Strategy
Belloc Brightblade forces the player to play without spells or significantly restrict their use. While it does not seem difficult in normal difficulty, on heroic mode Belloc's quick takeover of the board often forces to cast anything, which also puts to Belloc's hand.

In Normal difficulty Belloc is not a very strong midrange paladin, with the support of several Warlock cards. His Lynessa Sunsorrow usually gets 1-2 Seal of Champions (all AI heroes do not cast Pharaoh's Blessing for some reason). In general, it is not difficult to clear his board and Belloc is countered by standard proper actions of player and usual passives like First Aid Kit, Glyph of Warding, Rocket Backpacks which are very useful for heroic mode too.

In Heroic mode Belloc almost does not have the minions that can be eliminated without further consequences due to large amount of Divine Shields and good mana curve. In so situation it becomes very difficult to play without magic, and if it is impossible to kill at least one minion every turn with weapon or the hero power, the player will have to give Belloc your spells. If is is Map of Uldum, Zephrys's Lamp or Sack of Lamps, give these treasures at the very beginning of the game - Belloc will get only one card and mana crystal in first case or will immediately spend all the Lamps, getting a very small value with 2-mana minions/spells compared to the later stage of the game. If the player's deck has a lot of huge minions, reducing the power of Belloc's hero power is possible with Crook and Flail. Aggro decks can get the opportunity to seize the initiative using Disks of Swiftness. In addition, the entire battle becomes much easier with Anomaly - Whirling Winds.
