I'd probably remove Sleep for Cheetah Speed and Death Link. I'd also consider removing Jinx and Reverse Magic. They're pretty expensive to include. Purge Magic is probably a poor choice in this build. You run so many curses that you'll rarely want to use it on an opponent's creature, and you run enough buffs that you'll rarely want to use it on your creatures. You could try running Enchanter's Ring or Ring of Curses. You run a good number of enchantments, and it can be helpful to make them cheaper. A second Vampirism would be nice so that you can toss one on your Dark Pact Slayer Blood Reaper and still have one for yourself.

The build looks like a pretty good Warlock build overall. I really like to use Necropian Vampiress with Bear Strength due to her resilience.

I'd advise playing the Dark Pact Slayer Blood Reaper against swarms once they kill your Mordok's Obelisk.

I'm not a fan of the Lair because it is fairly inflexible, quite expensive, and a BM can swarm effectively without it due to Quick Summoning. Fast swarms are vulnerable to various things, including zone attacks, Chain Lightning, and mana denial. It's good to have a big threat to supplement your swarm, since that way a single answer won't completely alleviate the pressure on your opponent.

I like Force Push with Wall of Thorns, and that works well with Bitterwood Foxes and Thunderdrift Falcons, since your creatures can chase down the enemy mage through the wall. Keeping your creatures in 2 zones helps a bit with zone attacks, but swarms are vulnerable to other things as well.

I like to open with a pair of Mana Flowers on the first turn, and then follow that up with a Ring of Beasts and an animal. Which animal I choose depends on my opponent. If I'm worried about Mordok's Obelisk, Suppression Orb, and Suppression Cloak, I go with Steelclaw Grizzly. If I want to play a mid range strategy, I go with a Timber Wolf.

Pet is more efficient on cheaper creatures. I use it on Bitterwood Fox or Thunderdrift Falcon. This makes it cheaper, and allows me to play a creature almost as tough as a Timber Wolf as a quick action.

If you can keep her alive, Fellella is amazing. She's much more flexible than the Lair.

I like Iron Golems for my Earth Wizard too, but Earth Elementals are better against Air Wizards and Priestesses, since it gets stunned less. Iron Golem is clearly the choice against the Forcemaster. I'll have to see which makes more sense in my other matchups.

Earth Elemental seem pretty worthless for a Warlord, but that doesn't mean it's a poor creature, it just means that the Warlord sucks at spamming Teleport.

Interesting choices Reddawn. I prefer Mongoose Agility over Evade, since it gives Elusive until my opponent does something about it, rather than just once.

Similarly, I prefer Vampirism over Vampiric Strike. Vampirism is a bit more expensive, but the advantage you can get out of it is much more impressive. Even if my opponent immediately removes it, I get to land 1 hit with Vampirism, and my opponent spent an action and a similar amount of mana to deal with it. If they don't do anything to deal with my enchantments, than I come out massively ahead compared to casting one shot incantations that did the same thing once for a bit cheaper. I'd say that Vampirism is significantly more efficient than Vampiric Strike, since it gives repeated benefit or forces your opponent to spend resources responding.

I'd also rather take a Falcon Precision than Perfect Strike. Sure, my opponent can Dispel it, but it forces them to respond to me or concede a long term advantage to me. Even if you're planning on ending the game in the first 6 turns, the cost of these cheap enchantments is low enough that the advantage of making my next 3 attacks unavoidable for 1 action is definitely worth it. Perfect Strike is only better than Falcon Precision on the Warlock if you are low on mana, and you will win the game if your attack gets through (or die if your attack fails to kill your opponent). It might be better to use a Perfect Strike than a Falcon Precision on a creature that you know is going to die before it gets to make a second attack, but that's not a good enough reason for me to include Perfect Strikes over Falcon Precision.

Necropian Vampiress is amazing against living creatures because she's so resilient. Overall I'd say she's a better creature than Goran against living creatures without defenses, since she'll last longer with less investment, but she's vulnerable to Mind Control, and Goran is better against creatures with one shot defenses. I'm planning on including both in my Warlock build, but opening with Necropian Vampiress in more matchups.

I much prefer Teleport to Charge for my Warlock build. Charge is fantastic for giving a slow creature the ability to move and attack (particularly Iron Golems), but Teleport is much more versatile for repositioning. If I want Fast, I'd rather invest in Cheetah Speed which costs the same number of points to include in a Warlock list and only costs 1 more mana for a persistent rather than a one shot effect (and if you have Enchanter's Ring out, they cost the same amount of mana). The 1 extra die isn't worth the loss of the persistent effect.

I see you include Cheetah Speed as well, but I'd rather run 2 Cheetah Speeds than 1 Cheetah Speed and 1 Charge. That way you can give a big creature like Necropian Vampiress, Goran, or a Dark Pact Slayer Blood Reaper Fast in addition to yourself.

I'm not sold on Sacrificial Alter, but I can see that it could potentially be good.

When I run Battleforge, I like to have many equipment options so that I don't run out quickly. Getting up to 4-5 armor makes your mage much more resilient. Running only a single Lash and no Bear Strengths means that you're melee plan is easily disrupted, and you won't have any strong melee follow up, aside from sacrificing big creatures to Sacrificial Alter.

Mana denial is mostly effective against creature based play, so I'm not convinced that it will be particularly effective against FM beatdown, but time will tell.

I've been considering Necropian Vampiress as well. She's easier to fit into my opening, since she's cheaper, and I agree it would be nice to avoid getting locked out of Lord of Fire by a Warlock.

I'm still in the preliminary stages of evaluating my Forcemaster build. So far my opening is:

Turn 1 (20): Cheetah Speed -> advance 2 spaces -> Battleforge (7)
Turn 2 (17): Force Blade from Battleforge -> Bear Strength or Force Pull -> melee (2 or 6)

I'm wondering if other people will adopt similar strategies, or whether they'll opt for a few Thoughtspores and/or an Invisible Stalker. Against a solo equipment build, Voltaric Shield will help immensely, and I'll need to get some armor against Spinning Slash (and Dancing Scimitar and Invisible Fist/Force Hammer). Kiting her will be extremely difficult, and it's problematical to rely on a single big creature to protect me from her due to Mind Control and Charm. I'll need to keep a Nullify on my creature in order to avoid the FM stealing it.

I'm thinking a Lord of Fire opening makes sense against this type of play. He's incredibly expensive to Mind Control, and I can defend myself against a Mind Controlled Lord of Fire with fire resist. If I keep him out, I should have a big advantage in a damage race (as long as I don't let her keep a Forcefield out), and if she steals him I'll have an enormous mana advantage (upkeep 6 hurts). If she Charms him I can still guard with him, and Sleep is incredibly expensive when I can just Arcane Zap or melee him back awake.

Against a FM backed up with mind creatures I'm less sure. Her control abilities are powerful, and her damage output should be phenomenal. Lord of Fire might be too expensive and susceptible to control. I'll probably have to shoot down Thoughtspores, but I'm not sure if that will be enough.

In retrospect, Arcane Ring is probably a good card to include. It wouldn't be a good card to include if I was going to do the opening I originally mentioned, since it would slow down my mana generation buildup, but for a more flexible opening, it's a good choice.

Arcane Ring -> Mana Crystal gives me more flexible options on turn 2 than Battleforge -> Harmonize. That way I can choose to cast Lord of Fire, Huginn, or Battleforge, and I'm toying with adding another big creature instead of an Enfeeble and a Wall of Fire or 2.
