	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	4.6	N/A	25	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+
Any Level 1+ Pet	Eldor	Both Anomalus and Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling must be faster than Vinu, means have a speed of at least 277. Due to the downtime of Void Nova, Poison Protocol and Thunderbolt and Vin ability to reduce hit chance by 25%, the script may look a bit weird - but it worked so far. Sometimes, due to hit chance reduction, explode does not trigger and so the level pet does not get XP. I could imagine by using another level 25 third pet this tactic could result in a 100% win chance. But i focused on a leveling tactic.	RNG Level 1+ Script	2	4.5	N/A	2	105 1:45	11+

Still works but can be quite annoying if Unborn Val'kyr misses one of her casts. It typically takes me several attempts before both hit. Not the fault of the author, RNG is RNG...

For those that want to restart this fight easily and want to use a TDScript for this: I got you
(Note that it stops after Ikky dies, this is becuase of the random #3 pet)

quit [!self.ability(Fluch der Verdammnis:218).usable && !enemy.aura(Fluch der Verdammnis:217).exists && !self(#2).active]
quit [self(Ungeborene Val'kyr:1238).dead && !enemy.aura(Heimsuchung:653).exists && !self(#2).active]
standby [round=2]
use(Fluch der Verdammnis:218)
use(Heimsuchung:652)
use(Schwarze Klaue:919) [!enemy.aura(Schwarze Klaue:918).exists]
use(Schar:581)

I haven't done this fight way too many times, but enough to consider this alt strat working reasonably well.

You can use Ikky and Nexus Whelpling:

Priorities until your pet dies:
- Black Claw
- Flock

Bring in your Nexus Whelpling.

Turn 1- Arcane Storm
Turn 2- Mana Storm
Turn 3- Tail Sweep until the fight is done

Nearly all the time Ikky manages to kill Vinu and Nexus can easily sweep the remaining 2 pets.
Even if Vinu didn't die but was on 1 hit kill by Nexus all went fine.

Okay, this one worked a lot better for me than Alt. #2. I think that Val'kyr's DoTs are more effective than Brilliant Spores'. Thanks for the strategies and tips, folks.

I put Terky in the first spot, and used Lucky Dance, then swapped in the Unborn Val'kyr. This removes the possibility of missing. I just skipped the Pass as instructed above, and everything worked great.

This strat needs to be moved up, it takes the RNG out

I agree completely. this strat worked perfectly and should be moved up.

Yes this is the way to go with those two pets. It removed all the RNG and made it so much easier.

Nice Strat. Thanks :-)
If you don't have Terky Mr. Wiggles Uncanny Luck is the same move.

I love how when Vinu does his first move, he follows it up by getting right up in the face of your pet. "I just made you drunk. What are you gonna do about it?"

Thanks, the RNG or rather seemingly lack of (25% miss my arse, more like 60-75% miss) is annoying enough, let alone that Vinu has Boss: Damage Reduction to prevent large burst hits from any pumps. This strat while needing a bunch of restarts works great when everything hits in Round 5

Didn't have Ikky levelled, so swapped for Zandalari Kneebiter, Black Claw, Hunting party, no problem.

Instead of passing on turn two you can swap in any level pet and immediately swap him back out
