This is my Tempo Mage!
This is an incredible fast deck. Yes , i know. It's the first day of TGT and I'm wrecking everyone!
If i get 12 likes, I'll post a guide! - Actually , after some days. We are only in the second day of TGT! I'll post the guide soon.
If you wanna add me: Occidere#1635.
I'll probably do some changes in the future.

Hello guys , here I am. Sorry for not posting a guide but who doesn't know how to play tempo correctly.
Well , this is the updated version.
+ 2 water elementals = counter to warriors , palas , hunter , rogue. Just too good to not be played.
+ 2 mirror image and 2 arcane missiles = more early flamewaker enablers , using two of each one you don't need to use mech yeti.
+ Loatheb = Solid 5 drop that can save you against hunters , for example or save your board against a consec.

Tempo mage is an aggro deck that tries to get ahead in tempo with apprentices/flamewakers combos and then tries to finish off the opponent with spells/archmage.

Arcane Blasts - That card really surprised me. It gives you so much tempo. So much better than 2 mirror images. If you're seeing loads of shamans , i would add 1 mirror image , tho.
Shreeders - They're just too good. If you're seeing loads of weapon classes i would add 1/2 water elementals.
Counterspell - Good against the most classes in this meta. If you don't like the card i would put in a duplicate.
What would you suggest I put in instead of antonidas, unfortunately i don't have the means to make him right now.
you could sub it in with Ragnaros the Firelord or Sylvanas Windrunner, Archmage Antonidas isn't a must.
Could this deck be played with Nexus-Champion Saraad or Rhonin instead of Archmage Antonidas?
As a bystander who has played a fair share of Tempo Mage, Nexus-Champion Saraad will not be enough to replace Archmage Antonidas. Ragnaros the Firelord is your best replacement, followed by Pyroblast, though neither of those are as good as Antonidas. Rhonin might be your best bet if you don't have either of those.
Its pretty good, more shifts toward early game, might be difficult against warrior or a lucky priest, I would personally +1 toshley. Its also weak against heavy board AOEs, but seems like only popular heavy board AOE played is shaman's lightning storm or pallys consecretion.
Late game when you get antonidas its game over lol, hand full of fireballs GG.
I replaced 1 mirror entity for spellbender starting to test it at rank 5
Great deck. Personally I have to say though, that I found it underperforming if you compare it to other tempo decks like the more basic Waker-mage, mech-mage and zoolock. This could however just be due to the current meta-game, or just due to it not fitting my playstyle. I will however congratulate you on your deck. Its a good theory deck that actually works, and I could see it comming into the meta as people find out how to play TGT. If not anything else, then I can atleast thank you for the fact that I know how to counter it if it ever becomes meta, something that it does have potetial to be.
You can play all decks containing Archmage Antonidas without him, it just makes it harder since you no longer has that strong finisher. If you choose to play without him, then you should also think about if you really needs the spare parts in this deck. So without him you would be better of playing a different kind of tempo mage without the spare parts, but it can be done.
you don't, or you don't run sercets at all
Dude, thats a Paladin card
You can replace the Mad Scientist with basically any low cost minion, but if you replace him then you should also strongly consider cutting out the secrets entirely. The reason why Mad Scientist is so good, is because of the tempo he gives you by forcing your opponent to either play around him, or play around the trap he spawn.
Whats the problem? Just use your Thoughtsteal! x)
That was the joke lol
Best tgt tempo I've played so far. I replaced boom with rhonin currently at rank 5 so I'll see how it goes on the latter.
Rhonin? In a tempo deck? He is much slower then Dr. Boom though, but whatever works I guess.
Find a different deck, that's like asking what you can replace oil with in oil rogue
Did it work at rank 6?
Anything can work at any rank. It all depends on how good you play your deck, how good it does against other decks and how suprising it is for the opponent.
Cool deck, replaced Water Elemental with Nexus-Champion Saraad since I had the luck of pulling him from a pack today. And also added +1 Bloodmage Thalnos for -1 Clockwork Gnome because I crafted that damn bastard and I will use it !
Are you dumb?
