Mine Cart Rush is a boss encounter found in the League of Explorers adventure. It is the second boss of the adventure's second wing, Uldaman.
Like Temple Escape, Mine Cart Rush is an escape encounter. The opposing hero is Immune and does not have a Health count. Rather than defeating the hero, to win this match you must survive until the "turns to escape" count reaches 0. The boss has a deck, but does not play cards or draw cards at the start of the turn. The boss uses its Hero Power Flee the Mine! at the start of every turn to summon minions. The "turns to escape" count goes down at the end of the boss' turn.
Additionally, the player does not choose a deck or control one of the usual heroes. Instead, the player's hero is the Mine Cart, their Hero Power is Throw Rocks, they are locked at two Mana Crystals, and they use a pre-made deck of 1-mana cards.

Boss
The boss' Hero Power Flee the Mine! summons 2 of the below minions onto the boss' side of the board (3 minions the first time it is used). The selection is random, although the chances are uneven, with the more powerful options more common in Heroic mode. Debris is rarely seen, and may be excluded from Heroic mode.

Removed
Rock was assumed to feature in this encounter, but appears to have been removed during development.

The boss in this encounter has a deck of 30 cards, but does not use them during the encounter. Instead, the boss summons the various minions listed above through its Flee the Mine! Hero Power.
- Player's deck
The player uses a premade deck in place of their own. The special cards are listed visually above.
While the deck has 30 cards in total, the precise quantity of each card is unknown, due to the turn limit of the encounter.
