This deck was built in old SF version. Many cards in this deck have been nerfed/changed.
Hello!
I'm sharing a deck that achieved 96.6% win rate at 280-300 (30 games 29 win 1 loss, but it was when Zal could use Thoughtripper's Cutlass).
This deck works quite differently from DP Zaladar, so hopefully, by publishing this, people get to know how SF Zaladar can be played.

This deck is rush build. I excluded tech cards so that you have higher consistency for beatdown.
You can modify the deck a bit after you understand how it works!
Basically, this deck only includes powerful cards. Then how can it be weak?
Analysing this deck should help you understand why certain cards are stronger in this game. Also you will know which cards to purchase from Merchant if you haven't got 4 copies of all cards.
The deck is quite easy to master. Strongly recommended for new players.
Type: Aggressive beatdown
Resource: 6 or 7~9
Speed: Fast (Rush)
Harbinger of the Lost
Discard & potentially 2/4 ally. In fact it almost always becomes 2/4 (I don't have the stats for this but I rarely see him being 1/3). Karash is very strong 2cc ally, but Harbringer is slightly better than Karash against BB, RD Baduruu and Amber. Discarding effect is also useful to trigger Dagger of Fate. Considering these, I chose Harbringer over Karash.
Brimestone Devourer
He is an amazing ally. 0cc 3 damage ability card when discarded. He can be played as 2/4 if necessary, and counted as an ally in the graveyard for Soul Reaper. Great versatility in this deck. You should always play games as if BD is on top of your deck. This should avoid wasting damages from BD.
Rampant Krygon
Another amazing ally. This ally, originally designed by a SE player, has changed the meta drastically. He is more of t4 ally than t3 drop, and because of him, Garg and other 5 health ally are not as resilient as before, making DoF better than 3cc ally on t3. Extremely versatile and CB/Zail's Hymn proof. Very strong card.
Falseblood Cultist
He is like shadow Tainted Oracle if you like. Good ally to play when you are going into mid game. Its discarding ability synergizes with DoF and BD in this deck.
MC
Font
Soul Reaper
Cards with discard effect makes SR more reliable.
Shriek of Revulsion
≥Sever Ties. Mainly for Enrage and Portal
Antimatter
Main draw engine + Discard engine. t5 cast AM and draw, t6 AM draw + 3cc etc.
Dagger of Fate
This card is so underrated. It can be 3cc 9 damage with discard effect. If played correctly, its cost and damage output ratio is extremely good. And even if you cannot trigger DoF, it still guarantees 3 damage for 3cc with versatile weapon use. This card can totally replace 3cc allies as it can be played on t3 and sometimes does better than any other 3cc allies. Also it's high damage output allows Zal to play like a semi solo hero if needed, thereby making ally control cards in opponent hand useless. It adds another layer to the win condition, which is quite advantageous in PvP as opponent will be forced to make difficult decisions. The key to use this card is not to attack too much with it when you cannot swing it for 3 damage.
Living Armor
I hear LA is OP, but people only include 2 copies of LA. WHY!? Yes, LA's power level is way above than other 6cc cards. Then why don't you include 4 LA to get the full out of it?? If the card is powerful, then have 4 of it, regardless of its cost. This is my SE philosophy. I often finish games with Zal Blast 3pts+DoF 3pts+LA attack 4pts+BD discard 3pts=13 damage.
