Paladin Deck Collection #2 - Divine Odd Paladin

Hail friends!

I am a paladin main f2player since Witchwood, and I mean by that is I only have paladin cards. While I have all paladin cards in standard, I lack a few of them in Wild, but not many and only the less importan ones.

So here's the tea: I have decided to become a duoclass main. Since Demon Hunter doesn't have any old cards in Wild, it would be easy for me to make all Demon Hunter's cards while keeping up with the Paladin's ones. The problem is I don't have enough deck spaces to have both Paladin's and DH's decks. Since today, I will periodically start putting the decks I create here on Out of Cards (btw I love this platform and all the people who work on it, keep it up!).

Divine Odd Paladin: So many wonderful.....bubbles?!

The second deck I want y'all to take a look at is something I completely created on my own. I know, it is listed as ranked and not as a "just for fun" deck so y'all want something strong, not just a meme. In my quest to find a variant of Odd Paladin which could be something more than just a mindless SMORc strategy, I decided to merge the Divine Shield archetype and the good ol' Baku the Mooneater and, after many experimentations, this became the best version I could come up with. It may seem just a bad version of normal Odd Paladin, but I can ensure you that there's more here than it may look at first glance: the interactions with the Divine Shields really give Odd Paladin a fun and highroll potential that it didn't have beforehand.

Blood Knight is such an incredible card when you manage to pull off the combo: while you may use it with Righteousness as an 8 mana 15/15, sometimes it is even easier to do so in the early turns thanks to Steward of Darkshire. The best part is that often times the enemy doesn't even answer to your Divine Shields because, in his eyes, removing more damage is easier by removing the minions without Divine Shield: it's just great winning games throwing that huuuuuuuuuge Blood Knight.

All in all, this deck is competitevely viable, but not enough to reach the higher ranks. Don't expect to have a much higher winrate than the one you would have with a normal odd Paladin, but at the end of the day I enjoyed this deck a lot and I hope y'all will as well :)
