I was all ready to reck all these Priests and Exodia Mages, but instead are getting beat down by Hunters and Secret Mages. Priest is OP guys, I promise! please ladder up more :)
Problem is Hunters are good against priests and beat down exodia mages with closed eyes and even have better chances against jades now after nerf, so of course they are on ladder, some people brought hunters to playoffs for a reason... Secret mages are just good for a while now... Also how close are you to legend?
It's weird that mage doesn't currently show up in the top 5 win rate classes at any rank on the vicious syndicate live meta report (currently showing hunter and shaman as the top 2) despite priest being the most played class.
Secret mage gets pwned by token shaman though so there is that to consider.
Token shaman gets pwned by priest though too.
Priest also doesn't show up in the top 5 win rate classes at any rank.
Kirin Tor Mages and Sorceror's Apprentices have enough attack to kill a Bearshark, as does a buffed Mana Wyrm.
It is a fairly even matchup though (didn't play much because I then got a 40g quest to kill minions which I want to reroll tonight).
Looking bad for Archmage Tony if shaman is in the top 2 win rate classes :(
Has anyone tried Big Priest to beat Kazamakus Priest? I have Y'Shaarj but would also need to craft another Obsidian Statue, Ysera, Lich King (maybe one of Ysera/Lich King can be replaced with a Free From Amber to make a budget Big Priest).

Having played a lot of Razakus, I think it's close to even if not favored for Razakus Priest. Big Priest is just annoying.

Life before death. Strength before weakness. Journey before destination.
Ok, will stick to my mage and hope I don't see a lot of shaman,
My wild resurrect priest with Y'Shaarj usually beats priests in wild (plus they have Reno there too!). It's significantly less big than Big Priest though (but runs 2x Injured Blademaster which is annoying for priests). My version of the deck on US server without Y'Shaarj but having Ysera, Deathwing did well too yesterday.
What I find weird is the increased number of Standard decks showing up in Wild (around ranks 8-5). And I don't mean a type of deck like "What if he has 2 Wild ones and you didn't see them?"-type, no, I am talking about a fatigue game where my opponent has neither played a Wild card nor discovered one (and the possibilities were endless, for example through a Stonehill Defender). So, that is odd to me.
There are a lot of non-golden priest portraits out there now. Being a priest mainer for years myself I must say that I rarely lose priest vs priest to a non-golden portrait. It might be being played a lot right now but it couple simply be that a good portion playing priest now are just not very good priest players yet.

I switch between them quite a bit and sometimes I queue into wild with a standard deck. I don't realize until they drop a DR7. I assume others do the same.

The whining priest mains have finally gotten all the shit they have been spending months crying and whining for, and now they are being exposed as really crappy players.
I'm not sure if y'all are playing it wrong, but so far I have above 50% win rate against hunter. Sure some games come close to the wire and for Priest to win you usually have to play the long game (against hunter). Are you just assuming you'll lose and conceding? That's a mistake with priest. If you want to concede on "obvious loss" games priest is not the class for you.
WTF is up with all these people claiming Priest is OP? Like wtf get gud.

Play fatigue warrior, it has no problems as long as there are no exodia mages or paladins around

Well, at least you wouldn't avoid discovering one even if you use a Standard deck, am I right?

I will say Prophet velen makes the hunter game easier... so if you don't have him....
Problem is Rogue and Hunter can both beat Priest .
And from the nerfed decks the one that came out the least damaged is Jade druid that is also a Priest killer .
