Strategy[]

The training begins without delay, as our fellow outcasts join the fray. As Demon Hunters the four shall be, to carry out their destiny.

In their path to becoming Demon Hunters, Aranna faces off against Shalja as the first boss of Chapter 3. Primarily, you should rely more on your weapons (namely Kobolds & CatacombsKingsbane) to prevail, as Shalja's Ashes of OutlandFel Lightning has the chance to cast removal spells such as The Boomsday ProjectBeakered Lightning, LegacyLightning Storm and The Grand TournamentElemental Destruction; making it hard to maintain a good board.

In the early game, you should focus on playing and buffing your Kobolds & CatacombsKingsbane to help control the board, using any remaining mana to play minions when necessary. Try not to go face early on as it might be difficult to redraw it, even with the use of your Hero Power. Reaching the mid-game, start using it to go face, while using your remaining mana to stall with your minions. Use your Hero Power or Kobolds & CatacombsCavern Shinyfinder to redraw Kobolds & CatacombsKingsbane as much as possible. If done correctly, Shalja's health would be whittled down by the time you reach the late-game.

Killing her quickly is important because later when she reaches 10 mana she'll be capable of putting up trios of Stormblockers via Galakrond's AwakeningEye of the Storm. Their taunts prevent direct attacks with weapons against her, and the damage they do in response is suicidal.

Countermeasures include using Knights of the Frozen ThroneDoomerang (which doesn't result in taking their counterattack) or protecting Aranna with Demon Hunter InitiateBlur during the turn she attacks.

Lore[]

Shalja, Outcast is original to Hearthstone. She is a naga.

Wowpedia iconThis section uses content from Wowpedia.
The serpentine Naga are some of the most formidable villains of Azeroth. Masters of sorcery, the naga were formerly night elves, members of Queen Azshara's court in the War of the Ancients. They were transformed into naga by the Old Gods, and now haunt the seas of Azeroth building a great civilization on the ocean floor.
