Oh lovely, an OTK has been discovered that only requires 8 mana and 7 cards. Sounds like a lot, but an OTK is an OTK and the fact it's before 10 mana and needs 0 setup (other than tons of draw) is a big deal.
r/hearthstone - Explanation of Trump's Test Subject OTK (more or less the gist of it)
If you can't decipher the image --- All of that happens in the same turn, eventually creating a 32/1 charging boar (5x Divines on Boar). Topsy kills Test Subject due to the 0 Atk.
8 mana due to the cost reductions from Radiants
It's also only 7 cards because you need only 1 Divine Spirit to start the combo.
If you think Taunts will work, remember they can add in Mass Dispell, which will be discounted / possibly free.
If Armor gain is an issue, I assume you can do 1 more rotation to add more Divine Spirits to hand, right now the combo for 32 dmg is 7 cards in hand, you could also put down Boar ahead of time and Mass Dispell ahead of time (if its discounted), and potentially get up to 9 Divine Spirits = 512/1 Boar.
(Edit: 1 correction is I assumed Vivid could be "thrown away" by casting on a minion even if board is full, but sounds like you can't, which means 5 divines might be maximum since Vivids will start clogging hand.. but maybe there's a workaround... someone suggested adding an unholy smite for some infinite 2dmg pings and you can kill off some minions for board space maybe, idk)
If necessary you can deal 512 damage and have it split across two 256/1 bodies to beat a taunt, but it requires 9 cards so not sure how viable that actually is. With a hand of 2x Radiant, Topsy, 2x DS, Boar, Test Subject, 2x Vivid:
You cast two Radiants and Test Subject, then cast the first Vivid on Radiant for -3 cost, then cast the second on Test Subject after casting Divine Spirits. That gives you 2 Test Subjects with 2x DS and 1x Vivid under them, Topsy the first one to get those four cards back, then Vivid the second to get two Test Subject with 2x DS, 2x Vivid under them. Your hand is now just Boar and Topsy. Topsy a Test Subject, and your hand becomes Boar, Topsy, 2x DS, 2x Vivid. Cast 2x DS and Vivid on the other Test Subject to get two Test Subjects with 4x DS and 3x Vivid under them. Topsy the first one to get a hand of Boar, Topsy, 4x DS, 3x Vivid. Cast Boar, dump 4x DS on it, waste two Vivids on it to free up space in your hand, then Topsy your second Test Subject. That returns 4x DS, 3x Vivid, Topsy. Cast four more DS on any Boar, Topsy it, then Vivid it for two 256/1s to attack with.
