I suggest not needing to do Rip/Blood and just doing straight Surge until Muckbreath Dies. Either way works well.

I second this - my Nexus Whelpling kept dying one turn too early when I was doing Rip & Blood in the Water, and the extra damage from Muckbreath's 1-2 Surges pushed the final enemy low enough that I could finish the fight early.

Yep, I removed the line that issues Rip from the script and it finally worked for me; gave me that one extra turn my Whelpling needed.

Modified strategy and script with this change. Overall seems more consistent but still some risk of bad luck crits from enemy.

I got new pets since I created this strategy and not using it anymore. I use this one instead, that is more predictable (while it requires difficult to obtain pets): https://www.wow-petguide.com/Strategy/21096/Exploradora_Mardei (edited)

Senega? Which is this pet? I can't found nothing information about this pet

Senega is listed as an alternative for Nexus Whelpling. Xu-Fu's gets its pet info from the Blizzard API, which means that Blizzard has the pet in the game.

However, on Wowhead, while it is listed, I see no way given to get it, which means either that it is a Secret that nobody has recognised yet, or it has yet to be released to players. It could be an upcoming Trading Post pet, for example. Or maybe its source will not be available until 10.2
