I won the brawl several times while leveling a priest to level 7, before I even got Holy Nova.

The goal is to get enough Mind Blasts to kill your opponent in one turn.

Swap out Leper Gnome for an annoying cheap minion if you don't have it - it helps some with getting the opponents health down but is not crucial to the scheme.

Novice engineer, Northsire Cleric andPower Word: Shield are there for card draw. Shadow Word: Pain and Holy Nova provide some defenses. 


Your mulligan and draw priority is: 

  1. Card draw (minion over spell because the spells need minions to draw) - unless you have some in hand
  2. Mind Blast if you have some minions and/or card draw in hand
  3. Defensive spells

Try to have a Shadow Word: Pain and/ or Holy Nova read if minions pop up.

You're basically faking your opponent out - by keeping small minions on the board and buffing / healing the minions as a distraction. I've seen several opponents keep messing with small counter minions because they were worried I was building a large OTK minion. Big bodies didn't appear on board until it was too late.

With some luck and a careless opponent you can kill them by turn 7 or 8!
