So I’ve enjoyed the expansion thus far, and I’ve enjoyed a plethora of different high WR decks on ladder. However, I’ve never touched Mage since RoS, and I want to get back into the class.
Obviously the decks available for the class right now are insanely expensive, but I was lucky enough to get a Golden Zephrys from pre-order AND I just packed a golden Reno today. I feel like the game is telling me something, and I have the dust to spare to craft the remaining 4 legendaries needed for a Reno Mage deck (Luna, Luna’s PG, Kalecgos, Phaoris).
The deck looks super fun, but is this worth the big spend? Looking for people’s opinions.
Yes it's really a pleasure to play highlander mage due to games differ one from another much more than they used to.
But there might be balance changes that can drop this deck to the ground although it has same win rate as other meta decks (like Warsong Commander is never ever played after nerf, it is even worst pick at Arena).
Yeah, I figure that if they choose to nerf some of the cards in the deck, It will most likely be an Epic or Legendary card and I’ll get a big dust return on it.
I also lack a lot of cards for the mage but I will wait until we know if Blizzard drops a nerfpatch or not. I would not like to craft hilander mage to get it nerfed some weeks later.

So be careful, though in a long run Stargazer Luna, Kalecgos and King Phaoris will see play for sure.

Thanks for the reply!

I'd wait for the next round of nerfs, because it's very likely that Lunas Pocket Galaxy will be nerfed.
You'd get the whole dust value for the pocket galaxy back, but not for the other mage legendaries you crafted.
That nerf should make the Highlander Mage Archetype much worse or even not playable anymore
If you plan on playing mage in the future whatsoever, Kalecgos should be a rather safe craft. Luna and Luna's pocket galaxy rotate soon too.
