Boss Overview
The Steel Sentinel is the second boss in the Hall of Explorers wing of the The League of Explorers adventure.
Sigh. Another encounter we don't really know anything about other than his Hero Power. Fortunately, for this fight, it actually says quite a bit about it though so let's take a look at that!
- You can't deal more than 1 damage to him on each attack, this sadly includes attacking his minions on heroic.
- One Attack minions / weapons are likely to be some of the most value in the game, since you aren't spending mana for an attack stat that is irrelevant.
- Dreadsteed could see some pretty good value here.
- Mogu'shan Warden.. possibly. Really depends on his deck composition, but it could make quite a few trades!
- Baron Rivendare + Unstable Ghoul?
- View all 1 attack minions/weapons
His Hero Powers are:
- Normal Hero Power: Platemail Armor
- Heroic Hero Power: Platemail Armor
Pro Tips and Strategy
- Super annoying fight on Heroic compared to normal - now the minions can only take 1 damage from each attack.
- Divine Shield, Armor, and Taunts is the backbone of The Steel Sentinel's deck.
- Knife Jugglers plus token spam can help clear out the Divine Shields, and hit him in the face with effective damage.
- Equality makes quick work of his higher health minions.

Posted Apr 24, 2021 (Forged in the Barrens)I used my rush deck so I'd have enough to kill off his minions. I did it on the first try, but my RNG was mediocre. I appreciated having my Alexstrasza the Life-Binder as I was down to 12 points and the healing was helpful. Cards that summon a lot of 1/1s like Onyxia the Broodmother or any windfury cards or a combination of are good since you can only take away one point at a time. E.T.C., God of Metal would have been great, but the guy was dead before it came up in my deck.
If you're playing a mage you can use the Coldarra Drake with the Garrison Commander. Magic missile cards like Arcane Missiles, Violet Spellwing, Greater Arcane Missiles or Rhonin would be helpful. A Wrapped Golem seems like it would be incredibly helpful.
Hunters with Coldarra Drake, Garrison Commander, Felfire Deadeye and Feral Gibberer would be helpful. Any card that summons lackeys, mulitple minions, etc. would be good. Not a hard guy to take down.

Posted Mar 3, 2017 (Aggro Downfall)I was having a rough time with this guy, so came here, tried this deck, and it took three tries to get him down with it (due to bad rng with the first two), so this does work pretty well IMHO, thanks! :)

Posted Aug 8, 2016 (Old Gods)For those of us who don't have Kel'Thuzad, here's a budget deck to defeat the Sentinel on Heroic:
It's dependent on getting a Knife Juggler early.

Posted May 7, 2016 (Old Gods)I got him on the third try with this deck. Just steal or kill anything he puts down until he plays Brawl, then put down Kel'Thuzad and a taunt while buffing C'Thun for a finisher. If you have to play C'Thun early for some board clear, kill it ASAP if he hasn't played Enter the Coliseum so it doesn't kill your Kel'Thuzad.
Acidic Swamp Ooze is probably better than Auchenai Soulpriest and two Mogu'shan Wardens would be good, but i only have one somehow.

Posted Jan 19, 2016 (Explorers)The AI will ignore Animated Armor if it could normally do lethal in 1 or 2 turns. If it would make lethal this turn then the AI will go face :)
