Ice Block Toggle

Cancels your cast and blocks, then drops the block if you press it again. Ice Block clears most debuffs, so getting in and straight back out is often the point.

Where to paste this

Type /macro to open the macro window.
Click New, choose an icon and a name, then paste your macro body.
Drag the macro onto an action bar and bind that slot to a key.
Use #showtooltip so the button icon and cooldown follow the spell being cast.

Mage macros first, then the rest of the WoW Classic library.

Arcane Explosion by Combat State
Mage
```
#showtooltip
/cast [combat] Arcane Explosion; Arcane Explosion(Rank 1)
```
Casts max rank in combat and Rank 1 out of it. Rank 1 out of combat is the cheap way to sweep for stealthed Rogues without draining your mana bar.
Arcane Intellect (Mouseover)
Mage
```
#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift,@mouseover,help][mod:shift,@player] Arcane Intellect(Rank 1)
/cast [@mouseover,help][@player] Arcane Intellect
```
Buffs whoever is under your cursor, falling back to yourself. Holding Shift casts Rank 1 instead, which is the cheap version you use on a low-level alt you are dragging through a dungeon.
Blizzard and Flamestrike (Cursor)
Mage
```
#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift,@cursor] Blizzard(Rank 1); [mod:alt,@cursor] Flamestrike; [@cursor] Blizzard
```
Drops Blizzard at your cursor, Rank 1 Blizzard on Shift for cheap stealth detection, and Flamestrike on Alt. Three ground spells sharing one key with no targeting circles.
Break Ice Block and Counterspell
Mage
```
#showtooltip Counterspell
/stopcasting
/cancelaura Ice Block
/cast [mod:shift,@mouseover,harm,nodead][] Counterspell
```
Stops your cast, drops Ice Block if you are sitting in it, and interrupts. Coming out of a block straight into a kick is a standard arena and duel play.
Clear, Target and Frostbolt
Mage
```
#showtooltip
/cleartarget [dead][help]
/targetenemy [noexists]
/cast [mod:ctrl] Frostbolt(Rank 1); Frostbolt
```
Drops a dead or friendly target, grabs the nearest enemy and casts Frostbolt — Rank 1 while Ctrl is held, which is the cheap kiting version.
Conjure Water and Food
Mage
```
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=4 Conjure Water, Conjure Food
```
Conjures water on the first press and food on the second, always at the highest rank you know. One key replaces two that need updating every few levels.
Counterspell (Mouseover)
Mage
```
#showtooltip Counterspell
/stopcasting
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][] Counterspell
```
Cancels your cast and kicks whatever your cursor is over, falling back to your target. Counterspell is worthless if it arrives late.
Engineering Grenade (Cursor)
Mage
```
#showtooltip Iron Grenade
/use [@cursor] Iron Grenade
```
Throws your grenade at the cursor with no targeting circle. Replace the item name with whichever grenade you carry.
