Recently discovered that healing is a good thing, even for a Dark mage. Otherwise, a single Bleed token can really ruin your day.
Changes:
-[mwcard=DNC15]2 x Skeletal Minion[/mwcard] - 4 are usually enough, as I tend to switch to Sentries or Deathfangs if the Minions are dying too rapidly
-[mwcard=DNC14]1 x Skeletal Knight[/mwcard] - it's powerful and a good guard, but a little expensive in this format; Sentries are usually sufficient in this role at a much lower mana cost
-[mwcard=FWI05]1 x Mass Sleep[/mwcard] - I keep thinking this would be a good idea in the right circumstance, but 15 mana full action at range 0-1 when you'd get maximum effectiveness out of it is just so rare, and 8 sbp's is a TON to spend on a spell you almost never use - not to mention somewhat "unfun" for your opponents!
+2 Siphon Life - A little healing, + direct damage at the same time, can go a long way; can be used to finish an Usslak (bypassing armor) or to swing the match when you and your closest opponent are both on the verge of death and it's either him or you!
+[mwcard=MW1I08]1 x Drain Life[/mwcard] - When Siphon Life just isn't enough! (12 mana usually isn't a problem when it's late in the match and you really need to heal; 16 mana for [mwcard=MWSTX1CKI01]Drain Soul[/mwcard] might be a little too much to ask, though; and Drain Life costs 1 less sbp)
+[mwcard=MW1E32]1 x Regrowth[/mwcard] - Very handy when you find that you've taken 10-15 damage early in the match or are Bleeding out; could also be used on Malacoda in a pinch
+[mwcard=MW1Q19]1 x Mage Wand[/mwcard] - Useful for so many things, like Reassemble or Siphon Life or Evade or Dispel or Force Push/Wave or Teleport. Whatever you need, on a stick! And since Dissolves/Crumbles are less popular in this format than in Arena death-matches, it's reasonably likely to stay equipped, too.
