If a priest plays your deck better than you do, the problem isn’t the priest.

Druid just needs to get ran down quickly, that’s all there is to it
If your deck struggles with it, it might just be your counter, or you’re playing it wrong
Yeah, just can’t play Rheastrasza or they get both highlander payoffs. Silly me. Or madam lazul might copy it, or dirty rat could put it in board to be stolen by puppet theater or synchronize.
Replace rheastrasza with every power card you might want to run.
Beating them basically just relies on you getting luckier with aviana than they are.
At least when I was playing demon hunter, Illidari inquisitors didn’t really care about being copied by priest.
Hell, I’ve even lost games to Ignis weapons generating a Brann for the priest to copy.

I love how you have absolutely nothing to offer you just commenting to cause discord. People like you are as simple and boring as they get. The fact that you can’t understand, priest being able to not only copy opponents cards, but they have cards that can steal opponents cards right off the field. Not to mention they also have stuff like creation protocol and Power chord: synchronize that copy their own cards. Having to play against three Aman’thul’s who can remove your minions from existence or three reborn elusive poison zillaxs followed by Reno etc is literally unwinnable.
play your reno after reaxtraza and priest just wasted a turn
one cost legendary …i cant think on a way to decrease your legendary card costs to 1
If you simply pick every murloc starting at 1 mana, you will probably beat my druid,
priests win not by copying every card, but by copying your best cards
People have been whining the same whines about priest copy cards for ten years straight. They’ve always been “fine” at best.
Play the Demon Seed deck. It make priest cry.
And from the priest’s perspective, copy Rhea from the druid, and just hold it so they can never use Reno. If they do, like to clear your board of 5/5s, or Unkilliax, or Ignis freebie 8 drops… infinite value time!
It’s not all that hard for priest to make druid miserable.
I don’t think you’re playing the matchup right, or the deck you are using is wrong.
Druid just needs to fizzle their Rhea and/or Rhea + bounce. Every Highlander Druid I play against does that. This makes it so they will have a Rhea and the Priest will never get it unless they hit a lucky dirty rat.
Highlander Druid is favored against Highlander Priest for the meta decks.
This is why I have since adjusted my Highlander Priest to be much more favored because of how Highlander Druids are currently playing the matchup.

Correct, that’s the requirement, at minimum for druid to play that matchup.
You basically get stuck holding all of your good cards unless you can bounce them or snapshot them, or both, while the priest can just do whatever they want.
Druid is playing that matchup with their hands tied behind their back. Yes, they win about half the time, but god damn it’s one of the least fun experiences possible.

Well that’s not entirely true. Priest also has to hold on to their cards in that matchup. So for example, you need to hold on to your Fizzle until you have your location and etc and Reno or else the Druid Fizzle will out value you. So you’re kind of playing the same game the Druid is playing. Survive / Pressure until you can value. The problem is that Highlander Druid will apply tons of more pressure than Priest can, so Priest can’t really afford to keep their cards in hand as much as Druid can.
Of course, then the payoff becomes can Priest banker the Fizzle card before Druid draws it.
This is why that matchup is fairly even. It’s more about who lands a good Fizzle. It’s a real back and forth chess match but I feel the Druid has the slight advantage because those turn 4-6 turns are brutal because Druid can get mid range dragons out and Priest can have a rough time dealing with them. All in all, the Druid will likely win the value game overall because there’s no way to wipe 3 nests.
It’s a long battle that’s highly annoying for both sides I’d imagine. I know it’s an annoying battle for the Priest for sure. The dragon pressure constantly coming at you is pretty rough. I’ve lost several times to it and the Druid will never play Rhea.

Oh look the degenerate is back. Here’s that attention you ordered. Do everyone a favor and seek therapy, you clearly need it.
Remember to play Hearthstone properly you must follow this rule: Only for thee never for me.
What this means is that you must give your opponent at least 30 turns and you must allow any shenanigans they attempt. If you do not you are a cheating hacker dirty aggro player that is working for Blizzard to rig their game.
To quote you;
Leave druid alone. You have admitted to playing mostly mage and DK, DK being one of the classes people point out as incredibly annoying to fight due to its capabilities.
If you not steamrolling every class, it doesnt mean they need to be nerfed, but that you got rock-paper-scissored by another class.

I highlander druid and I beat a DK last night. Dunno if it was you, kind of always hoped someone would come on here and rage after recasting pit boss 3 times and they still lose after stealing my own yogg. In reality, the one costs are garbage, it’s a dice roll and that’s what makes it fun. Sometimes you just get literal nothings, or dead cards such as the rogue legendary that changes shape after playing a different class card, Ive had that more than once, then it’s just a 3/3. If the DK decides to eat the Rheastrasza and not Fye, that’s not my problem. Especially if they try rush damage and are shocked the titan can heal back to full.

If they aren’t on top, then something else will be. This game can no longer be balanced because team5 has printed too much trash.
we know
its a card game with a ranked ladder its the first time i see you rant agaisnt the entire game genre
I’m not ranting at all, merely pointing out that complaints are futile, because no matter what happens, something will be on top and players will complain.
Shoo, fly.
