is rare (in standard, murk-eye changes things in wild), one garbage murloc really screws up their combo quite a bit.

2 of the hunter lists there run Rag. I am partial to VLPS Curator Secret Hunter one myself. For instance, Rag won me a game this morning against a Tempo Mage. He had Flamestriked off my CoTW, twice. He's at 10 with a Water Elemental up and 4 in hand. I drop Rag and hero. Now, Rag hits face which wins but clearing the Water Elemental would have been good as well as I had 2 minions up and options in hand.

I had two games yesterday where the opponent was at 8 health, turn 8, i was facing down the barrel and would have died next turn. Both Rag and CotW in hand - both times. Dropped Rag both times, won both times. First time was a 50% chance, as the opponent only had 1 minion on board. The second was a 20% and a complete Hail Mary.

Either way, the main reason why Rag is in either of those decks is because of Barnes. Without Barnes, i don't think Rag is put in.

Which was my original point. Rag has good synergy with Barnes but also has value in the 8 drop. It has to be dealt with. With CoTW going to 9 mana then I think the case for including him becomes stronger. As always, ymmv.
