all options are bad, none of the secrets complement your current situation. you get a mediocre secret, which does help, but you’d rather have had a secret which is guaranteed to be good from your deckģ.
you get the perfect secret for the situationĢ. While it does add some randomness to the equation, 3 things can happen at that point:ġ. Overall, I think arcanologist is still much better, but that card was busted, so there’s potential for this card. while arcane keysmith grants you 3 random options, arcanologist draws you 1 at random, but from your deck, which usually are good secrets. arcanologist thins out your deck by 1 card, secrets are quite cheap and you wouldn’t want to draw it later in the game arcanologist can be played on 2 with a better body, and allows for a turn 3 play +you get to choose from 3 secrets instead of drawing 1 in your deck without control over which one (although you can just limit the secrets in your deck to good ones) +it’s worth around 4,5 mana (2/2 body = around 1,5 mana, ofc secret is worth 3 mana (although it’s random so there’s an argument to be made on if a random secret is worth 3 mana)) +it creates a secret instead of drawing it, meaning you’re less likely to fatigue (but at that point if your opponent isn’t dead yet as mage, you’re not doing so well) Or Spiteful Summoner Mage if that will be a thing, since you could technically run Secrets without flooding your deck with low cost spells.Ĭompared to arcanologist it might be a little bit worse It should fit well into a minion-based Mage build, maybe even Big Spell Mage, since the deck doesn’t have lots of good options in the 1-4 mana slots.
I don’t think it’s as powerful as some people are saying, especially since Ice Block is rotating out, but it’s good. So, as you can see, the card has its obvious upsides and downsides. Not to mention that one of the advantages of putting Secrets into your deck with Arcanologist was that you cycled through your deck faster + could put only one or two specific Secrets into you deck and always get one of them. If you don’t get a powerful Secret, or your opponent plays around the one you get well, you can actually lose the tempo. There’s also a fact that a 2/2 body on Turn 4 is very lackluster. Ice Block is probably the only one that was good enough to put into your deck (slower build) even if you had no synergy whatsoever, and it’s rotating out. Most of the Secret synergies are rotating out. Tempo Secret Mage was a thing thanks to the cards like Medivh's Valet or Kabal Crystal Runner. The problem is that Mage Secrets were rarely played by themselves, without other synergies. They aren’t all super powerful, but the chances are that you will see at least a single good option depending on the deck you’re running it in. On the other hand, you don’t have to put Secrets into your deck and you can still play them, which means that you can play it in a minion-based deck. The chances to discover a specific Secret don’t look amazing – it’s only about 37.5% after Ice Block and Potion of Polymorph leave Standard (assuming no new Mage Secret – if something new gets printed the chance goes down by a few percent). But even better, because it costs 1 less mana. It’s a bit like playing Arcanologist + the Secret you drew right away. While these are parameters are definable here, it is best to do so in the card pages where this data page is used instead to prevent information loss from automatic import, since automatic import does not support these parameters.Looks like a powerful card on the first glance, but let’s analyze it a bit further.

The new description format for the tables, which hides all lines but the first until the mouse hovers over, can't properly cope with that.
