Look how scared the little punk looks... Das' because he aint got nothing against this sweet deck yo.
Info about Noth, the Plaugebringer
Noth doesn't really have a strong early game. Due to this, having a good starting hand can seal the deal with this deck. However, he has a few tricks up his sleeve due to his amount of secrets. He plays Duplicate, Ice Block and Counterspell. Due to his hero power summoning a 5/5 skeleton for each minion on your own board dying, avoiding trades killing your own minions is key.
"How do I play around Plague?", is a question that seems to reappear. The best way is to be cautious with not overfilling the board with too many bodies for him to kill. Put out minions when in need of board control. Shadow Word: Death is a very good card if he happens to use Plague.
Other than that, justboy68 made a spot on quote about this spell.
"I think like you say plague is one of those disgusting cards that you really can't do much about."
Mulligan
The Lightwell is superb against this boss, which means always keep it if you get it. Along with this card, it's brilliant to start with an Inner Fire along with some kind of control-keeper. Examples for these cards are: Northshire Cleric, Power Word: Shield and Lightspawn.
Playstyle
Always avoid trading enemy minions that causes your own minions to die. This is why you want to have the Lightwell up early. In games where you feel it's going too slow, you have Alexstrasza as a backup to really push him down to lethal range.
With this being said, keep board control as much as possible and make the right trades. Do not play minions if you are aware that they will die. Don't be afraid to use your Shadow Word: Pain and Shadow Word: Death, these cards are in the deck to avoid you being forced to make bad trades and keep the control of the board. By playing like this, I have not lost a single time out of my 5 takedowns on him.
Here is a video of me playing the deck:
Replacements
Do you not have Alexstrasza? Worry not!
Alexstrasza can be replaced with some kind of heavy minion. I'll try a few replacements and see which one is best, but for now I'd say Boulderfist Ogre is a nice pick. Another idea of a replacement would be Maexxna. Reason being it's a hard body for Noth to kill, whilst it trades perfectly to remain board control.
If you need more replacement strategies, please do comment and I'll update the thread with answers.
More info coming soon!
Thanks! This worked fine. Second try. I got bad draws first time but the second round a LightWell - Divine Spirit - Inner Fire got me a 10-10 Lightwell. And once I played a thoughstolen Abomination Noth just stopped attacking...
Great Deck! First Try! :)
I replaced Alexstrasza with Loatheb to block his Plague, though it wans't needed in my try.
2nd try. Managed to build a 30/30 Lightspawn by turn 7, bringing him to 15 hp, popped his Ice Block at turn 8 and just for good meassure buffed it to a 33/33 with Temple Enforcer at turn 9 and that was the end of Noth!
Some luck of the draw and he's not(h) there any more!
Thank you!
did it in less than 2 mins lol GG
I did it! thanks!
Took a few times, but I beat him. Good deck.
1st try thx a lot
I just used a normal freeze mage and beat him first try, just be sure to hold out until the 9th turn while having alex, and trade with your spells, as you'll only need 15 points of dmg to kill him. Also keep some spare spells to hold up the counterspells.
8 attempts -- no win.
I'm doing something wrong. But his heropower on the second turn destroy me. I had Alexstrasza only once and could beat him. But he took Ice Block and I lost again. Never lucky.
I've finally decided to go back and do Naxx on Heroic. One-shotted him with this. Only thing I changed was adding 1 Entomb for 1 Holy Fire.
doing a guantlet through all the heroic bosses and i gotta say....its getting annoying. :) deck works though.
Subbed Kezan Mystics for Holy Fires, and instead of Alex and both Temple Enforcers I added a Holy Champ, Lightbomb and KT. Didn't use any of them, won first try at 6 mana crystals, awesome deck yo!
Every time i get an advantage... a freakin' Plague happens and i am screwed.. :/ Finally got him. Kezan Mystic and Lightbomb are way to go! :) Quite funny to steal his Duplicate just to get another two Kezan Mystic ! :) I didn't manage to Counterspell his so so annoying Plague though... :(
Very easy win! Lightspawn with Divine Spirit killed him off even with Ice Block.
Thx for deck. First try!
- 1 injured blademaster - 1 alexstrasza +1 deathlord +1 kel
This deck was awesome. Had an 18/18 Injured Blademaster on turn 4 he couldn't handle =) ggwp
Awesome first try - just add Holy Champion and it's piece of cake :)
I could never win with this deck
2 Words: Holy Champion
Wow this is really bad
