Hi all!! I am Uroshmeister and i present to you the ultimate dragon mage.
It is really strong in the current meta, pretty much there is no bad matchup. Your goal is to use dragon combo cards to gain control and once you get it, its pretty much easy to win.
First of all, let me tell you this. I am playing hearthstone since the beta came out, and i guess when you play a game for a while it gets boring. I felt the same a couple months back. Same decks every day, same cards, same gameplay or no gameplay (huntards) and so i got bored of the game. And then a week ago, i saw Brian Kibbler playing this deck. At first sight i saw it has the pottential, but when i started playing it...WOW! The whole joy of playing this game came back again. I cannot explain how fun this deck can be, even when i'm losing i'm like: "ok, it was fun at least". I felt so good that i needed to share this deck. I made a profile on hearthpwn just for it. I had to...
Card review:
Zombie chow- Since this deck doesnt run mana wyrms for an obviuous reason, we need some kind of an early body to trade against aggro decks, and zombie chow is the best imo. Late game it can be a dead card but it doesnt need to be, the reason is that the point of this deck is not bursting your opponent down but controling the board, so even 5 health restoration isnt that bad if it leaves you with board control.
Mad scientist-we have secrets, sooo....also good for trading with aggro
Frostbolt- it can be used to kill early game minions, or to help deal with bigger targets late game. Almost never use it for face, except when you feel that you really need to stop that grim warrior combo or in other rare occasions (also for lethal, don't forget! :) ).
Counterspell- I find this secret really op, imo it's better than duplicate just because it can really mess up your opponents plan. Only time when its wasted is when the opponent has the coin or spare parts so try to play around them.
Ice barrier- 16 extra hp is huge, specially against huntards and zoo. Feel free to activate it anytime, cause there is no bad moment for activating it.
Arcane intellect- Besides azure drakes we need some kind of a card draw for those rare situations when you miss a dragon in your hand...it happens. Really.
Big game hunter- everyone runs Dr.Dre at least...
Blackwing technician- 3-5 body for 3 mana is ridiculous, even when you play it as 2-4 its fine.
Polymorph- good for dealing with thaurissan, belchers,or any other big threat.
Kezan Mystic- A lot of decks run them too, so when they steal it from you, just take it back. MINE! :)
Twilight Drake- It's a dragon, obviously, and it can be played as a really big body. Of course this isn't magelock and you dont skip till turn 4 to drop it, but even if its, 4-5,4-6 it's a good body, Sure, it can be silenced but it really paid of a lot of times, as a dragon in your hand for combos, or just not being silenced.
Antique healbot- since there are so much burst decks now, it feels like every control deck needs to run at least one .
Azure drake- dragon,card draw, spellpower...seems worthy.
Blackwing corruptor- 3 dmg battlecry is so good. Kills small minions or helps trade with big ones. Also 5-4 body is not bad.
Sludge belcher- this is your only taunt in this deck and what gives you more control than taunt?
Sylvannas- its value is op, avoid playing it on clear board and dont hesitate to use frostbolts or blackwings on her if it steals you big targets.
Dr. boom- no need to say anything, really...
Flamestrike- Wins you the game if played correctly. Clearing the enemy board while leaving you with few strong minions is pretty much game over for the enemy...
Nefarian- it's battlecry can be game winning (sacrifical pact etc.). Try baiting out big game and other removals before playing it.
Ysera- This card...I think that this card surviving few turns is a nightmare every hearthstone player fears of. Also always bait removals before playing it. Even if it gets silenced, no problem, 4-12 is enough to finnish the work.
