Hey Guys, it´s Jogono being back with a new and super unique deck that you have probably never seen before!

This guide will be about the famous OTK Dragon Priest, who wins his games with the Divine Spirit + Inner Fire Combo.

I will be online right when I´m done writing this guide, check me out: www.twitch.tv/jogonohs

I have been quite successful with this deck and fell in love with its unique playstyle, which is very refreshing after playing so much stupid curve decks.

So this deck is basiclly a mix of Orange´s and Tylers OTK Priest. I hit legend with Oranges list with a 70% wr, but felt that there were some adjustments that could benefit this deck.  The different between both decks are that Orange plays 2 Shadow Ascendant instead of 2 Tar Creeper, a Silence instead of a Mass Dispel, a Cabal Shadow Priest instead of a Crazed Alchemist and 2 Twilight Drakes instead of 2 Book Wyrms.

In my deck I kept the Ascendents, the Silence and swaped 1 Twilight Drake out for a Book Wyrm while cutting the Shadow Priest for the Alchemist. This makes the deck more aggro than the other decks while loosing a bit on the anti aggro side. It performs much better against the current control meta because its more resiliance against Skulking Geist!

So long bla bla lets get to the actuall guide.

This deck has little actuall go-to rules to play the game. You have to have a game plan suited to your current game situation. This feels very refreshing for me!

So lets start with the Control/Cube Lock matchup

The best and easiest way to win this matchup is to kill the lock before he pulls of his Lackey + Sac pack combo. So you look for Northshire Cleric, Power Word: Shield, Ascendent (much better than tar creeper in this matchup), Talonpriest and stuff.  Buff up the Cleric and go ham. Most of the time an 8/8 or a 10/10 cleric and turn 4 can win you the game easily. They often are not running Siphon Soul anymore so there is no hard removal except Twisting Nether. If he gets down the Voidlord it´s not a big deal yet. You can either silence it (I like it more in this situation than Mass Dispel) or steal it with the Twilight Acolyte + Potion of Madness [/card]Combo. In combination with [card]Divine Spirit and Inner Fire or Alchemist you can oneshot him easily. Overall this is probably one of your best matchups. But if he gets more than one Taunt on his board you are in quite some trouble because you dont run Mass Dispel.

Against Paladin:

Go for the Dragon route: Duskbreaker is key and also Historian to get more Duskbreaker. Otherwise try to contest the board early, with cleric into ascendent you can easily fight him. Also Potion is very potent into a Chum Rockpool hunter combo.

Against Secret Mage:

Quite the same game strategy. Duskbreaker is key. It triggers the explosive rune while clearing allmost all his minions (except the 5/5).

Control Warrior:

They cant do anything against your temporus! I think it is the only matchup where i could successfully pull him out.

Priest:

That one is difficult, mainly because of the many architypes. I think you are very favourite against Spiteful and the normal dragon one. They run many high Hp minions so going for the acolyte gameplan worked out quite well so far for me.

In the mirror. Well i dont know yet, i have to test it more. Try to not give them good steal targets is i think the best tip i can give you for now.

Some more general tips i can give you: Passing turns! There will be several moments where you could play a radiant elemental/ Talon Priest ect. to contest the board a little bit. But allways think about if you need the card later for your OTK. If you pass on playing them it could reward you later big time. VERY satisfying!

Also buffing an enemy voidlord or smth like this can win you games. Also feels wierd but sometimes you dont have the mana to steal and buff up the minion. Can also been used as a bluff with some bm emotes. Maybe they remove there own minions with this trick.

So this is it for now. I will play this deck now being in the top 3k on EU, come tune in: www.twitch.tv/jogonohs
