It's just too slow. That's all there is. Just too damn slow.

Slow and steady wins the race to Legend! Thanks for the comment :)

How are you gonna win anything when you're dead by turn 4?

I would encourage you to play more and work on your early game play, if a 67% win percentage deck can't advance you on the ladder, than you are most likely making some mistakes in the early game that are contributing to you losing by turn 4.  Keep at it I'm sure eventually you will figure it out and start winning some games, and thanks again for the comments.

I tried this deck again after your reply, and I am honestly wondering; have you actually tried this deck in today's wild? I'm sure it was good back when you posted it in '20, but wild nowadays is able to fill the entire board by turn 3-4 and this deck doesn't even have card draw until late game. No informant, just one ancient mysteries, and two fireballs(!) I mean, are you even sober?

Oh I forgot. You're defending your secret deck which doesn't even include the most important SECRET.

I thought this video might help you out. It discusses some of the basic fundamentals for Hearthstone, and if it is so difficult and challenging for you to survive in the early game, you may want to consider cutting Occult Conjurer for an additional Flame Ward, trading against your opponents minions in early turns also helps instead of going Face every turn (most players figure that out soon after they start playing the game but I realize some players are slower than others to learn from their mistakes). Also try to mulligan for Arcane Flakmage, and Kabal Lackey as openers this will help you deal with early aggression from your opponents. The deck has Ancient Mysteries, Rigged Faire Game, and double Mad Scientist for card draw all before turn 4, not to mention Sayge, Seer of Darkmoon and Aluneth as refill options. This deck is a deckbuilding artistic Masterpiece! However, if you are use to only playing hyper Aggro decks it may not be a good fit for your skill level :) thanks again for the comments.

Oh.. if you're using beginners guides then I guess it makes sense how you might mistake this for a good deck.

I've played secret mage for years up until the Kabal Lackey nerf, always played it to grind for legend. But that nerf basically cost us the one real edge we had in tempo, and that is on top of the waning effect of secrets due to power creep. What you said about early card draw shows that you don't know how fast things are in wild now, and if you want any chance at the higher ranks then you should look at a more tempo-focused secret deck.

I disagree, I just think you’re not piloting the deck properly. Thanks again for the comments.

Overall now, 67%....I've not had much time to play, but I am 8-4, D5-D4

That’s great man 60%+ in Wild is fantastic :) you are officially a Secret Mage Master! 

This deck is pretty good, my friend. I have been a secret mage player for 6+ years. Legend twice. I'm not a consistent/good player. I really have to go to bed now, but i just went 3-0 at D5. SO good. Excited to play more this weekend. Peace. 

Thats awesome man, I think the Mage secret is one of the most powerful advantages the class has and when used with tempo can establish a huge advantage for you on board.  Glad you like it and appreciate the good vibes. :)
