So here is a fun twist on a tempo mage that i've thrown together. It has a 60% win rate rank 4-6 this season.
Coin is helpful in this deck as it plays into flamewaker and archmage combo. Off the start you want to mulligan for your mana wyrm, missiles, flame cannon, frost bolt, portals, or mad scientists. With coin, i will keep a flamewaker if i have a turn 1 or 2 play, especially if that play is frostbolt, flame cannon, portal, or missiles. Don't hesitate to use your missiles early to keep board, sometimes i'm guilty of hoarding them for the Malygos combo.
Thaurissan is best played when you have one of; Malygos, apprentice, or your missiles as collected from rhonin in hand. As this will set up Malygos combo end game. It is a beautiful thing to watch when it comes together and can be seen here: http://youtu.be/8BLoi6lS_m0?a
I've recently added 2 Shredders as i found i was losing board control midgame and struggling to catch up. Before the deck had a second mana wyrm and flamestrike. What I've found is that keeping the board early allows for Ethereal Conjurers to be played without worry. Against aggro decks, blizzard, flamestrike, ice barrier, are good drafts (situationally of course) from your conjurer. Against tempo/combo/control it will be purely situational.
2 counterspells are useful against priest, as it protects against Entomb. Also good against Druid if you can snipe a savage roar or force of nature. Try to get Effigy value as not many tempo mages are currently run it and most people don't see it coming. Land it on Rhonin, Archmage, or Malygos and you're laughing!
Good luck! and look forward to seeing some people make it rain, Malygos style.

I think subbing out the Ethereal Conjurers for X2 abominations or X2 healbots might help stablize the mid game? I've always been a fan of counter spell and they take so much tempo away from the opponent when played right.
Pity on the stats vs Paladin as that is the most dominant class - Am surprised you got to Rank 2 inspite of that. !
Abominations aren't a great card imo. 4/4 that hits your minions and face as well for 5 cost..not great. This deck started with a healbot but i just found card cycle from azure and conjurer to be more situationally benefitial. Conjurer sometimes yields ice barrier/ice block or aoe removal which is just as good as a healbot. TBH i saw more druid and warlock sub rank 5 than paladin, maybe just lucky. Coinflip vs. secret paly i'll take anyday tho.
Looks awesome bro! :)
You got any gameplay footage?
Thanks for the reply sir tacos. Just a few of malygos making it rain on biznitches. I'll record a few games tomorrow and post to youtube

Just made it to rank 3 with MalyMissiles. I have >80% win rate vs. Warrior and am seeing a bunch of them. Here's my new prize for the season :)

I tryed this deck but don't think it fits well in the meta. The lack of early game (only one mana wyrm and no arcane blast) doesn't help you. Even when you can control the board and get your Rhonin, your health is low and your opponent continues to push your face. The few times you can use your Malygos it's too late and you get silenced. BTW I liked the deck and think you can use it in casual games for a lot of fun. Thank you
Thanks for the reply Xeufi. I actually don't have arcane blast, but agree it could be subbed in for a frostbolt or flame cannon. probably flame cannon would help deal with aggro decks more efficiently actually. I disagree about the current meta tho. I've only played it at about rank 5, just pulled up my Hearthstats:
Druid 66%
Hunter 20%
Mage 71.4%
Paladin 25%
Priest 77.8%
Shaman 0%
Warlock 71.4%
Warrior -
So...it doesn't fare well against aggro decks, apart from zoolock for some reason. This is just a 50 game sample. I am fluctuating from rank 5 to 4. I might craft arcane blast to see if that makes a difference. With arcane blast i would consider another azure drake to a conjurer.
Oops i posted the wrong stats: (win%)
Druid 75%
Hunter 60%
Mage 50%
Paladin 33%
Priest 75%
Rogue 50%
Shaman 50%
Warlock 60%
warrior 80%
So better than i even thought. :)
