Buffed up lightwells destroy both noth and loatheb.
Heigan was rough, had to restart a few times, but on the winning game he turn 3 and 4 used that draw/gain crystal card, then he dumped his hand on turn 5, which an auchenai / double circle cleaned up nicely. Trivial win from there with him only topdecking.

Took me quite a few tries to beat Noth, at first I was trying to mill him but the 4/6 untargettable were too annoying to deal with so switched to a priest deck, no lightwells though didn't think of it, only big defense mobs with innerfire/divine spirit, think I had a 24damage maexna at the end. Heigan took a few tries, I started trying with a priest deck also but it didn't work that well, switch to secret mage and worked fine, dropped the +2/+2 per turn guy on left side then played duplicate while freezing/flamestriking and dropping more stuff. One shot loatheb with normal zoo deck, got the right cards at start, argent squire+elven archer and drew voidwalker on turn 2, so basically turn 1 argent, turn 2 drop void, use elven archer to pop the spore, gg.
Interesting interview of Ben Brode and Jason Chayes from PC Gamer; mostly Naxxramas and balance.

Tidbits:
* Heroic encounters are supposed to be puzzles you create a deck around. In other words, "cheesing" is intended
* They're planning on waiting for all of Naxx to release before considering nerfs to cards like Leeroy and Auctioneer
* No neutral weapons since it blurs class lines
* No cards that will destroy opponents mana or cards (discounting milling with Northshire Cleric in Priest vs Priest)
* Tournament / Spectator mode current priority, hopefully before Blizzcon

I wonder when they are going to come with a mechanic where if the creature is alone on your side of the board, it gets bonuses, to counter the zoo strats

The hero ability is a great idea. I bet they already have that in the works, I don't see any other possible balanced, unique DK ability. The Requiem he's designed is too op with the hero power synergy tho.
Defile is the most egregious by far. But the synergies between many of them and between the hero power makes the whole list ridiculous.

It's fun and all to create concept cards that "fit" well within a character's theme. It's a lot harder to balance those cards against the other 400 cards that already exist.
Anti-Magic Shell is one example of a card that is simply too good. There's a reason that only a few cards can't be targeted with hero powers and spells. A card that gives that ability to any neutral minion is just asking for a nerf down the road.

The ability to trigger requiem for 2 mana is a bit crazy with 1 damage on top, that would definitely need some tweaking, maybe make them 0/2 with taunt and they die at the start of your turn. Then you have the card that kills your own minion, combo that with nerubian egg and you have 4/4 + 4/5 turn 3 ...

Those along with their focus on "minion playing and trading" is why I barely play this anymore.

Didn't they nerf Alex for one of the fights? Or they are going to...
