New here, any advice on a Mage deck to better my current Level 15 deck.

[Rhysd007 0]

Hi guys, first post so thanks in advance for replies!

My current deck maxes out at around Level 15, and today I've just purchased and competed Naxx. I have also done all but the last wing of Blackrock

 

Can any1 suggest a deck I can make with my current cards to maybe break level 10? The ones listed on here always seem to have 2/3 cards I don't have. btw I have no dust atm but could probably find 200 from somewhere!

I have:

* All Basic Mage Cards
* Legendaries: All Naxx + All Blackrock (excl. last one), Mukla, Malygos, Chromaggus, Majordomo.
* Only one of these potentially key cards:
              Sorceror's Apprentice,
              Snow Chugger,
              Goblin Blastmage.
* Missing spells:
              Cone of Cold
              Flamecannon
              Ice Lance
              Echo of Medivh
              Pyroblast
* Missing secrets:
              Counterspell
              Ice Block
              Spellbender

 

Not sure if that's enough to go on, but again, thanks for any help!

I think you can make tempo aggro mage, also called spell cancer. It's deck focused on gaining tempo in early turns thanks to cards like Mana Wyrm and Flamewaker and finishing things with burst damage. Basci skeleton of the deck is really cheap and it requires only few rares and Flamewaker from more expensive cards. Key engine looks generally like this:

 

2x Clockwork Gnome

2x Mana Wyrm

2x Arcane Missiles

2x Mirror Image 

2x Unstable Portal

2x Mad Scientist

2x Apprentice

2x Flamecannon

2x Frostbolt

2x Arcane Intellect

2x Mirror Entity

1x Counterspell

2x Flamewaker

2x Fireball

 

This is basis of the deck that strong enough to reach legend.

 

Another cheap mage is mech mage, but since you didn't mention how many of needed mechs you own, it's hard to tell you something.

Thanks Geoff,

 

What 3 other cards would you fill that deck with?

I don't have many Mechs btw!

 

Cheers again

I guess the Water Elementals wouldn't hurt and maybe one Flamestrike.
