Resurrect priest is still brutally overpowered

Wow. No matter how much damage you deliver, no matter how many of their guys you morph, no matter how many boards you create… they have a cheesey, braindead way out. This is one ht eonly pure cancer decks left in the game. We just need to get rid of this horribly broken deck and the game will be almost back to somewhat of its former glory(not quite but better).

This deck has unlimteed healing and removal. It just never ends. Its perfect for intellectually challenged players that havent quite developed as primates yet so I guess thats good. Either way, get rid of this garbage.

Today I learned that one copy of Divine Hymn is infinite healing.

Priests heal with their HP, so it’s technically correct to say that they have infinite healing, even without Divine Hymn.

That deck was somehow nerfed? I kinda do not understand that “Still”

Res Priest is truly great.

The 2 mana 10 damage AOE is something to behold.

The 4 mana 3/3 heal for 10 at the end of your turn is fantastic.

And the 10/15 3 mana taunt. That one sucks because it can’t attack.

Or at least those are the cards the deck would need to beat MR Hunter, the most popular deck in the game.

It will be gone… in April

Also the whole BS from you again ./sigh

I played against this the other day. Dude somehow resurrected two copies of a single Prophet Valen that I’d killed earlier while also having a third in play, so he rez’d, gets a triple effect on healing and damage of hero powers which somehow translates to a spell card that’s supposed to do 5 damage to enemy hero doing 40 instead and he kills me in one turn. Pretty sure this is not how Prophet Valen was intended to work, nor the soul stone Rez.

What classes do you play? Besides “Martyr,” I mean.

That’s a very good point. Their base hero power has been a huge part of what carries them to greatness for quite some time, now. :stuck_out_tongue:

well…everytime priest has nice deck, the hero power was there…

Makes me wonder if any site every tracked how many hero powers per match a certain deck saw.

And expect little Mikey to start immediately complaining about whatever new deck surfaces in April that he isn’t bright enough to figure out how to beat.

It’s literally all he’s ever done on this forum.

A lot of players (including me) are secretly hoping and feeling like the next balance update might finally do something to fix this madness.

That is if Blizzard doesn’t want to start the entire state of Wild for another year or two?!

Are you some kind of Nostradamus?

Maybe not. You didn’t specify he would complain about every single new deck :wink:

Hey man, don’t group the poor shamans in with the Res Priests.

You seem to be greatly confused. Using the same deck as someone else and a deck being overpowered are two largely seperate circumstances that you shouldn’t lot together as well.

Using a net deck doesn’t make someone inherently brain dead or mentally inferior, there are so many reasons people netdeck that narrowing it down to one reason is just plain incorrect in the first palace, but summing it up as a direct cause of an innate lack of intelligence is brain dead on your part within itself.

I couldn’t agree more that big priest is way to strong at the moment and is in dire need of balancing, but please do not convolute the topic with mindless jabber about people’s intelligence and completely off topic and plain false ranting about net decking.

I agree wholeheartedly with the OP.

It’s like Blizzard took the whole “there’s no interaction” and went, “well hey, how can we make this lame WITH interaction?!” Their answer? Ressurection Priest.

So fun to play, so fun to play around.
Oh wait, it’s not, and it’s not.

It’s amusing to read the latest responses to this thread. The OP is so vague and ranty that even though the target of the complaint (Wall Priest*) is nowhere near as powerful as it used to be, people still assume the OP is talking about whatever Priest deck they dislike.

It’s like a Rorschach test for Priest hate.


*or was it Gallery Priest? Hard to recall which hobbyhorse Mikey was whipping at the time.

It’s good to know that people will complain about Priest no matter how bad it is, right? Wall Priest is currently sitting at about 42% global winrate according to VS. Deep in Tier 4. Worse than Nomi Priest by a couple percent. And still they’re so bitter about Priest just for existing.

We’re right up there with Karazhan for the worst Priest or any other class has ever been, but sure. Nerf it into the ground. Deeper into the ground, I mean. It has zero competitively successful decks, but they’re still being tracked dammit so they’re still too strong.

healing 2 a turn is infinite, you heard it here first boys.
