Similar to Haigan, Lotheb starts with a Spore and a Fen Creeper along with 99 HP. He can also kill you by turn 3 if he draws right and you don't, but it shouldn't be too hard. Try to start with Elven Archer, since if you use it to kill the Spore he will ram the Creeper into your 8/1 Archer even if he pulls a charger. Alternatively, a turn 2 Shadow Word - Pain should do nicely, but you'll take a lot of pain on his turn 1. Lightwells are extremely useful since a single one can cancel out his hero power which will make the fight so much easier, and that's also the reason why I didn't include Injured Blademaster; you need the healing on you, not your monsters. I didn't see him summon a single monster over 4 ATK throughout any of the games I played so don't bother running Shadow Word - Death, but Shadow Madness and Cabal Shadow Priest are good for the same reason (I don't have Cabal to use). Holy Smite + Wild Pyro will kill those annoying 2/3 1mana chargers and take out any Spores or Leper Gnomes with it, so it makes a good turn 3 play if those are up. Once you kill the Spore and buff up some monsters he'll start throwing that 5 damage+Spore summon spell to kill your buffed guys so try to keep your monsters as healthy as possible (also helps with getting Lightwell to heal you). Don't summon Auchenai Souplriest unless you really need to clear his board with Circle of Healing since it's waaaaaaaaaaaaay more important that you be able to heal than hurt him and your Lightwells will fuck you over. Found that out the hard way...
