Pray but honestly he is a bastard of a fight. I will suggest going druid poison seeds are amazing vs him also power of the wild helps. Add in a few good taunts which druids have in spades a couple of taunt enablers and some healing and you will get him. Poison seeds turning all the ping critters into treants and filling your side for a double savage roar the next turn feels so good.

Tried poison seen method, at the point of being able to drop seeds (because obviously i havent got wild growths or innervates to drop) he gets a full board of 2/2's i get maybe 2?
Already low health <18, unless i get lucky (woopee) and get 2 healing touchs, im boned either way,
Im usually not a quitter, but when im reduced to tears over such a trivial thing, its time to put it down and just quit
No matter which deck i play, It is just not giving me the needed cards to even have a chance
If by some miracle i get 1 of the few cards that *Could* make a difference, he coins 2 undertakers, followed by 2 chargers next turn.
Which is 2x 4/3's and 2/3's
How to come back from that, really.
I stacked the odds and built a custom deck with as many cheap removal and "aura" buffs as I could get my hands on. In general I've found Shaman best at normal and Druid best at Heroic - though there are still several deck variations I haven't tried yet.
Although, I should admit that my first win on Heroic was with a Fatigue deck, and even then I only barely beat him.
I used something similar, but worse, since I only had one of Doomsayer, Oracle, Ice Block and no Archmage... Think I subbed a Cone of Cold, 2x Sunfury Protector, and another Flamestrike. It took 6 or 7 tries to get him, and the kill was with a damn good draw, like is the case with most of the heroic bosses.
After that , Four Horseman went down in two attempts with Priest. 9/9 heroic, yay!
this is the deck I used to take him down on heroic, only took 2 or 3 times to get a decent draw. if you don't have rag or sylvanas you probably can replace them with ogres or some other beefy minion, or possibly other legendaries or tech cards. everything else is pretty cheap. good luck!
Anyone have experience beating Heroic Gothick with a budget deck? My collection doesn't suck too bad, but I miss a lot of key cards for decks like Pyroblast, a second Doomsayer, Ragnaros the Firelord. etc. I'm like two cards away from any one of these decks.
military heroic quarter is actually the easiest wing so far!!
plague was much harder..
heroic quarters depends a lot on luck... if you cant beat it for the next hour or two.. take a break.. go again next time when you calmed down.
not many can beat it easily in one go.. even with perfect deck, perfect hand, still depends on luck.. i used the shaman deck suggested by hearthpwn and it worked after many tries.. save rock biters and flame toungues for your spectral trades

subjective, plague i won in about 2 hours,
Faerlina was hardest one for me, till i read a strat, applied strat, and won, doing that against gothick, doesnt help, if you dont get perferct opener, and then every card pull from then on, you wont win, which i find ridiculous
I have been banging my head against gothick for about 7 hours, if not more,
try making a palladin control deck to outlast him, with high value taunts like sunwalker and tyrion and the new nax taunt. What you have to do is survive the early/midgame with equality and aldor peacekeeper and holy light. Then when he is almost out of cards your heavy taunters will carry you trough the match. It worked for me in one try.

yep trying this again now, got him to 11 hp thru fatigures, but didnt draw a single heal lol - woooo

There an obscene amount of self-healing potential in there .. loads of taunts .. and heaps of tools for giving the Spectral minions taunt and/or attack power so you can get them killed.
I used something similar to this deck and got him down in the second attempt. The class challenge kind of hints on what you should do against him on heroic. Cheers.
I didn't have a lot of time to play last night, but I'm also stuck on Gothick and you know what...I'm happy about that. The first 2 quarters were not a huge challenge (talking about regular mode...I haven't yet tried Heroic) with the 2nd being *slightly* tougher. I'm glad that we have to really think and try different things with this latest one. I hope the next sections are even more of a challenge.

I've tried 8 decks so far, impossible to defeat this bastard. I think that the "deck makers" miss the point.
Can't use the "stall mage deck", i don't have doomsayer-alexstraza and archmage antonidus.
Plz help !
Ii have most the cards in the 'this deck will win' decks, but its the draws that screw me,
need a heal card to pop out? just one? please? nope, here have a card that wont help, every. single. time
This is what I did, using the deck linked from the front page article - http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/84740-f2p-gothik-the-harvester-paladin