Pretty much there is no need to take every match up, one by one. You always go for the board, no matter what you're playing aggainst (Huntard or Handlock ). There will be a lot of long matches, but don't be scared, you're outcontrolling almost every control decks out there: warriors, druids, priests...doesn;t matter, just stick to your gameplay and play smart. There will be bad days when you dont draw a dragon in first 10 or more turns ( it happened, really) but most of the time it;s all about using your advantages the best way. Just get to know the deck first, feel it's power and enjoy the game, cause that's what the game is all about, right? Of course not! It's about winning and bm- ing your opponent and making them ragequit! Cheers and enjoy the deck! :)
Hungry dragon is nice, but aggainst aggro decks it's imo worse than twilight, because you give your opponent one more minnion to harras your face and volcanic is maybe more viable than hungry dragon, but still 6-4 for 4,5 mana (unless you flamestrike first) is less cost effective than twilight. Just my opinion :)
GREAT DECK! Lol I was running a couple of practice matches with it in Kripp mode (:P) then took it into ranked and destroyed a face hunter and a mech shaman. This deck is a LOT of fun and VERY strong if you play your cards properly. Vs face hunter just remember to save the Kezan Mystic to steal his Freezing Trap and he's finished. Mech shaman? Pffft no problem, just wait for that pesky Fel Reaver then freeze him with Frostbolt for a couple turns while you play your cheap cards to burn him into fatigue with nothing left in his hand but the "Concede" button lol
+100 if I could, this deck is amazingly fun and very OP since most people expect you to be a mech mage or freeze mage atm.
PS - I substituted 1x Twilight Drake for 1x Faerie Dragon just for the earlier harass and low cost card draw. It's good for mulligans since Faerie Dragon can be VERY hard to deal with early on or used for more good early trades for early board clear :)
Nice to hear that, enjoy! :)
Nice and funny deck!
Which card do you think is the best to replace Ysera? Ragnaros the Firelord or Alexstrasza ?
This deck is really crushing. I've just fatigued a HandlockZooDemon (yes, it was that weird) while having 39hp. In the process, I Twisting Nether him for 1 Sylvanas Windrunner, 1 Molten Giant and 2 Flame Imp
Put a smile on my face. It was the ultimate BM
Rag, just because this is not a burst deck, so imo alexstraza isn't that good
I don't know what happened with your matches but I think this all comes down to user error. I destroyed face hunter and mech shaman with little to no problem. You just have to have the right cards mulligan for you as well or else you'll get smooshed. Honestly I see quite a few people say that a deck is bad against aggro because they keep the wrong cards from the start of the game and don't have anything to answer the early aggro with.
Yeah this deck is good mang thanks for the share on here :p ! I'm glad I had the opportunity to make a gameplay video of this deck today :D ! Was hilarious facing a druid who thought he could just combo me to death but little did he know I had Ice Barrier FTW :Keepo: ! Also really enjoyed the Kezan Mystic against facehunter :3 ! ANYWAYS!!! Enjoy my gameplay!!!
cool shirt! where do you buy your weed?
Thanks! :4Head: High on life bro!
Thanks for the upload, glad you enjoyed the deck :)
Yea I wonder why he did not do that. Sometimes we don't see the lethal I guess haha
No problemo thanks for the share it was fun :D !
Haha yeah some1 said that on youtube too XD ! It's all a mind game my friend ;P ! Probably thought there was no hope because Ice Barrier lol so didn't even think about charging :o !
It's true sometimes it is a mindgame :D !
Hi, This is actually Brian Kibler's Deck, as the author even admitted, its not his own creation. Kibler's deck link
Thanks for the link :p !
- 1 Zombie Chow
+ 1 Deathwing
Very fun deck lol
Love this deck! Only really have a hard time against Midrange Hunters and Handlocks. But thats mostly user error and I know what Im doing wrong. But otherwise this is a great deck! I took out 1 Chow and Counterspell for 2 Duplicates. I feel that mid-late game they have a much better feel in this deck when Im copying belchers/corrupters or even Legendaries, its insane having 3 Belchers on the field guarding a Ysera!
Have you played with Duplicate? Two extra copies of Blackwing Corruptor or Twilight Drake in hand is very strong.
I originally tried with it, it's also very good, I just feel that counterspell is better. Play both versions and see which fits your playstyle more
