this is a guide for Fire archmage wizards only!

1v1 is one of the harder thing to do in pvp specially if you are an archmage wizard...you will be facing a lot of different type of people meaning they will have different strategies.This guide will help you handle your deck set up and what to expect when you enter 1v1. Any suggestion will be appreciate since this is my first guide

1.0 Gear:
before i start showing you my pvp gear here is the question i want you to ask yourself: do you prefer higher critical rating or do you prefer high universal resist?
I myself prefer high universal resist because you cant always hit with critical and with a higher resist you can live longer

Hat:firestarter's hood

Robe:Horned vestment available in dun dara from Lewelyn! (you must be a legendary artisan to be able to craft this robe )

Boots:Firestarter's boots

Sword:Unkind axe of winter from the raven pack( any other sword that gives good block rating is good)


Athame: courtly dirk(legendary artisan) (available in the wild from Shane MacGobhann(Toadstool Village )

Ring:Stellar signet(grandmaster artisan) (available in cl)
remember the question i was asking early? well this is the gear i prefer with higher universal resist... here is the status: ps:if you have a 15% resist pet your universal resist will be higher than mine since my pet only have 12% resist I:.

Status:

this is the gear i prefer to use in 1v1
now, if you prefer higher critical rating you can craft this hat:

Hat:knightly helm( also available in dun dara from Lewelyn)

Status:

once you switch hatch you will lose 5% incoming heal,1% accuracy, and some of your universal resist.

1.1 Using your training points:
From lvls 1-80 the total training points you get is 37"""You should be very careful consider how you want to spend your training points""" you can buy them back from Mr. Lincoln in Golem Court and spending Crowns "" only if you need to""...Now lets get starter on what spells you should train for 1v1:

Infection:

Location: Mortis, the Death Tree.... (cost 1 training point)

Weakness:

Location: Ravenwood from Arthur Wethersfield ( cost 3 training points)

Infallible:

Location: celestial"'Star School Trainer "" cost 1 training point""

Satyr:

Elemental blades:

Cloak:

Location:Diego the Duelmaster "" cost 1 training point""

Colossal:

Location:Sun School Trainer"" cost 5 training points""

Tower Shield:

Location: Ravenwood""Lydia Greyrose"" cost 5 training points"""

25 training points needed to obtain these spells However, if you want to train other spells feel free to do so


1.2 Deck setup:
now this is the hard part when you start making your own strategy. First, how you want your deck to be? a control deck( having control of the battle) or a defense deck( keeping yourself protected)or both. My deck is set up for both but its up to you to understand your deck and handle it, One advice: never in your life enter rank pvp with a new deck set up! thats why we have the practice arena to test our new strategies and new deck set up.Once you learn how to handle your deck you should be ready to do rank matches ""How do i know i'm ready to do rank matches?"" easy question: do you keep losing when you enter any match in the practice arena? if so then your not ready but if you keep winning and winning then your rdy . This is my 1v1 deck set up, i got to rank 1200+ with this deck"" you may use it if you want to""just keep in mind to do some practice matches before entering rank pvp with this deck.
If you running a balance or life mastery take out sunbird and put scorpion or leprechaun in main and side.

1.3 Amulets:
Let me show you guys the amulet I wear first
Now you probably thinking why i'm wearing this amulet? well, i got my reasons why ^_^.. First, i'm an old time player and back then i didnt need any mastery to pvp with. Secondly, i can survive any match without a mastery . Okay lets get starter on what amulet you should wear" Here are your choices"" A: LIFE....B: balance....C:MYTH... AND D:CHOKER ;D :P...
Life mastery:
quick heal

Balance mastery:
quick reshuffle

Myth mastery:
EarthQuake is good against those people who love to attack you with 100 blades

Choker:
2-30 weakness :D
Keep in mind you can train leprechaun, sandstorm,scorpion, troll, frog so you wouldnt waste your blades using your own school spell against your opponent minion .

2.Pets:
What talents are you looking for? Thats the first question you should ask yourself...Many people prefer a SPUD pet( spritely,spell proof, defy, and unicorn) but in my opinion there are other good talents that can replace unicorn ^_^. For instance, may cast tower shield, may cast balanceblade, fire dealer, may cast fireblade, disarm, and much more...In this case here is my first perfect pet Every time i hit with a spell or my sword my jinn cast a balance blade on me" very useful when you doing 1v1 or team matches. Dont give up if you pet keep getting a selfish talent at teen/adult/ancient/ epic" All the talents are random and they cant be predictable" Good luck making your perfect pet

2.1Conclusion
If you can handle your deck, you can be successful in 1v1. Practice and practice will help you become better"If you lose dont be sad, be happy because now you have a new goal to accomplish and that is... Understanding what mistake you made during your match and what can you do to improve your deck set up""
Thanks for reading guys....

Hey Jesse. Very nice guide!
Although for me, I use different boots and to give me more critical block. 108 block may not work well, especially against other fire wizards. 158 critical block to storm may also not be enough, since their critical block can reach up to 250.
However, these are just my suggestions, so maybe try it out, and see if you like it.
