Not first time legend, but first time legend with Priest.
After a period of trial and error I came to this version of Resurrect Priest. It seemed superior to any other Priest deck I had ever played, so I played it straight from rank 7 to legend with a 69% win rate.
Mulligan Guide
Always keep Injured Blademaster, Auchenai Soulpriest and Priest of the Feast.
If you have any of the above, also keep Resurrect.
If you have Auchenai, also keep Circle of Healing.
If you have Circle, also keep Embrace the Shadow.
Keep Excavated Evil against Shaman, Mage and Warlock.
Shadow Word: Pain:
Always keep it against Shaman, Mage, Warlock, Hunter and Warrior.
Against Druid and Priest keep it only if you already have a good hand.
Never keep it against Rogue and Paladin.

You can't heal Soggoth. There's not enough synergy with Barnes considering the risk of resurrecting Barnes or summoning Onyx with Barnes.
Man i gotta say I was excited about this deck and i made it , but i get really frustred about the results ...
i think you should do a gameplay or something like that, i'm having problems with it . I think i'm just tilted or boosted because i cant get a win streak, actually i fall 3 ranks with this man , but it really is a fun deck even loosing !
Could you do a gameplay? thansk dude!
I'm sorry to hear that. What exactly do you have problems with? You want me to post some video?
Would be great man! do you have some youtube channel? i'd subscribe with pleasure !
- Embrace the Shadow + Doomsayer
You wanna resurrect Doomsayer?
Come on man, this is priest we are talking about. Your sense of humor is as good as priest.
How do you think, we need to keep coin on 2nd turn or use to go quick Blademaster, and if yes- to use - in what cases
Coin Blademaster on turn 2 is almost never wrong. Against Control Warriors try to play around Fiery War Axe.
It can depend on what you have in hand and what is on the board. If they're going to kill it immediately and don't have resurrect for turn 3, then I usually wait a turn. Occasionally I draw the rez and could have rezzed it, but it's only a 2 in 24 chance so that's not likely.
After the reset, i touch rank 14 easy - 13/0 so far
I swap one bog for velen, this card is god
i don't have [card]Sylvanas Windrunner[/card] , is it better that i put Prince Malchezaar since it gives the deck 5 extra random legendary minions and might get lucky to get [card]Sylvanas Windrunner[/card] or better?
This deck is quite combo-dependent and has little draw. If you put extra legendaries in the deck the risk of not drawing the combo-pieces when you need them is too high.
what is the better replacement for the meantime cause i see your point, tried playing it... it reduced the chance to draw the cards i need ...and sometimes i get legendary minions that i don't need
I don't know, Sylvanas is hard to replace. You could try a 2nd Darkshire Alchemist or Justicar Trueheart.
ismiel : Appreciate your time taken to describe the gameplay of this deck. Had a couple of questions.
1. do you still run harrison over darkshire? Everytime I take harrison back out... i immediately face a gorehowl or doomhammer and regret it.
2. could you talk a little bit about how you use sylvanas. that card is the one in the deck that i feel doesn't give a whole lot of bang for the buck. sure on turn 9, if you have it and shadow death in hand.. you can get some great steals...but this is very situational. I feel like this is the one minion that could be converted to something even more greedy but perhaps I'm just playing it wrong. It just seems this 5-5 minion is very often killed by my opponent with nothing on board to steal and doesn't bring any impact.
overall the deck is solid and can beat any matchup out there. the problem is, it is heavily combo dependent and you must draw like a god to win consistently... I like knowing that I can beat any opponent out there...but sux the nut when you rarely draw.
Also - for mirror matchups... do you find it all comes down to who gets the early IBM resurrects off? maybe i'm playing this matchup wrong but every time i face the mirror it inevitably happens that i only have auchenai and priest in hand... and they have IBM's... and i just get destroyed by resurrect / onyx chains during turns 3-7 because my draw is terrible. thoughts?
1. Atm I'm playing with Forbidden Shaping and Holy Nova instead of Darkshire / Harrison and Embrace the Shadow. This version is working very well for me, but I won't change the decklist on Hearthpwn before I've gathered more experience. I'm using Forbidden Shaping because I figured that with the little card draw this deck needs one more good top-deck that is not a dead card no matter what. Against slower decks I try to play Forbidden Shaping on turn 8, because many valuable minions like Tirion, Ragnaros, etc. cost 8 mana.
2. Apart from SW:Death you can also use Embrace - "Heal" Sylvanas - Circle to remove everything except what you want to steal. I once made that move to steal a Ragnaros when I had my own Ragnaros on the board, and because Embrace - Circle removed everything except the two Ragnaroses my opponent took 16 damage to the face and died. ^^ When Sylvanas is already on the board you can also make nice moves with Excavated Evil. Against slower decks I try to use Sylvanas to steal something valuable, but against faster decks it's reasonable to play her just to make sure you can remove their minions, f.e. when a Tempo Mage plays an Azure Drake and you have no answer, just play Sylvanas. Yes, you probably won't get the Drake, but you'll survive and that's what matters.
3. Yes, I hate mirror matchups exactly for that reason. IBM resurrect, gg.
I am really liking the deck so far, but I got a question though.. What's the gameplan against paladins, more specific "Anyfin paladin"? This seems like the hardest match-up in my eyes...
Entomb both of their Murloc Warleader and they are done.
unfortunately, works only in 1/4 of all time...
good idea , but only 6th drop...
Priest need one more cool card as Shadow word:Pain for decks, like small entomb to take minion < 3 or 4 atack into priest hand
