(Hearthstone) Defeating The Lich King: Warrior, Shaman, and Druid

[@WorgenHuntard]

I love how with every class you kinda need highly specialized decks for the encounter and with druid you can just run ladder jade

[@MrRavenwrath]

There is a sweet druid cheese deck: 1x Jade Idol 2x Gadgetzan Auctioneer 2x Innervate 2x Jade Blossom 23x Minion with the cost of 3 or less.

[@dasistmeinnamedasistmeinna9662]

NICE! i didnt think of using his "special attack" to your advantage

[@sifidickenson4461]

Ravenwrath hey man does that really work cause im a f2p and dont have jades.Druid is the only one i cant beat arthas with but i can craft those cause are not too expensive

[@RykoCrucem]

Arthas Menethil may have to do it two or 3 times but it does work. Mostly cust if you draw bad and he puts down a bunch of small drops it can be hard

[@samuelm2412]

Ravenwrath hemet too

[@therrogue1193]

Arthas Menethil no need ,just ramp your mana to 10 and try to survive

[@hakanbuyuktopcu3720]

Speeding that draw of lich king is really helpful, thanks for thinking about us

[@codegavran]

When playing Jade Druid against the LK, you can put in pretty much every good early game creature (1-3 cost) in your deck, if they're in your opening hand, cool you play them that's when they're good, and the ones in your deck get removed giving you massive deck thinning (and thus consistency - and since you have Jade Idol you don't fatigue ever anyway.) Not needed by Kibler obviously but it worked well for me.

[@herogamer555]

Loved that expert commentary from Shiro.

[@Ragnathok]

For shaman, I personnaly went with Barnes and Kel'Thuzad as my only minions, as well as Ancestral Spirit and Reincarnate to create an indestructible board full of Kel'Thuzads (and a few Barnes) :)

[@osmium6832]

I still have blood pouring out of my ears after Kibler's scream when he got blizzard'ed during that shaman game. I'd really appreciate some sort of volume equalizer on the video for when he spikes above 100 decibels.

[@Jelmiz]

for everyone who is strugglin: try murlocs, warleaders, those 1/2 which get +1 attack and all that other murloc stuff, you win easy before turn 7 if u get good murlocs

[@qarsiseer]

I used Magma Rager in my Druid deck vs the lich king. 11/10 would recommend

[@RafaelLima-wx6lz]

Druid: 1,2 and 3 cost minions + 2 innervate + 2 Jade Idol + 2 Gadgetzan Auctioneer Hunter: 13 creatures (low cost aggro hunter and taunt ones) + 2 Molten Giants + Spells, Mulligan until you get molten giants and play 2 molten giants on turn 2 Mage: 2 Kabal Adept + 2 Mana Bind + 2 Molten Giants + Low cost mage cards like ice blocks, ice barriers, frostbolts, fireballs and maybe a flamestrike, mulligan until you get Kabal Adept and Mana Bind or 2 Molten Giants (kabal adept, mana bind and molten giant on hand is gg) Restart the Game multiples times until you get the perfect hand (or near as possible)

[@Guacira_G]

mito,deve ter demorado horas pra liberar o Arthas.

[@sahityamsri]

Played a similar deck to your shaman one. Aaaaand I beat him on my first try. Kiblers a beast

[@yourgod25]

Murloc quest shaman works great also!

[@cellamuert]

That sindragosa line was pretty great

[@fablestory229]

Here's what I won with. It took me a couple of hours but I finally got Arthas. Druid - Jade Idols net deck won me it on my first try. Shaman(run devolve) & Rogue & Paladin - All three i've ran with Murlocs, make sure to use the signature wild murloc cards. Old-murk eye is strong but Murloc Tidecaller is just as good, use both if you can. Warrior - Save Brawl on the Frostmourne turn, and play the 0/7 taunt and kel'thuzad together. That'll cost 10 mana so save up. The Lich King won't attack the 0/7 taunt, but his remaining 2/6 will so get damage and armor for every damage taken(Siege Engine, Berserker and Armorsmith) and make sure to spam your hero power(Garrison Commander works well with Justicar Trueheart but you don't need her). Mage - Heal/secrets, make sure to run a Molten Golem, on your first turn you generally want something that can kill the first threat and something to sustain yourself to protect your hero. Ice Block on first turn or some type of low cost minion healer. You could run a double molten deck but that prevents you from getting Reno Jackson. I recommend running Branz Bronzebeard as well for better sustain. Priest - This was easy, I won on my first try with the summon and resurrect legendary minions from the deck style. You don't need much honestly, just make sure to run Shadow Horror for the Frostmourne turn and summon your strongest minions with your resurrection spells. Hunter - I focused on buffing my Hyena's with adapt and Vicious Fledgling to kill the Lich King before the Frostmourne turn. It took me a couple of tries but I did beat him with a buffed Hyena and Fledgling before the 7th turn. Make sure to run low cost damage spells and low-mid tier beasts. Warlock - I ran a Reno Jackson deck with the death knight. This one is fun to experiment with but I didn't do too much studying on it so I can't give truly good advice, just make sure you have a board clear for the Frostmourne and strong board presence after you wipe the 2/6's.

