any1 has any tips in freeze mage?
trying to learn to play it, but its so damn hard

It's really not that hard to play. Mulligan for card draw that's what you want first and foremost. Try to do the math to see if they can pop your iceblock before using board wipes. If they can't pop you that's an extra turn you can save your board wipe on. The only real tricky part with the deck is turn 4, sometimes it's really smart to drop a doom sayer on turn 4 to prevent their 5 drop. Don't waste burn on killing creatures the deck does a finite amount of damage you can't afford to waste it. Also if the class you're up against doesn't have healing or hero abilities that increase surviveability you may not need straza to win, don't hesitate to burst them down.

Freeze mages hardest matchup is control warrior. You must remove the armor smith if played otherwise the warrior will gain too much armor and winning the match becomes impossible.

I run Freeze mage with Pyroblast but running it with Archmage Antonidas offers the possibility of having more potential damage.

no really card games are like 90% luck 10% deck strategy. I could beat the best hearthstone player in the world if i could get the right cards lol. no skill

Let's be serious

Freeze is a great deck, Play slow let them throw cards out & keep removing them until you have a good lethal option.

I've started and it's going well, but I'm not very high because I haven't been playing much.

On a win streak from rank 17 to rank 14.

The meta is super slow. Largely in part to the new naxx cards. Sludge belcher and the taunt ghoul mainly. Even loatheb.

A lot of warrior druid and shaman on my end.

Ive been running a handlock build with sludge belcher and eggs. So much board control with big threats and sludge belcher fits the deck since it baits out a lot of removal and lets you sit at low hp like the deck wants to be doing. I haven't tried loatheb in handlock yet but wouldn't be surprised to see him added since he can protect your fatties from removal

 

[zaf]

Oh, you'll also see more midrange hunter passed ranks 10. Probably pally too

Unstable Ghouls aren't common except in control warrior though.

Yep, Belchers are great in Handlock.

Yeah, I'm playing midrange hunter atm.

 

[zaf]

Yea the unstable ghouls giving warrior a lot of synergies. So much armor sometimes lol

Slow

Big Grats dude, my warrior is still at ~280 wins :/ ... I only play 3-5 games each day ... add me Frostbarrier #2855

I play on EU though

 

[Frostbarrier]

Haha I barely tried the new warlock Zoo (not big fan of rush style decks tbh) and people started raging on me

 

[Doombawkz]

Hmm...
Lots of stuff, and I wanna remake my expend the hounds deck but I can't until Mad Scientist comes out in 2 weeks.

:/

 

[Jdizzle31]

currently rank 9 and climbing with miracle rouge

 

[Doombawkz]

currently rank 22 and not climbing at all. Maybe I'll get to 20 for my free card back so I don't have to bother anymore

 

[Undeadjim]

Currently bouncing between 11-10. Some of the RNG i've hit recently makes my blood boil

Edit: On the bright side however I'm getting used to the current meta somewhat so it does give me high hopes of reaching legend this season albeit maybe towards the end as the ranks become easier to climb.

 

[Jdizzle31]

my goal is to get in the top 100 legend this season, highest finishing spot was 200 and somthing

 

[Undeadjim]

I honestly just want the card back, only one I have liked so far. It is fun playing constructed though although sometimes rage inducing I take a break when that happens. You on NA or EU btw man?

 

[Frostbarrier]

I never reached legend, but I was wondering, does reaching legend 100 for example means YOU ARE the 100 and you have to keep fighting for your rank? so if you haven't played for 2 days you will find yourself rank 1500 for example? I really don't know how things work here

[NoobHunter420]

@Doombawkz is your battle id Bane?

 

[GeoffBedlam]

This game is more infuriating that Injustice online.

At least with that I had options and could actually fucking try defending myself.

With this I just get shut the fuck down at EVERY turn.

Is this really all this game is?

I doubt you could drop that much but yes, people can pass you up and knock you down in rank if you don't play. Like you can't get 100 a few weeks away from end of season and just quit. You will probably be like top 500 at best, if not less
