Template:Blood of The Ancient One strategy
Blood of the Ancient One is close to a win condition in itself. However, getting both Bloods onto the board at the same time may present a challenge, largely due to the card's 9 mana cost and likely targeting by enemy players.
Cost reduction effects like 
Emperor Thaurissan can help, as can extra mana from sources such as 
Innervate, 
Lightning Bloom and 
The Coin (at least in combination with cost reduction effects). Put into battlefield effects can be extremely helpful, such as 
Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound, 
Varian Wrynn, or 
Barnes. If cost reduction cannot be achieved satisfactorily then hiding it behind a large Taunt is a good alternative. Copy effects like Faceless Manipulator and Gang Up can be helpful in providing extra chances to summon The Ancient One. Herald Volazj is especially effective; if played with a single Blood of The Ancient One on your board, The Ancient One will be summoned at the end of your turn, almost making Volazj a substitute Blood. Another noteworthy synergy is the Rogue's Shadowcaster, which will create a 1-mana 1/1 copy of an already existing Blood that can easily be used to summon The Ancient One. 
Sonya Shadowdancer can be used to exploit the forced death phase and get you a extreme amount of The Ancient ones.
Despite its 30/30 stats, don't forget that a simple Hex, Polymorph or 
Sabotage can effortlessly remove your The Ancient One, while an 
Entomb or worse Mind Control can turn it against you. Due to the destruction of the Bloods in its creation process, and the effort required to pull off the combo, this can leave the player in very poor position if the opponent has a good counter.
Because The Ancient One is summoned at the end of the turn, the opponent has a full turn to counter it before the player can use it to attack. Conversely, the opponent cannot directly stop the player from summoning The Ancient One, other than through Secrets, except by removing Bloods whenever they see them. With cost reduction effects or cards like Varian Wrynn, two Bloods can be put into action in a single turn, making it impossible for the opponent to prevent The Ancient One's summoning.
Many Priest cards can preform such strategies, with cards like 
Zerek's Cloning Gallery and 
Mirage Caller.
