     Mulligan Guide: Maloriak is another frustrating heroic encounter. You are constantly at a disadvantage due to his passive special power The Alchemist. You'll want to have something you can cast early, like Voidwalker, Darkbomb, or Stubborn Gastropod, to help with the inevitable Aberration rush.

     The Poisonous minions in this deck are the best way to deal with Sludge Belchers and Drakonid Crushers. If you can manage to steal a Duplicate from him it can definitely save your bacon if you've got a Stubborn Gastropod on the board.

     If he casts Release the Aberrations! at the start it can be extremely difficult to catch up. I've had him cast both of those spells back to back, and there's nothing you can do except restart in those instances. Another card that will totally wreck you is Imp-losion, because he can gain such an advantage in minions. It's best to hang on to a Hellfire for this scenario.

     Your Mistress of Pain is a great way to start gaining life back, as long as he doesn't immediately kill her. You've also got Blastcrystal Potion just in case he puts out something that you can't deal with.  However, make no mistake, this is not an easy fight.

 

     I tried to keep this deck pretty cheap already, but if you have to sub anything out you may want to consider minions with at least 3 toughness so they can be useful once they flip or you could consider adding more Silence minions with either Ironbeak Owl or Spellbreaker.
