Funny note: it still works, if u want to beat him u can do it easily with this deck, rip naxx, c'ya guys!
Kel'Thuzad, you cheater, my Inner fired minions will destroy you!
Our enemy starts with 45 hp, 20 armor and ability:
Frost Blast - Deal 3 damage to the enemy hero and Freeze it.
He will use it every turn, thats why it's good to be priest, also Lightwell helps a lot.
His deck contain 30 cards, thanks to user Beonitas we have all of them listed here:
2 x Frost Shock
2 x Zombie Chow
2 x Frostbolt
2 x Acolyte of Pain
2 x Dark Cultist
2 x Shadow Bolt
2 x Skeletal Smith
2 x Shadow Madness
2 x Abomination
2 x Frost Elemental
2 x Sludge Belcher
2 x Spectral Knight
1 x Blizzard
2 x Twisting Nether
Our basic winning condition is one of our big hp minions with [card]Power Word: Shield[/card], [card]Divine Spirit[/card] and of course [card]Inner Fire[/card]
Probably best target for this combo is [card]Deathlord[/card], he got 8 hp so we can have huge minion, and also he got taunt!
When we deal 20 dmg to Kel'Thuzad and destroy his armor (or in his 11 th turn) he will instantly end our turn, summon two Guardian of Icecrown and change his passive to:
Chains - Take control of a random enemy minion. Cost: 8
So it's nice idea when we're about to destroy his armor to do everything but attacking him and then deal as much damage as possible, to not waste our turn/our minions attack. Also dont leave your buffed minion alone when Kel'Thuzad got 8 mana, it's not the smartest idea ^^
To deal with his taunts we have Silence(not anymore, but u can use it if u dont have some cards ;) ) and [card]Mass Dispel[/card], buffed and taunted minions with [card]Sunfury Protector[/card] can "passivly" clear his board. When they're dead we can smash his face with our inner fired minions, and probably hopefully ^^ kill him before he will be able to use new passive.
Muligan for Lightwell, [card]Northshire Cleric[/card] and [card]Deathlord[/card], when you got this you want to have also some buffs, always throw away 3+ cards that aren't [card]Deathlord[/card]s. It may take some games, you may need to muligan and surrender several times to get what you need, but its imo best deck for this boss. It's also duel against AI so you can do it again and again, don't need to win 10 times, once is enough, and with this deck you only need to do your combo and dodge Chains/Twisting Nether it IS possible ^^
Also, if you don't want to give him time to steal your minion, you can kill him before he get his second ability, it is not so hard, you just need to have 46+ attack creature... Like this:
Gl Hf and enjoy new card back ;)

First try win! congratulations on the deck, is excellent, probably the best deck against kel'thuzad
finally beat it after like 5 hours total i used a different deck but made a 40/40 death lord still not worth a card back wish they gave like 5k gold as well maybe more
Great deck, beat him on 2nd try. He definitely uses Nether on turn 8 so be ready for the board wipe and have your 2nd round of damage ready....and a little luck that he won't steal your super-guy on the next turn. A Nerubian Egg might be worth it.
I drew my whole deck and even one damage from fatigue before I was able to finally take him down with my 41/41.
First time won (thanks to 28 damage deathlord).
Kel'Thuzad is too slow imo and Twisting Nether is a b*&ch, but one card doesn't matter much, you can try it ^^
Awesome deck, worked incredibly well! Needed about 4 goes before I had a good opening hand and good draws but then managed to double divine spirit and double inner fire on a deathlord and a blademaster to deal 43 total damage. Thanks ! :)
Amazing deck! He MC'ed my 40/30 Deathlord, but I just mass dispelled through that and destroyed him. You rock.
Kt in 15 odd tries, this deck definitely works, just takes a bit of luck.
My advice is watch how much mana he has, if he is going to be 8 next turn his going to twisting nether guaranteed. So hopefully you have a inner fire and divine spirit or two ready to finish it in a turn or so. I used all minions initially and tried to rush him and twisting nether stuffed me up.
You will have to dodge at least 1 mind control hero power at some point so it just comes down to luck, try have 3 or more minions down at this point so your strong minion doesn't get taken over.
Good deck and strategy. I won with a variant of this deck. One change that helped (a LOT) was add two Haunted Creeper and keep them to the last phase. When KT start getting your creatures is very helpful having some 1/1 tokens in play. For me he stole them twice before die.
