Ugh, you again?

You did not invite me?! I am a prince of the Eredar!

After last time? We're still fixing the hole in the roof!

Sir, the Medivas are set up. Barnes is rehearsing with them now.

Have you looked outside, sir? There are raid bosses scrambling for an invitation.

Balloons! Moroes, we forgot the balloons!

Moroes

Sir, balloons terrify murlocs. Remember last week?

Turn 6

Prince Malchezaar

You invited Jaraxxus? The weakling?

Have you heard his karaoke? He's amazing!

Moroes

*Ahem* And he didn't torch the library...

Simple fool!

Back to your home, demon!

I'm taking you with me!

Well, this isn't good. This isn't good at all.

Greetings

What are you doing here?

A good try, demon.

Thanks

You are too kind.

Wow

Oh ho ho! That was awesome!

Oops

That was your plan?

Threaten

You never had a chance!

Sorry (unused)

Aw, that didn't work out...

Lore

Prince Malchezaar is a corrupted eredar and prince of the Burning Legion. He is encountered by Medivh during the adventure's first wing, The Prologue.

In World of Warcraft

"You face not Malchezaar alone, but the legions I command!"

This section uses content from Wowpedia.

Prince Malchezaar is a raid boss located at the very top of Karazhan. He can be encountered after the Chess event and controls all of the trash between the Game Room and Netherspace.

Little is known about Malchezaar, except that he is a man'ari eredar, he claims to be a prince, and he is a member of the Burning Legion. It is unknown how or when he arrived at Karazhan or what his purpose there is. He apparently arrived while some agents of the Violet Eye were still alive inside Karazhan, notably Keanna. It was likely shortly before Karazhan was sealed, as the Violet Eye were aware of Keanna's death.

Trivia

• During the fight, Medivh mentions that he invited Lord Jaraxxus to Karazhan due to Jaraxxus's karaoke being "amazing". This may be a reference to MrVoletron's popular remix "You FACE Jaraxxus", which consists of many of Jaraxxus's soundbites from World of Warcraft.
• Incidentally, Malchezaar's Hero Power works stat-identically to Jaraxxus's INFERNO!, summoning a 6/6 Demon for 2 mana.
• Aside from the fairly non-descript Mine Cart from The League of Explorers' Temple Escape, this is the first adventure mission to feature a playable hero that is not available in any other game mode or adventure encounter in Hearthstone.
• When asked whether the Archmage's Apprentice card featured in this encounter represented a young Khadgar, Ben Brode replied "perhaps".
• If Astral Portal summons Wilfred Fizzlebang, his ability will work with Medivh's Hero Power. This was likely explicitly designed, as his ability doesn't work with any Tavern Brawl-exclusive Hero Powers that draw cards.
• Brilliance can be upgraded by Justicar Trueheart, but the resulting Hero Power is identical. This may be an intentional workaround since the Hero Power is technically Medivh's "starting Hero Power".
