The new hotness being played ATM for Mage and it’s good. You can all thank Theo for the deck he built. I guess the next round of nerfs will include Fireball.
This is pretty similar to the VS list published last week, and they said Malfunction looked promising. Is it enough to get the win rate up to a respectable level? I did think it was funny that an old card like fireball looked like the highest drawn win rate card in the deck last week
It’s better to get it off the discount form what i can tell. I only have a dozen games played with it but it’s got a ton of burst potential. Plays like a hunter but with spells. I didn’t even know the deck was a thing till i was seeing it pretty often and found it was listed in HSreplay under Theo.
I like it. it burns a fair amount from hand, you can tempo, it’s fast, and you pretty much either straight up win or lose.
Long time coming for mage.
I don’t think I played it great. A little rusty with burn since it has been so long.
Yeah the deck is pretty good now. I would like to take this opportunity for my little aha! moment and say that I said so lel:
The 2 mana spell is amazing cheap removal and the discover pool of Spot the Difference got significantly better with the bombs minion and Magician. I played a game where I summoned a magician that my opponent couldn’t clear due to evasive and oh my lord did this minion carry the game.
I’m going to say wait and see.
The cards are new, and it has been some time since opponents had to tech against a fast mage burn deck.
It’s a fun deck nonetheless, and greatly appreciated from a team that has really starved mage for anything but discover as a wincon.
