Heroic Military Quarter

[Deleted]

How did you go about it? Personally, I simply ran a gimmick priest deck. You know the deal - divine spirit, inner fire, big HP taunts, the shizz. Instructor was rather easy - thoughtstole two of his weapons on third attempt, all I had to do from then on was put up a wall of taunted HP for him to go through that lasted a few turns. Gothik took a very similar deck - a huge wall of taunts, with a bunch of Pyros, Aboms, and the CoH combo to get rid of the spectral guys until I needed them. Once the board was comfortable, slam the combo on something with high HP - for me it was a Spectral Rider leftover after clearing - and smash his face in. And the Four Horsemen - oh so surprisingly - took... a huge wall of taunts and aoe effects until a 16/16 Deathlord slammed into Rivendare's face like a sledgehammer.


Honestly, this HC quarter was kinda boring. In the other two at least last bosses were fun little puzzles - here it was just a roll of dice until my starting hand had what was necessary into cruise control to victory. Doing the entire thing, from opening the wing to class challenges, normal and heroic 100% cleared took me about 40 minutes - and that's with concedes after an unfavourable draft.

Not attempted this yet, but its nice to see that my priest deck from the last quarter can easily be modified to have taunts and clear this.

I did all three normal bosses with Ramp Druid though. Poison Seeds on the Four Horsemen is GODLY.

Mass dispel into double mind blast double holy smite was pretty fun on heroic horsemen.

Doomsayer and Equality don't work. Personally, for Four Horsemen, I used as much taunt as possible running a druid deck. Took a couple of tries but it did the job. Haven't tried the first 2 yet.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Seeds are disabled on hc, so keep that in mind.

Eh, a bit TOO RNG reliant for my tastes. How many times did you re-try to get those 5 specific cards in hand on turns 4/5? :P

Didn't need to get those by that turn, I had a taunt wall up otherwise, it was just fun to execute so I figured why not. Once you have control of the match nothing is really harmful anyways. :P

Did Horsemen heroic pretty easily with a priest deck, killed 2, silenced the 3rd, killed him with Mind Blast and a minion.
Currently bashing my head against Rivendare and getting increasingly frustrated at how cheap everything about that boss is. He just has wayyyyy too much damage, and if you don't have gigantic taunts up by turn 3 he'll just keep popping new Runeblades and fuck you up.
Didn't try Gothik heroic yet.
Don't really like the quarter overall, as you said, it's even more filled with conceding if you don't get a perfect opening hand, and I really don't like Razuvious.
I really don't feel like bots should (always) get the coin. Runeblade on turn 2 from Razuvious is just annoying.

Something to keep in mind for Horsemen is that they have no minions in their deck, so there's no reason not to use the 2/8 deathrattle taunt, and having cheap, high health taunts is all you need to get to the point where you can combo them.

EDIT: Holy crap, just beat Razuvious.. how many damn Runeblades does he have? I soaked one with the initiates, one with Mogu'shans, Oozed 2, Harrison'd 1...

I can confirm that Poison Seeds works on Heroic, but it's a slow play and still leaves him with 6 damage on the board, 8 if he had repentance up.

Razuvious took me 3 tries with a priest deck
Gothik took me 1 try with a druid deck.
Horsemen took me 2 tries with a priest deck.

Not sure if i was just lucky with my opening hands and draws or if this wing was just easier.

[Tradu]

Just killed Gothik, finishing the wing. Gothik was the most interesting fight, in my opinion. Razuvious was frustrating(to me, because I'm bad and it took me ages to finally get the deck right), and Horsemen had a nice idea but were just really easy(with the obvious priest counter)

heroic gothik

holy shit i can't do it lol

tried so many decks, furthest i got was with freeze mage but you just lose due to the ticking damage haha

jesus

[ophion1990]

Turn 2 coin blade, turn 3 attack and use second blade, turn 5 third blade... Yeah the RNG on these fights is just wonderful. Sad thing is I couldn't even punish him because I didn't draw ooze. I feel like the fights just get more RNG bound with every wing, maybe I just get more unlucky. Losing to them just stings all the more because they play terrible (corruption a minion and then pain it for example).

does your hero become immune if you steal one of those with Cabal Shadow Priest? if so, you just found an easy way to do the whole thing lol.

Yeah, he does, but Rivendare just throws a Corruption on the guy you stole.

or the plethora of other spells he has in his deck the thing that pissed me most were crazy alchemists in gothics deck. I was like "okay, ill just flametognue those spirits and get rid of them at the same time, neat", then he just crazy alchemists flametongue... rage!

[Polarthief]

Two words: FUCK. HORSEMEN.

I thought Gothik was a bitch; Horsemen took me over 5 attempts with assorted decks and then an additional 15+ purely using a modified Freeze Mage; I only won because I got perfect RNG and he got perfectly negative RNG. It was bullshit.

pro tip for the Four Horsemen - Use Doomsayer

Next you'll say use Equality, too. You just LOVE to watch the world burn, don't you?

PS: For people unaware, Equality and Doomsayer are BANNED on Heroic. Dunno about Normal; you can use any shit deck on Normal though anyways
