Notes

To edit these notes, go to Template:Dragonqueen Alexstrasza notes.

  • The Battlecry effect cannot generate another Dragonqueen Alexstrasza.
  • This card checks your current deck for cards, not your hand or deck in the beginning of the match. This means that cards shuffled in like Bombs or Dream Portals will disrupt the Battlecry.

Lore[edit | edit source]

Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
Alexstrasza the Life-Binder, Leader Queen and Aspect of the red dragonflight One of the five Dragon Aspects and Aspect of Life, is the guardian of all life in the world of Azeroth. She was one of five great dragons chosen by the titans to be empowered with a portion of the Pantheon's power and rule over her flight while they watched over Azeroth and its inhabitants. The titans also appointed her queen of all dragons. Alexstrasza loves all living creatures and protects them, and only those who menace the dragonflights or the world face her wrath.
With the rise of  Deathwing during World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, Alexstrasza took a very active role in defending Azeroth against the Aspect of Death, eventually ordering her entire dragonflight to war against the Black Dragonflight. Alexstrasza, along with her fellow Aspects, gave their all to stop Deathwing once and for all, but lost much of their power in the process.
"Life is my Aspect, Dark One, and I, like all mothers, know both the pain and wonders that entails!"

Like the other Aspects, Alexstrasza first appeared as a legendary minion in Classic.
