From a free win when going against them to a turn 3 concede. I might sound like i complain a lot bros but its always shaman, priest and paladin.
Much to my chagrin i was blessed enough to witness the downfall of paladin and -what i thought as well- priest. I was minding my own business waiting for shaman to be nerfed but up from the woodworks crawls the priest. Why are they like this?
Imagine a deck comprised of 26 cards under 3 mana. Just imagine that for a second. What are we playing here? What sort of atypical disorder is needed to even want to participate in playing priest?
It’s always the most pebblebrained tech that they use. Woah your heals hurt me instead! Woah! That should warrant the one mana 8 damage to my face right because you technically are losing out on the heal right! woah, right!
One must only assume that the deranged paladin will soon find their light again. I am projecting a shaman nerf that will bring to light the most ungodly paladin* and priest that you could imagine.
You make no sense. You had said you like Rogue decks, and now you complain a priest deck has low cost cards?
What Priest deck requires a concede on round 3? You sound tilted.

Mighta been that.

Except for when it’s warrior, death knight, hunter, mage, rogue, or druid. Especially especially especially druid.

I can give you a list! I’ve been working on those for decades!

Literally 80% of all decks I play fit into that description

And yeah, I got a brutal winrate on that particular deck today in top 1k, so this is just the beginning
The deck is very interesting to play because it relies on heavy board control and draw probabilities every single turn. However, at the same time, because of those two factors, it’s also exhausting to play. I can’t just unwind and win 10 in a row on autopilot like I could while playing Weapon Rogue and Sludgelock.
Umm… nevermind xDD Whatever the deck you’re talking about is, I’ve never seen it nor played it
I’m running this:
Summary
Hallucinating
Class: Priest
Format: Standard
Year of the Pegasus
2x (1) Acupuncture
2x (1) Brain Masseuse
2x (1) Catch of the Day
1x (1) Deafen
2x (1) Hallucination
2x (1) Miracle Salesman
2x (1) Overzealous Healer

To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone
It’s lowkey kinda broken (and it has exactly 26 cards with mana cost 1-3 like you said xD)
I’m afraid you’re right. I accidentally noticed it when I opened 2 interesting cards of his and am already putting my pants in the washing machine, if you know what I mean
Priests are always insufferable.
Historically, priest is definitely the worst overall class though. Druid has the crown since the dawn of the game.
Yeah Priest is just made to troll everyone. Its a pretty pathetic class. Never a fun matchup for the most part. I give them a free win and move on. Dont care to play them.
Priest is insufferable to play against and to play as! Seriously, seems like whenever I dust off my Priest I end up with the most craptastic of draws lol. Serves me right for playing it, I suppose.

It is quite strong if you know what you’re doing
At least 3 priest decks can be found in top 2k
If you’re a Priest fan, I see no reason you give it up after a few unlucky draws
With a skill difference in your favor, you will easily hit top legend
Altair, have you been playing mage on the Euro server at 2k legend? Was wondering if I bumped into you on standard. Curious.

What happened with Priest suddenly? I just faced like 4 priests back to back, all with godly draws and dropping mothership by turn 6.
Is there a new list going around or just people trying to target shamans and warriors?

Its soooo low cost like i said they have all 2 mana deck. Its even faster than zerg dk
It hyper countera everything currently popular and it also has the (actually high chance) of hitting a perfect turn 4
It’s value-oriented meta, ofc Priest is gonna thrive
I know of 3 priest decks running around, and i believe you just mentioned the 4th, so…
EDIT: Make that 5 xD I just saw a mech protoss priest, insane
Naah, man, whoever made this one is a genius xD I didn’t know what hit me
He just kept spitting out those mechs, taunts, divine shields, buffs, and on and on and on and I was like, where is all that coming from?? How??
I have been using him since the mini set, since I was bored of zarimi and my kure deck is a fiesta. People have been sleeping on him. It’s up there with the top decks for sure. Might had the easiest climbs in legend this month. Think I lost only 2 in d5+.