[@fablestory229]

but you bothered to write a reply, thanks for caring.

[@kank8016]

paladin?

[@FireSkyFX]

Jade idol ? I think all cards below 3 cost will be destroyed

[@jgaringan]

6/9 of the decks I beat him with were with regular murlocs (only ones I didn't were Shaman, Warlock and Druid, but I'm sure murlocs would work just fine for them too), just get a good opening curve and hope he doesn't use Anti Magic Shell or wipe you with Blizzard. Warrior required a bit of tech to get past frostmourne - instead of using brawl, which I didn't have, I just used Commanding Shout to kill the spirits without losing too many minions. As long as you get out of that phase with some minions alive you should be able to finish him.

[@fablestory229]

I used Murlocs for the Paladin one, make sure to run equality and concentration for the board clears. Old-murk eye is especially great on this one because it gains attack for every Murloc on the field, and since the Lich King summons every minion he kills to his side of the field you'll have even more attack to work with.

[@ryanedmonds5950]

I don't think arthas is going to buy your beard.

[@dasistmeinnamedasistmeinna9662]

gaaaah

[@hoangpham1515]

ryan edmonds lol

[@shareefs625]

How he release the 1/1 effect on minions cards?

[@Hamsterhoden54]

Thanks for the video i beat the lich king now with that warrior deck from you :D

[@clintondowling]

Thanks for the shaman, tried other lists and this was first to do so, about 3rd try.

[@davidshu9014]

Hey Kibler, I have already defeated the Lich King with all 9 classes actually 7 classes could use cheap murloc decks to defeat lich king Here is my deck for mage, priest, rogue, and warlock for this challenge Murloc Tinyfin × 2 Grimscale Oracle × 2 Murloc Raider × 2 Murloc Tidecaller × 2 Bilefin Tidehunter × 2 Blowgill Sniper × 2 Bluegill Warrior × 2 Murloc Tidehunter × 2 Rockpool Hunter × 2 Coldlight Oracle × 2 Coldlight Seer × 2 Murloc Warleader × 2 Primalfin Lookout × 2 Gentle Megasaur × 2 Finja, the Flying Star × 1 Leeroy Jenkins × 1 Shaman easy win with the same deck, just replace Coldlight Oracles , one Lookout, and Finja to: Call in the Finishers × 2 Everyfin is awesome × 2 Hunter should bring no more than 18 murlocs, fill the rest space of your deck with spells and weapons, then what you need to do is to draw four murlocs in the first turn Paladin could use the deck above as well, replace Coldlight oracles to: Vilefin Inquisitor × 2 Then avoid your murlocs to die The key thoughts of these deck are: Buff Murloc Tidecaller with Rockpool hunter in the first and second turns. Summon as many murlocs as you can Use Murloc Warleaders, Coldlight Seers, and Gentle Megasaurs to buff your murlocs Then kill Lich King before TURN 7 !!! BEFORE TURN 7!!! Why murlocs? 'Cause Lich king is weak to clear the board at the beginning. Kibler, may you have some tries on this and show it to us? I guess you can have some better understanding on this than me. Others could try these decks as well. Conclusion: Murlocs are overwhelming.

[@davidshu9014]

Warning: NO BLIZZARD ON TURN 6.

[@OmniDarkz]

Hey thanks helped me beat shaman on second try

[@xCrystal03]

If you fatiguing yourself while killing your opponent you will die. Although I've only seen instances where the fatigue damage is well over the life + the armor so no clue if the armor would end up saving you

[@bubbli9798]

11:12 you can hear shiro bark through the speed up lol

[@pierpaolomercurio]

I got my arthas right now. I felt a legitimate rush of pleasure

[@wouju9600]

Pierpaolo Mercurio now you don't need to mastu- do "research"

[@rusduderus]

murlocs and fledgelings?

[@haggisllama2630]

Pierpaolo Mercurio and

[@CGoody564]

I didn't mind him killing my first jade. I considered it a +1/+1 investment on future jades

[@phuuc8075]

this feel like a true boss... not like the previous adventure that you play for like 1~2 hours and then never tough again...

