Oh my... That boss is nasty :p
So our enemy is Lord Victor Nefarius with his Wild Magic trick, he basicly draws 2 cards per tur, one of them is card from his deck and other is spell from our class. In his first turn he also gets 10 mana crystals and 50 armor. And do you remember Ragnaros' help in normal mode? In heroic we got only one card from him... Yup, it's hard one.
It is imho the hardest boss in hearthstone history, but I got it, with this deck all you have to do is stalll... stalll... and kill him with fagitue and weapons. Why we use warrior? Because it got many spells that helps us win if Nefarius get them, abusing bosses mechanics is great, I know you love it ^^
It's very nice if he get 10 cards in his hand and don't play any minons, then that means tahat he don't have any and he will not get any more of them, all cards that he will draw will be burned, then you win ^^ How does warrior's spells help us with it?
Warrior spells overview
Crush He can't use it if we don't have any minions, but if we do it will eat 7 mana from his current turn, that means 1 less big creature! yey :)
Brawl Use it I dare you :] he will never get value of this one, another dead card for him.
Mortal Strike He can use this to kill us, yup, but he tends to stack such cards as minion's removal, so as long as he don't have lethal we are fine ;)
Bouncing Blade Another dead card, he will be killing his own creatures with it, probably he will never use it.
Charge If he got minion and he buffs it, it's not cool, right, but if he don't then he has another dead card!
Shield Block 5 armor doesn't do anything, and if he draws a card then we are closer to fagitue ;)
Battle Rage Do it :] Draw more :]
Cleave Do we have 2 minions on board? Not often, another dead card ^^
Commanding Shout Lets draw some more... ;)
Heroic Strike This card hurts, true, hope that he will not get 3 of them and kill you... But chances are pretty low ;)
Rampage Don't leave his minions wounded and we have another dead card ;)
Revenge We like aoe, if he gets it he won't use it, we dont have small minions to kill that way ;)
Slam Did I mentioned that card draw is great ? ;)
Execute Nothing to target, dead card.
Shield Slam Same.
Upgrade! Bad luck, doesn't hurts much, but he can go for face with it. Not dead card.
Inner Rage I guess he might use it... Not sure ^^
To sumarise: 18 spells, 4 draw-cards, 8 removal-cards, 4 buff-cards and 2 direct damage cards... He got about 33% to get card that he might use in some cases, othes are good for us, warrior best class for this challange!
Win Condition:
We want to wait untill he run out of cards and start to takes fagitue damage. Also we got Upgrade! and lot of weapons, use it on Gorehowl or Arcanite Reaper, then clear the board or later go face, thats a lot of damage (1 Upgrade! with Arcanite Reaper is 18 dmg, and 2 of them is 28!)
Tips:
MVP here is Brawl, that card makes this deck working. Lots of removal, use Crush if he have 1 minion on board, Shield Slams with Shield Blocks, and awesome board clear in 8th turn: Brawl and Bouncing Blade.
Battle is hard, but you will get it, that deck works wonders, belive me ;)
GL, and may the rng be with you!
Card replacements/other good choices
Doomsayer board clear, dangerous because he might have some warriors removal, also we can't stop his minions, we don't have Frost Nova, but it's playable ;)
Big Game Hunter Helps with some of his minions, it's also comboable with Cruel Taskmaster,but then he might play cards like Cleave... Playable ;)
Alexstrasza 15 dmg might make the close game our victory ;)
Chromaggus doubles our removal/damage potential, but if he die same turn we play him... also he can kill dragon or two ;)
Inner Rage Execute enabler, 1 dmg for 0 mana, or if somehow we have minion on the board buff and chance to kill bigger dragon
Sylvanas Windrunner good removal with body, kills one dragon and takes control of other
Coldlight Oracle It can speed up the fight, helps you found removal... Not bad, playable ;)
[card]Grommash Hellscream[/card] Also speeds up the fight, finishing combo with Cruel Taskmaster,Whirlwind or Revenge, target for Execute but deals good amount of damage ;)
Many others, if card can give us value in terms of board control then it's probably good choice, try it and tell me what worked for you! :)

Small credit for BoomX9, he suggested me to try warrior, thanks man, it works, #confirmed ^^
Funny note, anyone knows if it is still a case?

