I was running Adam instead of Nether Fractures, but control is running around a lot more these days in my area.  I may switch Water Elementals for Adams though.

I'm not implying mine is the best, just looks real nice with almost everything either EA or Chinease. :-)

isn't this "played out"

sure, it's a tier one deck. but how about something new.

What your saying is "played out" just as much as Black Ice is.  People always cry'n about Mage.......as if this will be the last time we hear someone complain about mage or as if mage is going away.  It's here.....get used to it!  Maybe you should go ask UDE to eliminate Mage from the MMO, might work right?  Then the TCG could follow allong 6-9 months after.

The OP wanted feedback, not a sniffler post'n his woes up for others.

the deck which even pretend to be the best freeze build should have Hex blades instead of more the scarier,and like 2 mage sets. Should also have 4 gromple,the builds with 2 cards of each is kinda bullshit to be fair.


So the Dirtfarmer's build looks better than anything,but i'd use 3 hex's & 1 mage set instead of 4 more the scarier, and 2 more defiace's & 1 more mage set instead of eye of the storm.

And such variant should be very good in mirror match.

yo homey i ain't crying bout mage, i like mage. what i'm cryin bout is the serious lack of originality going around. this deck is almost identical to Pat Eshgy's Darkmoon Faire deck, which was just an update of James McCoy's from NACC 2000 and E I G H T !!! *&^)!!! there's a TON of cards to be explored. Most players just rely on some previous champs deck because there are too lazy or just not creative enough to come up with something - or - could it be that losing a "game" hurts their manhood? Same old crap. Create your own deck, keep playing it, get your butt kicked, fine tune it, play it some more, etc. Predictability will ultimately lead to your own doom.

When I started playing this game back in march I looked at the last year worlds decks and decks from from recent events.  I decided to go mage due the fact that it was popular and proven.  Litlle did I know, I was about to get myself a lot of flak from local players.  Tiz Life. 

You have a solid point, I just felt it wasn't needed to be posted here.

Actually he has no point. Play what you want to. If the big bad Black Ice makes you happy, so be it.
