Need some help with the Frostwyrm Lair on Heroic Difficulty? We've compiled some community created deck guides to help you out! The decks used for Heroic difficulty can also help you on Normal.

Heroic Sapphiron
Warning: Alexstrasza cannot be used on this fight.
Heroic Sapphiron is a huge step above the normal version of this fight; You don't have access to Frozen Champion! The goal of the fight is to keep Sapphiron's minions at bay while smashing into his face as quickly as possible.
At the start of Sapphiron's turn, all your minions that are not frozen will be destroyed. If you want to play with minions, they're going to need to have charge to be of use to you or you can freeze them with cards like Frost Elemental and Ice Lance and hope they aren't killed off. Amaz was able to defeat this fight with a spell and secret heavy Mage deck which kept enemy minions under control while he smacked Sapphiron with Pyroblast, Fireball and various summoned minions.

Heroic Kel'Thuzad
View the Kel'Thuzad Boss Guide
Warning: Alexstrasza cannot be used on this fight.
Excluding Loatheb the man of gimmicks, Heroic Kel'Thuzad has the highest amount of effective health in all of Naxxramas, 65 (45 health, 20 armor). Once you have taken down Kel'Thuzads armor, phase two begins; Your turn will immediately end and he will bring out two Guardian of Icecrown onto the field which will put up a mighty wall against you. You are going to need to be able to immediately deal with these on your next turn as if you don't, you're going to be hit for quite a bit of damage. The worst part of all this though? Kel'Thuzad hits your hero for 3 damage every turn, and freezes you, until you get rid of his armor. No weapons until phase two! Once the armor is gone though, say goodbye to his freeze because he gets a permanent Mind Control hero power (Chains)!
So, how do we beat this absolute beast? You're going to want to get rid of Kel'Thuzad's armor as fast as possible, while making sure you can deal with his Guardians the moment his armor is gone. Once you've made it to phase two, continue to keep his side of the board clear while keeping your side fairly light on the minions.
Zoo/Rush style decks can be fantastic tools against this fight provided you get lucky, but be warned though, on turn 8, you have a good chance of seeing Twisting Nether. At least it clears his side of the board too, right?

Came back here to reminisce about how fun a boss fight Heroic Sapphiron actually was for being very difficult, and how Heroic KT was not...
And then in BRM we get Heroic Drakkisath. >.>
Why Baron Rivendare? It doesn't trigger dual Thaddius, why then?
In normal matches it does give you two Thaddiuses, as you can see here.

Here's a deck that helped me clear Heroic KTZ in 11moves on the first time. It's called really really budget cuz it involves no legendaries, and the cards are almost all basic.
Hey guys Mill rogue makes sapphiron extremely easy.
After ignoring heroic naxx since the release I came back and struggled with heroic KT but beat him with this deck on my first try!
Kel’Thuzad switched hero powers and put the taunts up even with armor still left somewhere around 10-11 cards left in his deck. I was playing a fatigue/heal deck and won when his mind control lost the coin flip with taking a low attack creature over my heavy hitter and I had lethal with the heavy hitter and -3 fatigue he took :)
Just beat Kel'Thuzad with this priest deck. I found the silence spells to be really crucial especially Mass Dispel in phase 2. Mind Control, though high mana cost is included to reclaim your super buffed up minion should the unfortunate case of him controlling it happens.
How is that possible? How can something this creature heavy sustain itself against a character who is destroying everything each turn?
Just defeated Sapphiron using the ComboHunter but subbed Leeroy Jenkins for Reckless Rocketeer. Won my first try!!
Hi guys Deck Kel and Saffiron heroic!!
Sapphiron Heroico [Naxxramas] - Patch 2.0 -
Kel'thuzad Heroico [Naxxramas] - Patch 2.0 -
I don't know if i get lucky or not, but i just defeat KT with a normal Handlock. If you can paly Jaraxxus early and have some other Gigant, you can win easily. I defeat him at the first try.
Thank you very much! Ez win with handlock, first try!
most of the decks that are displayed for the noxx are really outdated because of the nerfs and patches, to if possible, dont make a fool out of players, and try to sorts the suggested decklists, ;)
Hi, if you still dont have sapphiron, try a mage deck, i had also problems with it, but there is a way, destroy all his monsters, the last two spells in his deck will be Blizzards, and then you just smack him with everything whats lest and just wait for the lack of cards to kill him ;)
We made a guide for the Heroic Sapphiron fight using a Paladin deck. Try it out if you need help!
Did work!
FINALLY!!! Thanks for the deck!
the easiest way to beat kel' thusad is with Noxious deck see? giants! or versions of it just changing the sea giants for something else. I used this deck with 2 diffent acounts and won the game in the first try for primary account, and in second try for second account. The deck is performing great and i didnt play the giants, and in my expirience all other ecks required a lot of luck but not this one, and i won in turn 10 turn 12
After spending hours with various other decks mentioned here, I finally beat him on the first try with this deck. Since I knew that I would being taking lots of damage, I put in 2x Molten Giant for the 2x Sea Giant.
Heroic KT defeated using this deck:
Anyone who is still having trouble, try it out. :)