WHEW...finally...LOL
I tried many decks and finally passed this trial with this one as my help. NICE Deck! Thank you.
-2 Revenge
-1 Arcanite Reaper
+2 Doomsayer
+1 Bouncing Blade
Revenge was not helping me. Play doomsayer on turn 2 if you have it and stall.
Thank you very much.
make it 6
:)
5 games and no win. must be bad RNG.
By far the best deck I've used for this encounter. Just have to focus on removal, not wasting cards, and armoring up. Great job man!
Danke
I didn't have most of the rares and epics listed since I don't play warrior but still gave it a go with the cards I did have.
Got him in the first attempt with this deck. Rampage, Inner Rage, Charge and Kor'kron Elite were mostly saved for face damage once his deck was mostly milled(4 cards left) since I did not have x2 Gorehowl and Upgrade or used to buff and trade with large minions.The Coldlight Oracle was saved and used to mill the last few cards. Ended with 2HP and 30 armor.
Nice :)
the hole idea here is to fill his hand with warrior spells and just wait till he bleeds out. Spectral Knight's seem to work really well as long as you keep just one minion on board
nice idea, I guess this is weak against Cleave and Brawl, but also strong against others, I like it :)
actually i never saw the AI use Brawl i guess the trigger is 3+ on board. I did 3 more runs to check how consistent the deck is and as long its [card]Fiery War Axe[/card] you get the [card]Shieldmaiden[/card]'s stuck in your hand.
Except against Alexstrasza I never saw the AI cast Flamestrike unless I had 2+ minions. The AI also saves Dragon Breath and Tailswipe unless it has lethal that turn (even if they had 10 in their hand and would win if they just used them every turn).
Shieldmaiden helps you survive and to use Shield Slam, it can also eat dragon or removal, then he have to spent mana and he will not play minions... There is nice synergy there ^^
I saw flamestrike, he used it on empty board just after he burned every card in his deck ^^ You can see this on the video btw ;)
I guess my aim here is different. I try to fill the AI hand asap dropping something big as a maiden makes it use at least 2 spells which adds at least 2 more turns of drawing creatures from his deck.
Thats works too, unless he draw some good spells, then we are in worse spot, but I guess that there is no golden strategy ^^
Sorry to hear that :( Maybe you use your cards inefficiently? Did you played control warrior before? Mulligan for Fiery War Axe and 1 mana removal, brawl in 5th turn can save the game, watch video if you didn't before... Idk how more I can help, PvE encounters are unfair, and failing is pretty common, but we can try again and again, don't force to play with bad hand, surrender and try one more time... I hope you will beat this, as i said it is hard, but pretty satisfying if you succed, gl!
You need a turn 2 Fiery War Axe and to save your Rag card until the perfect time (and RNG. Cleared the board down to a single powerful unit and the Rag 8 damage went to the face what felt like more than 50% of the time). A lot of it comes down to what card the AI gets with its hero power and whether or not it clogs up the hand or gets Charge over and over. Avoid playing 2 minions at once (so it can't use Cleave or Flamestrike) and basically sit back and save your weapon charges for removal. Once you reach fatigue is when you can start going for the face.
Only had one Brawl and Crush, no Gorehowl so I added a second Death's Bite and Arcanite Reaper and Alexstrasza. One attempt I got to fatigue but I died when he was at 15 (that's what prompted me to add Alexstrasza), the time I got it he clogged up his hand with Flamestrike/Dragon's Breath/Tail Swipe and started milling himself (threw away 10+ cards). Revenge and Whirlwind weren't that useful, I was thinking about adding Inner Rage / Big Game Hunter combo for more removal.
Thats are good ideas, anyway with 2 Brawls you got way more removal potencial, also Revenge and Whirlwind helps with small dragons and they are Execute enablers ;)
