I am having a lot more success with this version and I was able to beat an aggro Rogue with it.
Side note: Keymaster Alabaster and Mindrender Illucia are not needed.
I won't be making another guide for this deck because it is pretty straight forward and I don't know if it is really worthy of one but I was on a winstreak with this.
This deck is the best form of Gala Priest when going against Ramp Druid and Libram Paladin, which are the two most popular decks at the moment. It does well against them. I'm not sure if I'm a huge fan of the double devoted maniac. I think SW: death and Illucia would be better replacements, as I typically use Gala before fully invoked anyways. Illucia seems not great and will be a dead card often, but it is also turns an auto loss against combo decks (see mage) into an auto win if you have it in hand. Just play it around 8-10 and dump combo pieces (dont give them gala) and enjoy the win. I used it against Gala lock near the end and dumped all their removal, or against ramp druid and burned all their innervates and other 0 cost spells at 7.
i noticed you switched the Penance back to Devoted Maniac, did the former not help with aggro as much as you'd hoped?
Yeah you pretty much lose or win the same matchups with or without it. But anyone can change their deck to however they need to.
this deck is quite nice. im so far 9-6 with her on diamond 2. somehow it feels like it needs more tweaking since i have many dead turns with overflowing hand but its generally working quite well. good job!
Thank you so much! Been playing on and off since beta and I finally hit legend for the first time. Didn’t have Kel so i replaced him with Plague of Death. Hit an 11 game win streak from Rank 4 as soon as I switched to this deck! Amazing!!
Yeah it's a good matchup against big druid
deck is nice, but why chronobreaker?
I went from bronze to Silver rank 2....then kept losing hard to big paladins and aggro decks (when I got to silver rank2)
Yeah Galakrond Priest isn't doing that great anymore but still kinda fun. I suggest play Libram Paladin or Aggro Rogue if you aren't already.
I just stole a Druid's Kel'thas turn with murozond and was playing 10/10 devoted maniacs. This is a wonderful deck, Thank you!!!
a terrible deck, it can't do anything against aggro, it's a 100% loss
I have just played my first three games with this deck. All against Druid somehow. But that match is definitely favoured for Priest.
All the big minions they can spit out - which is a ridiculous amount of mana cheated minions - are not enough to beat priest if you don't draw extremely poor.
Discovering Shadow Word: Ruin with Renewagainst druid is just awesome.
Wave of Apathy+ Cabal Acolyte is basically a removal + heavy minion on your board. It's nuts against those high health + attack minions from Druid.
Then we still have Galakrond, the Unspeakable and soul mirrior as some extra removals.
As long as your are able to generate cards early game, you should be fine against Druid.
Despite what you said, I will try to find a place for Mindrender Illucia , as I received a golden version of it and just want to play it haha.
do you receive a golden hand and deck from your opponent with golden Mindrender Illucia?
Nope
Can´t win vs aggro rogue, struggles against ramp Druid and its heavy dependent of draw.
The idea is fun but its too slow.
You either go with some life steal aggro minions to at least go for late game or you go for ress.
At least i didn't manage to do great still stuck on plat 5 but i suck at the game my record with it was 6-14
Great deck, went from Plat 3 to Legend really quick
amazing deck 10-2 83%
the only loss i had is against aggro
Thoughts about using Lazul's Scheme in this deck?
No room for it but you randomly generate it sometimes but you could do it for fun I wouldn't do it in ranked.
Hey,
I played bunch of gala priest before expac so I wanted to try the new version as well. Same as you I thought that Wave of Apathy is going to be very good in priest since the cabal cards. In the vid bellow I had some nice games using the cabal to actually win the game. I think gala priest overall is in pretty decent spot. Also I tried running Mindrender Illucia and it actually sucks :D
Hope you can enjoy the video
