Orb mage to legend after patch

I’m understand why people don’t want to play the deck anymore after nerfs and sincerely it took me a decent amount of days to deal with the BS done to Sea chill and Connan too. It was really brutal at minimal.
I’m did reach legend with this list.

You can view this deck at https://www.hsguru.com/deck/22472758

The main difference for this from pre patch are 4:

  1. Now it is more invested in coins than before. Since you can’t discount cards with seachill anymore you need to leverage your midgame with then and that is slighty more dificult.

  2. Without sea chill and connan norgannon makes no sense on the list anymore.

  3. Etheral oracle is here now. With the inclusion of oh,manager we have enough spells to make a atleast average oracle turn were you use the spell damage bonus and draw. You can use coins to activate it too if you find yourself in a situation were draw is that important.

  4. Arcane artificer is replacing sleet skater because the meta just isn’t playing those high attack minions at the momment.

Hmm to be honest I am interested with this archetype, I returned to this game like a month ago so this deck was out of reach with the amount of dust I have, however I do have several mage legendaries like portalmancer Skyla from miniset and Sif, do I need to get king tide as well for this deck?

Yes you do.
It is a core card to It and in many cases the only way to cheat something out.
