Suggestion for Burgly Bully replacement?  I was thinking a 2nd Mana Bind.

I wouldn't recommend another Secret as they are generally worth less than their Mana Cost,  the ones currently in the deck are there to enable Arcanologists to give good value.

Try Flamestrike, Mirror Image or Cabalists Tome instead.

I'd run a Counterspell to improve your winrate against quest rogues. If you don't feel like you need to play the tech card, you can go for Flamestrike.

Thanks for the suggestions!  I'll play around and see what works.

Right now, in this form deck is unplayable. I've played about 40 games with it and lost about 30. Somehow, curve is not working. Almost every aggro deck will crash you, and right now most decks are aggro. Mana Wyrm 's are too easy to kill, so even if you are lucky with mulligan, you dont have early game. Arcane Missiles can hit face 3 times and they will be. There is need for more spell damage buff or smthn. Maybe Cult SorcererFrostbolt 's are too powerfull for killing minions like Patches the Pirate, Fire Fly, Jeweled Macaw or Alleycat, so you will be propably ping such minions with your hero power, and just skipping your early turns. Because of aggro dominated meta, you cant get value with such cards like Mirror Entity too. I would recomend to change it for Ice Block, or second Mana Bind maybe. Furthermore, there is serious problem with lack of board clear. most of times you will be searching for it with Primordial Glyph, so you definitely should just swap some Flamestrike it for Babbling Book

IMO Elemental tempo is way more funnier to play, its cheaper and it just works better. I crafted it and finally started to win with mage class.

Sadly that's just luck. However, it will even itself out over time.

Sure, it's a solid minion.

Hero power costs the same amount of mana as Frostbolt, so I don't really get what you're trying to say here. Also, you forgot one thing - you can simply ignore these minions if you have better plays. You play your stuff and let them do the same.

Maybe aggro freeze will work out for you better then?

Yeah, so the guide suggests. I would personally swap the Flamestrike in for the Mirror Entity because it is an anti-control/midrange card.

First off, thanks for posting this deck!

I just started playing Hearthstone about 4 weeks ago and came across this deck after I did the solo adventure and got Barnes. I made a few changes due to limited resources but I have been having great success with this deck. Just hit rank 15 and I'm probably like 15-5 so far. A few lucky wins and a few bad losses but overall I really like the deck. Here are the changes I have made.

Arcane giant for a water elemental.( I found I could often play the giant for 3 or less mana due to the high level of spells I was using and he was a big board presense.

loot hoarder for blood ledgendary.($)

ice barrier for mana bind.(originally didn't have one but I think I'll try it out given all the suggestions for quest rogue).

medivh for archeologist.(seems I can get him on the board late game and the benefit of the extra minions causes great distraction to opponent while I'm burning them with spells)

primordial drake for burgly.(cost and against Aggro if I can make it alive to 8 has been a game changer).

I welcome any and all input to make this a better deck. Thanks!

Welcome to the community and we are happy to hear that you like it. :D Now on to the deck.............

I would keep the Water Elemental's due to their bodies, effect against weapon classes and the ability to be played on curve. Even though you can get Arcane Giant's cost down to three he can't be played as early as Water Elemental. If you do want to include Arcane Giant you can cut the Babbling Books.

loot hoarder for blood ledgendary.($)!

That is a decent enough swap. You could also consider Kobold Geomancer for the spell power but either or is good though.

I would either run the Mana Bind or Counterspell instead of Ice Barrier

You really don't want to take  Arcanologist, she has a great early game board presence and she also draws a card. Medivh, the Guardian is a fantastic card but there isn't enough to really benefit from his weapon. He does shine is some decks, just not this one.

Honestly if you want good AoE then run either Flamestrike or Blizzard. They are cheaper than Primordial Drake and they hit the opponent, not you. :P You are also going to want to keep Burgly Bully. He is a good body and combos well with Archmage Antonidas and the Arcane Giants if you chose to include them.

