This deck basically can beat Heroic Drakkisath without worrying about the RNG of the cards he plays. The only thing you have to do is mulligan for Deathwing.
Once you have Deathwing in your hand, you just stall and remove any minions he plays until he plays Mindgames which should happen around turn 4-5. Mindgames will pull Majordomo Executus from your deck, you play Deathwing, clear his board and turn him into Ragnaros, putting him on 8 HP and removing all his armor. Next turn you swing for 12 and kill him.
Drakkisath's Command is the only thing that can shut you down after playing Deathwing. To prevent this, you need to set up a Spellbender before playing Deathwing or you need to have baited him to use it on a Mirror Image or Mirror Entity. Otherwise you have to hope he doesn't have it in his hand.
Most of the spells can be swapped out with whatever you have available. You just need 28 spells and the 2 minions. The only exception is probably don't run Counterspell because that will just get Mindgames countered and won't actually protect your Deathwing from being killed.
So EASY! Thanks for this.
Okay, this boss fight is total BS in heroic mode. I've tried it multiple times with various decks, and I don't see any plausible method of going toe to toe with Drakkisath. Seems like the only viable way to beat him is to totally cheese him with a trick deck. To that extent, this deck is great because it has a very clear path to victory: draw Deathwing (and pray Drakkisath can't clear it), stall until he plays Mind Games, and win. It's pretty much all RNG, which doesn't require any skill--just time and patience. So when you've got an hour to kill, turn on the TV or fire up your Netflix queue and rinse and repeat until you get the job done!
On my third try, Had dwing in my hand, drew a spell bender (yay) and played that. He did not T1 mindgames however. thought it would be good still. Stalled a little bit, and on T3 I draw into Majordomo, killing my chances of winning :p. Will update when I beat Drakkisath.
6th Try got spell bender and dwing in hand, he played Mindgames on T2 and won from there :) Great deck dude!
After ten tries i finally did it!!!its a good strategy if everything falls in place at the right moment!!!
While this deck is ingenious, it doesn't really reduce the rng, it just makes the games resolve faster.
So I just found out the beauty of this deck. He never even got to play Drakkisath's Command. I just wait for the Majordomo, play Deathwing like it says to, he pings for 8 and I smack for 12. Literally the easiest game ever. I'm so happy with this deck I registered for Curse just to log in and comment how awesome this deck is, and I didn't even use Spellbender. I did +1 Ice Barrier as a fail safe and +1 Effigy.
awesome Deck, 1st Attempt, got amazing RnG and got a turn 2 kill!

This deck is too expensive for a simple Heroic Boss.
Is Heroic "simple" for you??? You should find a budget deck instead if you're looking for a deck to beat a "simple" heroic boss. Only thing needed expensive is like Deathwing and maybe ice block, but others are able to substitute.
50/50 chance and his mind games pulls my deathwing every fucking time
Edit: 10 or so tries later and I finally got the combo EZ
I actually won after he drew my Deathwing because he had to discard all his cards. From there I was able to defend myself, with a lot of luck...
Seriously......F*&^....this....boss. Tried all the top decks on here and it's an RNG fest. Been trying over an hour with all these decks. Just set up spell bender into death wing.......What happens ? He usesDrakkisath's Command twice and destroys my decoy and death wing. FFUUUUUUUU
I need a break or my computer might get thrown out the window.
25 tries meanwhile.
This deck is pure RNG.
Hope to get Deathwing, hope to get him mindgames hope to get him not the 10 DMG spell.
1 of 50 probably.
I'm at about game 19. Out of 19 games only once was I able to use DW once after he pulled Maj, and he immediately kills it.
Step 1 - You need to get DW into your hand and NOT Maj
Step 2 - You need to clear board until he uses mindgames
Step 3 - You need to continuing clearing board until you have Counter or Spellbender
Step 4 - Play DW and hope he doesn't have 2 command kills, and make sure you can take 8dmg.
These are not fkn easy steps. Definitely an easy win if you can pull this off, but pure RNG.
Any replacement for Deathwing? Kappa
After a couple of tries I got the perfect combination of Deathwing and spellbender in the mulligan. Spellbender on turn 1, Deathwing on turn 2 after he played mind games, Deathwing to the face on turn 3, WIN.
It works. I got the win in a few tries. Thanks!
Finally, finally, beat this guy last night with this deck!
Final tally before victory game:
24 games dead before drawing deathwing
4 games - I drew deathwing but he never cast mind games
Honestly you should just restart if you don't get Deathwing in the mulligan. Saves a lot of time.
That's a valid tip. I would have... but I was so optimistic I would draw him eventually... so so optimistic... and so foolish.
I will still have nightmares about this encounter for years, but thanks for the decklist that finally beat it.
