Introduction

Laaadies and Gentlemen! Today I’m bringing you guys one of our newest home-brews: The Mech Paladin!

Wait… What?

Yap, Mech Paladin! After some thinking, I came to some conclusions about Paladin that I am going to share with y’all in this Deck Tech.

Origins

I have been developing a pretty fun Midrange Paladin deck for quite a while now, and I decided it is time to share the list.

I always saw the Paladin Midrange deck as very Mech-oriented. Paladin already runs tons of Mechs: shielded-minibot, piloted-shredder and piloted-sky-golem. After a brief chat with some friends, we came to the conclusion that adding a couple mechwarpers and cogmasters to the deck was an obvious idea, so I went for it and developed the deck from there.

In the end, the deck ended up playing almost exactly like Midrange Paladin, but traded consistency for explosive potential.

Overall, I felt safer playing the deck as it brought me from rank 800+ Legend to top 100 within a few games. The most powerful weapon of this deck is its surprise factor.  People usually play around it as if it was an aggro deck, then have no responses for your late game threats.

Oh, did I forget to say how fun it is? I got BM’ed every single match on my grind, as people thought they were playing against aggro. They wiped the board, only to get smashed down by the late game and mid-range power of the standard Midrange Paladin.
