-4 rating? That’s harsh. Are you guys trying out the deck before rating it?
Personally, I don’t like how this deck list looks, either. I hit Legend today with Solegit’s list, and compared to that one, this deck has -1 Giggling Inventor, -1 Kalecgos, -2 Fireball, +1 Khadgar, +1 Acidic Swamp Ooze, +1 Harrison Jones, +1 Snip-Snap.
Snip-Snap synergy with 1-mana Zilliax is interesting, but the bigger change is adding weapon removal. I already beat Rogue and crush Warrior and Paladin without weapon removal, so the weapon removal is for… Overload Shaman? It seems a little suspect to me.
If someone hit high Legend with it, maybe it’s good, but I don’t like the decklist on first impression.
I saw the Master’s, but Specialist format is a whole different beast compared to ladder. Freeze Mage’s worst matchups are vs. Hunter and Shaman, but Hunter struggles in Specialist format and Shaman is just not viable, so it makes sense to specialize your deck vs. Mage, Rogue and Warrior in Specialist, since that’s pretty much all you’ll be facing. Ladder has a ton of Hunters and plenty of Shamans, by comparison.

Yeah, I would also go with SoLegit’s build to be honest, I think he has most experience when it comes to Freeze Mage in this expansion.
Maybe he was facing a lot of aggro shaman,as Kripp said “if your doom hammer gets oozed, you looze”
Plus apx played with khadgar in his freeze mage, I think any deck that runs conjurers should also run khadgar by default.
If you check both Apx and Dog’s list from masters tour they cut fireballs, I can totally see this list doing well on ladder
