Shameless self advertising: the Deck on my signature has more Minions than malygos and Barnes but pretty much everything is somethng you'd like to get with Barnes and it works fairly well, i encourage you to try it.
I tried making a deck with Malygos and Archmage Antonidas. Problem are 2-Drops (only Frostbolt and Arcane Explosion) and draw (only Arcane Intellect and Cabalists Tome, which doesn't really draw cards). Maybe if Mage get's a good 2 Mana spell next expansion you could try it.
A deck like Infirc's (one post above me) would be the only viable solution I think.
hello I've been thinking about making a deck with malygos and barnes in and just spells.. but I haven't crafted malygos so I haven't tested it yet.
I'm thinking just stall and keep low manna damage spells till I'm able to play a few at on the same turn as Barnes..
does barnes battlecry not work if you have malygos in your hand and does anyone think it's could work? / could test it?
Barnes Battlecry only works when a minion is in your deck, so it's pretty inconsistent.
Maybe if you play Malygos AND Archmage Antonidas (like Y'Shaarj Hunter plays 1 Savannah Highmane) you can guarantee Value from Barnes. Still not 100% consistent, but maybe at least playable.
