How-to Defeat Xol the Unscathed

One of the key things to know about Xol is that at the end of her turn her hero power will trigger followed by an emote. The emote indicates which one of the following beams she has received:

• “Fatality” – Beam of Death: Destroy all damaged enemy minions.
• “Fatigue” – Beam of Decay: Destroy 1 of your opponent’s Mana Crystal.
• “Fear” – Beam of Fear: Shuffle a random enemy minion into your opponent’s deck.
• “Flame” – Beam of Fire: Deal 2 damage to all enemy minions.
• “Flummox” – Beam of Confusion: Take control of a random enemy minion.
• “Frost” – Beam of Frost: Freeze a random enemy minion and the minions next to it.

It will be important for you to take note on which of these she has and play your turn accordingly. If she gets a Beam of Confusion it’s probably best not to play a single big minion on the board. If she gets Beam of Fear then you should play a minion that potentially has Battlecry and can be useful again later. If she gets Beam of Fire then it would be best not to play a bunch of cheap low-health minions etc.

One card you are pretty much hoping she will play is Howlfiend. You want this card on the board because if you are able you can control when she completes Lakkari Sacrifice and can then potentially force her to discard the Nether Portal. You would ideally not want to deal with spawning imps every single turn as well as dealing with her beams.

Another key is being very aware of what she has discarded. She’s running a couple Cataclysm and Dark Bargain as AOE removal, but she also has a Deathwing, so once these cards are gone you will be pretty much free to play whatever you want.

Although she has multiple AOE removals it seems like your best bet is multiple minions on the board so you aren’t just losing them to Beam of Confusion and Fear. The hope is that she will inevitably discard the majority of the AOE allowing you to consistently get in damage. She has no way to gain health back, making an aggressive deck with semi-high health minions one of the best ways to crush her.

If you are lucky with what beams she get you can also just out-value her (especially if you force her to discard the quest reward). She discards a lot of her cards so other than getting a beam every turn she will generally be low on cards.

Hopefully these tips help you get the upper-hand in your epic duel with Xol the Unscathed! Good luck with all of your future dungeon runs!