THanks for the feedback Kingme. I'll try some of those out! I definitely need more AOE because I have ran into basically nothing but aggro hunters at level 15. Same deck over and over. Not having much luck with current deck.

      Hearthstone is taking a bold step into the StarCraft universe with "Heroes of StarCraft: The Great Dark Beyond," a 49-card mini-set launching in January 2025.
      Featuring iconic factions like Zerg, Protoss, and Terran, complete with legendary leaders Sarah Kerrigan, Artanis, Jim Raynor, this set blends StarCraft nostalgia with Hearthstone's gameplay.
      Additionally, Arena Mode is getting a massive overhaul, introducing shorter Normal Arena runs and a high-stakes Underground Arena with a game matching "re-draft on loss" mechanic, giving you the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive, after you lose.
      The year ahead promises 3 expansions, including the Emerald Dream's battle between Old Gods and Druids, a return to Un'Goro Crater, and a Chromie-led journey through alternate realities.

      Hearthstone: Heroes of StarCraft – The Great Dark Beyond Mini-Set  
      Early next year, Hearthstone is going beyond Warcraft and into... Heroes of StarCraft! This special Mini-Set will have a whopping 49 new cards across three themed factions, which show what the StarCraft universe would look like in the Hearthstone Tavern. Each faction is made up of cards that can be used across multiple classes, including an iconic Hero card. 
       Zerg 
      Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Hunter, and Warlock have joined the Zerg! Led by the formidable  Sarah Kerrigan, they will have aggressive cards that win the game by swarming the board. 
       Protoss 
      Druid, Mage, Priest, and Rogue fight for the Protoss Empire. Led by the High Templar Artanis, they will have powerful, high-cost cards that are made cheaper throughout the game. 
       Terran 
      Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior make up the Terran forces, led by the one and only Jim Raynor. They will command Battlecruisers—a special take on the Starship mechanic from The Great Dark Beyond. 
      The Mini-Set will feature a slew of StarCraft units which are sure to invoke nostalgia, as well as the Terran-armored Murloc, Grunty, and new, thematic music. You can chart a course for the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set, launching in January 2025! More announcements, details, and card reveals are coming closer to launch. 
       Major Arena Updates 
      Then, for the first time in 10 years, Arena Mode is getting a major overhaul. With that update, there will be two kinds of Arena to choose from. Normal Arena will be shorter form, allowing you to complete your runs more quickly. Competitive Arena players will be able to play in the higher-stakes Underground Arena, with longer runs and a new feature: Re-Draft on Loss. Re-Draft on Loss means that, after you lose, you’ll have the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive. 
      Ratings will also be added to both Normal and Underground Arena. Normal, skill-based matchmaking will be used for Normal Arena. Underground Arena throws caution to the wind and lets you face off against opponents of all skill levels. 
      This major Arena revamp is coming in the first half of next year. Look out for more details about this update closer to when it goes live. 
      A Preview of the Year Ahead: The Year of the Raptor!
      On top of those updates, Hearthstone has an exciting year of expansions ahead, with much-requested themes, locations, and familiar faces across Azeroth. 
      In the first expansion of the year, enter the Emerald Dream and join the battle between the Old Gods and the Druids of the Emerald Dream for the fate of the World Tree. Things will heat up even more when the Druids of the Flame light up the Mini-Set (releasing earlier than normal this year, during the 32.2 Patch). 
      The second expansion of the year will be Hearthstone’s first-ever sequel: the return to Un’Goro Crater! Join Elise on a hunt for a mythical, lost Tortollan city. When you find it, join the Tortollans in a festival to celebrate the mighty dinosaurs of the crater in the 33.4 Mini-Set. 
      In the third expansion of the year, travel with Chromie through alternate realities to recruit Legendary Warcraft heroes like you’ve never seen them before. Leading to the 34.4 Mini-Set: an epic showdown against Murozond at the end of time!
