Dragon Paladin Deck

Dragon Paladin Deck Mulligan Guide

Dragon Paladin is a Midrange deck that focuses on Dragon synergies. In your mulligan, you should look for a solid curve of minions to secure control of the board and powerful Dragon-synergy cards that empower the deck.

• General Mulligan (keep regardless of what your opponent is playing) — Argent Squire, Imprisoned Sungill, Tasty Flyfish, Murgur Murgurgle.
• Mulligan against Aggro (also keep if you think you are playing against an aggressive deck) — Truesilver Champion, Scalerider.
• Mulligan against Control (also keep if you think you are playing against a slow deck) — Dragon Speaker.

Dragon Paladin Deck Strategy

Dragon Paladin is a fairly standard Midrange deck that should aim to play 1 card each turn on curve and the biggest decision you will have each turn will be which card to play. The choice you make will come down to the state of the game and your hand. For example, with Dragon Speaker in hand, you should prioritise playing non-Dragon cards until it is played. Similarly, you should reserve cards like Scalerider and Scalelord for turns they will remove a minion. As a general rule, you should take value trades when available, but focus on attacking your opponent directly when they are not so as to use the natural Midrange tempo to beat down your opponent.

Against Aggro, you should put more emphasis on controlling the board and make full use of Consecration when you can. As the deck only has a few tools to deal with wide boards, you should take value trades where possible to ensure you do not get overrun by faster decks.

Against Control, you should not have to adjust too much. The natural Midrange style of playing one medium-sized minion per turn is particularly difficult for Control decks to deal with. However, you should be careful not to overextend into board clears as 3 minions is usually enough to pressure your opponent. In case the game does go longer, you should prioritise high-cost Dragons from your Bronze Explorer Discoveries. Similarly, you should also ensure that you are copying as many minions as possible when you opt to use Barista Lynchen.
