This will be mainly focused on aggro decks, lets say RabbleRed for now.
How do you prioritize your 1 drops? Is Foundry STreet always the turn 1 play? Is there a time where you don't play it first? What if your hand does not have FSD, let's say Firedrinker Loyalist Cackler, is there a preference here? I'm guessing maybe the firedrinker if you think they will play Caraytid t2? Or would you rather just get your other
creatures in play?
Using the foundry street denizen again, what is a bad attack in the early turns? Lets say I can attack for 2-3 with the FSD on turn 2 but they have a 1 drop, do you always attack? I know if it's a mana dork they might not want to block and lose their dude, but do you always attack? If they block with their guy and you trade, is it always better than not attacking?
In the case of Hall of Triumph, do you want it in play as soon as possible or are you fine waiting a couple turns and just slamming the Rabblemaster? What kind of matchups dictate the order you play them?
Against control how much are you prepared to commit to the board versus the idea of being wrathed? Does it depend on how much power you have and how much you can hit them for before they hit 4 mana? If your'e able to offload your hand turn 2 or 3, would you prefer not to play it all and sacrifice the early damage just to hold back for a possible wrath?
Does being on the play affect how you start your turn 1, should
you be playing differently? Assuming you are the beatdown?
On the note of beatdown vs control, if you know you are against GW or even rabblered, do you still try to be the beatdown game 1 since our maindeck removal isn't hugely available? I'm guessing we try to be the control post board? I read the article earlier by Flores that someone posted here, so I'm guessing with access to Searing Bloods and other burn to bring in we become the control, does this mean we sacrifice playing our little red men in favour of holding up for the burn?
That's all I can think of right now but it's a few scenarios I have found myself in recently and I always second guess myself so I figured I would ask here on how you would handle these situations.
Sorry if it's pretty "nooby" stuff but sometimes it's the basics that can catch people out, obviously myself included in this, and I'd just like a basic guideline that I can implement into my plays.
Thanks
