Immortal Undatakah Paladin

Okay!  This is something I've been thinking of for a little while.  I was hoping for more buff cards for Paladin this expansion to make the Immortal Prelate minions more valuable.  But it seems they are going in a Dragon Paladin direction (which is also exciting)!!!

I've been running a version of this in Standard now, but isn't strong enough with the Mammoth sets in play still to climb to Legend.  Maybe it'll work during the Year of the Dragon, but I definitely will need to edit and optimize post RoS launch.

Idea is probably pretty obvious: Get at least one Prelate to die, as well as one or two Mechano-Egg prior to playing Da Undatakah.  It creates an infinite loop of Undatakahs that also spawn one or more 8/8 mechs when it dies.  You can also use Faceless Manipulator to copy Undatakah once it has been buffed.

You also have a chance to surprise your opponent with a big swing of tempo if they don't kill, silence, or transform an egg before dropping a big minion on board.  Let's say the only minion on the entire board is Mechano-Egg and they put down a big minion with 10 health.  You can magnetic Bronze Gatekeeper onto the egg, then Crazed Alchemist the egg, making it 10/1 for a clear of the opponent's minion, and generating an 8/8 for your own board.  Alchemist can also be used as a deathrattle trigger on the 0/5 Egg right away.  The new twinspell Lightforged Blessing can be used in a pinch for some healing, or cast on Prelates and Undatakah with the Prelate deathrattle, giving you more options for survivability in the long run as those minions keep coming back.

I'm admittedly not the best deck builder so I'm sure the list currently has some major flaws that I may not notice until I start playing the deck.  I included Kangor's Endless Army and the new legendary Nozari to try and out value and outlast the opponent in the late game.  However, I'm worried the current list will need more early/mid game, or at least more ways to consistently draw the early/mid game prior to reaching the later stages.  But I personally plan on giving this archetype a shot once the expansion is out, given I get the cards I need from RoS to do so.
