Hello everyone,

My name is Outrage_92 and this is my control Priest deck. It is somewhat simillar to Kolento's 12 season Control priest but with a few changes of my own. It is a very fun deck to play with, with many different outcomes and very effective at the same time. It could be a very underwhelming in the first few games you try it out, but trust me, the more you play, the better it gets. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of the card choices and the reasoning behind their choice + some good combinations

Circle of Healing - Very important card in almost every Priest deck as it clears the board when combined with Auchenai Soulpriest or can be combined with Injured Blademaster

Power Word: Shield - Good combo with Wild Pyromancer and Northshire Cleric. Can also give huge advantage when facing aggro decks. 

Northshire Cleric - Now, the reason I put only one Cleric is that very often you don't get value from both Clerics and sometimes the second Cleric comes very late in the game when you might not need card draw. Besides that Zombie Chow is a very good 1 drop and can be combined with Auchenai Soulpriest for damage input. If you don't find this idea good enough, you're always welcome to go back to the traditional 2xCleric.

Shrinkmeister - This card is awesome when combined together with Cabal Shadow Priest against hard-to-deal-with 4-attack drops such as Ysera, Druid of the Claw, Yetis , etc., EPIC! Big game changer, can me combined with Shadow Madness as well. P.S. It is a good 2 drop against aggro decks and I suggest to be used when faced one. 

Velen's Chosen - Now, this is a card that can be a huge turn point when facing aggro decks and the main reason why I put it here. Works nicely together with Sludge Belcher, Wild Pyromancer and Holy Nova

Shadow Word: Death & Thoughtsteal - Those are the cards you might need the most when facing control based decks. #Handlocks, #ControlWarriors

Shadow Madness & Recombobulator - Currently, almost every deck runs Sludge Belcher. So, doing this combo you can destroy an enemy minion and get a fresh 5 drop minion. Beastly!

Holy Nova - You always need one nova. Awesome combination with Wild Pyromancer

Harrison Jones - The reason I am running him is because of the current meta(many decks consist of at least one weapon). For those of you who don't have him or don't like him as he isn't beneficial against all classes, a good replacement can be Loatheb or Acidic Swamp Ooze.

[card]Sylvanas Windrunner[/card] Grinds the gears of every opponent unless silenced. At late stage of the game, it is a 9 mana Mind Control together with Shadow Word: Death

Dr. Boom - In my opinion he is better than Ysera in the current meta and just too OP in general. The only downside is that he is the only target for BGH in this deck...possibly.
