Hey guys, Nana here once again bringing you another fun deck to play in Rise Of Shadows. This is is a version 2 of a ress priest deck I've been having some success with on the ladder since the version 1 will be in wild soon. Here we go;
CORE CARDS
Zerek, Master Cloner, Da Undatakah, Catrina Muerte, Recurring Villain and Mass Resurrection
SUPPORT CARDS
Dead Ringer, Vivid Nightmare, Banana Buffoon and Convincing Infiltrator
TECH CARDS
DRAW
Northshire Cleric, Power Word: Shield and of course Dead Ringer
REMOVAL/SURVIVAL
Forbidden Words, Zilliax, Mass Hysteria as well as any other minions on board
GENERAL MULLIGAN;
Hand to go for if you don't know what archetype your opponent is or is control
VS AGGRO
Hand to go for vs aggro. Forbidden Words, Extra Arms, More Arms! and Power Word: Shield help you to control the board in conjunction with Northshire Cleric or Dead Ringer in the early game.
VS MIDRANGE
Same idea as in vs. aggro decks. If your opponent seems to be slow relative to you, you can go straight ahead and start your shenanigans with Recurring Villain.
This is how simple a normal game will go for you;
- Play Dead Ringer and draw Recurring Villain.
- Let Recurring Villain die 2 or 3 times or draw the second copy and let that one die too.
- Play Da Undatakah who will get those deathrattles and copy him with Vivid Nightmare
- Da Undatakahs now dies summoning 4-6 copies of themselves.
- Catrina Muerte and Mass Resurrection come in and turn it up to 11
- Profit!
TIPS:
- One cool thing with Zerek, Master Cloner that a lot of people don't know and I want to share is that, When you copy him with Vivid Nightmare, each of the copies will have the copy buff and both will be resurrected when they die. Eg. You cast Vivid NIghtmare on Zerek, Master Cloner, you now have two Zereks that will each ressummon another Zerek, Master Cloner. Very sweet right?
- Try to get as many deathrattle cards like Zerek, Master Cloner, Recurring Villain and Convincing Infiltrator in the ress pool before you play either Catrina Muerte or Mass Resurrection. It increases your odds of summoning those instead on cards like Northshire Cleric, Dead Ringer or Banana Buffoon .This method will reduce the chances of you summoning weak minions that were added to the ress pool from any source.
COMBOS/SYNERGIES
- Zerek, Master Cloner and Convincing Infiltrator plus any spell preferably Vivid Nightmare to increase the likelihood of them being resurrected.
- Catrina Muerte plus Seance
- Recurring Villain plus any spell that increases his attack like Extra Arms, More Arms!
- Da Undatakah plus Seance or any cheap spell. The reason for this is, if you want Da Undatakah to resurrect himself when he dies with Zereks deathrattle, he must have a spell buff on him just like Zerek, Master Cloner but it must be cheap so you can play them on the same turn.
Reasons for certain changes;
- Took out Archmage Vargoth cause he's too slow for this deck and his only use is being lucky to be resurrected by Mass Resurrection so he can cast him again. I needed to make cuts for certain important cards and he sadly didn't make it. I'll still be looking for ways to include him if I can.
- Also took out Mass Dispel for the same reason, we now got a good 4-drop in Recurring Villain so I think we'll be okay. If not, I'll introduce it in the future.
- Took out Grave Horror 'cause I needed space for Banana Buffoon and he's too slow anyways. By the time he gets dropped it already in the late game so not really an aggro deterrent
- Power Word: Replicate unfortunately also had to be cut because it's too slow and we need more board control in the deck in the form of Forbidden Words
- Took out Shadowy Figure because it's too slow and has only a few targets for more defense.
Version 1/Past version:
The first version had to do with resurrecting Zerek, Master Cloner as many times as possible with the help of various spells ( decklist will be at the bottom) and this one aims to do the same (we win through attrition of 5/5 most of the time) is even better. WIth the new changes to Da Undatakah on the latest patch, our goal is now to summon a bunch of 8/5's instead of 5/5. From now Da Undatakah will ressummon himself when he gets the deathrattle of Zerek, Master Cloner and it's safe to say that the same applies to the new ROS card, Recurring Villain

You can leave your suggestions and questions in the comments below and if you like the deck don't forget to give it a +1, thanks. Note that the deck is subject to change in the process of fine tuning it for ladder.
as a priest player since Beta, one Word:
Trash.
