Heroic Big Bad Wolf Featuring Druid of the Fang!
Gameplan:
Use druid transforming minions to cheat value in this fight! Druid of the Claw, Druid of the Flame, Druid of the Saber, and Druid of the Fang all come in at their expected stat values, meaning you can rush some very early big minions. Thought the 7/7 Flamewreathed Faceless was overpowered at 4 mana? You can have a 7/7 at just ONE mana in this deck. Special shoutout to DJGrimm for suggesting this strategy.
Early Game:
Mulligan for minions that generate a lot of stats on the board, such as Dr. Boom, Cenarius, Onyxia, Druid of the Claw, or Druid of the Fang. If you start with a Druid of the Fang or Mark of Y'Shaarj in hand, make sure you have another beast in hand. Play for control of the board in the beginning; the Big Bad Wolf has the means to rush you down if you leave minions on his board. Always try to make favorable trades and play your other deathrattle minions on turns when he cannot overwhelm you. If you draw Kel'Thuzad early, save him to play behind a taunt minion. The opponent will stop attacking until Kel'Thuzad is killed (probably by Swipe). Also, try to save Hemet Nesingwary for Stranglethorn Tiger.
Late Game:
Continue to apply pressure to the Big Bad Wolf with your minions. The more minions you keep alive, the better off you are. Your buffing cards are more important later on, since they extend the value of you minions (which will probably be mostly 1/1s and a few big beasts). If you start hitting a top deck scenario, stall until you get another big card, such as Forbidden Ancient. The Big Bad Wolf is also vulnerable to chipping damage until you kill him, so if you're feeling confident you can try to ignore the board and rush him down. His only stall cards are Ironfur Grizzly and Bite, so keep those in mind when choosing this path.
Other Considerations:
- Use a few other deathrattle minions in your favor! Abomination can clear out his early game minions before you build a board, while Sylvanas Windrunner can turn the tide in your favor. Moat Lurker may even work on you minions to resummon them at their full stat line. Top them all off with a 1 mana N'Zoth, the Corruptor for another massive board drop!
- Feral Rage can be a strong flexible card in this fight, where the removal helps against his 3 health minions if you do not need the armor.
- The deck lacks in card draw, so consider any minions that draw you cards (Novice Engineer, Nourish, etc).
- If you are on a budget, I recommend using North Sea Kraken, Stormpike Commando, and Sunwalker style minions in place of legendaries.
- Ancient of War is somewhat viable, coming in as a 1/6 Taunt for 1 mana. He can also be a 6/1 for 1 mana if you need a better Magma Rager...
- D'oh! Twilight Summoner and Cairne Bloodhoof are both better than Nerubian Egg!
The Abomination Exploit: (Fixed on 8/27/16)
Abomination can already be valuable in this fight as a board clear. However, it's come to light that it can also cause the Big Bad Wolf to stop attacking entirely. The only minions that seem to attack into it are his starting Kindly Grandmothers, so either trigger the deathrattles first or buff Abomination's health above their combined attack. The only other times he will attack you or trigger Abomination is if he has lethal in Power of the Wild/Savage Roar, or plays Swipe on another minion. It can be difficult to set this up, but if the opportunity is there, you should try it.
Sometimes you get a weak starting hand and he steamrolls you by turn 3 or 4. Just restart if you can't place a lot of stats or value on the board in the first 2 turns. If you start out with a big statline, such as Druid of the Claw into Druid of the Fang, you've probably already won. Don't forget to upvote the deck so that others can revel in the might of the 1 mana 7/7 and use the actually-viable-for-the-first-time-ever Hemet Nesingwary. Good luck, have fun!
Literally had the EXACT first game!
Dr. 7 first turn took care of the wolves then Haunted Creeper and 7/7 beast followed by Nerubian and Kel'Thuzad = GG. 1st try.
He skips every turn against Abomination!
2x Blood of The Ancient One 2 course 30/30 easy win
got it done the second attempt tyvm
+2 Abomination
+2 Twilight Summoner
+2 North Sea Kraken
+2 Stampeding Kodo
+1 Mukla's Champion
+1 Kodorider
Have you tried changing your deck to wild? (Hover over the deck name while editing it to see the option)
My Version...
+1 Ragnaros the Firelord
+1 Sylvanas Windrunner
+2 Twilight Summoner
-2 Forbidden Ancient
-2 Druid of the Saber
It didn't work before I added Abomination x2...
Too long and not that solid. Try this one
Make your own post instead of trying to hijack this one.
Very good deck second try and done, Nerubian Egg I didn't find good so I replaced them with abomination (didn't draw them either).
who the f has hemet???
I didn't have Hemet Nesingwary until recently either. I looked through my collection, saw that I was only missing 6 GvG cards and decided to craft them. Since there's no way to get GvG packs now, I figured I may as well finish that set, lol. Fortunately, he's not that important to the deck, but he does always have a target against this boss.
Replacement for Onyxia?
Wow this boss was piss easy, I just steamrolled him with N'Zoth and KT. No abominations or other shenanigans needed.
Replaced the legends with blood of the ancient one
turn1 = druid of the claw
turn 2 = 2 Blood of The Ancient One
he came after The Ancient One
turn 4 kill on my 2nd try
Please make a deck that is more expensive than this deck!! Fun Idea but if you need to beat this boss and do not have the dust, use my deck!
yep this deck mad easy and straightforward. can confirm
Kodorider is very good in this deck as a replacement.
