This is an OTK combo deck featuring Ysiel Windsinger as the primary combo engine.
For the combo to go off we need to discount either Ysiel Windsinger or Malygos two times or, preferably, both of them one at a time since it gives a bigger discount overall by one mana. For discounting we use Imprisoned Satyrs. We absolutely have to make sure the discount lands on either/both Ysiel Windsiger or Malygos that is why we run only the necessary minimal amount of minions of our deck excluding Kael'thas Sunstrider which is just too good to pass. However we can't allow the discount to go on Kael'thas that's why we have to play it before Imprisoned Satyr awakens. Luckily for us, we can play the satyr on one turn and Kael'thas on the next, which makes it more convenient.
When we have both Ysiel Windsinger and Malygos in hand and both/either of them are discounted twice, we can perform the combo. If we still have Kael'thas Sunstrider sticking around it will be even easier to go off. We play both Ysiel Windsinger and Malygos and then cast two Nourishes, effectively gaining mana as well as drawing cards. Then we copy Malygos once with Germination and kill the opponent with two Starfires. We can also use Swipes for that purpose if we damaged the opponent a bit.
An important moment: we have to keep our Nourishes for the combo because it is the only way to ramp while Ysiel Windsinger is on board - Innervate will cost one mana which nullifies its effect (it is here mainly for earlier Kael'thas Sunstrider shenanigans). There is also a small possibility of discovering a Nourish with Worthy Expedition which is also good.
A few questions concerning the deck.
1) Why use Ysiel over just going with normal Malygos or Maly/Kaelthas? I feel like all three might be overkill.
2) Whether Imprisoned Satyr is good over something like Dreampetal Florist is yet to be seen, do you think 2x Imprisoned is better than 1x Dreampetal? Remember Kaelthas can be used with Innervates and Moonfires after quest on turn 5-6 to cheat out Nourish and possibly pop off if you draw more cheap spells and/or run things like Biology Project (it's just that I doubt there's room for Ysiel then, as it just turns into a Kaelthas deck).
3) And about the Quest, do you think this deck can survive against any aggro deck? You removed some early/mid game cards to make room for the combo, and if it isn't like a turn 6-7 combo I doubt you can do much against Hunter, Warrior, Demon Hunter or Rogue except use all your damage spells early to survive and pray you draw Hidden Oasis...
1) The whole point of this deck is to use Ysiel, it's not about effectiveness.
2) Dreampetal is rotating, bro.
3) That remains to be seen. The deck can slot in more anti-aggro tools if necessary, but I don't want to do it preemptively, before the expansion launches. I will be adjusting the list as the meta will shape up.
