Changes to Alexstrasza coming with Heroic Plague Quarter?

by - 10 years ago

Spoiler Warning: The following post contains information regarding Curse of Naxxramas: The Plague Quarter Heroic Gameplay. If you do not wish to be spoiled, do not read on!

While there has been no official announcement from Blizzard at this time, early Plague Quarter game play from Europe shows a potential change to the way Alexstrasza will interact on heroic setting. The following video, in German, was posted by User MC Hell on YouTube mere hours ago, showing what Kel’Thuzad has to say about such a move.

The English translation is:

This is heroic Naxxramas! I won’t stand for such cheap tactics here!

It appears that not only will Alexstrsza’s battle cry not allowed, but the card is destroyed by Kel’Thuzad, leaving you with no minion and zero mana crystals. You have been warned!

Editor’s Note: This looks like this might only affect the Loatheb encounter

    I’m suddenly glad I didn’t scrap all my cards to craft an Alex.

    That’s interesting the player chose to use Alex on himself and not the boss, effectively doing 30+ dmg.

  5. Alex is needed for Freeze Mage to handle Heroic, but that’s about it. I’m happy seeing it get tanked and force players to play creatively.
