I hit Legend rank with my new deck, Nomi & Witches. https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1273064-nomi-witches-legend-rank
That Archbishop is good for around 2nd rank. It is hard to hit legend rank. But I still playing this deck for fun.
I built this deck myself. 5 rank to 2 rank, 75% win rate (18-6). It is fun! And it is 100% win rate against warriors about 5 games. I called this deck, Archbishop because mages join priest. Bishop can learn the mage spells.
Update: 4/19/2019
My rank was down to rank 5 because I made many mistakes and I played aggro to attack hero lot. I need to do defense too. I changed my deck too. It is better much, My current rank is 2 now. I just found out that my deck needs draws lot! I decided to change Mulligan. This deck is very hard to play. If you have skill then you can play that deck. You can't do 1 or 2 mistakes. You must think how your plan for lethal at end. Don't forget about defense too.
This deck is 20-6 vs Druids! And 9-3 vs Priests, 11-8 vs Warriors.
15-15 vs Rogues (mix with old deck and I made many mistakes too). Since I changed deck and I played very careful! It is 6-3 now.
Removed: 1 Dalaran Librarian, 1 Ancient Mage, 1 Extra Arms, 1 Spellbook Binder
Added: 1 Belligerent Gnome, 2 Faceless Rager, 1 Sunfury Protector
5/12/2019: Removed Belligerent Gnome; Added Mass Dispel
Opinion: Mass Hysteria, Mass Dispel, Shadow Word: Death
Strategy:
My deck is not like Wall or Rez Priest decks. It is like tempo. You can use inner fire and Divine Spirit early or end. You don't worry about save both spells for combo. You just do use inner fire on Mana Reservoir (2nd turn or 3rd turn). 6/6 is great for early! You won't waste it because this deck has mind blast and it will help for lethal at end. Mind blasts and Holy Novas are great with Archmage Vargoth. I did use one mind blast for 16 damages a turn with Vargoth (3 spell damages added). (I will update more. I need a break time)
Mulligan Guide
Note: Need 1 or 2 draw cards. And 2 minions (cost 1 or 2) for aggro druid, warlock, and Shaman. Remove Holy Nova for Mass Dispel if you see many mech Paladins, mech Hunters and any mech decks.
Power Word: Shield (must always)
Mana Reservoir (if you get inner fire or Faceless Rager)
Northshire Cleric (must always)
Belligerent Gnome (always)
Holy Nova (Druid, Shaman and Warlock)
Arcane Watcher (If you get spell damage card or Dalaran Librarian)
Acolyte of Pain (must always)
Faceless Rager (if you get Mana Reservoir, Belligerent Gnome and can play it with 3 health, 5-3 is good value for 3 cost)
Hench-Clan Shadequill (Warrior if you don't get Arcane Watcher)
Inner Fire (if you get Mana Reservoir)
Dalaran Librarian (If you don't get 1 or 2 cost minions) (Keep Extra Arms)
Spellbook Binder (If you don't get 1 or 2 cost minions) (You can summon it without draw on 2nd turn. It is good stat, 3-2)
I will update this post. I will see if my deck could hit legend rank. I will do my best!
Check my deck, Wild Archbishop for wild mode. It is 97% win rate (28-1) at 25 rank to 10 rank. https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1267462-wild-archbishop-97-win-rate
The fact that the deck this bad is present on the main Priest page should mean something... I rarely downvote something but in that case I would actually prefer people not to waste time, dust and nerves on it.
This deck is only 2680 dusts. It is not hurt. Everyone got free Archmage Vargoth too. I decided to play this again. I think it still good (not mean best). I won lot games vs mages today. I was almost to hit legend rank with this deck last month. It was 2nd rank. This deck can be difficult to play with over 50% win rate.
This is what I got with the below deck code, not very good results. 4/13 wins, 30% win rate.
*** At Rank 5 ***
WIN v.s. Dragon Warrior (lucky double divine / inner fire turn 5 win lethal)
LOSS v.s. Heal Druid (couldn't get past dupped 4/8 taunt and heals)
LOSS v.s. Dragon Pally (tempo'd down)LOSS v.s. Hand Mage (out valued, had no draw)
LOSS v.s. Mech Hunter (out tempo'd, now way to deal with mechs)
LOSS v.s. Shuffle Lock (taunt blocking my 2xDivine minion, no way to deal with it)
WIN v.s. Tempo Rogue (had board whole game, arcane watcher/faceless, into SP with holy nova)
WIN v.s. Darkest Hour Warlock (went wide with imps, hade nova/minions to counter)
WIN v.s. Tempo Rogue (bluffed 2xDivine/inner on turn 8-9, conceded
LOSS v.s. Tempo Rogue (no SP activators, no draw, was out tempo'd)
LOSS v.s. Hand Warlock (removed my minions, out valued me if I drew SP minions sooner I could have killed with 2xDivine/inner)
LOSS v.s. Tempo Rogue (no SP minions to use with watcher)
LOSS v.s. Hand Mage (froze my board 3 turns in a row, died to his minions)
LOSS v.s. Conj Mage (kadgar on 7 w/ mnt. giant)
Yea I just said this deck is very hard to play. You can try my nomi & witches deck. https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1273064-nomi-witches-top-400-legend
Great deck! Removed one holy nova and added a mass dispell works like a charm! Mech warriors and token druid are getting served! +1
Thanks! Yea Mass Dispel can help for silence taunts and draw too. I just said it is opinion. Holy Nova can get extra spell damages too. Mass Hysteria is good but I don't want my minions die by this spell. My deck is for keep minions alive. I need them for defense too. Good luck for ladder ranking.
Any replacements for Bloodmage? :)
Bloodmage is best for this deck because it needs draw and spell. If you don't want craft it, maybe Belligerent Gnome or Kobold Geomancer
Hey ! I am so glad I found your deck, last night I posted this https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1268288-tempo-priest-ros very similar, I wil ltry your approach of fast draw spell dmg. I focused on circle of healing auchenais for board wipes just to deal with hunters and token druids . And was testing with Shieldbearer to buy myself time and prevent damage warriors to get buffed. I havent played it enough to work it out but I think is great that this 'new' priest type has a lot of potential and hopefully it will get better with following expansions giving us back some of our draw (mind visions) /and taunt options (tar and stonehill). let me know any thoughts, thanks for the mulligan guide too, its very helpful.
Ok cool! I will try play your deck.
Really Nice!
As a priest player, I was stuck without any convincing archetype. I was leading to the same conclusion, we need a hybrid deck.
I think you find something really good here!
I am glad that you like my deck. Good luck for ladder ranking.
