Hello,

My name is Arveira. I have been legend on Europe multiple times and want to share this deck list with you.

This is my version of OTK priest. As you can see this deck is very similar to big minion priest but without Barnes because he rotated out. I'm having good succes on ladder and it's a fun and original deck to play.

General gameplay:

This deck is good because it has a positive winrate against cubelock and quest rogue which are dominant decks in the meta right now and does decent against aggro as well.

As you can see the list runs double Spirit Lash, Holy Nova and Psychic Scream. I think this is necessary because with the rotation of Shadow Word: Horror and Pint-Size Potion you need all the removal possible against aggro. Further the list runs only 4 different minions and these are not replaceable in my opinion. With Shadow Essence you always get a good result. Even if it hits the Gilded Gargoyle you get a 5/5 which gives a coin that will make it possible to get your big minions faster on the board.

Against control I mulligan for shadow essence,gargoyles and Shadow Visions. You want to get velen and malygos on the field to combo them with Mind Blast. Don't be afraid to slam Prophet Velen or Malygos on turn 7 or 9. You want them to die so you can summon them much cheaper with Lesser Diamond Spellstone and Eternal Servitude. Be carefull of priests who run mind control though. With spellstone, double mind blast and coin you can burst them for 40 dmg which happens much more often than you think. Another combo is velen with Vivid Nightmare into coin double mindblast for the same 40 dmg. If you low on health don't hesitate to use velen with spirit lash which heals an absurd amount.

Against aggro you want to mulligan for spirit lash, gargoyles, nova and shadow word: pain. Keep removing the board because late game is yours.

Replacements:

However I have good results with this deck I feel it still needs some refinement. Please try it out and give me some feedback. I've tried substituting holy smite with holy fire but got mediocre results.

 

Conclusion:

Thanks for reading my guide and be sure to give it a shot. I am sure you will have fun with it and hopefully you wil lsee the possibilities and true power of my list. It requires some thought process when to play certain cards and when not to, but if you're able to master it, you will have a positive winrate against all matchups.
Feel free to share my decklist with everyone you know but please give me the credits for this specific list.

Greetings,

Arveira
