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
It was always only cards currently still in the deck. Hearthstone treats the deck hand and field seperate entities
Majordomo was in your hand, not your deck. Thus, Mindgames didn't work.
Thanks, he was by far the most annoying boss to beat and solely relying on RNG. Everytime I use Mindgames on him it would give me a Kidnapper (every time...). Got him after 10-15 tries, only reason I did was because I Mindgamed his Boulder Fist ogre, he played Mindgames early, I killed Majordomo with Shadow Death and then had a Holy Smite to finish him next turn... Way too many things need to go right in order to win. Even when I had double light bombs and he used Mindgames it can always go either way... Thanks for helping out beating him!
Holy cow, I finally made this, tried almost 20 times (1xLightbomb, 1xDoomsayer).
That's some serious RNG should happen. My example: 1st turn I played Mindgames, giving me Force Tank. He plays Sprint and Ogre. 2nd turn I played the Tank, he played 2xMindgames giving him Majordomo and Doomsayer. Then I killed Majordomo with my SW:D, hit face with Tank. Next turn I'm just used Mind Blast..
After About 20 Tries, here's what happened for me:
Turn 1: I Mindgames and get a Lord of The Arena.
He plays Troggzor The Earthinator and Drakanoid Crusher.
Turn 2: I Mind Control Troggzor and kill the trogg he spawned.
He plays Mindgames.
Turn 3: I pass.
He plays freaking Flamestrike and Sprint and then kills my Troggzor, giving me exactly 15 damage in Troggs, enough to kill both Majordomo and Rag.
Smart AI there
No RNG involved at all :D
Fourth try win on third turn. he played mind games twice. +1 for nice deck
5 try then i got him
I hear you! I have played this deck and others countless times. I kept wanting to get the Lightbomb because I watched the video that shows it blowing up the General too and when I finally got it I was so excited and....it did not do the same thing as in the video :( I have no idea why. I must be missing something.
Thank you! 1st try with this deck after endless tries with "normal" decks.
Took me about 30 attempts to finally beat this boss with this deck. You're basically relying entirely on RNG. You need to make sure you have Lightbomb, and two Mind Blast, then hope he plays Mindgames within his first two turns. You want to hold the Lightbomb instead of SW:D since it can clear up the rest of his other minions as well as Majordomo Executus which would enable him to kill you after turning into Ragnaros. If this exact situation doesn't happen then concede and try again.
It can go a lot of ways. You need Removal (Shadow Word: Death, Lightbomb) and/or Mind Control, ideally. My game went like this:
1. Mind Vision for gain-the-Armor spell of his, which is amazing.
1. He makes a Force Tank MAX.
2. Mind Control Force Tank MAX.
2. Troggzor the Burninator and Boulderfist Ogre.
3. Force Tank MAX kills Troggzor. Thoughtsteal whiffs.
3. Hit me for 6, Mind Games Major Domo Executus, make some other huge guy (I forget).
4. Cast gain-the-armor spell, killing the non-Ogre. Force Tank MAX kills Major Domo Executus. He's Rag! No board though.
4. Ogre hits me for 6, Rag hits me for 8. (I am at 20).
5. Resurrect Force Tank MAX.
5. Ogre hits me again for 6, Rag hits Force Tank MAX, popping the bubble.
6. Force Tank MAX to Rag's face, Holy Smite for the win.
The only thing you need in this matchup is the early Mindgames for Majordomo Executus. After that you can wing it a little.
wtf, killed him first time -> mind control, he plays mind games, sw:d , attack with mind controled minion = gg.
I tried this once with my own deck and decided I'd just see what others were using. This deck makes it stupidly easy. But still awesome. Thanks!
I can't believe I didn't see this deck before I used so many other decks to beat him (which took FOREVER). I tried this one time (and I don't even have Lightbomb) and I won.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I had such a problem with this heroic boss all the other bosses of both adventures so far have been alright but I do not even have close to the right cards to beat this boss(Don't have the essential cards to build any decks to counter him), I used what I had of this deck(even added shadow form as I did not have enough spells to fill up the deck) and after many games finally beat him. Even though it took a while it worked.
This is by far the cheapest deck to beat him with as well: (1240 dust) vs (2240 to 20000+ dust) and you need naxx with the other decks as well. How is this not one of the featured decks.
I don't know why it isn't a featured deck, afterall the decks that are featured are basically the same strategy just different classes, this strat is not represented and feels unique to this encounter, I asked Fluxflashor about it, well see what he says when he pops back on
Because they want you to buy cards :D
Lol, that might be it, maybe hearthpwn is getting some kickbacks from the Blizzard sales team. ;p
Omg... i don't have [card]Lightbomb[/card], but after a million tries, de Doomsayer did the trick and i finally beat it. Thax for the deck!
Really hated this boss.
