Decklist spotlight: #1 Legend Reno Mage by Abar

Choosing not to follow the Freeze or Tempo archetype, NA player Abar hit #1 Legend with a Reno highlander build.

Both Freeze Mage and Tempo Mage are incredibly strong in Old Gods standard, but they are far from the only viable builds available to Jaina. Abusing the power of [card]Reno Jackson[/card], ladder player Abar has reached the pinnacle of the Legend rank with this highlander Mage deck.

Abar goes very in-depth about his card choices, match-ups and mulligans in a reddit thread here, which is a highly-recommended read if you want to understand the intricacies of this complex deck. According to the author, while the deck struggles against Zoo, it boasts favorable win-rates against other top decks such as N’Zoth Paladin, Miracle and Deathrattle Rogue, Patron Warrior and Face Shaman.

If you’re feeling like experimenting with something unorthodox and challenging to play, we strongly suggest you give this Reno Mage a try!
