So, late to the party because college took too much time.

This was one of my the BEST bosses I’ve played. First time I tried going with aggro abyssian but it didn’t take long until I realised I wasn’t gonna make it happen due to zane (keep in mind that before my first win I don’t look at the boss battle thread because I don’t like spoilers).

I then realized I could go full mercy on zane with zir’an, and so I did. Life Coil and prism barrier were awesome, but life vitriol was the surprise rookie of the year. I also had excelsious somewhere as a finisher, and zir as a back up, but I did not need them. Here’s my replay: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqbzEY2CFiU_lRG4kI

After that, I came to the thread to read stuff and found out about the cheesy ways. I then decided I was going to beat him with every faction. And so I did, and they were some of the most fun “duels” I’ve ever had:
Songhai: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqcTW6xmaGUMRuGU4e
Vanar: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqcWRfPagZuBnFGJf1
Abyssian: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqcZdT0RE_UvGyaoS3
Magmar: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqcbuoZt_YSXAGdLXW
Vet: https://play.duelyst.com/replay?replayId=-KvqceGIsCf7JatpUouW

One of the best bosses ever. Had a lot of fun building decks to defeat it, specially since I didn’t need to use any cards I do not have in my collection. Keep it up, CPG!
(If you watched all of the replays, thank you :3)
