Hey guys,

Here's the deck I used to take down the Lich King with Jaina. In short, here's the general strategy:

1)  Aggressively mulligan for both Kabal Lackey and Counterspell. You need the secret up on turn 1 to counter his turn 1 spell which sets your life total to 1. You will likely concede many times prior to acquiring both cards in your starting hand. If you have both, then keep scientist/arcanologist or card draw.

2) Congrats, you can now play a fair game of hearthstone. The deck plays like freeze / quest mage. Draw as much as possible early on while slowing your opponent's development. You are trying to draw into the combo of apprentice, molten reflection, Emperor, and Tony. 

3) Eventually you will play Tony to get a reduction on all of these cards. If you have all of them in hand, you will be able to OTK the lich king on the following turn. If you are low on health and have the combo in hand, make sure you have ice block up on the turn you jam Emperor!

4) After the Emperor reduction, play the quest mage OTK of 2x sorcerer's, 2x molten reflections targeting your sorcerer's, and then play Tony. If you had all of these reduced on the previous turn, you have 1 mana to spare, meaning you can afford to miss a reduction on 1 of your apprentice's if necessary. Be sure to navigate your way to this turn such that you have a spell with a maximum of 4 mana cost in your hand which you may cast for zero with your four apprentices in play. Generate your infinite fireballs. 

I hope this guide is helpful to some of you struggling to take down the Lich King!
