Strategy
''Together these brave Outcasts stand, they must prove their worth to him firsthand. Against the shivarra they must win, only then can their training begin.''

As the final boss of Chapter 2, Mother Shahraz is no short of a tedious ordeal due to the way her Hero Power works. For the first damage taken each turn, it's prevented and deflected back to the dealer; allowing her to attack your minions with ease while mitigating rushes. While not impossible, it would require massive board control to overcome Mother Shahraz, lest she makes quick work of your minions before crushing you.

Focus on getting good value trades with your minions, as you try to build a wide board. She'll grow weaker as you go into the late-game. Once you do have a wide board, ideally ≥5 minions, you can then attack Mother Shahraz directly. Remember to always attack with the weakest minion first to absorb the reflected damage from Parry and Riposte. Alternatively, the minion with the most health can also do, prioritising those with less Attack.
