The third set of the Galakrond’s Awakening adventure has just become available to play – and it leans quite heavily on the Auto-Attack mechanic first seen in One Night in Karazhan’s Chess encounter. As usual, a plethora of OTK decks can easily get the job done, but all in one scenarios you can go with a different approach for a more back-and-forth gameplay experience should you fancy that kind of thing.

The Simple Solution

As it’s become standard, the Heroic encounters use (almost) the same decks as their Story mode counterparts, with the higher Health total and cheaper Hero Power serving as the main source of difficulty in most cases. As usual, As such, decks like Holy Wrath Paladin and Mecha'thun Warlock will easily get you through most encounters – except for Dragonslayer Skruk who requires a different OTK approach because of some nasty tech choices in its deck. Otherwise, the combo decks we’ve listed in our Week 1 guide will still serve you well here, but we’ve also come up with a set of new recommendations for you.

    Something problematic when doing these adventures was not having access to legendaries and epics that facilitated some matches, giving budget decks to beat the adventure in heroic would be useful :v

      I think inner fire combo priest might do the trick. Besides the combo pieces you run a lot of card draw, silence and boar for the otk.

  2. Butterkase

    I used Highlander Mage, ResPriest and Combo Priest. As mentioned in the article, ResPriest is very solid against the auto-attack encounters, but it is also very effective against Rotwing, especially if you run Albatross, had a ton of fun with that. Wild boar combo priest I used for the Skruk encounter and for the remaining encounters Highlander Mage was decent enough.

    Silence Priest with Alexstrasza is a great answer to Skruk. He gives you 4-5 turns to build a board (Eerie Statue, Ancient Watcher, Purify, Unsleeping Soul) before throwing buffed minions. Answer with silence effects or removals (Silence, Big Game Hunter, Power Word Death, Kabul Songstealer) and you will have a great board for OTK on turn 9 after Alexstrasza.

    Mecha'thun Warlock is still able to kill Skruk.

      Did you use Mecha'thun warlock to beat all the boss's?
