I crafted double molten giant just to dfeat lich king with mage and hunter. now I only need shaman and paladin, anidea what are the best (budget) decks for these. Im thinking about murloc paladin and just buff your mionions so high with Murlock Warlead so they dont die. for shaman I ave no ideo yet.
Pally murlocs will do the trick, it's just that you need even more highrolling than with the other classes.
Shaman can do it with an evolve token deck and double bloodlust.
I did paladin with the tirion bug/exploit. now doing shaman with murlock/token.
Just got Arthas. Used only decks of my own (self build and self thought of) to keep the challenge real. I intentionally also didn't watch streamers, of use exploits.
Priest: Quest priest (first try)
Druid: Astral Communion, didnt get astral in my hand, but ramped up quickly with Mire Keepers. First try.
Hunter: Deck's idea was to have 14 minions in my deck to start turn 1 with free giants. Didn't draw the giants at all, but curved out really smooth with Alley Cats and Scaveging Hyena's. First try with this deck, however many attempts before it with a reno hunter
Paladin: Hardest one of them all. Started out a control pally, failed tens of times. Started using Tentacles of N'zoth and unstable ghouls, still failed. Then I queued into him with a Barnes+Majordomo deck to make him become majordomo for a third attempt Turn 6 lethal.
Rogue; first try with Murloc Rogue (lol)
Mage: Quest Mage. Used a turn 1 Counterspell, i don't know if that's considered an exploit
Warlock: Renolock with Bloodreaver. Pretty easy first attempt
Shaman: started with Jade Shaman, didn't work. Switched to Evolve bloodlust Shaman and got him on my second attempt.
Warrior: Used a hybrid of Pirate Warrior to grab the board and some Fat minions to finish him. Rotface, dr. Boom, ragnaros, double arcane giants and Yogg Saron. Took about 5 tries, then I beat him with 1 hp left myself.
Pretty fun to do,though it bugged me he didnt switch up decks, and he always had the same turn 7 (frostmourne)
Mage: Elementals with DK and a lot of heals (I tried like 30 times to get the counterspell done in the first turn, I was never lucky to get both Lackey or the spell at once)
Warlock: Renolock with DK
Shaman: Evolve/Bloodlust + DK, the dream turns were 6 and 7 respectively (first DK and Devolve, next turn Bloodlust 5 minions whose attack combined was something over 40 or so)
Warrior: Exploit with Kel
Paladin: I gave him Majordomus for a double Rag Match and killed him with the hero power (I also gave him Noggenfogger right before that which made him attack the wrong minions for 2 turns)
now the hardest for me were Hunter and Rogue because I am not an aggro player.
for Hunter, I netdecked one of Heart's decks with like 10-12 minions in, anyways, Hyena was at 18 attack + Windfury by turn 5, so that did it for me
for Rogue, I tried Quest Rogue and after 5 tries, I had it done, with all Brewmasters, some draw minions, Annoy-O-Tron, Healbot and Moroes; I could stall turn 6 because my board was full of 5/5s and the Lich kept attacking them instead of my face
1 shotted every class, heroic mode never been so easy in my entire life. :D

Finally did it.
Priest: Inner Fire Priest
Druid: Ramp
Mage: Elementals with DK and a lot of heals (I tried like 30 times to get the counterspell done in the first turn, I was never lucky to get both Lackey or the spell at once)
Warlock: Renolock with DK

Have not spend much time trying to get it ... I will use the Kripperian video where he shows how he did it with all classes.
I have Arthas.
Druid - Miracle Jade (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/917680-standard-lich-king-budget-jade-druid with some minor changes)
Hunter - Face Hyena/Fledgling (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/917988-budget-rexxar-vs-the-lich-king with some minor changes)
Mage - Fireball OTK with Reno (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/918673-less-rng-otk-mage-lich-king-guide)

Priest - Divine Spirit/Inner Fire OTK (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/917632-budget-lich-king modified with 2x Shadow Word: Horror and some other minor changes)
Rogue - Murlocs with some spells to thin the deck, no Megasaur needed
Shaman - Evolve/Devolve (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/919481-cheap-lich-king-victory-deck-no-legendaries-or with some minor changes)
Warlock - Murlocs (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/920286-pve-lich-king-extremely-budget-warlock with some minor changes, no Megasaur needed)
Warrior - Patron (http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/917942-lich-king-easy-win-with-patron-warrior)
However I think that with the exception of Druid and Warrior he can be defeated by Murlocs before Phase 2.
