So as far as this problem has existed, I’ve personally now have had to deal with it after my swap to Wild.
The issue is mage being able to bounce the Extra turn quest reward into that bird card + brann + Potion of Illusion to farm out near infinite turns. I’m sure there have been many posts like this before me, but i wanna suggest easy fixes that’ll break this combo for good.
- Make the quest reward cost (4)
- Make the bird only work on (6) cost spells and up
- Make the bird a Mage-Rogue [COMBO] card, instead of a Battlecry (risky but interesting)
I know this’ll probably get buried or not looked at, since this isnt my first Blizzard Rodeo, but i figured its worth a shot to at least voice my stake on the matter.

How about make Time Warp not a spell but just called Time Warp.

You can add in Skulking Gheist into the deck. Since time warp mage relies mostly on 1 cost spells that generate other 1 cost spells.

I don’t care about my rank, so if I’m not playing an aggro deck myself, I concede. Even then, unless I can start chipping away early and finish them off quickly, I concede. The only thing I like about the deck is that it tells you from turn 1 that it’s not going to be fun game if your opponent makes it to the quest reward infinite turn. Just concede. That’s my suggestion if you hate going against it.

It’s a stupid deck that must be beat by aggro. I have a 0% win rate against it with all my non-aggro decks. It’s near impossible to disrupt because it doesn’t need all the combo pieces. Even if you burn both Parrots, some decks are running Rommath. It’s just not a fun experience at all.

I ran into about 2 of these mages running Skulking Geist themselves. But im sure they were just trying to deal with the jade druids
Its wild. Wild is full of stupid decks. They should not just single out Mage. Nerf none of them away or nerf all of them away.
Jade Druid is very much annoying.
I have beaten it a few times with Shudderwock Shaman.
You can draw Murlocs and go crazy with Mutanus, Dirty Rat, and Loatheb.
I remember one time I pulled the Loatheb, Parrot, Grumble dance.
There’s some people playing a meme version with Reno Hero and Deck of Lunacy. Really drag the game out.
BTW, Rommath sometimes kills himself.
You never want to be at 8+ cards. Immediately they will Research Project.
I must have the worst luck. I faced 4 quest mages in a row this morning. I kept getting stalled with multiple ice blocks and freezes. Win or lose it’s just a miserable experience.

The nerfs hit today and they have addressed this. They made the spells cost 6 to be repeatable. Thank GOD!!!

Now Time Warp can go back to only enabling meme otks. I used to think the quest was more fun because of the way it was used until the parrot came along and ruined it
