High Abbess Alura

High Abbess Alura is a legendary paladin/priest minion card, from the Scholomance Academy set.

Strategy
Alura can fit in almost every deck, especially buff oriented decks. While she has obvious synergy with buff spells like Power Infusion and Blessing of Authority, she can also be used to cast untargeted spells for free, like A New Challenger..., Avenging Wrath, Zerek's Cloning Gallery, or Soul Mirror. However, you should avoid including cards like Shadow Word: Pain and Hammer of Wrath, which can cause her effect to backfire.

Be careful when putting Lay on Hands in a deck with Alura. Her effect can overdraw cards and you will lose the healing part.

Alura comboes with cheap cards that summon copies of minions like Gift of Luminance or Vivid Nightmare. This will allow you to trigger her effect and summon another copy with her Spellburst still active.

Lore
High Abbess Alura is unique to Hearthstone.
