Nope. Mostly Mech Mage and Control Warrior. Other decks when I have quests for them
I probably have all the cards for a patron deck, but it sounds dull to play.

Lately I've really loved playing against hunters. Often they set themselves up for a tidy trap play. Like get all my minions to 2 health and leave the bow with 1 charge. Then I don't trigger the trap, and they have no idea what to do next. Either they do nothing and I flood the board with threats, or they are forced to drop minions that I can trade my "dead" minions into. It feels good.

I got bluffed into not attacking a hunter for two turns because he went out of his way to clear all minions except one representing Freezing Trap. Turned out later it was snakes.

anyone seen the new Brawl? ... We're All Shedders could be an alternate title for it ... all minions you play gain a Deathrattle "Summon minion costing 2 less", making stuff such as Undertaker, Li'l Exorsist and Scarlet Purifier surprisingly competent

I'm liking the new brawl. Lil' Exorcist is indeed excellent. Undertaker... not so much. At 2 health, it dies to everything, and it doesn't get Deathrattle itself, because there are no minions that cost less than 0. Scarlet Purifier is also questionable - it seems like a cheaper Consecration with a 4/3 body attached, but it targets the wrong things: enemy deathrattle minions but not the minions they spawn, and your OWN minions, including itself! If any card is this brawl's MVP, it's Sea Giant: often playable on the cheap, spawns a random 8-drop on death. Baron Rivendare is quite good, too. Overall, zoo/token decks seem best, with plenty of silence and ideally a Savage Roar/Bloodlust win condition. I'm mucking about with Mech Hunter at the moment. No one expects the Metaltooth Leaper!

I think this new brawl is, quietly, my favorite.
I am using this deck right now:

Y'know I played 2 games of this brawl and I was quickly bored with it since it wasn't interesting enough to me. At the same time I knew Seven would love it...
edit!
To elaborate a little, I find the brawls that involve building a deck to quickly end up with people just copying what the best streamers are playing and that's just the same as ranked play so it irks me and gets tedious. However its possible there's no clear classes that are the best this week (although I suspect Druid and Priest are strongest) so maybe I'll give it a few more games.
Its strange, I like the randomness of Webspinner or Portal brawls but dislike the luck in the construct your own deck brawls.

Back to constructed:
I made a stupid druid control deck for fun. To my surprise, it's mostly winning. Granted I'm still not at high ranks.
Mulligan for Wild Growth, Doomsayer, and (no more than 1) Nourish. Maybe Wrath if there is a particular card you are afraid of, like Whirling Zap-o-matic. Maybe Molten Giant against hunter.
Play Doomsayer liberally: there aren't any frost novas in the deck.
Usually the first Nourish is for mana. The mana is the point of the card.
Remember you can attack minions to make your molten giants cheaper. Sometimes you can even tree of life back up on the same turn!
