Priest is going to be nerfed in a month or so, I guarantee.
This priest set is Frozen Throne Druid level oppressive.
A minion that steals attack (just because Shadow Word Death was simply not enough), an turn 4 Dragon Abyssal Enforcer, a spell that literally craps on every board in existance, a terribly good spell for big priest, a very good weapon for every priest that uses a fuckton of spells...
I'm pretty much afraid control non-priest is dead this comming expansion.
I don't think the cabal shadow priest combo is real, considering Pint Sized+ Cabal has been in standard forever for 2 less mana and with no required dragon synergy and yet hasn't really seen any play.
Yeah, but Shrinkmeisterdid see a lot of play when it was in Standard. The big difference between these two cards and the potion is that the attack swap sticks, and you get a minion on the board.
Ugh. The power level of cards is getting crazy. At one time big game hunter was too efficient at 3 mana and needed a nerf. Now you can just steal the stats of the big minion.
I liked how playing Ysera against priest was a safe play most of the time. Now I don’t know what to do...
even if you dont have 2 attack or less synergy spells to follow up, the ability to basically peacekeeper plus get a [bigger attack]/4 for 3 is worth it. Also good in preparation for losing some of the cards that deal with 4 attack minions.
So it is an aldor peacekeeper that is conditional but gets buffed off the effect. I would run aldor over it in paladin, but since it is a priest card I see potential, priest has health buffs to make sure the minion sticks multiple turns with high attack it might get, and putting something to two attack can be very useful in priest both because that is the amount priests can heal by. I bet that if their is a dragon priest this expansion this will be in some lists.

Just fill your deck with one drops, that is creative deck design, right?
Hard to see Priest having any bad matchup anymore. This is great against Razakus' bad matchups that rely on exploiting the lack of cheap big minion removal aside from Death.
The only bad targets for this are minions with sub 3 attack, so against swarm decks, which Priest already has other tools to deal with. That class is going to become god damn unstoppable.
This card will be played in most dragon priest lists imo. The effect is too strong. We saw with Blackwing Corruptor that you don't need to be a dragon to be played in a dragon list.
What I really love is that this thing has 4 health. So if somebody plays only a big minion, like say VanCleef, or a Giant, and it gets swapped, it is unable to kill the now high-attack Kobold on its own.

Exactly.
This card is forking ridiculous.
Any big attack minion can have its only redeeming value "stolen" by this card.
How do you play against Priest now? Board clears, Raza/Anduin, and now this... the slim hope you have that a large threat dropped might survive and do some damage... gone. And not just gone, converted into an offensive powerhouse for the Priest player.

I am so demoralized, and so angry.
That's certainly a good day to be a priest main :D
Only broken cards for priest. 12/12 Edwin VanCleef ? No problem I have Twilight Acolyte. You can concede now. Have you played the Bittertide Hydra? Sure. You know where is the concede button right? Broken dragons Razakus new meta.
I hate priest as much as the next guy, as for this card, but it's kind of ironic that you compare it with another broken card (edwin)

I dont belive that the new dragons decks are curve, are more control style

Rip 4 attack minions....

So, blizzard gives priets a better Aldor Peacekeeper, a class that already have the some of the strongest tools and people say it's not good enough.
Wtf is wrong with you people.

I get it. Blizzard is giving priest so many amazing cards that that people won't know what to put in their priestsone decks!
BTW, yet another card to to add to the list of other class cards that are better than a similar Paladin card.
This card will be played in most dragon priest lists imo. The effect is too strong. We saw with Blackwing Corruptor that you don't need to be a dragon to be played in a dragon list.

We can all play priest next season! Can't wait for such amazing diverse meta!
