Got into th same problem. There is just an easy out against the quest. Play nothing at all until turn whatsoever, because the rez priest himself can't do anything. If this decks plays actively, it loses value. Most other control oriented deck do outvalue it in the long run.
Wonderful deck. Didn't meet many DH in Diamond, though. But it worked really well against spell druid, gala warlock and albatros priest. Thanks a lot.
Works like a charm! Sometimes it's tough against DH higlander tho.
I don't have Sould Mirror and did new small changes (removed Penance and added small spells like Silence). Deck is insane again DH. When I see one of them, i keep smiling.
Batterhead is OP in this deck.
will this be difficult to pilot for someone who hasn't played much priest before, please?
looking for a deck in within the 10k limit, this might be the right deck.
It’s not difficult, but it’s a slow deck. Don’t expect much action the first 5 turns or so.
I'm still just waiting before committing to anything. including this expac I have missed 3, so I basically have to build a deck almost entirely to have something to play.
I usually wade right in at the start of an expac as I love that time when everyone is trying out new things. that is not the case now though, everyone is playing demon hunter pretty much.
I could just craft a few demon hunter cards, or even open some packs to get some, but if DH isn't gonna be what I want to play, then it's a waste of time and resources.
I'm starting to think highlander mage might be it for me. I'm not concerned with the highest win rates, just want a deck that I enjoy (but isn't terrible) I also don't want to piss off my opponent too much, so trying to avoid decks people don't like to face. (I think this might be one of them?
Really like this deck vs post-nerf DH, which is literally 100% of what I'm seeing in Plat (10/10 games so far today).
Refined a bit to strengthen the early game - TLDR:
Removed 1x: Reliquary of Souls, Batterhead, Mass Resurrection, Plague of Death
Added 2x: Shadow Word: Pain, Shadow Word: Death
Explanation:
DH goes absolutely nuts turns 2-7, and drawing into multiple Plague of Death or Mass Resurrection feels really bad. Similarly Reliquary of Souls is instantly removed and it's benefit of Reliquary Prime is expensive and bypassed with Kayn Sunfury while also polluting your Psychopomp resurrection pool. The Shadow Words give you efficient answers to many of DH's biggest threats, and can be played early enough to matter.
Reliquary i can see dropping, but the rest is to needed. its very rare that I've had a game were any shadow word would bail me out, if any.
Fair - sounds like you're luckier than I am (not hard to do). The reason for removing a single copy of the other cards was that I drew 2x Plague of Death or Mass Ress by the seventh turn in 14 of 20 games - a statistical improbability that showcases my average luck in HS. DH usually won against me by turn 8, thus having those dead cards felt horrible - the Shadow Words never single-handedly won me games, but they gave me time to get to those bigger spells.
i have played against this fucking bullshit 15 games in a row can you all please learn to play something besides this!
unlucky mate
really? I've come across similar priests, but I don't think i've come across this comp specifically, at all.
Went 33-15 with this deck. Hit legend for the first time. Only lost to DH if they ran perfect, and I got unlucky. If you can remove the priestess you have a chance. Running soul mirror into it feels really good
I must be playing the deck wrong. First I precede to face 5 non DH decks in a row. Then when I face two I lose both times. I think it could do with more card draw.
priest has no card draw at the moment. FeelsBadMan
Sounds like you're dumping your cards unnecessarily, most games I have 5+ cards in hand at all times.
Your goal really is to just survive, taking offensive shots when the openings are there
My ideal start is AoE, 5 or 6 cost minion by 5 mana, penance, forbidden words and maybe renew. after that its just judging what you want to take for dmg. My goal against aggro is to try and head fake that I don't have AoE so they dump another minion or 2, judgement call on what they might be holding and how much dmg you're willing to take. Some stuff has just gotta go ASAP, like priestess, I've dumped 2 AoEs and penance into it more than once.
Try to stack your rez pool, can't always be perfect.
Mirror matches or similar are a different ball game, gotta attempt to force them to use their big cards, try to stay ahead on obelisk and hold back even more on your tempo swing cards. kinda just learn from playing it.
Hopefully that helps a lil, keep playing it and learn from miss plays.
For me, it's too fun, and good against Demon Hunter, I have played it for a couple of times in a row now and can't stop, it has all the right cards against almost everyone !! love it ....
How exactly does this counter Demon Hunter?
DH has such aggressive starting cards and when they top off with Imprisoned Antaen en at turn 7 Priestess of Fury , you're done. Plain simple.
Almost every card in this deck is good against him, just wait a couple of turns to get him to fill his board and then clear it, and in meantime just heal yourself, its super fun against demon hunter, at least for me...
And in the late game, you have soul mirror against his high minions and plenty more of that...
