Strategy
Mecha'thun offers one of the few guaranteed win conditions in the game, but its requirements are very demanding. Not only is drawing out your entire deck a time-consuming process, emptying out your hand and clearing out all other friendly minions is just as tricky. Otherwise, as a vanilla 10/10 it's largely useless.
If you play Mecha'thun with no assistance, there is no guarantee it will survive to the next turn to combo it to meet the requirements. Even if you filled everything else, there's always a chance it could get silenced or transformed, negating all your hard work. One-turn combos are still possible however by utilizing Galvanizers to reduce its cost to be more manageable.
Potentials combos to instantly kill Mecha'thun include:
- Play an 8-mana Mecha'thun, followed by Bloodbloom and Cataclysm. This combo is the most simple to execute and ignores your board state and hand.
- With no other cards except Mecha'thun, play Reckless Experimenter, Coffin Crasher, and 2 Ticking Abominations. Cards must be played in that order. This combo has the advantage of the combo pieces not being affected by Hemet.
Hemet, Jungle Hunter can delete your low-cost cards out of your deck to empty your deck as soon as possible. Keening Banshee also helps with deck thinning.
