This reminds me so much of Absolute Virtue from FFXI. Was nearly impossible to beat (or quite possibly impossible), it used every major ability from every class in the game and it took hours upon hours to get it low because it would keep recovering from damage with said abilities.
It gained some bad publicity because of its absurd difficulty and combined with people whining about it enough it eventually did get nerfed. After that people stopped talking/caring about it so much whether they were able to beat it or not because it was clearly beatable at that point. The point is... people were mostly interested because of the completely insane challenge it offered and not simply because they couldn't win.
If this was just a case of average players losing and most of the good players roflstomping and being done with the game in a single weekend, interest wouldn't have come this far. Enjoy the ludicrous and unique challenge while you can because it wont take even a day for interest to die if it does get nerfed.
