Notes[edit | edit source]
- There is no special rule of this encounter in Story and Heroic mode.
- Alexstrasza is not prohibited in this encounter.
Strategy[edit | edit source]
Story[edit | edit source]
- Assuming that you wish to complete the battle as quickly as possible, a combination of two Evocations, Archmage's Insight, and Archmage Antonidas can quickly deplete the health of the boss with repeated use of Fireball, which will be given when you play Archmage's Insight with Antonidas in play already, which will reduce the cost of any spell you cast to 0. This allows you to chain damage on the boss, and defeat it on the first turn. This strategy is not always reliable, however.
- This particular battle is all about spell and resource management, which is why you should make use of your Kirin Tor Elementals and Archmage's Apprentices to conserve and reuse spells like Astral Portal and various others.
Heroic[edit | edit source]
- Alexstrasza can easily deplete the health and challenge of the fight, making control decks powerful.
