If you are here then you are propably a masochist without Kel'Thuzad, because that's the easiest way to defeat this boss on heroic difficulty (at least it sounds like it; I don't have it). Is this deck better than otk C'Thun priest? I think so. 

Our goal here is simple: stall the first part of the game with lots of taunts and summon three 30/30 jade golems in the second half (or close to 30/30). To accomplish that we need a well known combo Gadgetzan Auctioneer + Jade Idol when on fatigue.

Mulligan: 
Tar Creeper, Sen'jin Shieldmasta, Shellshifter and if you have those you may consider Psych-o-Tron. Above of that you may keep Wrath, Wild Pyromancer and some more expensive taunt minions.

Tips:
Try to place taunts turn after turn. The more taunts you have the better.
Always have in mind that Nazra can deal you even 15 points of damage out of thin air.
Wrath is a removal, but if you control the board feel free to use it, even on your minions, to draw a card.
Never leave your Gadgetzan Auctioneer without a taunt, unless you have second copy of him in hand/deck; Your enemy WILL likely target him.
Wild Pyromancer is here, because he costs two mana and has three attack. His effect can be used to clear the board, but it is a really soldom situation.
Lack of cards in the middle of the game? Gadgetzan Auctioneer may draw you some, but use him wisely.
Oh that's a good looking Arcanite Reaper you got there. It would be a shame if somebody used Acidic Swamp Ooze. But seriously tho, that's your primary target with this minion.
Mortal Strike is brutal, but you shouldn't heal your opponent. Your heal is limited. Plus your opponent won't attack your taunt minions when low on health.
Remember, that you also need a lot of health AFTER the first phase. Prince Malchezar
will hit you for 12 if you don't remove his stuff (and you won't), but he can also buff his minions with Power Overwhelming and Demonfire. Having above 20 health points is wise.
And most importantly: this boss can be defeated ONLY when you are lucky. Don't give up because you lost 15 times in a row.

Replacements: 
Druid of the Claw or Dark Arakkoa if you lack Shellshifter or Ancient of Blossoms. Other ones are pretty neccesary. (Druid of the Claw is worse than Dark Arakkoa because your enemy will usualy slam 3/3's on the board; guess what happens then)
Ysera, The Lich King or Dark Arakkoa if you lack Malfurion the Pestilent or even Ancient of War.  (The Lich King is worse than Ysera, because of Emerald Drakes and higher health wich can be both combined with Defender of Argus)

Upgrades:
Soggoth the Slitherer for Ancient of War.
Hadronox for Ancient of War.
Ultimate Infestation for Nourish, but I am not certain if it's the right decision.
Gluttonous Ooze for Acidic Swamp Ooze.

Disclaimer: I have NOT checked for replacements or upgrades in wild sets.

Some choices in this deck: 
I have not included Fandral Staghelm, because his only good synergies are with Wrath and Jade Idol. He also mocks your Shellshifter, because taunt + stealth...
I have not included more jade cards, because they are useless in this fight and you still have to pull off Gadgetzan Auctioneer + Jade Idol for those sweet 30/30's.
Why I have included Nourish? Because you need some card draw or you won't get your win condition before your opponent fatigues.
I have not included Feral Rage because Healing Touch is better (you can prevent your opponent from dying to fatigue and you can also heal your minions).
Why there are no mana cheats, like Innervate or Wild Growth? Because we need lots of taunts, not big minions fast.
Why I have included Defender of Argus? Because he synergises with Moonglade Portal and big jade golems.
Why is there Malfurion the Pestilent? Because of that sweet armor from hero power, and stall with two 1/5 taunt minions.

Good luck!
