Notes

  • At the start of each turn, 1-3 random Unstable Energies are spawned on the side of player that ended turn. Ashes of OutlandDark Unstable Energy are the most common.
  • All minions switch sides each turn, so the active player will always be in control of any minion played as well as the Portal, and their opponent will always be in control of the Unstable Energies.
  • The player who isn't active is Immune for the turn. This Immunity drops briefly at the end of the turn to allow Ashes of OutlandFiery Unstable Energy to deal damage to both players.
  • Xavius never uses his hero power.
  • The player always draws the cards on first nine turns in next order:

Known bugs

  • Destroying 30 Unstable Energies isn't necessary. Killing Xavius via Ashes of OutlandFiery Unstable Energy also counts as win. This appears to be a mistake, since the dialogue at the end of the fight is unchanged.

Dialogue

Before match

Illidan Stormrage (present)
As a mage, I relied on the Well of Eternity, controlled by Queen Azshara herself. I learned that she was behind the demons' invasion, condemning us all. And for what? Power. Irresistible power... There was only one answer.

Introduction

Xavius
Why have you come to the palace, rebel?
Illidan Stormrage
I wish to join your side.
Xavius
Prove yourself in combat, and I shall consider it.

Emote Response

Xavius
Such cleverness! How unexpected.

Idle

Xavius
I am the High Councilor. It is my job to control entrance to the palace.
If it weren't for this trouble with portals, the whole world would be conquered already.
The master spoke to me first. ME! Not you.

Turn 1

Xavius
I will grant you demon claws. Use them well. (Illidan's hero power changes to LegacyDemon Claws)

Boss' turn 1

Xavius
Our portal is fragile. Strengthen it and earn the master's favor.

Boss' turn 2

Xavius
Why abandon the resistance?
Illidan Stormrage
You control the Well. Without it, I am nothing.
Xavius
True.

Boss' turn 3

Xavius
You would betray your own brother?
Illidan Stormrage
My beloved prefers him. So, yes.

Boss' turn 4

Illidan Stormrage
I hope your master is watching.
Xavius
Fear not. He is very close.

Boss' turn 5

Xavius
I used to be an elf like you. The master gave me many gifts.

Casts spell on turn 7-8

Xavius
For the glory of Queen Azshara!
Obedience before all.
Serve the master.

Destroying the Unstable Energies

Sargeras
7 Unstable Energies are destroyed
Empower the portal...
14 Unstable Energies are destroyed
Yes...

Victory

Xavius
You have passed. Prepare to receive your just reward from the master.
Illidan Stormrage
No, no, just your acceptance is reward enough!
Sargeras
You... are... the... one.
Illidan becomes the Demon Hunter
Illidan Stormrage
My eyes! Yet... such things I can see now!

Lore

Lord Xavius was one of the Highborne's most powerful sorcerers and the high councilor to Voyage to the Sunken CityQueen Azshara during the time of the War of the Ancients. Since Azshara concealed her magical prowess, Xavius was considered the most powerful Highborne to whom the rest measured their skills. He was later transformed into the first satyr by Hero SkinsSargeras, before ultimately being transformed into the dreaded Nightmare Lord.
