Update: Having trouble getting it to work? I have substitution ideas later on in the write up. Maybe try this strategy with a different class, each class can work with this strategy, some better than others, I personally have won using this strategy with Warlock, Priest, Mage, Hunter, and Warrior.
Take advantage of drakkisath's Mindgames with the only minion in your deck, Majordomo Executus. and Lightbomb.
Mind Vision and Thoughtsteal can be used to fish for his copies of Drakkisath's Command and Twisting Nether if you don't start with Lightbomb
He plays Mindgames and summons your Majordomo Executus, you use Lightbomb(recommended) or other removal, then race ragnaros' hero power with spells
Here is some game play video courtesy of Kizaru1
Note: I tried to make the deck as cheap as possible, but I needed 29 spells, so some were bound to be useless. If you have the cards though, you can replace 1 or two of the useless spells, such as Shadow Word: Pain with a second Lightbomb or even your very own Mindgames
Having trouble getting Drakkisath to play his Mindgames? Consider adding 1 Doomsayer to your deck, turn 1 this can force Drakkisath to play Mindgames if he has it in his hand.
Proof of top three decks for BRM wing 3
Took about 70 attempts but did work in the end. This may be the last heroic I attempt, though, this garbage is simply not fun.
Don't have Lightbomb so trying this idea with a Mage.
Have Majordomo and Malygos. idea is to Mulligan for Malygos, have him Mindgames out Majordomo, kill domo with pyroblast or fireball, then finish Ragnaros off with Frostbolt.
Only problem is 15 tries in, still haven't Mulligan'd Malygos!
What are the chances?
3 cards to start, 3 more if mulligan them all, 1 on the first draw. That's 7/30. That's about 23% to have him in opening. or just under 1 in 4 games...
FML and F#$@ this boss!
.-. try it playing like a freeze mage, don't mulligan for malygos but for pyroblast (2 copy if u have) then use your frost nova, blizzard, iceblock, doomslayer to survive until his mindgame, then finish off with frostbolt icelance or similar
Pretty good, requires some RNG. I removed both Shadow Word: Pain (as they really serve no purpose) and added a second Lightbomb for a higher chance to mulligan into it and my own Mindgames. Happened to get Mindgames and Shadow Word: Death in my opening hand. I used my Mindgames, scored his "The Beast" out of his deck, on his turn he Mindgames my Majordomo Executus and slams down a War Golem. I Shadow Word: Death the Majordomo Executus and hit face for 9 on turn 2. Easy win after many many decks and tries.
Good Luck to everyone, you're gonna need it.
This is such a great idea, even when you failed to kill ragnaros quickly, he cannot summon any of his high mana minion, This is genius!
For bonus : he lost all of his armor, so 2 mind blast kill him quickly
Finally beat him after trying to do Kelthuzad + reincarnate/ Kelthuzad + stealth
fuck this 100 tries and the conditions are bullshit...its just too fucking boring and blizz fails with rng in this game
It took me about 5 try's with this deck, but I mulligan hard for not only lightbomb but also for 5dmg spell, if you can get those two in a starter hand you only have a small chance of loosing
Small chance of losing?? In my experience there is only a ~5% chance of him using Mindgames before he game is over, so no matter what you get in your opening hand, 95% chance of loss.
I don't know what kind of sequence you have been playing but I tried it about 10 times just now and had mindgames by turn 4 about 75-80% of the time. If you compare that with the 2 hours I spent on mage and rogue trying the KT combination I would say 75-80% win rate is pretty reasonable, and yes that's what I would consider a small chance of loosing comparative to between 50-100 losses I had trying the KT strat
I only had the 1 Lightbomb which only appeared when he didn't want to mindgame...
But then I got lucky, copied his Twisting Nether just before he copied my Majordomo. :D
Thanks!
as soon as you have the mulligan he doesn't play it, better off with the shaman kt deck
20+ tries now with this deck. I just can't seem to find every combo pieces in one match.
Thanks for the brilliant deck.
Was kinda tired of getting destroyed completely by Kidnapper on everything else I tried.
Excellent deck! Beated him on 1st try after one hour of tryes with mage, druid and rogue decks.
Wow. I take back what I said. This is -the- reliable way to beat him. Great strategy.
I actually had to log in just to give this +1. I mulligan-ed for Lightbomb and 2 Mind Blasts and luckily he used Mindgames on turn 1. I beat him on turn 3. Cheers!
Don't have Lightbomb so I used the Hunter version.
Still, kudos on coming up with this great deck.
Solid deck. Worked for me after about 8-9 times. He always seems eager to play Mind Games.
Huge kudos on this deck. After hours of trying the KT+Taunt combo and losing KT this worked in about 20 minutes.
Imma give this a try, what do you reckon is the best starting hand? lightbomb, thought steal?
