Very good deck. Here are the win conditions.
Tempo: Flamewaker and Spell Overpowerment
Archmage Antonidias: You overwhelm him with spells
Yogg: Yogg can win games on his own
Elise: Once all else fails, she can make your useless spells in the fatigue war useful
If you are playing more aggro than control Blizzard is replaced with Elise. If you are playing more control decks play Elise instead. This deck is insanely fun and great.
Mulligan Guide
General Rule: Always Keep Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker.
Druid (Ramp/C'Thun): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker. .
Hunter (Deathrattle):Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker, Polymorph and Flamestrike.
Mage (Tempo): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker.
Palladin (Deathratte or Aggro):Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker. For this match up, you really shouldn't be getting control based cards for the death rattle because if it is aggro you lose. So I would just go for the cards above and not cards like Polymorph
Priest (Control): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker, Elise Starseekerand Yogg-Saron, Hope's End.
Rogue (Miracle or Deathrattle): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker and Flamestrike.
Shaman (Aggro): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker.
Warlock (Zoo+Reno): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker. Again, it could be a control or it could be a aggro. You have to play for the aggro version.
Warrior (Control): Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, Mirror Image, Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker Elise Starseeker and Yogg-Saron, Hope's End.
Cards to Consider Mulligan: Bloodmage Thalnos and Forbidden Flame
Both good cards and could be kept in your mulligan. I am kind of experimenting with these two cards for now.
Card Explanations:
Forbidden Flame: Really awesome card. Provides a extremely flexible way to take out minions. Can be used early game to take out low cost, or late game to take out threats. Also no mana spell for Archmage and for Flamewaker.
Arcane Blast: Super good. Allows to control the game early, especially with all of these aggro decks in the current meta.
Arcane Missiles: Flamewaker + Missiles = Tempo. Nuff said.
Mana Wyrm: Tunnel Trogg for Mages? Yes please.
Mirror Image: Great early game card to not only eat damage, but allow you to establish a board. Tanks doom hammer damage, early game zoo damage, and is low cost spells for flamewaker, archmage and even yogg.
Frostbolt: Do I have to explain this card?
Sorcerer's Apprentice: One of the best cards. So many spells when you play this card right, you get a ton of value. Also a good low cost minion to drop to establish a board.
Arcane Intellect: Amazing draw card. Draw 2 for three mana. Amazing value.
Flamewaker: Tempo Tempo Tempo Tempo. Anything else?
Fireball: Can hit face, can kill minions. Great value.
Polymorph: Honestly, maybe two of this card. Tirion? NOPE. Faceless 7/7 guy? NOPE. 30/30 C'thun? NOPE. AMAZING CARD.
Cabalist's Tome: Mages lost Unstable Portal, flame cannon, Dr. Boom. Well at least we got this card. Kind of RNG but great value nonetheless.
Ethereal Conjurer: Better than Azure Drake. Allows you to again get the spell you need, like another polymorph or a spell to push for damage. great card.
Archmage Antonidas: A win condition in itself. Amazing card.
Flamestrike: Need a card to counter aggro. It is amazing against every deck. Might keep in mulligan sometimes. Great great GREAT card.
Bloodmage Thalnos: Spell Damage and Draw? Sure.
Elise Starseeker: After all else fails, you need a win condition. This is it.
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End: MVP. Remember play turn 10, don't wait for 30 spells, play after 7 or more because you will guaranteed get great value.
Video (shoutout bro awesome):
Awesome video, everyone check this one out too (SPANISH WARNING)
Legend? (Basically, uploading legend video when I get the likes, guide coming soon):
Is there any new additions in the new set to make this deck good?
think this deck will be better with the new expansion. I don't know though. To get legend and my 12 wins in heroic brawl i used Hunter. Mage just doesn't seem strong right now. I hope things change with the next expansion.
just hit 500 wins ranked with the deck! Finally gold mage! Long run, but got 500 wins with tempo mage solely. Thanks
I took out yoggg and both Etheral Conjurers for Arcane Giants and Medivh. It isn't doing that well Im just trying new things. Its very unfortunate as the whole point of this deck was Yogg at its center point. I was one of the first YOgg decks on the website. Kind of sad.
What is a good replacement for Bloodmage Thalnos? Just dusted my Yogg for Antonidas.
I just put in Kobold Geomancer for now, thinking about Azure Drake but its 5 mana
Yeah, I know it's very strong but I don't have 1600 dust to make it at the moment. I will consider the loot hoarder, never thought of that.
REST IN PEACE YOGG SARON. I need to change the deck now that Yogg is not viable anymore
Hey futhead! I don't remember the original line up, did you replace Yogg with Medivh?
Now that warrior, hunter and shaman are a little bit slower he could see much more use, right?
Thanks!
maybe I should try to add in arcane giant, what do you guys think?
The deck is very good, but the videos made me want to throat punch the first guy, which is annoying when dumb speaking and then rip my ears, cause' Blizzard in spanish sucks reaally hard, and I'm from Argentina!
Added + 2 Arcane Giant and - 1 [card]Elise Starseeker[/card] - 1 Flamestrike and its been working out great so far and lots of fun thank you
updated the deck list with karazhan. Still very strong and karazhan makes this deck even better. Let me know what you guys think.
any replacement for medivh?
What is the best replacement for flamewaker until I get it?
I don't think there would be a replacement since its basically a key card in tempo decks.
For Flamewaker, wouldn't Jeweled Scarab work? you have a good chance at getting Flamewakerplus maybe a good spell or two
Not the greatest deck, but if you want to have fun while playing ladder and aren't trying to push legend super aggressively this deck is definitely fun to play. I play it just cause it gives me some fun yoggs, and at the same time get to climb the ladder a bit
Hi there,
nice deck went from 7 to 4 with 1 loss...just play blizzard instead of elise, works quiet well.
I tried this and it is working great so far. Blizzard seems to have a lot more value than Elise in this type of deck. Great suggestion!
thats what i said
