First of all, don't be afraid by the cost of the deck. Those are the cards I used but a lot (almost all) legendary are not even needed.
What you really need to make this a cake walk is:
Shadow Word: Death: Try to get this in your opening hand, since Rafaam summon mostly 5+ attack minion on his turn, this is the most useful card you'll need.
Entomb: This card is just amazing since Rafaam will summon OP minions at 3 turn interval. If you SW:D the first one, you can entomb the second one no problem and use it later.
Lightbomb: Great board clear since a lot of his minions got more attack than HP, while our dragons survive the attack
Mind Control: Also amazing, to steal his big minion, no problem with them after.
For the rest of the card, I took the Wyrmrest Agent and Twilight Guardian and others dragon for the cheap taunt. Since you always get your Hero Power replace, it's kinda useless to play around it.
Third try win, thanks!
This Deck Is Garbage Don't Waste Your Time
This deck is absolute garbage. You need really good RNG to win with it, rafaam constantly drops 3/4s and 3/5s that your lightbomb can't clear and if you don't draw all of your removal pieces perfectly on time while he doesn't have a way to deal with the 10/10 you steal once or twice in the game you just lose. Replace the holy novas and lightbombs if you want a chance at winning.
Tried a lot of other decks. This one just works. Thanks!
AMAZING DECK! I tried a few others and this by far had the most synergy. In fact I almost always had too many cards in my hand.
Beat it on the 3rd time! Thanks for the deck! xoxo
Pretty good deck. I had to make a few revisions that helped synergize the deck a little better and deal with some of the AoE.
Taken out:
Ressurect x2
Velen's Chosen x2
Auchenai Soulpriest x1
Mass Dispel x1
Vol'jin x1
Confessor Paletress x1
Added:
Doomsayer x2
Netherspite Historian x1
Darkshire Alchemist x2
Drakonid Operative x1
Dragonfire Potion x1
Bloodmage Thalnos x1
Play Doomsayer or Shadow Word: Death or a removal from the crate on T3 & T6. Try to take over Phaerix or animated armor. Use taunts to stall and hold AoE's for Zombies (Thalnos & Holy Nova is good for that).
Thanks Cuddy!!! Made all the difference in the WORLD!!
I think it's better to replace Holy Nova with Excavated Evil since he runs a spell that fills his board with 3/3 zombies
First try, thanks !
Never got anywhere after 10 tries. Then I used the mill deck I already used for 2 other bosses in this adventure and I got it in 3rd try. Frankly, the mill deck has more removal than this deck with the added bonus of him burning through his deck and gets killed in just one turn with Brann + Coldlight. Doomsayer is absolute killer against this boss!
Took me about 4-5 attemps. Not so hard, but u need some luck to get the right hand.
-1 Vol'jin
-1 Lightbomb
-1 Confessor Paletress
+1 Holy Fire
+2 Darkshire Alchemist
Great deck! Thanks for this! The control is unbelievable. I managed to steal his Skelesaurus via Mind Control and it gave me Varian Wrynn. Varian then put Ysera on the board and from then on, it was smooth sailing. Done on the third try and enjoying my new card back!
Cards I replaced due to not having them:
-1 Vol'jin
-2 Lightbomb
-1 Confessor Paletress
+2 Holy Fire
+2 Darkshire Alchemist
It took me 3 tries but to be fair the first time I tried I had no idea what I was doing or what to expect, it's been so long since I beat him on normal. The second try I was getting the hang of it and the third time was a bit stressful because I was always getting the right cards to play at the last second but so it still worked, i just had general unlucky draws and lucky ones in the nick of time, As for the deck, it's damn solid, I couldn't ask for more. It's really well thought out and has all the right cards. I felt at times that I was lacking healing spells but the taunts and theft cards made up for it. Also this is just a personal thing that helped me out a lot but using your hero power in this match helps a lot. Those little spells will come in handy when you least expect it. So I'd say past turn 4-5 unless it's an impossible play at the time, try to always save two mana to draw a hero power spell, you won't regret it, I won because of one of those spells at the end, - "deal 5 damage to all characters" - I had more health than him and had nothing left to go for face so that's how I won. Just keep in mind that if you Mind Control the minion that makes you draw 2 cards every turn then take it easy on the hero power otherwise you'll mill yourself, happened to me on my second try. Anyways all that to say great solid deck, choice of cards were perfect and you're right about the legendaries, they're not all essential. I had to trade Ysera and Confessor Paletress because I didn't have them for Ragnaros the Firelord and Nefarian and everything still went pretty well. So again great deck, and thank you for LoE cardback finally!
Idk why people are saying this deck is terrible... I normally make my own decks for adventures, but didn't want to waste time and just copied this. Worked on first try with very little effort.
i had no luck with this...after 4 failed attempts i switched the dragon core (and the auchenai, what's his purpose here?) to a lategame control approach, beat him on the first try. the resurrects do far better work like that.
What is this deck???? Where is big game hunter? Where is sylvannas? Where is emperor cobra and maexnna? And WTF is soul priest doing here?
I made A LOT of changes before I could win...I also got lucky twice...the first was when he unstable portalled iron juggernaut and dropped a mine into my deck...I drew it right on my next turn after that...but my hand was already full...lol
The second thing was the artifact I got in turn 2 was y'sera tear...used it in turn 3...dropped sylvannas...traded her into his first 10/10 minion in turn 4 and stole it...then I used 2 ressurects to bring her back twice...the game was mine from there on out...
so yeah...this deck needs major improvement
Thanks for linking this! After many tries with the priest deck to no avail I decided to try the Shaman deck. it only took about 4 tries with this Shaman deck and I beat him! I made sure to like and comment on the video as well. :)
Yea I seriously have no idea why Soulpriest would be in this deck at all...
Great deck! I won first try, but that was mainly due to luck. Raf burgled me, played burgled museum curator into curated majordomo. Turning him into rag removed the immune, and I was able to just one shot him with the healing item.
