There should probably be a dragon in there somewhere to trigger Cathedral Gargoyle's battlecry...

I don't see how you can use Kazakus in a rogue deck when he is part of the Kabal (mage/priest/warlock).

When are you supposed to use Zephrys the Great amidst all of these duplicate cards?

When I first saw this card art on the card reveals page, I thought Rafaam was using a weapon similar to the t-shirt launchers at sporting events to fire artifacts out into the crowd. Upon closer inspection of the larger card image, I see it's nothing so silly as that...would have been funny though.

Quote from Saphrenia >>

Overkill minions not need to be attack to activate their overkill ability. Please check the video at the buttom, u can see clearly in there, other minions attack to overkill minion, they die and activates overkill.

-Overkill is an ability that activates whenever a card with the keyword deals damage to a character with less Health than the damage dealt during your turn. 

 I am surprised (and mildly embarrassed) that I did not know this. Thank you for being so helpful/informative. The link to the video was a perfect visual aid.

A touching tale. Might I propose one edit? "Desert" is a barren area of landscape. "Dessert" is the sweet ending to that nice dinner. Remember: You'll want more of your mother's [Insert signature dessert recipe], therefore you choose the version of the word that contains more of the letter 's'. Hope this helps.

The art made me chuckle. What a clever goblin, able to pull off the ol' detachable thumb trick. Oh, I guess it's the index finger this time. Plot twist!

I decided to try this deck last week, and over the course of 3 (non-consecutive) days, I have gone 10-0. From rank 20-zero stars to rank 15-three stars without a loss. Best streak I've had in recent memory, so felt like giving some credit/praise here. (I recognize that I'm in low ranks, but 10-0 feels pretty good regardless of rank.)

One change I made:

-1 Houndmaster Shaw

+1 Shieldbreaker

I don't own Shaw, and decided against investing in him at this time. Teched in a Shieldbreaker to remove pesky taunts, and it has actually come in handy.

Why would you build an odd deck without including Baku the Mooneater?

Hey all.

I haven't been instructed to say anything but honestly, at this time, we're not likely to see an Innkeeper update for the new expansion. This may or may not be a surprise to you but what I can say is I'm not happy about this and I know many of you haven't been either. 

Maybe in the future Innkeeper will receive some love and get updated. Unfortunately, I'm not able to put an update out for the client myself or I would. Due to this I've also removed Innkeeper from our navigation, Top Decks from our navigation, and I've removed the daily win rates widget from the homepage. All will be restored if Innkeeper gets fixed.

I saw another exodia mage using a similar trick to this one.  The quest is meant to be beaten with antonidas' fireballs, as the time warp can beat an opposing ice block.  Rather useful, given how many reno mages are running around these days.

You only play the quest for the additional draw? Or whats the point here? A guide would be nice bro

From lots of testing these are the bad cards in the deck, and the replacement options:

Bad: witches brew(too slow/clunky), weaponized wasp(not nearly enough lackeys), thunderhead(need more overload). 

Questionable: fire elemental (too much mana), hagatha(hag is completely up to player preference, double battlecry deep lategame can be suprisingly inconsistently used, and hags spell generation for heals and hex's is great here, however the card gen. already in the deck is often already almost too much value even without hagatha. 

Replacements: questing adventure, beaming sidekick, withstanding apprentice, youthful brewmaster, bodywrapper(good in heavier control style), defender of argus, life drinker, dragonmaw scorcher(prime), zilliax, archivist elysiana(required in control style).

Sidenote: mogu bodyshaper is amazing, the hidden value of getting evolve lacky on it is game winning and surprisingly consistent. (: will release my best version soon 

Definitely, however I highly suggest investing the dust for pyroblast if you plan on playing mage archetype decks frequently. Or if you enjoy this deck. There have been times my opponent has been at 8-10 health turn 10 and pyroblast finished  the job. 

