     1.intro

Hey everyone! I'm Acidz, a multiple legend player from Belgium. I’ve been 6th in a major tournament, 2 top 100 finishes in the last months, selected for the Hearthstone Global Games and I grind my way to top 100 easily.

Today I’m just sharing the deck I got legend with. It’s not an entirely new deck, but it’s a variant that I think works the best and gets very good results on ladder. So far I got top 300 Legend with it, but haven’t had enough time to push it any further.

     3.Mulligan Guide

Always Keep: [Mana Wyrm], [Arcanologist], [Sorcerer's Apprentice]

Keeps w/ the above/secret: [Kirin Tor Mage], [Kabal Lackey], [Frostbolt], [Babbling Book]

     4.Strategy

The strategy with this deck is straightforward. You gain card advantage by playing arcanologist or one of the best draw cards in the game (arcane intellect). The next step is making alot of tempo with a free secret. After this point you can create allot of value by playing Medivh’s Valet and Kabal Crystal Runner. You finish the game with either burn or Yogg.

Another strategy is just dropping mana wyrm on turn 1 and going very aggressive. Most of the time it’s a combination of both strategies.

Tip 1: Try holding on to Counterspell and play it after your opponent has played the coin.

Tip 2: Don’t play mirror entity too soon (before turn 3) unless if it can give you Medivh’s valet activation or a good curve. Turn 1 lackey into Mirror entity is not that good.

Tip 3: Firelands portal can give you an random charger or taunt, so play to your outs if you have to.

Tip 4: Try to play as much other stuff before playing Cabalist’s Tome. (but don’t start randomly trowing all your burst at the face when your opponent has healing :p )

     5.Stats and Matchups

Good matchups:

As you can see in my stats (I also got simmular stats from friends). The deck performs the best versus mage, warrior and druid. Mage and druid usually gain control of the board trough spells and AOE’s , but counterspell  makes it pretty annoying.  And you ussually get pretty good mirror entity’s vs warrior and druid.

Even matchups:

paladin and rogue: It really depends on the archetype they are playing. Cavern rogue is real annoying archetype to play against with this deck. Control paladin has just too much healing sometimes.

Bad matchups:

Shaman is a fantastic counter. It has healing, small tokens for Mirror Entity and enough board clears that you can’t stop them all.

Conclusion:

Most of the Matchups are the same as the old tempo mage. If you have a bad matchup just trow all your burn at the face and hope for a good Yogg. (Kappa) This strategy works vs rogue and some midrange paladins that don’t run much heal.

If you’d like to see me play this deck live with commentary, I cordially invite you to check my stream where I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have about it. I will also play a variety of other decks, but I will always answer questions about secret mage. https://www.twitch.tv/acidzhs

This is the video where I hit Legend on. The stats aren't right on stream, cuz My decktracker confuses the secret mage with the Gunther Mage.
