This is the deck i reached legend with this month. It's Psygunther's list i found on Dog's stream. The only change i have made due to matchups is replacing Medivh with Volcanic Potion due to the amount of hunter/murloc midrange pala/shaman that i encountered. I really recommend switching Medivh back if u encounter a lot of mirrors or control/quest warrior.
Edit 1: Eater of Secrets can be a viable tech choice against multiple mirrors & paladin getaway kodo, but i do not recommend it since the purpose of the deck is to be always ahead/have board control.
Edit 2: Eater of Secrets is a viable tech choice. Especially after the rise of murloc paladin and Eye for an Eye , rise of Secret Mages and mages in general as well as hunters starting to tech Explosive trap vs aggro stuff like druid/pirate.
Edit 3: -Polymorph ( too slow, clunky card ) + Eater of secrets
-Volcanic potion ( i seem to be lucky and i get aoe removal from kabal or the other cards + Medivh ( value master - do not be afraid to atiesh face tank if really needed )
Proof of legend : Final boss
Stats : Win rate/no matchups as trackobot cant track my deck
Mulligan guide : ARCANOLOGIST IS GOD ( very good cycle and helps later when u fish for lethal with arcane intellect so you dont draw your secrets ) , Babbling Book, Mana Wyrm, Medivh Valet, Frostbolt ( vs pirate / hunter / murloc pala )
Quick tips : Ice Block > Ice Barrier always because of Medivh Valet
Do not be afraid to play Medivh Valet on turn 2 vs aggro, board control is super important and yes Block on 3 and Valet + Ping on 4 is a play, but sometimes u need the tempo. Think twice before you make this play, but take it into account.
Use fireball even if u have to get rid of a 2-3 minion vs hunter/murloc pala if u have minions on board, i cannot stress over the importance of board control while piloting this deck. I very rarely need Alexstraza offensively to win ( mostly in tough control games ) and more commonly use it to heal myself on 1 hp with iceblock up to gain tempo and save my block.
Meteor is Semi GOD in this deck, so many people do not play around it. If u are behind, think ur trades and pings to get a good meteor. Also, use Meteor even for 1 minion if u have minions on board to keep control.
BOARD CONTROL IS KING.

i dropped medivh for a spellbender, to help counter pally and it has worked well, try to steal stegadon seed
0-4 so far. 3 of them was pirate warrior. What can i do against them?
You are doing something wrong. I've got 8-1 now against warrior. http://joxi.ru/EA4vZOZFwawlem
(Most of em was pirate)
First game I played this deck obliterated a quest rogue. 10/10 confirmed greatest invention of man to date.
I had a 64% winrate from rank 5 to legend - ran 1 hungry crab instead of 1 kabal courier, and ran the polymorph instead of eater of secrets. Very strong deck PSYGunter put together
Blizzard
Is there a replacement to Alexstasza? I have also replaced Meteor with Polymorph and Eater of Secrets with Sorc. Apprentice.
If these are wrong replacements please let me know and help me with them
There never has been, nor will there likely ever be... a replacement for alextraza
This deck looks incredibly fun! Really want to give it a shot.
Edit: Oops. I see now that you said it is Psygunther's list.
If you want to like his too it's here: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/812328-psygunther
This deck lacks of card draw so hard
What about adding Pyros? I know this isn't an elemental deck but Pyros can help against midrange or other control decks right?
Any suggestions for replacing Pyroblast? currently "dustless" at the moment :(
Pyroblast is really good because it can make your medivh get insane value as well as being a great source of burn from hand. If you absolutely can't craft it, you can try replacing it with a Cabalist's Tome to try and discover more burn/make up some lost value, or you could consider card like polymorph, meteor, or flamestrike in order to fight for board control and try to make up for the lost pyroblast damage by pushing minions. Good luck!
How essential is Medivh in this list? Unfortunately I dusted him long ago lol
Thanks for the deck and for the wins :) no bad matchups, won against both control and agro.
This deck has a 70% win rate as long as you don't face hunters. This deck has about a 15% win rate against hunters in my experience. (Fluctuating between rank 1 and rank 4)
Do not play this deck if you're seeing hunters on ladder.
How to beat quest rogue man ?
I loose every game I am so sick of that :@
Quest Rogue is Cancer bro. Chemo Therapy required.
can "Meteor" be replaced?
would this the work at rank 8-9?