[@CrouchinCorner]

I wish I could see the kib's reaction on his first time playing each class against lich king

[@hakanbuyuktopcu3720]

This really is the best expansion ever.

[@jordanburton9819]

He makes it look at lost easier than it is people! It's a pretty difficult wing!

[@CGoody564]

The one class I have had a real hard time beating him with is mage. Saw a strat involving having kabal lackey and counterspell in opener to negate the 1hp spell... Didn't even attempt that shit. Had an annoying enough time doing Hunter hoping Barnes rolled yshaarj-yshaarj-ragnaros (which didn't happen, it went barnes-yshaarj-ragnaros, held him off til turn 10 when I played yshaarj-ragnaros); I wasn't going to try another strat that involved being an extreme lucksack and restarting until I was in a viable position for being a lucksack to matter. Trying murloc mage now. Got him to 7hp and died, gonna keep trying til I beat him with mage. You shall suffer, dreadful Lich King. Sadly if I get him in lethal range on turn 5, it's always turn 6 blizzard. What a douche. Also, the 1 Mana 1/1 murloc with lifesteal really helps if you can get it bufffed.

[@sergiopietra8307]

Yeah mage was definitely the most difficult and the most annoying. Is the only class that requires a specific opening hand and subsequent draws to even have a chance and even then is difficult. I had a crazy experience: I tried without the lackey/counterspell combo dozens of time and always failed. Then in desperation I ended up switching a couple of cards to introduce the lackey/counter combo. First try with the new deck: lackey in the opening hand but no counterspell, got ice barrier instead. I said, fuck it, let's try anyway. Played without even believing that I would get past turn 5 and instead I ended up crushing him. Shocking and ultra satisfying.

[@Pit1993x]

Mage was pretty easy imo. Restarted until i had kabal lackey and mana bind (to get the lich king himself down to 1 life and 30 armor) + at least one molten giant. if he can't remove the giant you just pummel his face for a few turns and win. didn't take me 10 minutes to do that. ;)

[@MrTohawk]

Reminds me of getting the right hunter opener for double windfury Hyenas

[@kabu506]

"We wanna pop Aya" Oh yes we do Kreygasm

[@SomersBugtopia]

Twitch speak is how you spot an idiot.

[@Toronjaaccess]

Somers Twitch speak What

[@Gewsfrahba]

why is he an idiot? this is ripped from a twitch stream lol

[@imsorrydave9000]

Sweaty Woman rude for no reason

[@payway9766]

13:35 happens to me all the time, except I can't fill up the board again since I dont own cards like dopplegangster

[@yaerius]

I went with turn 2 astral communion and druid was the easiest for me.

[@enginekid88]

The Shaman deck worked perfectly. I won on the first try!

[@lukaslotr285]

i milled him with warrior there is a cool window when he has frostmore u can just brawl but whitout a minion on your side then put minion (with 4 dmg or more ) every turn he smashed him with weapon and his last 2/6 will go face) and u take only 2 dmg every turn then deathmans hand put brann murlocks bb it was close but .. if u havent legendaries ( u need death mans hand 2x and reno but its cheaper version i hope .. ) gl

[@maggiefix249]

I used my usual shaman deck for play standard games to check out the lich king, with murlocs in there. I won at my first try.

[@sotakoira1390]

Blizzard should have hired Nobbel87 to read those story bits after a win... would have been hilarious

[@Panjax]

Sure would be nice if I didn't need 9 legendaries to have a chance of beating this guy -_-

[@gylfieasmr9058]

Murlocs are your friend. And for warrior I used alarmobot and a deck full of huge (taunt) minions. You can do it! :)

[@Wattasek]

I like to think the Lich King as a baby in a... king’s body.

[@Iam0pti]

Any decks that doesnt use legendaries? (Have LK and kharazan) no wild cards at all

[@sergiopietra8307]

Jade Druid: 1 jade idol, 2x innervate, 2x jade blossom, 2x gadgetzan auctioneer and 23 minions that cost 3 or less.

[@Fungorrr]

Please do a series for budget players trying to do this!

[@KuutenV3]

There are budget series out there but even then its pretty BS. Needing perfect draws/insane RNG and the Lich King having every counter really burns you out. Get something big? Obliterate (x2), Mind Control? Turn 9 Anti Magic Shell. Load up the board to clear before Frostmourne? Blizzard. After awhile.. the pack just isn't worth it. Just to get one rare i'd probably never use.

