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):
What would be the best replacement for forbidden flame?
probably flame lance
I agree - Forbidden Flame is worse on the tempo side, but late game you can get a free Fireball from Antonidas
Ya but it's time being put in for the community. I don't personally care about guides as I change the decks anyways and only use them as a core. But How many yogg tempo decks are there out there? just because this one randomly gets likes it gets put on the first page? And maybe gets a guide? I personally think guides should be what makes the top decks on the first page. Not doing the same deck as everyone else and being lucky to just make it to the top page.
I don't have bloodmage thalnos. What's the best replacement.?
Kobold gemomancer
Cult Sorcerer might do good.
want to like this deck but guide for upvotes is pretty anti community so withholding judgment till then....If you want recognition put in the work pls.
How? whats the point in making a guide if no one will view it? My point is that the deck is what everyone wants, so if everyone wants a guide I will give it to them. Most people just want to net deck and leave.
sorry but no, That is not what people want. People want to see a new deck yes but saying no I will not give a guide till you give me recognition is just bad form, and something that many in this community are sick of. I get why people have flocked to this method, as they want to know people will appreciate the hard work they have put into their deck and guide. Trust me I completely understand, however such understanding does not change the fact that it is not only anti community, but a frowned practiced.
When you make a deck and there is a guide people tend to appreciate it more rather then gloss over it for the build. Not to mention if there is no guide and people lose with it how likely are they to upvote?
Now as stated when there is a guide I would give judgement. I had a chance to test this deck a bit on ladder. Its a fun deck...Most of the time I win without playing Yogg. Several times he has saved my ass. And several times he has bent me over. Thats just Yogg for you. All in all a good deck. Interesting side note. I REALLY REALLY HATE ASTRAL COMMUNION!!!!
Why not cater to both groups?
why not just put out the guide....instead of pandering for upvotes. As it stands decks that do this can be removed from from page for doing so and never see the light of day...Like I said. "Frowned upon"
I tried this deck and here's the result. The game went into fatigue and Yogg saved the day (TWICE! LOL).
Here's the 'short highlight':

Ignore the ranking... that other warrior was atleast rank 5+. This was first day of the new season.
I hope these clips encourage the yogg meta.
Editing the guide now
This season I've been mainly playing tempo-control mage (otherwise known as mid-range?). Some days it works great, other days it's like hitting your head on a wall. Originally, I took the deck from rank 10 to rank 4 - 4*s. Yesterday was a stupid day, match after match drawing very little early game, not drawing into the multiple card draws and getting burned by shammies and hunters. Seems to me this is the typical life of the post mad scientist mage player.
Great deck! Finally got rank 24 after going 1-25 with my standard mech mage! I've been looking for a "tempo" deck that sacrifices tempo for absurd late game value for no reason, and this deck is perfect for that!
LOL!!!! Holy crap, dying......well played sir
Have all but Antonidas any replacements for him?
how is working with mukla?
I need a personal coach for this deck please, add PadyRoyal#2218
