This is an adaptation of the Witchwood Elemental Mage. The deck has three avenues to victory:
First, you can get off to a quick start with Book of Specters into Mountain Giant on turn three or four. Or otherwise, if you manage to get ahead on board in the early game, compund the issue with elemental synergy (damage and draw effects, mostly).
Secondly, you can win the long game with Frost Lich Jaina. As opposed to Big Spell Mage, which relies heavily on the opponent playing minions for her to turn into Water Elementals, this deck can churn out life stealing elementals proactively after turning into DK.
Thirdly, I've put in a package built around Luna's Pocket Galaxy, with Grand Archivist for potential high roll (getting draw three off the Archivist is no disaster, either), and a few high cost minions to take advantage of the effect. The thought is not to build the deck too reliant on this effect though, and so it is not too heavy with mega minions.
Meteorologist and Astromancer might be terrible. But if they're ever not terrible, it's probably in a deck like this. So let's find out!
Anyways, thoughts and feedback greatly appreciated. Will be testing and adapting this sometime just after the expansion drops, seeing if I can make it work.
hello there... any replacement for 1 Astromancer and maybe (unless I cannot craft it) Luna's Pocket ?? Thanks
thank you bro!!!!
this deck is insane
why you play Archmage Arugal?
Because I have it lol. Not really necessary for this deck though.
Man this deck is super fun thanks abunch! Also well done on coming up with the idea before the expansion even launched lol. I don't have the mind for that type of stuff. I don't have Pyros so I just swapped in another Doomsayer but I'm toying with some other ideas that have already been mentioned in the comments. I've only played a few games so far but I'm doing pretty well at rank 9 and again it's super fun which is what matters to me. Thanks again : )
Edit: Just a side note I pre ordered the $80 bundle and got Stargazer Luna as my free golden legendary and with my gold I had been saving and my pre order packs I opened Luna's Pocket Galaxy and honestly wasn't that happy about it but this deck gave them purpose lol.
This deck is trash, dont be fooled by the "fun" of it, because most of the times you wont even be able to pull it off and that sucks just like this deck. Currently 1-8, everything destroys me before I am even able to play Luna, nothing to def against it, it just sucks. Dont waste your dust on this. Build it only if you have the cards
I didn't have a second Astromancer so I put in Archmage Arugal. May swap him out if he doesn't work out. So far my hand has been packed and Meteorologist is hitting like a truck. I've pulled off the Book of Specters into turn 3 Mountain Giant and also was able to get off Luna's Pocket Galaxy and later going ham with Stargazer Luna draws.
This is the most fun deck I've played so far. Thanks! :)
First let me say this is a really fun deck. When it works it really works.
That being said, this deck is already too slow for the ever fast changing meta of today. It looked like on Tuesday people tried out the control decks just so the games would be longer to try out all the new cards. Seems like today people are making face decks so they can start winning again. This deck is really slow against face. Warrior has armor to help with their control decks but this deck has very little to stop the minions.
You have to admit this deck is very top heavy and when you're drawing all your 6+ mana minions and they are dropping multiple minions a turn every turn, you just can't keep up unless you get a god starting hand like Book of Specters and two Mountain Giants.
This is a crazy fun deck. Thanks so much for sharing. Having a lot of fun and awesome varying win conditions.
Is there any other card to replace for Alexstrasza ?
While Alexstrasza is a great card, esp in this deck, I've had success using Sindragosa instead in all slower mage decks for the past few months. It synergises amazingly with Frost Lich Jaina, generates value, and has a soft-taunt against more controly decks that want to prevent you getting a second water ele ping.
Been playing around. Swapped both Bonfire Elemental for Servant of Kalimos. The reasoning is that I kept drawing Luna's Pocket Galaxy and Servant adds value and flexibility to the deck. I had Archmage Arugal to synergize with the draw but I found myself over stuffing my hand.
I added blizzard instead of a glacial shard and just won a game with it against spider rogue.
Really good deck, been playing around with it alot! trying to see if I can find space for Archmage Arugal and/or a second Doomsayer, maybe a second Grand Archivist to turbo out Luna's Pocket Galaxy faster or to give you more minions that cost (1) if you have already played it.
really nice one. good job!
However, deck completely sucks vs zoo no matter how many anti-aggro tools you run. I've got an idea to replace Book of Specters with Research Project. This will allow us to run Nova, Flamestrike, Blizzard, etc. What do you think?
Strong deck!
I always wanted to try an elemental mage deck, and yours seems solid enough.
But can you recommend replacements for Pyros and The Lich King ?
HIGHLY recommend fitting in mechathun some where as the deck has lots of draw potential and legendary spell enabling you to empty your hand and deck quite fast.
Maybe take out 2 Meteorologist and put in 2 Twilight Drake? I also think taking out a Blazecaller and adding an Astromancer might be good.