[@shareefs625]

How he release the 1/1 effect on minions cards?

[@jblack5728]

Kiblers luck has been so real during these Lich King battles.... man.. never lucky here haha (I know he has skill, but has had a lot of luck too)

[@lel90]

he seems to be lucky in every matchup; at least in his yt videos

[@winterchess]

He also played for hours and had bad rng on those runs.

[@baselalnabulsi3437]

yea its almost like he can choose to upload the attempts where he draws properly and doesnt get rng'd out

[@jblack5728]

Hmmp he can't upload only good games can he?? Lol

[@jblack5728]

I know, but still his luck is pretty good

[@lucastanner2474]

I see the two-mana-gain innervate, and I know how long ago this was

[@travman1987]

When did Tosh start playing Hearthstone?

[@Hahahahaaahaahaa]

Interesting because, at least the animation, took your life from the draw fatigue before giving you the armor, so I (assume) that a 5 damage kill, plus the draw fatigue if it would put you at or below 0, would end in a loss even if you had armor leftover? I don't think there's a card that has a chance to do that other than UI. Someone test!

[@god1tet]

Hahahahaaahaahaa yea draw first. you lose if u fatigue urseld

[@zodiacking5]

Armor comes after the fatigue so it wont save you if you die.

[@MatUrb01]

What about cutting Fendral in this deck for something better ?

[@budgetgitarr5351]

Arthas kinda looks like an angry Kibler

[@ozbalrabbit1700]

How to win against the Lich King with only 7 cards or 6. Jade Idole x2 The 4/4 for 6 who draw a card whenever you play a spell x2 Inervation ( the 0 spell that gives 2 mana ) x2 And the guy from the Fireland... I do not know the cards name in Eng but at lest it is a cheaper way to win. After getting those 7 cards, put some random 3 or less minions cards. Just try to have an innervation at the begining. Sorry for my bad grammar.... Good Luck

[@dasistmeinnamedasistmeinna9662]

6 pyroblasts

[@Seyvren]

thats 4 cards

[@therrogue1193]

Blaze Skunk no need fandral,just use gadgetzan auctioneer

[@emberhydra]

Warrior deck list?

[@Neirikos]

where is the music ?

YAY I BEAT LICH KING AS F2P BEFORE KIEBLER POST HIS VIDEO :D

[@yasiinkhan4889]

For everyone that's f2p here is a in depth guide a kind soul posted on reddit: www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/6w4koa/im_the_guy_who_did_the_basicfree_to_play/ Hope this helps!

[@TheMrMoric]

Brian pls create some standard decks for us fool that disenchanted all in wild

[@nickmagrick7702]

you sure do get sindragosa a lot "randomly"

[@multaksama9771]

easiest is shaman i beat him with 2 bloodlusts and 7 totems/ 1/1minions

[@multaksama9771]

oh yeah and devolve for when he summons that wave+ weapon thingie

[@ankhi3585]

I found Druid the easiest, a small jade auctioneer shell and fill with low cost minions .

[@danilomendonca31]

easiest was druid, hardest was hunter

[@btarczy5067]

I won with Warrior by baiting out his removals with N'Zoth and then buffing an Alley Armorsmith with Lantern of Power. On my 50th attempt... HOW LONG WILL THIS GO ON?!

[@Odin46]

Standard deck mb?

[@maxpackard1952]

When I looked at the Lich King battle I thought "yay, another f2p hero portrait"! lol.

[@catch.22]

you can beat the lich king with 6/9 classes by running murloc aggro. Its entirely rng. The matchups you cant win with it in are the main reasons why a F2P account probably has a 0% chance to get arthas. The only way I can think is Spamming yogg and praying, might take a week to roll good enough RNG for that to work.

[@williamshanahan8533]

I'm f2p and started recentley meaning I have the dungeon, but not the right cards or experience with cards to beat it

[@arentrir6159]

Next vid you should play with Arthras. :-)

[@Collisto2435]

Must be nice to have all the legendaries you need to get the hero...

[@RoastedPheasant]

What the flying fuck are you KIDDING ME. The Priest and Druid ones basically have no stipulations, while the Mage, Paladin, Hunter, and Warrior ones are fucking ridiculous.

[@serenityscall6658]

Very well done man... but how many tries did it take you to beat every Single one... dont tell me you did all First try :P

[@saltedcracker8408]

If you're looking for a cheap way to kill lich king with warrior what I did was brawled when the soul things came then played a scaled nightmare with lots and lots of low attack taunts, I kept stalling till scale had 256 attack then killed his soul and hit face, GL

[@Ahturos]

My first win was with Jade Druid and I did´t even have some of the more expensive cards. I guess Druid and Priest are esiest. I need more Murlocs for the Paladdin strategy, don´t know about Rouge, and really can´t bother with Mage yet.

