and as 3rd pet Macabre Marionette: x-x-1 (just the dance/flock)

I started with Val'kyr as above, but used Ghost Maggot (S/S) with 1/1/2. After Haunt, you bring him in and use Stench then hit him with Chomp until it's on 1 round. Used Ghostly Bite when Maggot died. Takes a bit of luck.

Kodex wrote on 2017-10-04 21:41:32

Even better, use Unborn Valk + Infected squirrel. But instead of using corpse explosion, use stampede. So, this:
Shadow Slash > Doom > Haunt > Creeping Fungus > Stampede > win

UBV (221) stitched pup (12X) Ghostly Skull (122)

1. SS
2. Doom
3. Haunt

4. Bite until UDR
4b. Howl

5. Ghostly Bite (should be dead)
6. Pass
7. SS unless it's UDR, then Unholy Ascension. (if SUPER low health you can risk SS anyways... should be dead though)

SS with val'k if necessary

This worked for me, but I should point out that for Ghostly Bite, Ghostly Skull has to be 112.

I don't have a lot of options for undead at lvl 25, so I had to work with what I had. Here's what worked:
Unborn Val'kyr (1, 2, 1)
Restless Shade (1, 1, 2)
Scourged Whelpling (1, 1, 3)

Start with Val'kyr
-Curse of Doom
-Shadow Slash
-Haunt
Swap to Restless Shade
-Phase Shift
-Plagued Blood
-Shadow Slash
-Shadow Slash
-Shadow Slash
Shade dies, Bring back Val'kyr
-Shadow Slash
-Shadow Slash
Val'kyr dies, Bring out Scourged Whelpling
-Shadow Flame, Ruinhoof died here

Good luck!

What a beautiful strategy! It went just like well-oiled clockwork. My L23 Blighted Squirrel (the highest-level one I had) took Ruinhoof down with one round of stampede! With, of course, a lot help from all the sacrifices and assists of his fellow teammates. Lazey, I find myself congratulating and thanking you a lot for strategies these days. :) You must be our Legion Master Battler!

Unborn Val'kyr 2,2,1 and Bone Serpent 1,2,1 did the job.
Course of Doom - Haunt, Call Darkness - Nocturnal Strike - Bone Barrage 'til your serpent is dead. Brinkg back the Val'kyr and finish the fight with Shadow Shock

Argent wrote on 2017-10-14 14:33:51

The only way this would work is if you get super lucky with a Darkness miss. Otherwise Ruinhoof kills the Bone Serpent with 2k damage on its first turn.

My squirrels weren't leveled, so I found this strat online;

Unborn Val'kyr 221
Son of Sethe 221
Stitched Pup 122

Start with Unborn Val'kyr
-Curse of Doom, Shadow Shock, Haunt
Bring in Son of Sethe
-Touch of the Animus, Drain Blood, Plagued Blood until dead
Bring in Stitched Pup
-Howl, Diseased Bite

I used a unborn val'kyr 1,2,1, and a lvl 21 infected squirrel 2,2,2; never needed the 3rd pet. I didn't corpse explode I did the creeping fungus then a stampede for turn 2. squirrel died but so did ruinhoof.
