After talking with some friends of mine (ChapterHouse and Entaro_Thomas), we came up with this list, that I managed to pilot to Rank #1 Legend (as of 15/08/2016).
Couple of notable inclusions:
– Daggerfall Mage: playing those cards instead of the Telvanni Arcanists (2 mage and last spot goes to the 3rd Crushing Blow). Daggerfall will most of the time be a 2-for-1 in your advantage. The Tome of Alteration that you get is also better than the average random spell that you get from the Arcanist.
– Nahkriin, Dragon Priest: This card is bonkers. It allows you to play an Odahviing at most 3 turns earlier (if you still have a charge of elixir). The outcome of this play is rather insane: get board control on both lane, draw a card, destroy the opponent’s board. Also very good in combination with Mantikoras to make an insane tempo play on turn 10.
– Desperate Conjuring: Only playing as a 1-of because more would be pushing it (you need to have something relevant on board for the card to work). You can use it on a Mantikora or Nahkriin to get a second Odahviing or even the Iron Atronach. Note: You can Nahkriin + Desperate Conjuring on it to instantly get Odahviing or Iron Atronach.
You can watch the vod of me hitting Rank #1:
PS: I may sound super triggered, rude and salty, but this session (almost 7 hours, pushing for rank #1) was VERY exhausting, and I got some pretty shitty RNG all night long. I am usually very polite !
I am streaming everyday, starting at 10pm EST, right here : https://www.twitch.tv/osblackfall
EDIT 19/08 : Switched the tigers for Fate Weavers, because the meta is filled with control now o/
EDIT 22/08 : Switched back to tigers, meta seems less controly for now !
EDIT 28/08 : Removed 1 tiger for Miraak. Every control deck is playing it now, so we need it in the mirror match up.

Those are 2 different cards. You can’t remove a 3-drop to add a lategame card, it’ll mess up your curve. I play 2 Dawn’s Wrath instead of 1 DW and 1 Indoril, because there’s a lot of silence in the meta right now, and Indoril is very weak to it. Dawn’s Wrath is just a board clear 100% of the time.
Conjuring is not necessary (but strongly recommended). You could switch it for a Fire Storm, or another 3-drop.
I was stucked on rank 8, so I find your decklist. At this time I was without about 15 cards of the list, but created a more budget version (started this month) and played with success until rank 3. So I lose many games in a row, and decided to craft some cards. I crafted 3 Ice Storm (for counter agro), more 2 Mantikoras and Ayrenn, and after it (and with some changes in my deck) I got many win streaks (ended with 20 wins and 3 loses). From rank 3, I hited Legend in about 4 hours (splited in 2 days).
And I’d like to say I loved your deck. Make me really have fun with TES Legends; I feel myself like a Mage in the matchs. That’s is a build I think is fun and good.
I recently got a Desperate Conjuring when was playing the ranked and 1 Odahviing from Arena (I got Odahviing after Legend, so inicially I replaced him for a Expert Atromancer).
My changes in the deck (because I don’t have some cards) is:
– 2 Shimmerene Peddler + 2 Abecean Navigator
– 2 Daggerfall Mage + 2 Telvanni Arcanists
– 1 Elusive Schemer + 1 Breton Conjurer
– 2 Dawn’s Wrath + 1 Moment of Clarity (not tested yet) + 1 Winter’s Grasp
– 1 Nahkriin, Dragon Priest + 1 Shocking Wamasu (good card)
– 1 Miraak, Dragonborn + 1 Senche-Tiger
I got dust for more 1 legendary, so what you recommend? Dawn’s Wrath, Nahkriin Dragon Priest or Miraak Dragonborn? I liked Miraak and Nahkiriin.
Oh, and what is your strategy versus decks with support cards?
Mentor’s Ring could be good in this deck?
Well, ty for share this deck with us!
Ty for hints! I crafted more 1 Elusive Schemer and the Nahkriin (- 1 Breton Conjurer and – 1 Shocking Wamasu). I have 15 dust now : P
Have a good game, friend! If you want add in the game, my nickname is Arkimedes.
If they manage to put 2 fervors in play I lose pretty much always and even with just 1 it’s pretty tough. All my 10 drops + are usually useless in hand in the matchup since the game ends before turn 9
The winrate is pretty decent. If they managed to draw 2 fervors in the top 10 cards of their deck, you’re just shit out of luck, and you can’t do anything about it Been there trust me !
