This deck is from Blizzard’s Off-Meta Spotlight #9, here’s what they had to say about it:
Murloc Mage – 66.2% win rate/74 games
Guiyze surfed through the America server, with this build that looks to flood the board with fishy friends from this Murloc Mage minion deck! Wanting to overwhelm opponents, this deck’s awesome drawing capabilities, from cards like Book of Specters and Aluneth, paired with the likes of Archmage Arugal, help to keep constant pressure on the battlefield, all while setting up for a Murloc Warleader or Gentle Megasaur to end the game!
I want Dollmaster to work with this deck so bad. Swapped him in for an amalgam, but he’s just too slow it seems 🙁
Can anyone explain to me how this deck works? I just don’t get it. Whats the win condition? How is this better than Murloc Paladin?
I believe the win condition is to smack the opponent in the face with Murlocs, then close out the game with burn.
Since call to arms is weaker, murloc pally lost one of their big power plays that made them better than mage. This deck does all the things murloc pally does well early, while being able to out-resource your opponents due to the ability to archmage + book to potentially draw up to 6 cards. The frostbolts + glyph also help in getting burn to close out games
