Solo Strategy

Arg'il fights alongside Frostmaw โ€” you must manage both bosses simultaneously. Arg'il's Stone Wall blocks direct attacks and must be destroyed (40 HP) before you can hit him again. Quake hits all players for AoE damage regardless of position. Focus Arg'il first since his terrain control makes fighting Frostmaw much harder. When both bosses are below 30% HP, Frostmaw enters a Frozen Rage mode โ€” kill Arg'il quickly to avoid the double-enrage. Ice cards deal 2x damage and can freeze his stone constructs.
