This is the last iteration of the deck I've been playing since the release
of MSG. This deck seems quite powerful with a lot of innate synergies.

Core of the deck: Reno Jackson, Kazakus, Inkmaster Solia, Manic Soulcaster.

Deck highlights:

Medivh's Valet: If you have you're Ice Block up this cards this card has insane value. It has a good stat line and in case of emergency can be
played without the effect for board control against aggro. If you're
facing a lot of weapon classes replace it with Acidic Swamp Ooze.

Flamewaker: This deck has 16 spells not including ones created by Kazakus and discover effects. You will almost always get value from the ping
effect. It has an ok statline to be used as a soft taunt against aggro. Can be replaced with Brann Bronzebeard to utilize the discover effect cards.

Cabalist's Tome, Ethereal Conjurer, Kabal Chemist, Kabal Courier will refill your hand with high value spells. Once in a while you will discover  that Curse of Rafaam against a Freeze Mage.

Win conditions:

This deck has several win conditions: Medivh the Guardian will fill your
board with beefy minions, there are some burst cards like Fireball and
Firelands Portal. And Ragnaros the Firelord.

You also have the upper hand in fatigue game since most of the hand refill
cards are discover rather than draw. Shuffling your Reno back into the
deck is a very powerful play in fatigue.


Deck combos:

Reno Jackson+Manic Soulcaster against aggro/midrange. Kazakus+Manic Soulcaster against heavy control. Inkmaster Solia + Flamestrike/Firelands Portal. Medivh's staff works off spell's adjusted mana cost, it will summon a 1/1 if you play a spell card after playing Inkmaster Solia.

Mulligan:

Against Aggro: Volcanic Potion, Arcane Blast, Babbling Book, Frostbolt, Flamewaker, Forgotten Torch, Doomsayer 

Against Control: Arcane Intellect, Cabalist's Tome, Discover/Refill cards.  

Possible replacements:

Inkmaster Solia -> Sylvanas Windrunner

Flamewaker -> Brann Bronzebeard

Medivh, the Guardian -> Archmage Antonidas

Ragnaros the Firelord -> Ysera