I used the exact deck posted and ended up with a 64/64 deathlord on turn 7, my first attempt with any deck, chunked KT down from 45 hp 14 armor to nothing in a turn, I drew my entire deck minus maybe 4 cards in those 7 turns as well haha. Would definitely reccomend it
Worked like a charm. Was way too easy once you get a 24/24 taunted windfury minion lol
one shot him with this deck. ended it with a 45 / 45 deathlord, dropped him to three armor (infantry + inner fire for the win) and then lit him up ~ turn 10. Next turn was me mowing down the two 5/5 taunts and praying to RNGeezus (also dumped every minion I had on the field, even if he just killed them for free, to give a higher chance for the 45/45 to stay. Turn 12 kill, and this is the VERY first time I tried. Enjoying the new card back. This deck is very well put together, and I ended up using EVERY CARD in my deck during the match (explained below)
A few notes: I dont have lightwells or mass dispell, and since I'm saving gold for upcoming BRM wings, I didn't wanna buy packs for dust. I replaced Mass dispell with 1 silence (used early to stop an abomination from clearing my little guys the turn before I smashed his armor) and the lightwells became 2 revives (Dropped turn 1 NS Cleric, Kel frostbolted it. turn 4 saw it revive twice along with playing another, so I Drew stupid amounts of cards early. Should be noted that I decked out the turn I killed him too, I drew something like fourteen cards over three turns and had to purposefully kill off two of my three NS clerics to keep from overdrawing. I Don't recommend the card overall, as it's unreliable (unless you play it after only 1 minion has been killed.) but it was enough to draw me both inner fires and divine spirits when I needed them, so maybe it's a consideration for the deck. I know I also got really lucky (no Twisting nether and he never stole my 45/45) but this is the first netdeck that won the match for me on the first try across all of the heroic bosses
Nice one ;) I beat sapphiron with freezemage, idk if there are valid budget decks, but I may try... anybody interested? ^^
I used this one for sapphiron:
http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/94114-mage-fatigue-for-heroic-sapphiron-70-win-rate
beat him first try, subbed out the 2 vaporizes + 1 blizzard (didn't have them) for 2 polymorph (never got used, 1 never got drawn, last one was in my hand when I won) and 1 dragons breath (ended up hitting his face with this for free on turn 7 after a high-value flamestrike.) I tried hunter and druid to win against sapphiron too, neither went well, freeze / stall mage is the way to go. let him deck out and then run everything you have left into him. ONLY hero power him if you have no other use for the mana, and don't touch his face until he plays every minion he owns. best cards in the deck are flamestrike and explosive sheep, I got the best trades from those.
Looks nice, I thought about similar deck, so I guess that works fine ;)
Thanks for this deck, I was able to beat the first time... kind of. I had to concede about 3 times before I got Deathlord and PW:S. Light of the Naaru, Velen's Chosen won the game for me, with two Circle of Healing and Northshire Cleric. I used Mass Dispel right at the start of Phase 2. I'll admit that I probably had rngesus on my side (for once), I been losing for days to KT with every other kind of deck, Warlock, Shaman, Mage, etc.
Oh yeah, I wouldn't throw down a Northshire Cleric if you can't also play PW:S on the same turn, KT likes to Frost Bolt it immediately otherwise.
Pic shows board before win.
Thanks Vernitrax!
Np, gj! :)
Flying Machine and [card]Gnomeregan Infantry[/card] are some kind of "last chance" cards, first doesnt need full combo, it have windfury, and second got taunt and charge, you can land combo in turn 6+ and attack, I guess that it's better to surrender and try one more time, but also those cards are some good replacements for new players if they don't have [card]Injured Blademaster[/card]s and [card]Lightwell[/card]s ;)
Silence is decent card here, I used it myself with my first decklist, so I belive that it can help too, but getting buffable minion and combo is imho more important so thats why I put more minions in ;)
I tried this deck and I 1shotted the dude with this deck. So great a deck!
My two cents, this deck is probably the best I've seen for this however nothing is a gimme when it comes to this fight. It is completely about your first hand and more about him not having anything like shadow bolt frost bolt twisting nether and making it to part two by turn 5 or 6. The fight is annoy because it is nothing but RNG but this deck isn't bad its just the fight is designed this way. However I would say anything still using this deck don't give up I got him to 1 health until he took my 20/20 light well, so it can be done you just gotta roll the dice and hope he doesn't destroy your board and ruin any chance at winning in one turn or hope he can't remove anything on turn 2 or 3. If these go right then you stand a 50% chance of winning. This does sound unfair and yes most of heroic is highly unfair to the point where i would say if you dont start with what you need concede until you get the hand you need. Also try subing some cards if you think you need to, i was getting more screwed by deathlords then actually being helped so i swapped them with 1/7s AND because of what you taunt and dont taunt often because his second hero power will abuse that fact.
Tl:dr this deck is good this fight is just unfair. you can win just try variations until then, and basically keep pounding your head against this brick wall until it decides it wants to fall.
