Great read.
I noticed in Game 2 Turn 6 for Artosis he played Truesilver Champion to take out the Azure Drake and taking 2 damage and sacrificing 3 charges of his Light's Justice in the process. I think the better play there would have to have sacced the 1/1 into the Azure Drake and play Defender of Argus to buff the 3/3 Argent protector to 4/4 and the 2/2 with Divine Shield to 3/3 and attack into the Azure Drake to kill it only losing the shield.
He would've been left with 4/4 4/4 and 3/3 minions on Trump's Turn 6 which is a lot more pressure (basically forcing a Cone of Cold or Blizzard, but with the health to take it, and one turn away from a Flamestrike. All while not losing 2 life in the process and using up another charge on the Light's Justice and saving the Truesilver Champion for later.
It just seems like the more optimal play there.

I forget the exact situation, but from what you say it sounds to me like you're right. Well spotted
