Gameplay against a KazaRaza Priest: https://hsreplay.net/replay/59BJ6XmocB5jdo8QDEiYpV
It shows, that the deck is strong enough to win against a control deck in the late game! Still if you have a bad opening hand, as I had in the replay.
Mulligan Guide:
Mana Wyrm is a really strong 1 Mana card. Try to get it with Arcanologist or a 2 Mana spell like Primordial Glyph for a brilliant start. You can also keep Arcane Intellect and Mana Wyrm, if you have The Coin.
Other options? Kabal Lackey is a great choice in combination with a secret. My favourite combo for turn 1 is Kabal Lackey with Frozen Clone. Early board presence and two minions draw for 0 Mana...that's insane!
You can also keep two 2 Mana cards, if you have The Coin on your hand. Arcanologist and Medivh's Valet or Primordial Glyph for example. That is much better than the risk to draw some secrets or 4+ Mana cards.
NEVER keep secrets on your hand, if you don't already have Kabal Lackey. Also don't keep cards with 4+ Mana.
Play The Coin if you need it for the early game. Otherwise, keep it for Archmage Antonidas. You get also a free spell from Mana Bind, Burgly Bully and a cheap spell from Primordial Glyph for Archmage Antonidas.
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End is a crazy card. I love it, because it saved me so many games which were already lost! Don't play it, if you control the match. Play it if your opponent controls the game and you think, that you will loose without him. He will change everything with some luck!
The idea behind the deck:
Secret Mages had often the problem to running out of cards. I tried to create a Secret Mage with enough card draw! You have Arcane Intellect, Arcanologist, Frozen Clone, Primordial Glyph, Mana Bind, The Lich King and sometimes also Yogg-Saron, Hope's End to get enough cards.
Thanks for your support and I'm glad to hear your feedback!
replacment for lich king?
He fits great into the deck. 8/8 Taunt and he gives you really strong spells. You can try Alexstrasza or Frost Lich Jaina as a replacement :) but i don´t think, that they are equivalent.
Yes, good idea! You can try Ysera too, but she might be too slow for that deck. Because she costs 1 more Mana than The Lich King and has only 4 attack. Maybe also try Arcane Giant for more tempo :)
Yes, that is right! It´s really similar to the idea behind The Lich King, just a bit slower. Maybe somebody will try Ysera as a replacement for The Lich King and can tell us if it works.
Fun deck :)
Thanks! I´m glad to hear that :)
