Can't wait to try this out. In my opinion it's the best quest reward in the new expansion. My only worry is how consistent the molten giant/ice block combo will be and if it's viable. Archmage as well as rhonin might have some synergy with the quest as well. After some testing, might add some more minions for some board presence. Just my opinion.
Personally i would cut moltens and only play arcane giants in combination with alextrasza next turn, because moltens and secrets in theory still allow for counterplay while with only arcane giants you wont have that problem and need one less card for the combo.

I discussed a little about that with a friend while i was crafting the deck, but we can´t find a good replacement for the moltens, alexstraza looks like a pretty good idea. Thanks you man.
I have no idea if this is gonna be a strong archetype, but I know it's gonna be crazy fun to figure it out.
I made mine a "Miracle" version given all the reduced cost mechanics in the new cards. My alternate to Arcane Giant finishers is the Archmage Antonidas potentially-infinite fireball combo. (I suspect most times you wont actually save both apprentices to make it truly infinite, but you can still probably stretch it a lot!)
(The deckbuilder is counting Molten Reflection as a minion)
What do you guys think about this deck?
Is the quest mage gonna be better than the elemental mage?
It has to be snakes.

Job's done!
I cut of both of the Molten Giant and Flamestrike, to put Alexstrasza, Archmage Antonidas and a second Burgly Bully into the deck.
