Mulligans

General Mulligans

Some earlier stuff you can keep against most things. 

Aggro Mulligans

With the Coin it's much easier. You can keep Tortollan if you have something lower mana cost. You could also keep Holy Nova or Excavated Evil with the Coin. Of course, always keep Reno against aggro. 

Control Mulligans

Against other control decks you can be pretty greedy, but also feel free to keep anything you would otherwise keep for aggro. You can do things like Potion of Madness other priests' Crystalline Oracles for value. It's also much better to play your Crab turn 2 than to top deck it late game when you need something good. 

Recently I noticed that Mirage Caller and Blood of the Ancient One could be used with Emperor Thaurissan to actually get out The Ancient One. I tried it for fun ’cause I was already in deep dumpster legend and it turns out it actually isn’t that bad. 

Since you only need one of each I built a N'Zoth, The Corruptor/Reno Jackson deck around it. With multiple win conditions  you have a pretty good chance of out-valuing other control decks, and with Reno and all the AOE priest has you have hope of surviving aggro (pirates). 

Just be careful when you combo The Ancient One. Sylvanas Windrunner is heavily played and most decks have ways of killing their own copy to steal it before you can stop them.
