Because I have yet to craft Spiritsinger Umbra, I replaced that with Countess Ashmore which also synergizes with Royal Guard for the Rush. Plus, if I need a 2nd, I can use Carnivorous Cube to turn one into two! It's still too early to tell for me if my changes are successful, I'm still hovering around 19 and 20 but I have gotten some good runs and got myself out of some tricky situations. Thanks for sharing!
Depends on the meta. This meta... face hunters are all over the place. If the meta changed this Thursday where face hunters get rolled over by decks that slow them down significantly, then you'd know this mulligan guide was out of date. So, yes, all the info you get at the start is what class you are facing but if you are playing rank 10 and above (hell maybe even lower), then you are more likely to see Face hunters.
Again, this may all change with the new cards tomorrow.
Coming up on a four win streak with my mage based on this forum post. Thanks for helping me make sense of deck building in Arena! Having a lot of fun with it.
This deck is so good. Thanks for this. I finally got to rank 9 after being stuck in around rank 15 with other decks and classes. Just added spellbinder. looks real good!
I like the Shadowform card. But is 2 necessary? I'm currently tinkering with swapping it out for the 5/4 Elune card that gives 4 heals to hero. Asked another way: Do you find yourself using 2 shadowforms often at your rank?
Just coming back to share that Freaky's suggestion has dramatically improved my gameplay experience. I haven't been having these dramatic, 5 rank tumbles down the ladder. Instead, I'm holding steady at Rank 15 and slowly improving. Thanks again, man.
Thanks for the input guys. Freaky, I will make those changes right away and get a feel. Last night, I peaked at 4 stars into Rank 15. Then I had a miserable freefall to 18. Ugh. Yes, I definitely feel the inconsistency here. I do see the logic in your suggestions, Freaky. I'll give it a go. Thanks a bunch!
Just created this deck. I feel pretty solid about its performance from 20 to 15. But I have yet to break above rank 15 with this deck yet and it may be due to poor in game choices. Let me know what you think!
Ok, I've been doubling up on minions now so as to get a proper theme for this deck. Again, I want to start slapping faces from the get-go. I'm still holding on to Mind games as it has produced some interesting results, of course it's not consistent. I did notice that it copies from what's left in the deck as the text clearly states. I had thought it copied from all cards in the opponent's deck whether it has been played or not.
My goal with this deck is finish off my opponent by the time I have 6 or 7 Mana crystals. I did have holy fire in my deck but I've used it more for cleaning up minions instead of as a finisher.

I love this deck! I did 2 Dark Possession [/card]and 1 [card]Defile because I like the synergy withSkull of Man'ari andLesser Amethyst Spellstone. But I can certainly see the need for board clear. Instead of 2 Mountain Giant, I went with 1 Gilnean Royal Guard. Why one? Because this deck is so awesome I know I'll face other Locks with it so I also addedHarrison Jonesto take away their skull.

A better way to say that is to suggest swapping out one light bomb for SW Pain *before* the mulligan guide.

This deck is awesome. I haven't touched my mage since beta was over. Thanks for this!

I didn't know that I could use shadow form twice in one turn!!!

Going to test this out. Currently hitting a wall at 13 with my current deck. Thanks for sharing!

In my next edit, I will also consider doubling up on creatures. That sounds quite reasonable, thanks!
