Hearthpwn

first game I did i won and i didnt even know what i was doing, second I won as well but it took till almost turn 7 taking damage against a pally which wasnt too bad i guess but in the end he quit on me.

Looks pretty interesting, I'm definitely going to try it.

What would you recommend to replace Zilliax with? Would Stonehill Defender be a good replacement?

10-18 around rank 9. This has brought me nothing but shit draws and disappointment. The idea is cool but so far most wins have been luck, not skill. Knowing when to clear and hold aside, I had trouble clearing vs aggro and always trouble with handsize vs control.

I realize i sound negative, I am not. I would love all advice, I sunk some dust into this just because Velen is a classic and always useful and zerek's was the only other legendary I needed since i got Bwonsamdi as my loa. I already have Spell Hunter, but I wanted a deck that needs a brain.

It's a tough deck to play and it is dependent on the matchups, clone priest has some pretty polarizing ones.  My only problem is that I think this is actually weaker than the normal clone priest. Try that out and see if you have the same problems.

I know Ziliax is really strong and all, but do you have any suggestions for replacements? Maybe I should just craft it...

1-6 after crafting Zerek's for this deck, I must be missing something.

 Relax, gallery priest is the hardest deck to play with at this moment.. it takes a loooooot of practice 

Love the deck, not sure Lyra is needed as no gargoyle. Thunk witchwood grizzly May be better. Super fun though went 6-2 at rank 5-4

Swapped a SW: Death for Vivid Nightmare!

Nice deck. I don't have the lich king but added lyra (at worst it's a soft taunt which lets you survive longer. I just won vs even warlock by ressing Zilliax 3 times. It's doing good so far. You need to pay attention when you get lethal because it sometimes happens by surprise ;-)

Fun deck!

Because of the way the meta has slowed down since the expansion this deck is very strong in most matchups. Even against aggro if you mulligan aggressively for early stabilization it's still around 50/50. I was also looking for a way to add rastakhan cards to this archetype and this was a good place to start.

I opted out of anduin/-1 shadow of death for LYRA(v important imo) and an extra spirit lash, got the idea from @Thermometer, and I'm coasting on 6 wins in a row in brawlesium and ladder (rank 7-6).

Thanks for the post.

Right now I'm 9-2 in the Brawliseum with this deck. At first sight it looked bad, but then it turned out to be pretty good and I had a lot of fun! Congratulations to the deck builder. Hopefully this will be competitive in ranked games, too... We will se in a few weeks, when the meta settles down. Anyway, I'm not playing exactly the list shown here, because I don't have certain cards. So here's what I'm actually playing:

Holy Smokes!

This deck rocks hard!

I mean, I switched one of the Mass Hysteria with Lyra...

But otherwise it´s insane value!

So I've had decent success with this deck, despite having literally no clue how to properly play it. Works for me.

0-2 so far

played another priest second game and the had the new priest legend that puts all creatures from hand into play (that didn't start in hand).

Had to concede after i was forced to psychic scream (my velen/spirit were out).

had everything but Zerek's, so it's not a total loss, but I crafted a legend. However, at least Zerek's works for other things. 

You should craft Zilliax, he's THE card of Boomsday.

Sadness?

for me is -anduin, -sw deatch, +spirit lash + statue

im not a fan of lyra cuz u have no gargoyles

results are great, if you are able to taunt your ass you have another wining condition because its too heavy for your oponent.

as early clears are good lash and hysteria.

really good idea with this deck.
