World of Warcraft TCG ‘Onyxia’s Lair’ Raid Deck

Release Date: November 28th, 2006

The innovative Raid Deck experience is all about multiplayer fun and teamwork. One player takes on the role of the mighty Onyxia, while other players try to take the powerful dragon down!

Overview
Whether masquerading among Stormwind’s elite or brooding within her fiery lair deep in the Wyrmbog, Onyxia is a foe not to be trifled with. One of the few remaining elder dragons in Azeroth, the Behemoth of the Black Flight is a master tactician with elaborate machinations to return her kind to power. With cunning surpassed only by prowess, adventurers foolish enough to face her find themselves wishing for a painless death—but Onyxia is not in the business of granting wishes. In this game, one player will take on the role of Onyxia, and the other players will take on the role of a raiding party. The Onyxia player will play the Onyxia raid deck, and the raiding players will play their own decks from the World of Warcraft TCG card pool.

What’s in this Box?
• 60-card Onyxia raid deck (2 copies each of 30 different cards)
• 30-card event deck (30 different cards)
• 10-card treasure pack
• 3 two-sided oversize Onyxia hero cards (one for each stage)
• 20 Whelp tokens

Object of the Game
For the Onyxia player, the object of the game is simple: destroy all who dare to oppose you. A raiding player is destroyed if his or her hero takes fatal damage, or if that player has to draw a card and his or her deck is empty.

When a raiding player’s hero is destroyed, all of his or her cards are removed from the game. This includes abilities that are attached to other players’ cards.

For the raiding players, the object of the game is to work together to destroy Onyxia. The Onyxia player is destroyed if the Stage 3 Onyxia hero card takes fatal damage.

If Onyxia is destroyed, it’s a victory for all raiding players, even those who fell before the Dragon was defeated.