Can you blame him though? Standard Priest as a whole is a joke right now... Out of sheer boredom I went ahead and grinded out the Arthas class portrait and forgot how powerful priest really was a few years ago. Delving back with the old sets, the number of board clears and synergies we had was out of this world. Miss those days
I think the deck needs more board removal and healing except Forbidden Words, Zilliax, Mass Hysteria because you need board control if you want your combos to be good. I had one win and that was not a good win because the opponent quit after he had lethal. So i added more board removal like Power word: pain and Power word: Death and I added Divine hymn to have more healing. I removed one Cleric, one Banana buffon and one Proud defender. I think one Cleric is good enough, two Proud defenders are too much and I think one Banana buffon isn't so useful so i removed one because you have then four Bananas and I don't play all four most of the time, so removal or healing is better than two Bananas. After I made these changes I won a game. This is only my opinion so the deck maker and any other person maybe won't agree with me but it helped me with more board removal and healing
Thank you for reading this :D
PS - if anyone wants to add me they can: RoyalWyvern#21351
sorry, but this is trash deck
I modified the deck a little. I found it too slow against aggro and the lack of weapon removal really puts you at a disadvantage.
My changes:
-1 Northshire Cleric - I oddly found it clunky with the rez pool and I rarely played the second copy late game.
-1 Catrina Muerte - Too slow and situational for me. If you are at the stage where you are winning and controlling the board, you don't need to play this card. It becomes a win more card. And if you are behind, you likely didn't get your important deathrattles out onto the board so your rez pool is pretty weak.
+1 Swamp Ooze - I can tempo it out against non-weapon classes to give me some early board or save it for obvious weapon removal.
+1 Mass Dispel : I found I needed some form of silence to deal with all the value minions out there in the late game. Helped me deal with Druid's Lucentbark and double Faceless shenanigan, or buff Paladin decks. Also gives a little extra card draw with the removal of the Northshire Cleric.
If I had to make further changes, I would probably drop Da Undatakah and tech in silence or another buff spell. Again, Undatkah card felt like a win more card the more greedy I got with the buffs on Recurring Villain and Zarek, and usually wound up sitting in my hand unneeded to win.
A res priest shouldn't have so many minions that cost below 4.
Check this deck guys! Fun and consistent! https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1262492-famafountas-mechrattle-hunter
Not feeling this deck, you ressurect low level minions, you get bad deathrattle for undertakah and it's very slow.
Can be hard to pull off and when you do your just as likely to get dead ringers and convincing infiltrators in undah's deathrattle especialy if your forced to mass resurect its like rolling dice. still fun to play will lots of fun shinanigens...upvoted!
This deck can hardly win any matches.
Recurring Villain, Zerek, Master Cloner, Undatakah, Catrina Muerte
All of the core cards do not have taunt.
By the time you pull of the combo, you get kicked in the face.
you guys are too focused on wins and losses imo. its day 1 or 2, play new cards, have fun, and experiment.
but nah, i'll just copy and paste the best deck like everyone else. meta solved in a day. jeez eh?
Good on the creator of this deck for being original and creative. thumbs up!!
now back to new cards, there are still about 150 i havent tried yet!
I'm enjoying it so far! I made a few swaps: I have a pair of Baleful Bankers to keep shuffling legendaries into my deck, and I added a pair of Mass Dispels to deal with buffing Paladins and Warriors and such. I took out the Proud Defenders and Forbidden Words. I may be more vulnerable to conventional aggro, but most of my games at the start of the new set are against attrition Warriors, so the long-term bent has been working well.
What a great Deck !!!!! and what a cool Guide after I went 0-3 i´ve got reallllllyyyy cool Combos out , thx :D Also must Fun Deck in this Expansion I´ve played so far :)
There's probably a good base for something here but it's probably not worth running Banana Buffoon and Recurring Villain lmfao
Don’t craft this... can’t win against any aggro and is barely able to win against late decks either... it’s a fun deck but does not have enough tempo nor big minions to force anything down like other decks have. For this amount of dust you can craft something better, luck bomb or mech warrior, or steal rogue...
Don’t make same mistake as I did, don’t throw dust at this...
Really needs silence, due to all the Paladin buff decks...
Agree. I am playing 2 copies of Mass Dispel in my resurrection otk priest.
Is there any room for Archmage Vargoth in this deck?
PlayArchmage Vargoth and let it die.
Next turn play Mass Resurrection and hope it will resurrect Archmage Vargoth again, which will cast another Mass Resurrection at the end of the turn. That would be golden!
I don't have Zerek so i added Vargoth and it works like a charm. Often he is among the ressurected and this way you get so much body on the board. Insane!
This deck dont have counter vs all you need perfect mulligan to do anything vs like silence priest or burglar rogue. Vs OTK this is worst 0 chance to win. vs midrange this is fine. vs fatigue this is 4/5 or how i can say it better
