Strategy
Fueled by hate for the Rusted Legion, Illidan seeks annihilation. For all under the tyrant's command and even the wailing souls of Outland. Only she can stop his rampage, save them all from his unyielding rage. Aranna has come a very long way, from being lost and led astray. Banding outcasts together as one, saving a world from being outrun. It pains her so to come to this, but she must cut away his hubris.

Impossible to rush: Health is too high. Focus instead to survive. Control the board, withstand his attacks. Try and keep your health intact. Build your board, make good trades. But do beware of his Burning Rage. It's very important that you heal, lest Illidan gains lethal. Keep your health above 8, and the rest? It's your fate. Enough of rhymes- they're getting plain... Survive 10 turns and win this game!
