Notes

The Onyxia Lair Raid Deck is the first Deck ever in many TCGs that actually allows for a 1 Vs 3-5 Multiplay. The deck is specifically designed to be able to handle these kinds of numbers. To stay in touch with the Warcraft Lore, only decks from the same faction are allowed to team up against Onyxia.

Equipment from the Treasure Pack Card are actually loots from Onyxia ingame. This means that also the Tier 2 Headpieces were introduced in this set.

The Ability Cards in the Treasure packs are designed for Multiplay. Their effects usually involve friendly players.