Nobody expects the pyroblast! :D

I have killed opponents turn 4, and I have killed opponents turn 15. It all depends on your card draw, how hard you trade face damage, and what deck your opponent is playing. If you get a crazy good opener and your opponent can't answer to that in the first 4 turns you will most likely kill them. 

Mulligan:
must keeps~
*Kabal lackey
*Counterspell
*Explosive rune
*Ancient mystery
*Flamewalker

-Arcane intellect isn't bad, but you should have no issues drawing cards (especially if you utilize Aluneth).
-Flame ward isn't a bad option, I would only stick with it if you run into a lot of zoo/Aggro decks. The same is said for flakmage.

Coin: Coin is extremely advantageous with your kirin tor mage to get a free secret and a 4/3 minion early. Coin after flamewalker is never a bad option either. If you have a kabal lackey in your opening hand please don't coin into a secret. I usually save coin for Archmage combo, because the board is typically cleared mid-game giving you the upper hand. Or coin into a board wipe if you are getting pressured by aggro.

Mid-game:

The biggest thing about this deck is face damage. If you can plan a step ahead of your opponent and know when not to trade damage, that is key. Swing face as much as possible. Save all your fireballs and pyroblasts for end game finishers. Mid game you will still be playing secrets, the trick is to choose the correct secret for the deck variant you are facing.

Board clears should be no issue with flakmage, flamestrike, flamewalker (which has crazy burst potential so don't play it if you know it will die), and secrets.

Fireballs once again are for face. Only trade using fireball if you know you are going to lose to a creature or if they drop something like zilliax and you don't have a frostbolt. Archmage Antonidas plus your frenzy of secrets generates a lot of fireballs. I used to run Yogg-saron instead of archmage for RNG fun, but it wasn't as effective and sometimes it would cause you to lose.

Ethereal Arcanist is great if you can keep him alive. Iceblock allows his stats to grow exponentially. He can be extremely threatening if you can manage to pull both onto the battlefield and have a steady supply of secrets. Kabal crystal runner is a nice freebie creature.

Aluneth: WARNING- you can throw a game completely if you use Aluneth incorrectly. Aluneth is there if you use up your hand and need a last resort card draw mechanic, or if you can Aluneth into a combo of cheap cards and find fireballs to finish your opponent. Don't play this card if you don't need to, or you will explode from fatigue.

End game:

Hunter will be your most formidable opponent. I have lost a few games by misplaying a fireball (expecting to kill him after my iceblock gets triggered, and then lose to a flare following fatigue damage... damn Aluneth).

Usually I get my opponents to 10-15 health by turn 7-9. Which can be dealt with pyroblast or fireball. Normally they are so preoccupied by your board and secrets they don't expect the face damage. Just focus on keeping up that pressure.

Yogg-saron is an extremely fun 10 drop, but I find archmage to be way more effective. If you don't have either, I strongly suggest using cloud prince and deal 6 damage to your opponent's face.

The other day I faced a Reno Mage. Not only did they iceblock then drop reno next turn for a full heal, they then filled the board with taunts; I still wiped the board and hit them with a ton of fireballs. This deck is super flexible when it comes to dealing damage. If you set yourself up for success, you will do great.

1337% win rate

Given that thunderhead is still a 4 mana 3/6 and that this is a highlander deck, I think it's still quite decent (although I'd include a zap! to make it better).

Body wrapper is too slow and the minion pool is too big.

Mogu fleshshaper is a decent anti-aggro tool and I think it's understandable that it's in the deck since you can't run duplicates of spot removal and AoE. If there are 4 minions or more on the board it's worth it.

Oh and by the way, I doubt the author will ever respond, the deck is from a pro player (ShtanUdachi) but it was not him who posted it here, it was a Hearthpwn mod.

than* for sure xD

This card has bigger brain then 99% of the player-base. 

 The lovely creature inside is: Sea Serpent. A turn two curve option for Wretched Reclaimer.
