An upgraded non-budget version of my budget mage deck
http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/503285-budget-cthun
The most important upgrade in my opinion is Twin Emperor Vel'kor
If there is enough interest I will make a brief guide on how to play it.
Check out my other no adventure budget decks below:

I make these decks to give f2p players some fun decks to try out instead of just druid c'thuns. I sometimes sacrifice making the deck slightly better to put in new and fun cards. Personally I'd rather have fun and win 50% percent of the time then net deck and win 60% of the time.
update PLEASE
Should I prioritize the crafting of Sylvannas or Twin Empperor Vek'lor?
I was at rank 14 playing dragon mage. Wanted to grind the ladder with this deck - went back to rank 17. I only miss vek'lor which is substitued for a crazed warshiper. I somehow cannot play this deck, I can't get a positive winrate, seems like I don't play it right. Sometimes it feels like tempo mage but w/o the spell benefitting minions. Several times the first 10 cards of the deck didnt contain a single c'thun card. Happened quite few times to have like 4-6 spells, no minions at all. Feels stupid to blow missiles over an empty board... When I play against some sorta combo otk deck I feel i need to burst otherwise I'm getting killed but I just dont have the cards. Did some casual matches to practice - same bad results. Getting raped by pretty much anybody. I just dont feel I have the upper hand against any class/deck. Overall I feel like its 2 different decks split in half and merged into this one. Would be glad if someone share some general strategy. Btw c'thun is usually gettin in between 11-15 dmg and is removed the very next turn. Unless it's played on empty board (which is exotic at turn 10) it feels like a weaker pyroblast. Isn't it a good idea to put least one doomcaller.
Dunno what the hell you're doing, this deck brought me 20 rank 12 and still climbing.
So how effective is the upgraded version? People on the budget one were getting rank 12 (I think was the highest I saw) but nobody here is saying how high they've gotten. I'd imagine you'd get much higher with the new Legendaries and stuff
Forgotten Torch might be alright. I'm currently using 2x Babbling Book
Thank you for updating this deck!
Please, add a short guide on tactics, mullligan and card replacement
Also, I think this deck needs Doomcaller for late game and Brann Bronzebeard for wombo combos.
And I replaced Faceless Summoner with Ethereal Conjurer
Replace Faceless with Etheral Conjurer, way better
i dont have brann what do you think i can switch it for? for now i tried switching it out for twilight elder. any other suggestions?
This is a non-budget version. Check out his budget version (first link in description). My first upgrade from non-budget was switching a Twilight Elder for Brann Brozebeard, so I guess you'll play him if you dont have brann.
Should i see this deck as a Midrange deck or Control ? i know its a silly question but...
why run arcane missles without flamewaker
ARCHMAGE BRUH!!!!!
What can I replace Arcane Blast with?
I've only got 1 Forbidden Flame, so I thought it was useful to keep tempo in some matches and it's a good spell on it's own, but I'm wondering what other card could I use. Forgotten Torch seems like a decent replacement at the moment, but I'm not so sure about that one.
Is there a place for flamewaker
Very fun deck.
Sadly I don't have Archmage Antonidas so I replaced him with Ragnaros the Firelord. I feel like they're similar anyway.
replacement for brann bronzebeard????
Replacement for Sylvanas guys pls ?
It may sound odd, but with all the aggro decks out there, I replaced my Sylvanas Windrunner with an Arcane Blast. I was averaging a 50% win rate with this deck around ranks 12-10. Now, I'm up to 56% (33-26 so far) and am now at rank 8. The AB works amazingly well with the Cult Sorcerer as well.
