General Strategy:

This is a very aggressive deck that aims to quickly fill the board with pirates and close out games as quickly as possible. To do so, you have to maximize every point of damage in your hand. This might mean to not play a Southsea Deckhand on 1 and instead save it for the guaranteed charge damage, for example. Or to wait and play Sharkfin Fan until you have a weapon equipped for the guaranteed extra pirate. Always prioritize minion damage/board pressure over spell/weapon damage (unless playing against Quest Priest/Control Warrior, then you don't want to overextend). The sooner  you can get your minions on board means the sooner you can start doing damage with them, while damage from Cold Blood, Eviscerate, Hooked Scimitar is always guaranteed damage eventually. Only trade to protect your higher attack minions, otherwise go face (unless you're against other board dependent decks like Token Druid or Zoolock).

*Tip* I tend to prefer an EVIL Miscreant over developing 1-3 smaller pirates on turns 2-4 because of the versatility that the Lackeys provide in establishing tempo. Unless you have a big swing turn of course with Hooked Scimitar/Dread Corsair/Bloodsail Raider or many pirates + Bloodsail Howler.

 

Mulligan:

Always Keep - Backstab, Bloodsail Flybooter, Southsea Deckhand, Parachute Brigand, Sharkfin Fan, Bloodsail Raider, Skyvateer

Sometimes Keep - EVIL Miscreant (on the coin), Hooked Scimitar (on the coin), Dread Corsair (if you have Hooked Scimitar and on the coin), Bloodsail Howler (if you have Bloodsail Flybooter)
