The Fight
- The Headless Horseman starts off with 30 Health. His hero power, Slash, deals random damage to your side of the field.
- Many of the cards in the Headless Horseman's deck are able to deal AoE damage to you - gross!
- After defeating the Headless Horseman, he removes his head (Headless Horseman's Head), a 2/35 minion.
- His head deals 2 damage randomly split to your side of the field at the start of each of his turns.
- Destroying the head, as indicated on the card text, wins you the game.

Braindead rng boring as fuck brawl.
I won with the cat and the witch first try, but pirate seems impossible. I know I did it last time we had this brawl, but no idea how.
They nerfed that murloc you start with
people whining cause its hard xD whats happening to this generation, so lame, they only like it when its easy and not a challenge at all.
And it's actually far easier than many other PvEs.
Dear Blizzord, prease send me fowty dust. I perssed restard buttOn 326 times Never Lucky
Took me way too many tries to do this. Finished with Cat and got a golden Millhouse Manastorm in my pack. Not sure if i should be happy or if this was a sick joke
What a retard built the catsuit deck for this brawl...
I don't want to work for my 40 dust waaaaaah
I don't know why all the complaints. Certainly takes skill and some luck with the cards you pull. Just gotta trade and get rid of his minions. By turn 6 he is top-decking and it is easy from there. It's like arena. Took 5 tries but won with the beast deck even if the Pirate deck looks more promising.
It's supposed to be a challenge... but with that challenge more should have been offered than just a free classic pack for winning.
I would have preferred something more than just a classic pack. A new halloween cardback seems better and more fitting for a reward for something that is a challenge to beat.
I won 3 times in a row with cat. Useless it is not. It's just a different strategy for every deck, which is nice.
how do you handle the early pumpkin pressure if you can't draw claw / charge beast? it's just auto concede after that. even if you take the board, you still can't win because not enough healing exists
It's easy to do considering any damage to an opponent gets you a 1/1, and a couple of 1/1's kill a 2/2 and leave you another 1/1. Maybe I was just lucky to get alley cat in he mulligan every time, but it sure was easy that way.
Cat is good if you can flood your board (which is kinda easy with his Hero Power) and cast Infest.
Still, you need a ton of luck, but I think that's the case for the other costumes as well.
salty 50 dust, thanks blizzard
Better than nothing man
He forgot to clarify that he got Manic Soulcaster'd. It's really fucking stupid when the boss draws and plays another head that didn't come with his deck.
Totally bs brawl . The blizzard can fk themselves if they want to make me play this shit
Too hard for you?
mad because bad lol
