New Player, Warrior Solo deck

[Awnetu]

Hello all, I've recently decided to try to get into the World of Warcraft TCG after having played several different card games and came up with a warrior deck.

The Main strategy at this point in time is to pull out the Vengeful Glad Bonecracker and fuel it with resources/counters to help it quickly demolish my opponent via Anger Management, Peter Hottelet, Galway Steamwhistle, Corki's Ransom, and Uther's Girdle.

Without Further ado,

Format: Classic

Hero:
Peter Hottelet

Abilities: 22
Anger Management x 4
Keys to the Armory x 4
Mortal Strike x 4
Pummel x 4
Smash x 2
Juggernaut x 4

Galway Steamwhistle x 2
Steelsmith Joseph Carroll x 2

Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros x 2

Quests: 14
Zapped Giants x 4
Corki's Ransom x 4
Sunken Treasure x 2
The Cipher of Damnation x 4

Thanks in advance!

One of my friends threw out some comments when I linked on facebook, but couldn't get answers to the questions I asked him.

Cut anger management, resource acceleration does nothing for you.
With Keys to the Armory, you can cut down each of your armor/equipment to 1-2 each, if it's for classic you could also throw in Amani mask, which helps a lot.

Scimitar can be cut, your allies + ferocity doesn't give you much, it'd be better to just add in a better weapon.

Chipper sucks, cut him for scrapper/pappy. Wreck is also really hard to use, since it interrupts, I recommend just regular equipment destruction.

My questions where:

I'm not sure I understand, when he say Resource Acceleration does nothing, does he mean that the boosts I was hoping to get to Power up Bracers, Bonecracker, and Steelsmith, aren't really worth it?

Scimitar was there also because it gave me a cheaper weapon I could play if I was losing weapons to equipment destruction, the ferocity was icing on the cake, what would you recommend instead?

The most important question
Since Chipper is a 2 cost ability/ally destruction, and the alternatives mentioned are a 5 cost equip break(though a repeating one) and a 7 cost to do the same thing (though also repeating) How do you value the resources in this game? Also, is the bringer of doom not run anymore?

i don't see the point in sirroco an invunerable weopons nice but i think barnacle-coated greataxe in its place because it gets really boosted by green forest
i'm not too sure on the strong hold guantlets maybe run 2 and put in 2 hand of ragnoroses there a nice big weopon to take advantage of your recource excel

Hmmm what are your thoughts on the Reaper of Dark Souls?

[shadowwarl]

I like reaper of dark souls...

As far as solo warrior I am looking at the newist alliance warrior that gives duel weld on the flip...

FRONT: 3 -> Flip Grayson
BACK: Dual Wield (You can control a second one-handed Melee weapon instead of an Off-Hand equipment. You can strike with a second Melee weapon during the same combat.)

I was looking at him too, but with Anger Management and Mortal strike being personal favorites, couldn't run him this time around =(.


On second thought... new rules mean he technically is not specced at all... so I could run him.

Barnacle-coated greataxe can be destroyed easily. The scimitar can keep coming back as long as it isn't removed from the game or shuffled back into your deck. But it depends on what the other players near you have. If they have a lot of equipment removal, go for scimitar, it will take longer to kill the opponent however. But if they don't, free the beast of an axe and play whack-a-mole with their faces haha

[shadowwarl]

another weapon to consider since it looks like you are going classic is:
does triple duty as a weapon, equipment removal, and ability removal.

Couple of quests for consideration: Bane of the Illidari, A Final Blow, and Forces of Jaedenar all 3 are 1-2 cost and draw you a card for completing
Whirlwind Weapon is a 5 cost quest that could work as a mid game AOE Board clearer because of some of the weapons you are running
