	ScarecrowPete	Implementation of a suggestion by Anonymous on the strategy by Aranesh posted above. This should eliminate the RNG of Curse of Doom missing by increasing our hit chance using Lucky Dance. Terky can clean up whatever remains once Ikky is done flocking. TD script isnt perfect, I'm a bit new at this, thank you for your patience.	RNG Script	2	4.8	N/A	22	140 2:20	16+

Any Pet	Bösendorfer	I found this excellent strategy on wowhead, created by victor47613 on 2016/09/19 (Patch 7.0.3), and decided to share it here too. I have tried it a few times, seems to work flawlessly. I suppose the backline pets will vary, so it might be that you have to improvise a bit when Vinu is dead. Normally the Crimson Whelp will kill Vinu, and often it is able to solo the whole fight. From the original post on Wowhead: "Started out with Breath. Then i would heal every time he threw the keg at me and Lift-Off every time he went under the ground. At one point he will throw a keg at you and you wont be able to heal right away, but he will follow this up with a Dive, when he does just use Lift-off and heal on your next turn"	Script	2	5.0	N/A	2	155 2:35	23+

Goes to show you how a bad Script can ruin an otherwise good team comp. Use the script that was posted by Eekwibble. (edited)

After reading the top recommended strat with Terky has a 60-70% failure rate, I used this strat instead on multiple toons. It worked 100% in Shadowlands using Eekwibble's td script listed in the comments. (edited)

As of Pre-patch 9.0 this strat still works perfectly, if using scripts, use @Eekwibble's commented script, it's perfect so you don't waste flock on shells.

I had trouble getting this strat to work with just "any pet" in the third slot. I found it worked best with a 25 P/P Kun-Lai Runt (1,1,1). Rampage until the last two enemies are dead. Hope that helps anyone who might be struggling.

Try PP Zandalari Raptors. Deadly little fellas, quite handy overall for quick work. Black Claw / Hunting party / Leap. They tend to be my cleanup crew or "go-to" solution first, for like anything pet battle related.

The backline pets are critters and flyers. Most of suggestions are excellent on critters but horrible on flyers.
If you want to be ready for both with some survivability enhancement, what about a Feline Familiar? (off the top, no min-maxing here ;p)

Couldn't get it to work either. Even with a second Black Claw/Stampede-type pet. Most of the time, they just didn't live past Vinu. Gonna check out the other ones.

Far preferred this method to first one. Much shorter and consistent. After loosing by the first method several times I decided to try this and BOOM it was over.

Roye wrote on 2016-10-13 23:19:32

Overall concept works, but there is RNG based on the pets (I had a moth as the first backup pet that got multiple wing strikes per attack on Ikky), A backup pet with a comparable move set (I used Zandalari Anklerender 2/1/2) isn't bad insurance.

Akasut wrote on 2016-11-03 19:02:21

Agree, the RNG on 25% miss is abit meh. Any slot1 pet with 2+ dots, into Black Claw+Shattered Defenses makes quick work of Vinu. Rest is cleanup with any pet.

This actually worked for me with an uncommon Umbrafen spore. Icky died but the spore cleaned up. I had a 23 uncommon shadow sporebat as backup with the same moves as the spore and never used it.

This strat works really well. Forgot to put my safari hat on, but level 23 pet got 516 xp in addition to the charms for winning. Pretty easy fight.

Ich hab deutlich bessere Resultate mit einer Änderung der Taktik in den ersten Runden:

Runde 1: Blendpulver
Runde 2: Schleichender Pilz
Runde 3: Sporenpilze (da ist Vinu dann untergetaucht, aber die Attacke trifft trotzdem)
Runde 4: Wechlse zu Ikky

Ich seh keinen Grund warum man Sporenpilze Runde 2 casten sollte, um dafür die nächste Runde zu passen, mit meiner Änderung gewinnt man eine Runde und Ikky bekommt deutlich weniger Schaden :)
