I've been running Mage Tricks and it can definetly get to legend. I'm at rank 6 now because I haven't been playing much, but my record with it so far is 15 - 4
Personally I like Undertaker, it makes for very strong openings, which is important.
I like the TideofTime version pretty well. It doesn't have to rely on the combos with the Undertaker and deathrattle minions and the overall synergy of Tides' aggro works a bit better since it is not reliant on powering up Undertakers.
I've run deathrattle Mages as well and find Tides' to be more effective.
Until you have a good collection of good rare and epic cards, I would save dust for those. They will make more a difference in you games that a single legendary.
I recently started playing Mage myself (long time Shaman player - golden) and I would not craft an Archmage Antonidas if I did NOT already have Ragnaros the Firelord. Ragnaros is so much better and fits in a lot of deck constructions.
I farmed a gold Shaman at rank 20. I set a goal for myself at like 10 wins per weekday and 20 per weekend day. I used the first iteration of Nuba's midrange Shaman to do it. With the new Naxx cards, you could build some variant using Haunted Creepers and Nerubian Eggs and win pretty effectively at rank 20. It becomes a grind to do it, but in the end, having gold totems is really nice.
If you don't like, or don't have the Naxx cards, drop out the Nerubian Eggs for Unbound Elementals and the Haunted Creepers for something else you like.
Ancestral Spirit is a good card, but often situational. I've gotten both amazing results as well as it being a dead card in my hand. If you dropped them, you could put in the Lightning Bolts and keep the Gurubashi Berserkers.
If you have Ragnaros the Firelord, you certainly need this card in your deck. Ragnaros works very well in Shaman, and until you come by other cards to make other types of decks without him a finisher, you need to run him.

Is there a decklist for "Mage Tricks" out there?

What is your decklist for your Secrets Giant Mage? I would be interested in seeing it and maybe running it some.

What about when Counterspell is active and a Hunter uses Flare? Does Counterspell stop the Flare from drawing cards, or what?

Ragnaros the Firelord fits in well with many Shaman decks. Here is something using some of the new Naxx spider cards.
If you don't like, or don't have the Naxx cards, drop out the Nerubian Eggs for Unbound Elementals and the Haunted Creepers for something else you like.

Totems are minions. That is why Knife Juggler is triggered by them.

I don't play Warlock much except for occasional dailies. What is a good deck build to utilize Eggs and Void Terror?

OK. Thanks!

Just a simple question to get myself clear - will be possible to craft Naxx cards or not?
Thanks!

Trade the Far Sights for two Azure Drakes. Trade the Faerie Dragons for two Unbound Elementals. Trade the Gurubashi Berserkers for two Lightning Bolts.

I actually have a gold Sea Giant I pulled from a pack ages ago. Should I just dust him?

Whenever I get the dust, I'll a Jones. Let him be the bane of all Nazis! LOL!
