A Good Deck

In my first post, on 10/9/15, I mentioned getting a good card enabling me to make a good deck. From a pack earned in from a Watch and Learn quest, I got Archmage Antonidas, which is the 3nd legendary I have gotten from a pack (and one of the 2 others was Millhouse Manastorm, already dusted). I have the ones granted by BrM and Naxx, and don't get me wrong, Loatheb and Thaurissan are great. While a useful neutral legendary would have been nice, Antonidas is the keystone of the first Mage deck I have been able to put together that I enjoy playing.

I haven't had a lot of luck with the class previously, and maybe its because I haven't gotten some useful cards from packs and been unwilling to craft them. I have no Mana Wyrms, no Sorcerer's Apprentices, and no Goblin Blastmages. 1 or more of those 3 appear in a lot of viable Mage decks. The one I can now play, which I have enjoyed immensely so far at the casual level, is this one: Duplicate Control . I use 2 subs, an Acidic Swamp Ooze for a BGH (I don't have the latter, and I have been able to play the former for its battlecry a few times, while hitting no BGH targets.), and for the Illuminator I run a Flamewaker. I used a Kirin Tor Mage for a bit instead, but honestly neither has really done me much good yet.

The last time I got a Mage Victory quest I ended up throwing it away, but I just finished one with only 1 loss to 3 wins tonight. I like the deck.
