Hi guys, I'm Yueshen.
Chinese players and their decks are kind of unknown to the world, but there are still some good players and interesting decks. You may heard about the Chinese Priest that Savjz used, and also you may know the Freeze Aggro Mage made by Tiddler that Gosugamers posted before. I will share some interesting decks in CN servers in future. Hope you can get what you what.
The Chinese player called (life is a trip)#5671 used this Mage deck easy climb to Legend #62 in CN Server.
We can see there are a lot of spells to work with Flamewaker.
This Aggro Mage is strange with its playing style. As the Aggro Mage you should clear your opponent's board and go face at the same time. You also can find some Tempo Mage's cards such as Unstable Portal and Mad Scientist-Secret combo in this deck to help you getting advantage early.
Ice Blockcan help you to survive one more turn then you may can draw enough damage to win the game.
I will not say a lot about how to play it, in my perpective it must be better for people to understand after trying it.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to read this. I plan to continue sharing Chinese Decks in future.

"Life is a trip"#5671 changed a little bit and used this hit Legend #7 in CN Server.
Matchup:
Favorite matchup:
Oil Rogue: You have a lot of damage, just think yourself is a Face Mage. Easy win for this. (2-0 100% winrate against Rogue.)
Midrange Druid: You are faster than Druid. If you can play Flamewaker or Antonidas with your cheap spells, you have a huge chance of winning.( 9-2 78% winrate against Druid)
Midrange Hunter/Face Hunter: You can clear Hunter's board and deal damage at same time. 100%winrate against Face Hunter, and Midrange Hunter is much less than Face Hunter in China. (13-3 81%winrate against Hunter.)
Handlock: Easy win. (11-4 73% winrate against Warlock)
Priest: Priest is kind of passive. If you can deal some damage with your minion, it will be easy for you to win the game against Priest. (3-0 100% winrate against Priest)
Normal matchup:
Grim Patron Warrior, Paladin, Freeze Mage
Not good matchup:
Control Warrior: Too much armor, and it is easy for warrior to clear your board. If Control Wrrior doesn't Draw good, you still have chance to win. (9-6 60% winrate against warrior)
Zoo: Too many minions, some times you will worry about to use spells clear the board or go face.
Mech Mage: Same reason as Zoolock.
Go face as much as you can usually. Try to deal damage with your minions at the early game.
Hope you guys can have fun with this made-in-china deck. haha
Thanks for taking time to read this!
So there isn't 5 card different deck in the game? If you replace a card, it's 2 cards difference? LOL
Cool deck, after going with mill rogue to 18 rank i go to 6 rank with it. But i have VERY bad matchup against warriors, they play armorsmith and acolyte of pain and i try NOT TO USE FLAMEWALKER in that situations T.T
amazing deck, changed the following: Coldlight, 2 pilotted / Antonidus, Loatheb, Thalnos
still ultimate glasscannon, doing autoloss, to mechmage, facehunter and patron warrior, priest
all in all unplayable on ladder in eu
Looks fresh. Gotta test this to be sure, but pyroblast seems out of place here. -1 Pyroblast +1 Bloodmage thalnos seems more solid.
I think Emperor may be too heavy for this deck to play.
Really Nice deck.
I play it since a few days, from rank 11 to 5.
-1 coldlight oracle
+1 arcane explosion
Been testing if for a while, it is an outstanding deck but requires very good decision making, the RNG factor of this deck isn't usually an issue, even on back luck plays i've managed to win 7 ou of 7 games in casual, and 5 out of 6 games in ranked mode around rank 10. Half of those matches were played with an extra mirror entity instead of ice block.
Bad players won't benefit from this and say it's a back deck, but i've won more than 1 time vs a lot of decks:
My only loss came from a weird mech mage variation in wich i must say it was all about luck from his side, he had starting hand countering mine (mana wyrm + mirror image VS mana wyrm + flamecannon) , perfect draws and RNG betrayed me more than once.
Thanks for sharing man! I'm currently watching a variation of this deck being played by Amaz, it's pretty sick. I was like what the hell he's playing, weird combination but it works like a charm. The only thing weak is the arcane missile, I think. And this deck usually ran out of trick pretty fast.
Play almost the same deck for some time. Looks like it is better to use 2 entities instead of 1 entity 1 counterspell until very high ranks with a high probability of playing the same opponents multiple times. 2x Arcan missiles feel incredibly weak in control and Grim Patron match ups, I prefer 2x Mirror Image.
-coldlight +antonidas
Oh man, you made the same choice as the builder did. haha
I've tested it for a while now, althought didn't risk to play ranked not to hurt my grinding with another deck (paladin dragon control, currently rank 8).
It really feels weird playing it, but it works! I've played 8 matches and won all, but i gotta say some of them i thought there would be no coming back as i needed some wipe spell, but then, all of a sudden i managed to deal with and win out of nowhere. It is really hard to see it as a powerful deck looking at the list, because this deck is a very weird mix of aggro and control. You will not focus on clearing the board, but you will stall a little as you damage the opponent. I've played against some aggros and it crushed all of them, because this deck can stall their damage at the same time it keeps the enemy health in check.
Every match will be a different playstyle because this deck is very flexible, I never liked Ice Lance outside a burn deck, but it has proven more than a surprise 4 damage, it deals well with big guys, buying you enough time to do work. I really can't explain better than that, you have to test it yourself to see.
Great deck, after trolling my way from rank 10 to rank 18 this season with a terrible druid mill deck, I made this deck with a few tweaks and won 15 games in a row, and still counting.
This is a perfect deck for the current meta, as it seems to be all about aggro atm.
+1 for the deck, keep up the good work
You put iceblock but no flamestrike? what is the purpose of this deck?
No thanks.
What is the win condition of this deck?most of the midrange/control decks can handle the pressure of that deck.i am not sure though about zoo/hunter and other fast decks,but i can say for sure that slower decks can wreck that deck.
Yueshen, memeda~
This is so terrible, considering Bloodmage Thalnos isn't even in a deck with nothing but tons of burn and card draw ...
Lol i got archmage in unstable portal turn 2, played him turn 3 with coin, gg... concede turn 5
Ice Block doesn't make sense to me.
Lol.
These Chinese players always have such weird things that work, like worgen + charge + cruel taskmaster to beat Kolento.
Each server has its own interesting meta.
Exactly: I'd opt for more tempo from things like Mirror entity.
I always find it interesting though how a lot of the times Chinese decks surprise you with how effective they are. Likewise, I can see why the block is there.
I still just think it's sub-optimal in comparison to another mirror entity because of scientist.
