Notes

• Tornado is improved by Spell Damage.

Strategy

• Your Hero Power, which gives you a 4/4 for 2 mana is great. As with other Boss AI, Lady Darkscale will send her small minion to your Misha even if they cannot kill her.
• Lady Darkscale have a lot of removal in her Deck, so your small minions are expected to die every turn. However, if she uses her removal to answer your Misha, then it is more value for you. If she use her Hero Power (so you and her offsetting the 2 mana for Hero Power), you still lose nothing.
• All her removal are damage based, so buffing a single minion to high stats will make it difficult for her to remove it, and you can use that buffed minion to smack her face every turn and win.
• Try not to put your low health minion besides each other to reduce impact of her Hero Power.

Dialogue

Before match

Rexxar (present)

The new Warchief had many problems. He'd made a pact with a human, Jaina, yet still our camps were raided.

Jaina claimed she had not given that order. Together, we went to find our true enemy.

Introduction

Rexxar

The naga destroyed our camp!

Jaina Proudmoore

We have to clear them out. Then we can discover what really happened here.

Lady Darkscale

The seasss are ours!

Emote Response

Lady Darkscale

Surface dwellers are so strange.

Hero Power

Lady Darkscale

Athero bathre'las!

Face my storm!

For Nazjatar!

Idle

Lady Darkscale

A human and a half-orc work together? What nonsense.

I'll show YOU who's washed up.

Your petty disagreements mean nothing to me.

Turn 1

Jaina Proudmoore

They came out of nowhere! (Mirror Image is cast)

Turn 3

Jaina Proudmoore

I hope you trust me. (Mirror Image is cast)

Rexxar

Thrall does. That should be enough.

Turn 4

Jaina Proudmoore

Our future peace hinges on what we find here. It worries me. (Freezing Potion is cast)

Rexxar

Peace is always fragile.

Turn 7

Jaina Proudmoore

We aren't so different. I think our people want the same things. (Freezing Potion is cast)

Rexxar

That is why we clash.

Turn 9

Lady Darkscale

Ssstand down!

Turn 10

Lady Darkscale

We will reclaim our landsss.

Wounded Footman

Wounded Footman

Mistress Jaina? Is that you?

Jaina Proudmoore

I recognize that footman… I think I know what happened here.

Rexxar

What do you mean?

Jaina Proudmoore

I'll explain later.

Death

Rexxar

The naga are gone. But who were the humans attacking us?

Daelin Proudmoore

Ah, Jaina. I've found you at last!

Jaina Proudmoore

Father. I knew this was your doing. You have to understand - the Horde is no longer our enemy!

Daelin Proudmoore

So naive, my dear. Step aside, an extermination is in order.

Jaina Proudmoore

Rexxar, run!

Defeat

Lady Darkscale

We controlled the world once... and we shall again.

Lore

This section uses content from Wowpedia.

Lady Darkscale was a naga sea witch that attacked the naval base of Kul Tiras located in Coastal Base. She was guarded by Scilla Murkshadow. Rexxar, Chen Stormstout, Rokhan, and Jaina Proudmoore destroyed her and her naga to find human survivors.

Trivia

• The artwork for this boss is reused from Lady Naz'jar.
• The Youthful Brewmaster in Rexxar's deck is likely meant to represent Chen Stormstout, as Youthful Brewmaster's art actually depicts Chen.
