Showdown at Blackrock Mountain is This Week's Tavern Brawl
These two epic bosses of Blackrock Mountain are settling things once and for all... with your help!
Trivia
- This is the fifth time we've seen this brawl.
- This brawl made its debut on June 17, 2015.
- This brawl was the first ever Tavern Brawl! You're playing history!
- Games take place on the Blackrock Mountain gameboard with Molten Core card backs
How it Works
- Queue up and receive either Nefarian or Ragnaros as your hero.
- Ragnaros starts with 60 Health. His hero power is Molten Rage when initially summoned, which switches to DIE, INSECT! after Sulfuras has been destroyed.
- Nefarian starts with 30 Health and 30 Armor. His hero power is Wild Magic.
- Each deck contains very special cards with unique playstyles.
- Nefarian has an early game advantage in that he starts with extra mana crystals (4) and he can drop some great minions. Tons of RNG through his hero power though, so hope for the best!
- Ragnaros is weaker early game but if you get to turn 6 after always using your weapon, you get an amazing hero power. Make sure you mulligan for cheap cards to help!

Head on over to our brawl forum to talk about the brawl.
The worst ever.
First try with Ragnaros and won .
Ragnaros is weak in first few turns, but he has a lot of cards that flat out melt Nerfarian's big minions.
If you want to a free win, sure, just concede until you get Nefarian and maybe your opponent will be doing the same, but Ragnaros can win on his own.
Disagree. Having cards like 2 mana 4/5 with Windfury and similar stuff, plus auto-equipped weapon and - if draw completely screws over - an emergency Magma Rager at turn 2, is the opposite of weak. Consistently crushing Nefarian players everytime this brawl shows up.
Ragnaros is good
How to win:
Get Nefarian.
If you're not Nefarian, concede until you do.
To be fair we have not seen this one for a long long time.
And it still is better than deck building brawls. (Yes, fxxk you herolism brawl)
So I do not complain.
wrong
Ragnaros is really good
I'm not wrong though. I'm sure Ragnaros is really good, but Nefarian is just better, even after the buff to Ragnaros. Nefarian starts the game on 4 mana allowing you to play a 7/7 on turn 1 and you just snowball from there with the crazy minions in the deck.
You are wrong, though. The only way to win with Nefarian is be super lucky on your random spells, providing the Rag you play against actually plays him well.
This again?
Just to inform people who haven't played this Brawl yet. If your hero is Ragnaros, please concede. If your hero is Nefarian, congratulations, you got a free pack! That's basically what it boils down to. I saw this manifest on the Asia servers first and it's really practical and smooth!
wow this brawl AGAIN?!
I'm happy to see it back: very flavorful and unique. Also #TeamRag
I would rather play Manastorm at the Crossroads.
The only history I'd rather play more is top 2 or top 3 ._.
