Raza priest is died either way with the darkness completely countering the whole deck
Darkness doesn't counter the deck, it just slows it down. They can manipulate draws somewhat and kill Darkness before it even attacks.
It's not about attacking with the darkness it could be a 6/6 and still see play the darkness is a straight counter to any highlander deck it is very important for them to gather more control tools on turn 4 with kazakus so they can survive to get their late game threats going
Burn mage will beat raza priest and so will Otk mage. Aggro druid, demon zoo and tempo rogue will beat Otk and burn mage. Raza priest will beat the aggro because of duskbreaker.
CW wil kill any anti - Priest to be honest. With the new board clear it hard for anydeck to develop a big board agaisnt him, and with lots of armor generation it harder to burn it down as well.

It's not a counter, I see what you're saying - 3 candles disables Raza etc - it's not a counter because A) they have to draw the darkness in time and B) they have to hope priests don't run hemet, which they will if people use The Darkness a lot.
The way people are speaking, it's almost as if you think you're 100% guaranteed to have The Darkness in your opening hand every single game vs a priest.
you are so wrong, That's the game's base already, If I have to draw darkness also Priest has to draw raza too.
It is like Razakus vs Razakus, the one who draws raza first wins the game. The game is already about that "Who draws her/his win condition first, she/he wins the game."
So before speaking about something, base upon them to something exists...
Darkness is counter of highlander decks the way like Harrison Jones is counter of all weapons. If you can't draw Harrison before your opponent uses all durability of her/his weapons, it is not the problem of Harrison, he is still all weapon's counter as well as Darkness...
PS: i did not tell about hemet because well.. you screwed things up at that moment. :D Darkness Candle

Not true at all, Razakus priest is at its strongest when it draws Raza early but its a deck that can and often does survive without Raza until late game its a deck that is built around clearing the board, Surviving and then burning by no means is it a "Draw Raza on 5 or bust" deck, Plus you're talking about a deck built around card draw in Razakus priest vs a deck with The Darkness thrown in, Ofcourse you'll have games where The Darkness is played on turn 4 and it will slow down Razakus priest but you'll see more games where the priest draws Raza or Kazakus or even both before The Darkness is drawn simply down to the draw that deck runs.
The Darkness is just the Geist against Jade Druids, Yes it helps if you draw in it time but by no means does that counter the deck not even close, We all saw the hundreds and thousands of "RIP JADE DRUID" when Geist was announced and we all see even now just how well that turned out, The Darkness is exactly the same thing, Its a card that improves your odds against a deck, Its not a counter to a deck, Theres a big difference between improving your odds and countering a deck, Theres a reason Razakus priest goes late game its because it can go late game its built to survive until late game and 3 extra cards in the deck does'nt stop it doing that, It had the tools already to go to fatigue against most decks it now has more tools to go that late, Dont get me wrong The Darkness will slow Razakus priest down and is a very interesting and fun card but its not more a counter than Geist was to Jade Druid, Both improve your odds against those decks but if they countered the deck the deck would simply not be played and that just is'nt going to be the case.
They still have alot of survival,Removal, Board clears, They still have Anduin and they have the ability to adapt aswell, You could see dragon razakus priests, Quest razakus priests, Personally i hope The Darkness surprises me because i really want to see Dragon Priest and Quest Priest rise but i just dont see it and even if it does.......Those priests still have Big Priest to fall back on and thats looking alot stronger too.
Exactly what will happen. Noobs or pleps thinking, The Darkness is the bane of Raza Priest ! LUL LEL !Come on, use your brain. Did Geist kill Jade Drood? NOPE. Do people run eater of secrets against Quest Mage? NOPE.
Yes it will help your odds but thats it, they have enough cards and tools to survive if that happens. So please, think before you talk people or rather dont say anything unless its constructive ;)

You are right, I'm already with you but I just can't understand why people refusing that the darkness is the counter tech for highlander decks, just like Beneath the Grounds. I'm not saying "rip razakus priest" "yaay die little insect ! ". even if i face perpatually with razakus, it is fun to play against it because it is more enjoyable than playing against aggro (like pirate warrior). I'm just saying especially like you it is a tech card like geist. it is not a burst damage card; well, its body is excellent but that is just the card's extra resource. The main job of card is adding 3 candles to oppenent's deck just like Beneath the Grounds so I'm just expostulating about people who refuses the darnkess' candles otherwise I agree with you, I'm just hoping as this tech card will decrease the razakuses on ladder.
I mean, Considering it like "If my darkness will be my last card, I will lose against raza so I should not put my deck the darkness because of this probability" is just silly, meaningless. If the community does not refuse Harrison Jones, Eater of Secrets, Oozes, Skulking Geist, etc. They should not refuse The Darkness either. My problem is that only. Otherwise, I am aware of that The Darkness' only instant effect is his candles and no instant body attached but this doesn't mean The Darkness is 4-mana do nothing.

It is not my problem your "meta" decks, PRO-gods dont use eater against quest mage, I'm using and beating them with one little card, They always concedeing against it. So, We are trying to be constructive and you re bringing here just your childish expressions. We are trying to reach some point but you re just caring about calling people "noob" or something like that pathetic and miserable attitude. Don't bring your non-sense arguments from your den.

I really sometimes the most of community are kids and I drop away to their intelligence level.
I hate myself when this happened. I guess I must stay away from this rancid, fusty community.

If you give up 4 mana worth of tempo it's unlikely they will struggle to make it to the late game. The Darkness slows them down, but it doesn't counter them. It might increase your winrate against them by a small amount, but that's about it.

Priest wont be able to survive to draw Raza/Anduin. The new tools mage has will push burn mage back to the front
Where dragon priest completely torches her.
Idk man that’s a bold prediction. What if aluneth is in the bottom of your deck? What’s your draw engine?
Raza priest is died either way with the darkness completely countering the whole deck
But they have Hemet to COUNTER-COUNTER!
Burn mage will beat raza priest and so will Otk mage. Aggro druid, demon zoo and tempo rogue will beat Otk and burn mage. Raza priest will beat the aggro because of duskbreaker.
Leyline mage should be pretty consistent against razakus also
Hemet doesn't destroy the candles, they cost 4 mana.
CW wil kill any anti - Priest to be honest. With the new board clear it hard for anydeck to develop a big board agaisnt him, and with lots of armor generation it harder to burn it down as well.

HAAA HA! Thrill of the HUNT!
Edit: @ OP JarSniffer-- Is your avatar that creepy looking BmKiebler dog pic? That is like a fart in a jar ya can sniff!
I enjoy.
well rogue 100% of the time have keleseth in their opening hand so it cant be that hard
Take a look at my most recent deck, Watch post, totem, menagerie shaman.
Yes it will help your odds but thats it, they have enough cards and tools to survive if that happens. So please, think before you talk people or rather dont say anything unless its constructive ;)

So, about aggro mage...? What does the deck have that will break the meta?
