Restore Secret Mage. (WILD)

Haven’t We suffered long enough?
Shadow Pirate Priest can literally win on turn 1/2.
Pirate rogue can win on turn 2/3.
DH Pirate wins on turn 3 as well.
Why? Because Secret mage cannot do anything before turn 4, thanks to the totally impartial geniuses at team 5.
So you can forget winning against Even Shaman, anything Pirate, anything Rush or charge, any early treant Druid, anything fast, really.
Revert Kabal Lackey, and give 1 health to Costumed Singer and Flak Mage.

You should really learn to play a second deck already and just move on.

This whole thread is just trolling at this point.

They should remove the this turn clause from Kabal Lackey(not the perfect solution but helps) so you can at least still get him down turn 1.
They should revert costume singer when he rotates(you would have to wait for March/April but it is wat it is)
Flak Mage has no reason for a buff he has appropriately stats to have an effect

Flak mage cannot survive beyond one turn in today’s Wild game, and neither can Singer, but I rather agree with what you say. I’m no card designer, and I only see the problems with playing the deck. I am happy to defer on imagined remedies to those with more experience.

Nah, similar to other broken decks like discard warlock people have suffered enough against that bs.

I feel your frustration! The early-game dominance of Shadow Pirate Priest and Pirate Rogue is rough, especially when Secret Mage struggles to get going before turn 4. It can feel pretty overwhelming facing decks that explode so fast. Reverting Kabal Lackey and giving a bit more durability to Costumed Singer and Flak Mage would definitely help even the playing field and make the early game more manageable. Here’s hoping for some balance changes soon—Secret Mage deserves a fighting chance!

People just need to learn the purpose of Wild: playing old decks.

I agree, which is why they should never have nerfed anything to begin with. the deck in question was hardly dominating the meta, and if reverted, It certainly would not now.

hope they revert the kabal crystal runner buff (+1 attack) then

Fairr. Even with Orion out already secret mage just can’t survive all on her own. I think more secrets just isn’t the answer, either we gotta dial back and use it as a secondary strat to smth else or… hmm how relevant is secret paladin in comparison to secret mage?

With all respect.

No.
Blizzard should really expand on secrets probably resulting on an big revamp by the simple fact that they are one of the most interactive mechanics in the game.
It is okay in some classes having the secret synergy but not really okay on the entire thing belong to only to some classes.
