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 ;)

yup, twisting nether hurts... thats why it's good to kill him before 8 th turn ;)
Got it on the first try with 1 less Lightwell and Demolisher, + 2 Dark Cultist
DOwn side is when he has 4 taunts on the board BEFORE..and MC the 20/20 so didn't see that coming like all the other games p2. Well gave up after try 6 he only plays taunt after taunt so ya dont' even worry about them 5/5's you never see them.
What?
He just turned to chain form when his armor wasn't down? God this is harder than I thought.
He do that in 11 th turn, forgot to mention that, thanks ;)
Second try !!! Thanks a bunch !!!
I have them too ;)
Nerub'ar Weblord seems underwhelming considering the only Battlecry minions he runs are 2x Frost Elemental.
I ran your list -2x Mind Blast -2x Nerub'ar Weblord +2 Holy Fire +1 The Black Knight +1 Sunwalker. I won on my first try. Thanks! :)
I put them here because of stats, they can be targets of combo if we didn't draw [card]Deathlord[/card], there're no others 1 or 2 cost cards that have so much hp, Lorewalker Cho and Millhouse Manastorm are too dangerous, Nat Pagle and Shieldbearer have no attack so they're easily killed and doesn't give you value as Lightwell, and finally Ancient Watcher have to be silenced, and we already need many cards to use our combo so that would be dead card in many cases ;) 1 attack may seem to be little, but it's enough sometimes for board clear while waiting for combo.
Great changes AsianInvasion! Tried the initial deck about ~15 times without success. Did not use MindBlast one single time during those 15 tries. Nerub'ar Weblords didn't do anything outstanding either.
With your changes I won also on my first try. Although he stole my ~20/22 Deathlord (I had 5+ minions on the board, damn you RNG!) it was already too late for him: Holy Fire + my Novice Engineer finished him finally :)
Thanks a lot to both of you! Those Pala & Shaman decks did not work for me either.
you're welcome I guess :D it's the best part of heroics, you got the idea how to beat boss and you change deck after every loss, it's good to hear that you did it and you were able to beat him ;)
I beat KT HC with those changes on my 4 attempt.
Agree strongly with -2x Nerub'ar Weblord +2 Holy Fire +1 The Black Knight.
Would rather remove Holy Smite than the Mind Blast
Thanks! I beat it on the third try!
good deck! got him on my 4 try even without the lightwells.
Having trouble beating him in normal mode with this deck..
np ;)
4 times, about to kill him and he randomly takes my deathlord. What am I doing wrong?
Try to fill the board before turn 8/destroying his armor, it's ok to wait turn or two to get us more board pressence, then he shouldn't try to steal buffed minion, and even if he try he got one chance of 3-4 possible targets, with average rng you should be fine ;) Of course sometimes you shuld go for the kill earlry on, if you got silence or other way to deal with taunts, twisting nether can hurt, but no risk no fun :D
