One Night in Karazhan has dropped and the Prologue mission (free) and the The Parlor (first wing) is now open.

Two of the boss battles on these use pre-constructed decks and I provided some videos below of the heroic versions. The other two heroic bosses require you to develop your own decks, and in this instance I found I could use the same deck list with ease for both encounters. If you’d like to see what cards you get for completing the wings this week make sure to check our spoiler list.

Prologue – Prince Malchezaar

This fight is all about recycling your spells and trying to get really big turns where you can pop off spells, get a ton of spell damage and just destroy your opponent. You can be more selective of getting certain spells back than I was, but it still seemed to work.

Silverware Golem

He puts out two 1/1 plates for free with his hero power and has cards that will buff them up. The trick here is to keep the board clear as much as possible while also abusing AoE spells with Grim Patron and Frothing Berseker. This fight is relatively easy with the deck list below.

Magic Mirror

The difference between this and the normal version is he now only copies 1/1 minions for himself. So if you play one of he plays one, he gets a 1/1 copy. Because of this, the same deck we used for Silverware Golem works very well for this one and the strategy is very similar. Keep his board clear and abuse AoE spells with Grim Patron and Frothing Berserker. You can also abuse Acolyte of Pain to cause him to draw more cards and eventually fatigue as well.

Chess

This fight is the most difficult of the group this week. You have to mulligan pretty hard for a rook and a knight and then pray that you’ll get your Queen on curve and have a bit of luck in what your opponent draws. One of the strategies is to not play on first turn and you always want to position your weakest pawn to the left while making sure you can hit 2 enemy minions every turn. If you can push their board and get a huge turn with a lot of pawns, put your rooks and queen on the outside right for maximum damage.

This fight really comes down to luck, but also takes a bit of skill to navigate your win since you need to push early due to the fact you have a tiny card pool and your opponent can overrun you very quickly.
