This is the BEST EXCAVATE Payoff Card!!! | Secret Mage!

[@MrParadux]

The Death Knight had effectively 65 health. It is insane that something like this is possible and even more insane, that it wasn't even enough to survive while clearing the board over and over.

[@CreeCore94]

I tanked the warlock snake combo with Reno Blood DK lmao it was crazy cause at the end of the game I had like 3 points of health.

[@Daniel-yu9pg]

I had a challenge that said “do 65 damage to enemy heroes” did it in one match against dk and still lost

[@musicfortheobscure5123]

I wish more hearthstone creators added losses if all I see is winning it kinda kills the tension

[@SanityDrop]

3:18 played 18 mana worth of minions/secrets at turn 5 6/6 (6 mana) 3/5 (4 mana) 2 mage secrets, drawn (6 mana, 2 mana)

[@xing378]

9:57 good panic reaction, i would fuck it up 😂

[@StormGuard92]

Chump, grace us with more frequent VODs please :) these smaller compilations are very entertaining, but with 2 drawbacks - you almost exclusively post wins only , so that eliminates any plot twisting expectations, and also everyone would prefer to watch you for a bit longer than this .

[@frozen_spider]

This! Pleeeease?

[@Semelem]

I made a secret mage deck similar to yours and I’ve been having a lot of fun with it. I was only playing Hunter until now

[@Dalinzir]

Crazy that we only got to see the power of contract conjurer in one game

[@vientelaajihana]

It's too slow

[@TheBiomedZed]

Why not add the mage titan in this deck? Super flexible and can add on additional secrets for you.

[@teenymumboshow]

I played a variation with Norgannon, it's too slow

[@EakinSnyder]

Happy to experience this one vicariously because there's no way I'm crafting double Reliquary Researcher to experiment with excavate mage, and I can't imagine it's worth it without that payoff

[@kylehernandez9348]

Any suggestion for the replacement of Orion? i dont have that card

[@ivimarty]

love playing this deck but i noticed when playing it myself that it lacked card draw. went ahead and tossed in two arcane intellects to help with some draw

[@Max_VF]

Im just thankful that apparently every excavate is the best one

[@frozen_spider]

Except warrior

[@gabrielsinger79]

Been playing a lot with this deck recently and after a lot of games I feel this deck suffers from a lack of card draw that makes it very hard to win with in long drawn out matches unless I get very lucky.

[@TripSssss]

You're not a chump, you actually pretty cool man

[@jordanhuguet82]

Hey Chump, would you be interested in trying a lightshow/rewind/STARGAZING excavate deck? With stargazing, it's actually very powerful, especially with ramping up Rommath.

[@elisha-doa-lereigh]

Why haven't all the classes received a class specific legendary excavate minion? I'm having Galakrond flashbacks

[@korpiz]

I having really good results with this, just got from diamond 5 to diamond 3, hoping it will get me to legend. Plus it’s so fun!

[@Gavinbelson]

oh you sweet poor young soul

[@maxb2244]

I thought DK had the most powerful excavate reward? Or was it Warlock? Titles are confusing me

[@Threeve703]

I have no idea how this deck is supposed to beat aggro paladin or death knight, which is all I see these days.

[@vitormelo3295]

Keep up the good work Chump

[@Anonzs]

This deck made me wonder about the interaction between KT and getting Reno board locked. Does everything just deal 2? Haven't been watching other HS channels like the mythbusters one or the highlights ones, so maybe one of those channels have already showcased the interaction?

[@mistared4021]

KT has that interaction when there are other minions already on board, so he *should* do the same with Reno.

[@barberman2737]

It does treat the board as if it is full. One of the few cards that can actually punish Reno.

[@migmox13]

Having a lot of trouble playing mage in legend. Got to legend no problem with secret/exc. The stats with rainbow overall seem to be decent, however people know how to play against it. Lot of hand disruption cards I'm running into at 5k+ legend. Any other mage deck I play seems to be too slow right now. I've tried your variant here as well, not exactly but same basis. I can't pull out more than 50% with it. Do you think mage is bad right now, excluding rainbow? @chump

[@Aragorn-wc8dr]

Imagine playing kel'thuzad after your opponent played reno!

