Mulligan for early game control cards to destroy the enemys small minions.

A standard Control Warrior with Fierce Monkey Monkey and without Shield Slam espacilly vs Aggro Decks. I play it mostly at the end of the season where most of the Players choose extrem aggro decks.

The Fierce Monkey kills 2 or more small creatures in most cases and gives you more value vs aggro than Shield Slam

I build this Deck because i don’t own Shield Slam (after playing 1 Year ;( )but it works very fine.

Early Game

At the beginning you have to control the board heavily. Every minion who enters the field has to die. Use your Fiery War Axe to kill monsters and it’s no problem to play Slam and kill a minion. You don’t need the card draw vs. aggro decks. A nice combo is turn 2 Armorsmith (the most decks can’t deal with it) and turn 3 Fierce Monkey – this will give you at least two armor. Use your Cruel Taskmaster to trade minios. Don’t youse it to buff your minions without a reason! If you can’t play it in the early game, save it until the lategame to trigger an Execute.
You can play your Shield Block if you can’t play any other cards.

Midgame

You are playing a Control Warrior so what do you have to do? Control for sure. Hiding a Armorsmith behind a Sludge Belcher is very nice and Sylvanas Windrunner will buy time and your enemy have to play a removal. Don’t play it if your enemy can kill her and his whole board. Forcing a removal spell with Sylvanas Windrunner is not a crime. You have enough damage.
Baron Geddon is nice for clearing the board and forcing a Big Game Hunter and a brawl can save you if the enemy has to much minions.
Shieldmaidens gives you some more survivability.

Lategame

Now it’s your time. In most cases you have under ten live but your enemy has no longer a board and cards on his hand, his removals are away. Now you can play Dr. Boom , Alexstrasza and Ragnaros the Firelord to finish your enemy and see him cry.

More Card Tips

  • Don’t be afraid to use Alexstrasza on your own hero if you are under 15 live. Espacily vs a Face Hunter this can save the game.
  • Save your Executes for realy Big Minions
  • Play your Acolyte of Pain when your Death's Bites Deathrattle triggers or your enemy has just small minions to get most value of it.

    No shieldslam ? No Justicar ? Wtf?

    Not using Justicar is just nonsensical. Period.

    I have to agree with your statement about shield slam; I faced a LOT of aggro and it generally was only good for removing a small minion after I used hero power.

    Have you tried removing the armorsmiths for other cards? I found that putting in the ever simple Zombie Chow gets more utility out of board control.

    Also… -1 Shieldmaiden +1 Justicar Trueheart (if you have her)

      I didn’t try Zombie chow, but i think it does one or two removals and no armor. Armorsmith will do this two AND gives you Armor. Did you try?

      I don’t have Justicar, but if you own her, this is a realy good exchange.

        Yes Armorsmith gives armor but sometimes it is better to have a minion with 2 attack for trades. It helps to get rid of the many 2/2 & 3/2 minions out there.

        My latest version removed both Shieldmaiden for Justicer & Emp TH however I am more of a fan of using aggro to climb on ladder since the season just restarted.

        Maybe as the month goes on I’ll have some more feedback.
