Update (for guys from comments): This deck was used by Savjz on his stream about a week ago. I don't know the story behind the deck, if it's copied or outdated or old. I just DON'T CARE. Sajvz is one of my favourite streamers and I didn't found this deck under his name so that's why I created it. I think it's a good deck, not excellent in days of shaman and hunter cancers everywhere but it's quite competetive and funny. Savjz hit Legend with this deck btw.
And ofc apologies for No guide here, I didn't think that someone would really upvote this, so really really sorry to everyone who expected guide. I will share some ideas later :). Thanks for support to all.
Guide Part
Point of this deck is clear. Last as long as possible to burst down your enemy. This could be done by many ways, we will talk about it later.
- Card Explanations/Replacements
Alexstrasza - Core of this deck. Takes away half of opponent's Health and puts "Giant type" 8/8 on board. It's very hard to burst down your opponent from 30 HP without this mighty dragon, but not impossible (especially with Evolved Kobold in deck). If you play Alexstrasza, you have to be ready with Ice Block on at least one turn before, because you won't be able to play both of them in one turn (unless you got discount from Emperor Thaurissan). In some cases you might be to forced to use Alexstrasza on your own hero, but then you have a little chance to win (I did it twice and both games lost). Very hard to replace, Pyroblast could work but I don't recommend this.
Emperor Thaurissan - Really good helper and insane combo maker. Card discount is your backup plan, if you aren't able to draw Alexstrasza. Try to discount as many cards as possible, especially Damage Spells and Spell Damage minions. If stays on board more than 1 turn, you will have great chance to win. Important combos lower. Unique effect, non replaceable.
Bloodmage Thalnos - Controversial card. Gives your spells 1+ damage and can draw a card in emergency by pinging it. This card might seem very useless, but I think it belongs to this deck, because of variability of card. Good replacements are Cult Sorcerer or Kobold Geomancer.
Doomsayer - Card that can turn around whole game. In worst scenario gives you one extra turn (because opponent will focus on it, if he doesn't want to lose his board minions), in best scenario destroys whole enemy board.
Working on rest. Stay strong.
I don't care whose this decklist is but I just want to say its amazing! I always wanted to try Freeze Mage and I read many guides for it so i understood that its almost impossible to win against Control Warrior. I managed to OTK Cotrnol warrior with 15 hp and 24 armor by topdecking Evolved Kobold and combo with Bloodmage Thalnos into double Roaring Torch a single Frostbolt and x2 Ice Lance for exact lethal! I'm so happy that I managed to do that and I'm glad to whoever made this list!
This is Laughings list not Savjz's or anyone else's wtf....
I've used a Wild/Poor version of the typical Freeze Mage, taking away Forgotten Torch and Emperor Thaurissan. It's been doing wonders for me.
2x Ice Lance
2x Doomsayer
2x Frostbolt
1x Kobold Geomancer (I've been using this instead of Bloodmage Thalnos).
2x Loot Hoarder
2x Mad Scientist
1x Acolyte of Pain
2x Arcane Intellect
2x Frost Nova
2x Ice Barrier
2x Ice Block
2x Cone of Cold
2x Fireball
2x Blizzard
1x Archmage Antonidas
1x Flamestrike
1x Alexstrasza
1x Pyroblast

So far, so good. Feels nostalgic to play this deck :)
There is already guide for this deck here:
http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/611782-evolved-kobold-freeze-mage-guide
I guess there is no point to repost same decks again and again.
Why tech out flamestrike for another ice barrier?
Its called freeze mage mate.
On a serious note, from my experience blizzard is more useful than flamestrike in this deck, mostly because it costs less and freezes big minions that survive the damage.
Then we could replace it with cone of cold instead. Right?
I think it depends on which Decks you face the most.... Against Shamans I find Flamestrike to have more impact than the other cards.... As for Ice Barrier I think two of them are needed only in a really aggro oriented meta... If you faced a lot of Hunters or Pirate Warriors two Barriers would be ok.... I've never been a fan of COC, but if you're facing a lot of Zoo it might be ok.... I personally prefer Flamestrike right now,but if I had to pick between Barrier and COC I'd definitely go for the latter....
nope
Well, there's an evolved kobold tossed in, thats the only thing that differs it from the "classic" freeze mage that has been around + 1 year. On the other hand this deck is actually something new.
are you a new player? aggro freeze mage has been a thing for a long time before standard hit, it was even stronger back then, with leper gnomes and mad scientist
Why do people actually upvote this deck? It's false and it should be downvoted instead.
Man some of these comments bashing this deck have like 37 upvotes on them, the deck is fishing for likes, not even savjz's deck, and it's got 90+ upvotes. Just adds up wrong, doesn't it?
Guide for a freeze mage in Q4 2016 lol i don't think that's quite necessary :D
The ladder is filled with this.
I fought 3 times this deck in a row just today =O
Edit: correction I fought against this deck 11 times only today
Do you play on EU? I haven't played in a couple of days and I really hope I'll get to play against this Deck as many times as you did... I love Freeze Mirrors....
