Play normally until you get a good board, then hero power every turn. You can still hero power if it's the best play that turn(example:5gold and you don't have a value start that allows you to double buy) but don't go out of your way to press it every turn. You should press it every turn if you build around Dragons with Whelp Smuggler however since you'd like to maximize health in that case. Works amazingly with Drakkari, it doubles your hero power and it’s scaling per turn!

Oftentimes playing the game without focusing on the Heropower is the best. [[Drakari Enchanter]] has great Synergy and can make the HP worthwhile
