Hey guys KiwiiNbacon here! After a few months of not posting anything i decided to post a New dragon priest deck since it is back in strength
The deck itself is quite strong, I have been playing it with great success. If you love dragons and you love Reno cards, you'll definitely enjoy this deck!
I will be working on a complete guide as soon as I can but in the meantime please leave a few likes :D Here is the deck in action! Check it out it's worth it! 12 decks of Xmas Finale
Your Goal:
What you want to do with this deck is survive the early game without losing the board too much, play mid game minions on curve and try to out value your opponent in the late game with huge minions and very strong board wipes. To facilitate your task, Raza the Chained, Reno Jackson and Kazakus will follow you on your path to victory!
Mulligans:
If you start first: You will want Twilight Whelp, Faerie Dragon, Netherspite Historian, Power Word: Shield or Doomsayer
If you start with the coin: You can mulligan for the same things, but you can also try to get Kabal Talonpriest or Twilight Guardian.
Card choices:
Kabal Talonpriest: extremely good card on top of a 1 or 2 drop. it enables trade plus is a 3/4 itself. Required in any decent priest deck.
Raza the Chained: He is your main boy over here! Plays very well into Confessor Paletress and Justicar Trueheart for 4 HP heal each turn for Free :D free is good!
Confessor Paletress: Incredible on turn for if you played Raza the Unchained
Kazakus: Staple in any good reno deck, Play this with Brann Bronzebeard against control decks to completely change the game!
Ysera: Big minion of the deck, tons of value and potential to win the game by itself.
Match-ups coming soon!

Will this deck be viable at Rank 10 if I replace Twilight Whelp and Blackwing Corruptor? I know they are very strong cards, but I'm not willing to buy Blackrock Mountain.
f2p btw
Yes it should be fine, but try to replace it with something of equivalent stats
ok, thanks
Don't want to be rude, but what ranks are you playing this in? On paper I think this looks worse then Savjz version, gonna try it even tho I have low hopes
I have been playing this between rank 7 and 3 ... its working decently well. Now you have to understand that I tried so many different shitty decks in the past couple days due to my Holiday series but i'll climb up in the next couple days and i'll update the deck accordingly.
Thanks for the reply, have been busy so I've had no time to reply, did get rank 4 with it this deck so not so bad :-)
Merry Christmas!
2.) The cards ysera can give you are all good, even the worst one is better than many class spell. Nefarian is mostly good against Mage, Priest and Warlock, but the rest can be very bad. Chance getting a Shield Slam, Totemic Might or Eye for an Eye is around 100%; especially warrior has so many many many bad games.
Thank you Velerios this is exactly why I chose Ysera
Well oh well, how aboutKabal Courier for the Coldarra Drake Otk chances?
It's a mage card. Playing it will allow you to hero power yourself to full health if you've already played raza.
Oh well, surprised with all the downs, I was just asking an opinion, it is not even a statement guys lol.
Yup. Courier is good without getting coldarra drake though, the combination of cards actually is worth putting in a reno deck. Not good enough for a singleton deck, but reno decks can usually take a small card quality hit.
Very nice deck, love the concept of it
Even though it's hard to draw dragon but you still can do something (like in my game play below)
This is my game play vs Renolock (which quite popular right now) This game play have bad topdeck but still managed to win :) my HP almost never go below 20 lol
Sorry for long duration gameplay (control vs control) but I input some songs so you won't be bored maybe :)

I don´t have Raza, would you recommend it without Raza and put in maybe Wrathion ?
Replacements for ysera ?
Nefarian
You could use deathwing that helps with the dragon synergy, and it also serves as a late game board clear. Other than deathwing you could add a childmaw that provides a good body along with taunt also providing the dragon synergy.
Still frequently find myself without a dragon in hand. The main issue with combining Reno with Dragons.
Also quite surprised, no Potion of Madness - one of the best cards against aggro.
why is thalnos in this deck??
He works well with board clears and he draws you a card. if you dont like him , you can always play harisson jones or ooze
