Rafaam apparently never plays [[Sir Finley Mrrgglton]], making it a dead card useful for including in his deck. If he did, that would take away his unique Hero Power and make him much less of a threat. However, he ''will'' play [[Lord Jaraxxus]] if given the card, thus leaving himself vulnerable to all the usual Jaraxxus counters, and has even been observed to use [[Sacrificial Pact]] on himself afterwards, committing suicide.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwPLwM4pGhI</ref> |

Strategy
The strategy for this boss is fairly simple - build a deck made up of the worst possible cards. Many low mana cards are excellent candidates, as well as various others which are simply very poor, either in general, or specifically in that deck. For example, Anyfin Can Happen is potentially a very strong card - but not if there are no Murlocs in either deck for it to summon.
While the boss will be massively disadvantaged by the deck provided for him, his Hero Power Unstable Portal (Heroic) tends to still provide some very useful options, with a sizeable cost reduction.
A good way to beat this boss is by maximizing the effect of Rare Spear, by building a deck with rare cards that are almost useless by themselves. For example: Dragon Egg, Nerubian Egg, Eerie Statue, Ancient Watcher, Secretkeeper, Murloc Tidecaller and Target Dummy. Alarm-o-Bot and Coliseum Manager can make the whole strategy even easier.
Warrior is a good class due to its access to Cursed Blade. Upgrade! can also boost the number of times the player can hit the boss once they have the Cursed Blade equipped.
