Stab at standard format version of Thijs's burnin' freeze mage.
Took out one ice barrier and added in a kirin tor, flamestrike and one loot horder, for a little more early game and cycle in the absence of the mad scientists.
In standard there should be a little less early pressure and aggro (except for Shamans) so deck could still run well without the early scientists.
For other scrubs like me, do be aware of whats in your hand:
Frostbolt + Frostbolt + Ice Lance + Ice Lance + Ping = 15 DMG (8 Mana)
Ice Lance + Icelance + Roaring Torch + Fireball = 16 DMG (9 Mana)
Frostbolt + Ice Lance + Ice Lance + Forgotten Torch/Roaring Torch/Fireball + Ping = 15/18/18 DMG (9/9/10)
Frostbolt + Frostbolt + Ice Lance + Ice Lance + Forgotten Torch/Roaring Torch/Fireball = 17/20/20 DMG (9/9/10 Mana)
Frostbolt + Ice Lance + Forgotten Torch/Roaring Torch + Fireball = 16/19 DMG (10 Mana)
These are just some high damage combos that don't require a round of Emperor. I'm sure i'm missing some other popular combos.
I think your math is a little off... lol Some of these are the costs WITH emperor.
Frostbolt (2) + Frostbolt (2) + Ice Lance (1) + Ice Lance (1) + Ping (2) = 15 DMG (8 Mana)
Ice Lance (1) + Icelance (1) + Roaring Torch (3) + Fireball (4) + Ping (2) = 17 DMG (11 Mana)
You could replace with a loot hoarder...
I think Bloodmage Thalnos is one of the best standard legendaries. It fits in some other decks too. :) If you have some dust it is really worth crafting.
Replace for Pyroblast (I know that is good card but I don't have it)))
Archmage Antonidas
arch mage used to be played in all freeze mage lists, this is torch freeze which is much better imo.
I am currently rank 356 with a list like this except im running 2 cones of cold and 2 blizzards and no barriers
Since we don't have the scientists, the deck is actually thickened.It's so difficult to get a key card,such as the Emperor or BloodMage.
More “draw a card” is severe waste for the crystal ,or tempo.
So how to solve it? Less Secret? or more minions? or more AOE?
run 2 cones instead of ice barriers and 2 blizzards
agree on 2x coc. They serve the same purpose of life gain. I'm personally running a cult apothecary instead of an ice barrier.
Cool deck, but it gets beaten out a lot by C'thun Warrior, which is one of the top decks at the moment. I'd wait to use this for when the meta calms down.
Do you happen to have a link to that deck list?
So what you're saying is that Thijs has never played this deck. I don't think you should use his name in that case.
Deck doesn't feel the same after removing the Mad Scientists. Feels like Freeze Mage got nerfed while the other classes got buffed. Much tougher time to win with FM now than before.
Maybe, but the current decks you face are super super super slow. You do not have to worry against any face hunters or other early game aggression. Where you had to save you ass before the expansion came out, you now can easily draw cards and chill.
Really? With healbot gone freeze mage is unstoppable right now. If you have Ice Block up and proceed to Alex your opponent's face it almost a guarantee win because there's no way they can heal back. Except for priest and pala tho.
I'll need to practice it more, i suppose.
I have to disagree, cause of all the warriors and priest are just healing/tanking them out of range, or i'm just facing a renodeck... Even with malygos i do not have enough burst. :(
Holy Molly. I just got 5-0 on freeze while i was eating my cheeseburger, sitting in McDonalds. It seems, that it goes even better than before the update. Probably because of more draws, i felt like i always have a card that i need. I'm actually happy now.
P.s. i'm playing on rank 5
I think this is the convincing comment to craft this deck haha. You would recommend it then? :D
