Disco party started tonite. You know my moves, Im the King of the dancefloor. I have an awesome deck for you! (Wheee, bam bam)
As you know Im addicted to mages since my first day in Hearthstone (you dont? Now you know!) One idea was swarming my mind the last couple of months:
How to transform a tempomage into a midrange mage?
Thanks to Blizzard and the new expansion I have the tools that I was seeking for. Hello, Firelands Portal
This build is still a tempo mage in some means, but its leaning towards the mid/late gaming. The Firelands Portal is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!1111111
«Give me Leeroy Jenkins», as you wish:
The power of this deck is limitless! Feel free to add me in Battle.net and Twitch. Post a comment, Ill reply ASAP.
And the stats lads, rank 4 right now, btw:
Just got absolutely crushed by an aggro/shielding pally. Didn't have any cheap AoE removals.
I did the following changes:
- iceblock
+ Acolyte of pain
- Cabalist's tome
+ Flamestrike
For the rest nice deck, although somewhat of a copy/past from Hotforms. The only changes you did were the addition of the new portals and iceblock, which is imo completely nonsensical, but okay...if it works for you why not :)
And its working pretty well. Cant say that its a copypasta cuz the core of the deck is allways one. Though, in time, its gonna become a mirange deck, so Ill transform it. Thx for the comment, GL in laddering!
Thanks mate, good luck to you too and thanks for the deck.
Suppose Cabalist tome would be better for control matchups while flamestrike for aggro/midrangy. Gonna keep FS for now and see how it works out at ranks 10 currently, and otherwise might switch to CB.
Do we keep Iceblock or replace it like @Eltargrim did to his deck?
What is a good replacement for Bloodmage Thalnos ?
[card]Bloodmage Thalnos[/card], hmmm. I think that Acolyte of Pain has potential and the first choice.
Second is Loot Hoarder, additional draw is really important here.
Third, maybe Kobold Geomancer, if U need spell damage.
Why have Ice Block without Reno or Alex?
I can tell you from experience that playing Yogg after Ice Block is triggered is a horrible idea. Yogg will either kill you or fail to heal/armor you up enough to keep you alive for any longer than one whole turn. It's been so long since Yogg's been released and people still don't seem to understand that you aren't supposed to build around Yogg. He's just a secondary card to include for a potential swing-back when you lost the board and don't have any answers that could stabilize you. It's even in his name: "Hope's End". Yogg is a desperation play.
Ice Block is an additional turn with so many burn spells in this build. Awesome addition, great in this SMORc meta. And [card]Yogg-Saron, Hope's End[/card] is just an option to get back into the game, when I dont have any Hope mate.
p.s. If U dont have luck with the RNG, I wish you all the best mate! GL in laddering
it's really surprising to see "why ice block" in otk worgen/zoo (leeroy+p.o+p.o+soulfire) meta O.o
I think it's obvious decision to put it in
Well, I only started climbing the ladder and you won't see OTK for the first several ranks, so I wasn't thinking ahead.
ah, okay, GL in laddering :)
