The Dalaran Heist

The Dalaran Heist is a single-player game mode added with the Rise of Shadows expansion. The mode released on May 16, 2019, 5 weeks after the expansion's launch.

The Dalaran Heist uses a format like the previous single-player campaigns, but with some elements from Adventures as well. The game mode includes five chapters containing eight bosses each. The first chapter is free to play. Additional chapters cost 700 gold or $6.99 USD each, or players can unlock the entire adventure for $19.99 USD.

Reaching the fifth boss of each chapter gives the player 3 Rise of Shadows card packs, and completing all five wings grants a Golden Classic pack, a total of 16 card packs. Players also earn a collectible golden Zayle, Shadow Cloak and two unique card backs for completing all five chapters on both normal or Heroic difficulties.

Rules

• The objective of the Dalaran Heist is to defeat eight bosses of increasing difficulty to win the run.
• The player plays as one of nine heroes, starting with a deck of ten cards, which differs for each hero.
  • Initially, only Rakanishu is selectable. Unlocking a chapter unlocks additional heroes.
    • Chapter 2: Vessina, Ol' Barkeye
    • Chapter 3: Kriziki, Captain Eudora
    • Chapter 4: Mr. Chu, Squeamlish
    • Chapter 5: Tekahn, George the Fallen
• When selecting a hero, the player can choose a Hero Power and starting deck for the hero. New Hero Powers are unlocked by fulfilling certain conditions between games, and additional starting decks are unlocked by defeating a specified number of bosses.
• The player starts with 10 Health, and gains an additional 5 Health per defeated boss, up to 45 Health for the eighth, and final boss.
• The player always goes first. The enemy also does not get The Coin. On round 6, the boss starts with 1 mana crystal, on round 7 the boss starts with 2 mana crystals, and on round 8 the boss starts with 3.
• After each round, the player is offered three bundles of three cards each. (listed below) The player can only select one of these three bundles. This allows the player to increase their deck size in tandem with the boss' decks increasing in size.
• Each chapter starts with a Twist, adding a special condition to every battle. In Anomaly Mode, a random Twist will be used.
• After rounds 1 and 5, the player receives a Passive buff, selected from one of three random passive buffs from the pool of Passives. (listed below)

• These passives give a permanent effect to the player for the rest of the run. These are applied at the start of the match, meaning some buffs that affect cards will not affect cards added to your hand or deck later in the game.

• After rounds 3 and 7, the player receives a Treasure card, selected from one of three random cards from the pool of Treasure cards. (listed below) These are very powerful cards, and often have low mana costs.
• Between rounds 3-4 and 5-6, the player will enter a Friendly Encounter. During this section, the player can spend "gold" to modify their deck in various ways offered, such as adding or removing minions from your deck or giving them a permanent buff.

Twists

Each chapter of the adventure has a unique Twist that affects the game.

• Coin-Filled Coffers: (Chapter 1) The enemy always starts with a 0/3 Cache of Cash in play. When destroyed, two Coins will be added to both players' hands.
• Imprisoned Minions: (Chapter 2) Each player always starts with a Violet Prison in play. The prisons are dormant, and they each contain a random minion. The prison will be replaced with the aforementioned minion after a number of turns equal to the minion's mana cost. The minion cannot attack on the turn it is summoned unless it has Rush or Charge.
• Crowded Streets: (Chapter 3) Each player always starts with three random Carts in play, they can either be a Dessert Cart, a Fish Cart, a Meat Cart, or a Fruit Cart. They are dormant and cannot be removed. Their primary purpose is to take up space on the board so that both players can only have up to four minions in play at any time.
• Swapped Attack and Health: (Chapter 4) The Health and Attack of all minions are swapped.
• Four Additional Encounters: (Chapter 5) There are four additional bosses in the fifth chapter, for a total of twelve bosses. The last four bosses are encounters with members of the Kirin Tor.

Anomaly Mode

Anomaly Mode is unlocked when you have all five chapters of The Dalaran Heist unlocked. It can be activated by clicking the button above the "Start" button before each chapter. Anomaly Mode adds an additional Twist to the selected chapter. The Twist is rolled before chapter selection and can be seen when selecting it.

• Crying: All Battlecries trigger twice.
• Rattling: All Deathrattles trigger twice.
• Hallucinating: Each player always starts with ten copies of Hallucination in their deck that pile on to their current one. These cards are only added into the deck during a boss, so they will not show up during a Friendly Encounter.
• Wild Magic: All spells cast an additional time at random targets.
• Glittering: When either player plays a card that costs (8) or more, a random Treasure card is added to their hand.
• Infused: After a minion is summoned by either player, it gains Taunt, Divine Shield, Rush or Windfury at random.
• Nesting: After a minion is played by either player, it gains "Deathrattle: Summon a 1/1 copy of this minion."
• Refreshing: At the end of each player's turn, that player draws until they have 5 cards in their hand.
• Gorged: Both players start the game with two extra cards and Mana Crystals.
• Fishy: Murlocs occasionally join the battle. Note: A Murloc has a chance to be summoned at the start of any turn.
• Dragon Soul: After a player casts 3 spells in a turn, that player summons a 5/5 Dragon.
• Arcane: All spells cost (2) less.
• Ogreish: All minions have a 50% chance to attack the wrong enemy.
• Summons: After a spell is played, a minion of the same cost is summoned.
• Rejuvenating: At the start of each player's turn, that player restores 2 Health to their hero.

Friendly Encounter

Main article: Bartender Bob

"Welcome to my tavern, friends. Enjoy your stay!"

Between rounds 3 and 4 and rounds 5 and 6, the player will enter a Friendly Encounter with Bartender Bob in one of his many taverns (or on rare occasions, Bartendotron). Inside his tavern, 4 minions from your deck will be placed on your side of the board, and 4 random minions will be placed on Bob's side of the board. The player will receive 3-5 cards from Bob that can modify the player's Adventure Deck, with effects such as adding or removing minions on the board or permanently buffing a specific card. Each of Bob's cards costs 0 or 1 "Gold" (mana), and the player has 2 Gold to spend in the tavern.
