Product Description

Deep within Blackrock Mountain, amidst the smoldering lava of the Molten Core, sleeps Ragnaros the fire lord. His minions roam his domain, keeping watch as his lieutenants guard the protective runes throughout his lair. Limited-edition raid decks open up a whole new facet to the World of Warcraft® Trading Card Game (TCG). One player takes on the role of an epic foe that only multiple heroes working together can even hope to challenge. Each Molten Core raid deck includes 110 Raid Deck cards plus one 10-card ''Treasure Pack'' and ten Oversized Hero cards. This limited edition raid deck requires players to build their raid parties by using cards from the World of Warcraft® TCG: Heroes of Azeroth™ and Through the Dark Portal™ sets. Deep within Blackrock Mountain, amidst the smoldering lava of the Molten Core, sleeps Ragnaros the fire lord. His minions roam his domain, keeping watch as his lieutenants guard the protective runes throughout his lair.

This raid deck is full of fun, however, I never succeeded in beating the boss with three ppl. Any strategies?

Back to the topic, this is ultra fun, and if u got the epic weapon that would be better!

This is a wonderful item for a WoW CCG Collector to own. Whether you are just collecting the game for the artwork, like myself, or if you have a larger group of friends who all play the WoW CCG that want a change of pace from the normal duel style of play. The product includes everything you need to run the raid, except for the hero decks of course, and includes a treasure pack with powerful items in it that can be added to your own collection or given out as rewards to successful players who defeat the raid.

When I first looked at the WoW collectable trading card game, my first thoughts were that it was pretty much WoW themed Magic: the Gathering and it's brief gimmick set Vanguard, if anyone remembers that. While not 100% right, I stand by my 99% correct statement.

These Raid decks however, of which Molten Core is the first and thus far only I have purchased, bring something new to the table, if you'll pardon the pun. In Molten Core, you take the role of a series of bosses that other players, playing standard decks, team up to try and beat, simulating such actions from the MMORPG. Please believe me when I say the following: this idea turns what is basically a themed M:tG clone into a wholely more interesting beast. Also, this is hard. If you want to beat all the bosses in this box, you need to have a refined deck and a lot of friends. We tried facing it with two players and got about halfway through. Tried it again with four and went 1 and 1 against it. It's a blast to play as the deck as well, however there is a lot to remember as the Raid player and there is a risk of forgetting something between phases if you are not paying attention. If M:tG had came of with this idea first, I would still be playing that game and not this one.
