Need to Auto win in Heroic.
Get “Sound the Bells!”
(Paladin 2 mana echo card. Comes in ‘old deck’ Paladin deck.)
The trick is to reduced its Mana cost. With a talents that reduce the its mana cost. (Bartender has several different card cost reducers).
Once it mana cost is ZERO. You can enchanta friendly minion to any amount you want in one turn. Going Infinite even. BAM. BOSS BEATEN.
Just end a mission beating a BOSS on turn 3.
PS
I guess technically, the BOSS that reduces your time to 25 sec can defend against this. But all the other BOSSES are open season.

This has been well known pretty much since Wing 5 came out
I’m sticking to my guns and going with Robes of Gaudiness + Duplatransmogrification FTW. The only problem with the Bells deck is that you need to draw the Bells, with an attacker in play, no Taunt across, and a hand/power that let you play it.
Which is not really that unlikely, but I’m sooooo tired of losing to a bad hand on game 7-12. Though that’s just personal. This combo is pretty OP.
Just finished heroic wing 5 with precisely this. It’s possible that I could have beaten it without, but I’ll never know, as soon as you draw a 0-cost sound the bells with an open lane it’s over.
I even held off in the last matchup because after casting it over 100 times against previous bosses it got incredibly tedious, but once he was down to ~40 health, well, time to finish it.
So…still not at all impressed with this “new,” (quotes because, well, sorta new; the lore of being a villain is new but the rest is pretty same-y) PAID adventure content. This is far from the only OP strategy (I’m looking at you, Elistra the Immortal) available in the format, it’s still largely luck-based (and I mean beyond the luck of the draw), heroic doesn’t seem to be all that much more difficult than normal mode, and yet in either you’ll often run up against a boss that just cases you randomly because you didn’t get what you needed - which is quite frustrating and makes it feel like a giant waste of time.
Forgive me if I’m missing the positives here but after beating the thing in normal and heroic mode I’m just not that impressed, and this likely marks the true end of my HS journey. I’m not feeling the value with this paid adventure mode, rather I feel cheated out of 16 packs I could have otherwise just bought (got 5+1 rare from the golden pack so meh), perhaps I’ll use the random deck dude but I’m not excited enough about it to warrant the cost, I’d rather just craft it on an alt account like I did whizbang (golden whizbang I was stoked about partly for that reason, it was fun and I gave praise for it at the time).
So…yeah if you’re reading this, and particularly if you’re a new player, skip this adventure. I mean, probably skip HS and go with a known winner but certainly if you’re set on HS, just buy packs or play arena with your gold, and play old FREE adventure modes if you’ve got the itch for PvE.
