Template:Dread Corsair strategy
Dread Corsair's effect works well in any deck that has a lot of weapons. He is particularly good for a rogue deck, as the rogue's hero power Dagger Mastery can keep the rogue almost constantly armed. However, note that since the basic cost of the card is too high for its value, you will need a weapon in order to make this card cost-efficient. With no weapon, this is an expensive minion; with a 1 Attack weapon such as Wicked Knife, this card is reasonably priced, effectively a Pirate Ironfur Grizzly; while with 2 Attack or more, it becomes a very cheap card. Aside from its Pirate synergy, this card is therefore only preferable over Ironfur Grizzly with a weapon with at least 2 Attack.
Aside from its ability, Dread Corsair's Pirate type allows it to benefit from Pirate-synergy cards like Southsea Captain and Captain's Parrot.
