Budget Deck: Shadow Paladin (Raging)

You Mad?

With Divine Dragon Caper we got Reprints. And among those reprints was Raging Form Dragon. Who is now $3-4.

Yep. Today's post is Ragings. I can finally call Raging a budget deck.

Raging Form is a really powerful deck,  one of the meta Shadow Paladin decks actually (although they are getting beaten out by Diablo at the moment). They're really powerful and really fun. He even got some support in the last booster set.

Before we start, I should talk about Rapt. A bunch of people were disappointed with it. A bunch. And it wasn't hard to see why, with a huge cost of Retire 2 and Discard 2 Abyss Dragon Grade 3s. But! I found that it was actually really easy to get three or even four attacks with Rapt given the right build.  And three to four vanguard attacks usually ends games, if I remember correctly. Rapt is a solid card.  And he's $6-7. Cheap. Effective. Deadly. Perfect

Budget Deck: Shadow Paladin (Revengers)

Shadow Paladins is another meta clan that's expensive, with the same logic as Narukami. It's not Shadow Paladins that are expensive (Althought it's the clan that gets the most broken support) it's the main build of Shadow Paladins that are expensive. It's Phantom Blaster Abyss that's expensive, being about $40 or so. But hey, even if Abyss is expensive as hell and unfit for a budget deck, it doesn't mean that Revengers doesn't have a budget deck. In fact, thanks to Abyss everything aside from Abyss is cheap.

Grade 3 

What do you mean I'm a girl?

So firstly, this is the cornerstone of our Shadow Paladin build. It's... just amazing. Don't underestimate a consistent 30k 2 crit attack. I personally love everything about this card. And he's so underused and underestimated. It makes him cheap as hell. It's not even $1! I've never seen a more budget friendly key card in my life.

Although, the mate of this card is a bit more expensive than the Leader (Due to the fact that this can be used with Abyss) so I'd run 1-2 of the mate. It's more than enough. Trust me, I had a Revenger deck focused on this guy and it was amazing.