[@skilldrain7823]

Oh boy new Reno sure is a fun, interesting and very balanced card

[@silva81]

I recently found this channel, chump is very cool I'm subscribed. I just wanted to leave a comment, have a good one🇧🇷

[@zhipengren]

candle but lighter

[@polyjackets8659]

Azurite hawk is Queen Azshara with more steps and less options

[@UranoSteam]

Titans are better than colossals

[@steveluna1627]

​@@UranoSteambut not always, Azshara let's you choose here let's say you needed a board clear but you get hunter titan or warrior titan, then your payoff won't help you at all, while colossal aren't as powerful sincee you can choose another things makes Azshara way useful, considering mage uses spells for everything while excavating makes your deck more slow, at least for mage.

[@duck_t4039]

​@@steveluna1627Azshara can be a dead draw. Azerite Hawk can't

[@ibiddengt5023]

Mage has enough early game that you won't really need board clears, making it a value choice, which hawk wins. Also why not just run both?

[@UranoSteam]

@@steveluna1627 Queen Aszhara is way slower and in some matches tempo is everything

[@Smallpriest]

As a wild player, I love Secret Mage Poggers

[@SN-ym1sv]

It's a cool deck.. but it's so freaking underpowered compared to the other decks atm.. I'm gonna keep playing sif mage

[@xing378]

8:35 Damn these trades are bad, at least miss 2 dmg and lose a 5/4 💀

[@gsuth20202]

Hawk needs to be discover a titan it costs 1

[@asapfinch]

25:54 Perhaps they stream sniped you? Oh wait…

[@Tinil0]

Not that you need advice considering both the fact you are winning and only played this deck for a bit, but my experience with the deck would suggest you should be a bit more proactive about using your frozen touches when they are active. I feel like a large number of my games are won simply through the attrition of getting those out into face as often as possible. But maybe I am wrong and overprioritizing them, who knows.

[@PuniPuniDan]

cool deck

[@mnij3694]

your lack of emotion in the intro is almost haunting

[@pure_ven0m480]

Chump tha goat. Always speaking facts. One could call him.. the throat goat.

[@fumblebee5862]

What

[@saltkeeper44]

🤨

[@hieronymousblackmane9152]

you what mate

[@Arbitrary_Moniker]

Guck guck

[@ninenineninenine407]

Chump, complain about Reno all you want, but DON'T complain about its fun factor when you're playing Secret Mage of all decks

[@polarbsdlkfj]

How do you not BM rope a kid named "GetTrolledXD"?

[@hermiona1147]

Please dont let this become a meta deck, I hate playing against secrets 😭 Also Blood Reno DK is pretty fun, I hit Legend with it

[@michaelbowman6684]

No matter the metagame, no matter how good the decks actually are, I will never enjoy playing against Secret based decks.

[@Stealth-16]

Random secrets made me quit the game.

[@reddog418]

Wouldn't blastmage miner be insane with +spell damage?

[@Fightikus]

Blastmage Miner is not a spell.

[@MrTheBigNoze]

Objection is probably the most infuriating card I've ever played against. At least with Counterspell there are cheaper spells you don't mind losing, but when every minion has a purpose it is really tough to find something you are willing to lose whenever a mage has secrets up. I think it should refund your mana if you card is "removed" since it was never really "played"

[@urosdjordjevic4464]

Nah, if u played MTG, rules are simple, you tap for mana then you try to play a card, so spending mana always comes first, no refund or it wouldnt be fun ;)

[@billkritsas2248]

delulu?

[@hausu3163]

this last mage player is worse than plat players back in the day, legend means nothing now sadly

[@MajorKoenig]

I liked the idea of the deck and did try it for 20 games. It absolutely looses to every current meta deck, so don't bother with it.

[@GunnuX]

How did Blizzard release those two TRASH legendary cards for mage?? Nobody is using it!!

[@settrasurfs1780]

Secret mage is cringe

[@ratlash7438]

this deck needs draw

[@AmniAhmad]

keep complaining while playing secret mage lol, 2 objections on turn 3 i bet ur opponent is having a blast too

[@jultsoni89]

"reno on curve" like you didnt just have the best ramp yourself

[@butt1468]

FWIW ramp refers to cards that give more mana, giving up early tempo to play more powerful late game cards sooner. This deck has no ramp.

[@sirrismendozasunlessrealms5775]

wtf is this meta Mage can literally have infinite Hawk rewards just by playing broken discover cards