[@jeffreydussault9502]

I actually beat the lich king with a premade deck, lotus golem

[@ElShamoo]

I have beaten the lich with 7/9 classes, the last two being Warrior and Druid. Easy wins with Aggro murloc.

[@justoskill9903]

El Shamo The Druid is easy but the war is so terrible

[@ElShamoo]

Dudouit A The amounts of resets I had to endure to get the perfect starting hand. Jeez, they really fucked us up with this boss lok

[@weirdbox1004]

So mut DUSTA!

[@tehnemox]

What I didn't like about this "challenge" of beating him with all classes is that it is stupid and unfair for non-paladin classes. If you are going to make me beat him with all classes then the reward should be something I can use with any of those classes, not just a niche specific reward for one of them. Does not make sense to me that you have to go through the trouble and yet the rest of the classes get nothing for having to use them (especially if you don't normally use said some of them). Should have been alternate hero reward for beating lich king once, then a Legendary neutral card for defeating him with all classes.

[@thebananamonk]

sees title Woohoo! now i have a guide to defeat the Lich King! sees decks there's no way i can afford those...

[@soraaeu8313]

Me And Hearthstone Why repeat the comment

[@ZafrasF]

+Zora Ri because he must be rly noob, f2p beat them all already.

[@juustas]

kinda funny, how I defeated him with 7 of the 9 decks being full of murlocs

[@Kavou]

Stop it,get some help.

[@axrtix5898]

Nice comment, but Why repeat it :(

[@kevincorkum2147]

Why did your Drakkari Defender not get set to 1/1 ? Druid Lich King battle kills all MINIONS that cost 3 or less, ergo doesn't destroy jade idol.

[@abomidog]

Kevin Corkum it was given to him by the skeletal Knight as a random KFT card.

[@iamvmanonkongregate]

He meant the golem spawned by jade idol, not the card.

I fatigued the lich king as warrior because I thought that was the way you were supposed to kill him.

I think it is a fancy way :D

Anyone come here from the livestream of Urealms Live Lol

I made it, arthas is mine muahahah murlocs OP

[@iwopieniak2063]

Since when haunted creeper is 1/1 ?

[@jac4900]

Iwo Pieniak It's because of the card that the Lich King plays on turn 1 vs shamans. It sets all minions in the shaman's deck and hand to 1/1s. The card is played at 9:32

[@palmerzukermanschure1451]

it's not, just the gimic for shaman is that all of your minions are 1/1

[@iwopieniak2063]

Thansk for the answer guys. I must have missed the moment

[@karolukx44]

shaman vs lich king your every minion is a 1/1.

[@dustinbrandt9912]

Guys look zeromana guide for lichking :)

[@Gakusangi]

...Kinda disappointed all I get is a new portrait considering how much effort goes into beating this guy.

[@Kolinnor]

Hello f2p, guys, if you're interested in budgets decks (and not this fucking murloc decks) here what worked for me : - Warrior, grim patron check on hearthspwn - Rogue (I have litterally NO card in rogue - I mean, 0 card ! Just disenchanted all ! - I played deathrattle and managed it on first try with an insane hand + barnes into yshaarj - but i would have won anyways) - Druid : well I think this is one of the easiest, if you get some good inervates you're good (put barnes in there if you have ! ) - Priest : also very simple imo . try otk, but I think I did it with a sort of midrange - Mage : now for this i have no "good" solution, i really struggled for this.. I managed it with double molten giant into medivh echo... but that was lucky - Shaman : I found it very very easy with evolve shaman, but maybe because I had the cards.. I litterally played my ladder deck... But remember that evolve is so good RNG-speaking that you'll end up getting a good hand - Demo : this is a tough one imo. I think you need either molten giants, reno or the DK. Maybe try deathrattle with no duplicates. And right now, I have to do hunter (knowing that i have NO cards as well) and paladin. Wish me good luck

[@Pit1993x]

hunter? just fill your deck with crap minions so that he gets you down to 2 or 4 turn one. Mulligan for 2 molten giants and kill him. (also put sunfury protector in your deck) :)

[@Kolinnor]

Thanks you dude

[@Pit1993x]

You're welcome ^^

I could not beat him with jade druid so I tried to beat him with big druid and I beat him first try. It was not just a victory it was rape hahaha. Maybe I was just Lucky to get yasharaj out on turn 5
