Hi guys, Zephyrus1291 here, just a casual D5-D1 / Legend player. I would like to share a newly favorite deck of mine that has shown an acceptable winrate of 56% (40-31) as well as pretty fun to play with.

Let's start with the winning conditions of this deck. The first one would be the quite obvious  Sethekk Veilweaver's value generation as a future win condition. This is given by its randomness and a chance to correctly obtain the needed answer for the board. Hence, the name Miracle for this deck.

The second winning condition is to outpower your opponent, using stat buffs (Power Word: Feast & Apotheosis) and board presence (Grave Rune, Embalming Ritual, and Psyche Split), particularly when those buffs are accumulated into Devout Pupil. Not gonna lie, facing a Grave Rune + Embalming Ritual + Psyche Split Devout Pupil is like demolishing a great wall of China on top of mount Everest. I've seen most opponents easily conceded when faced with such obstacle.

There is also a third winning condition, where you could utilize Psyche Split on your opponent's minion, particularly if they've been buffed / have Rush or Charge / Taunt, and then use Mass Dispel or Silence on your opponent's minion, if they're obtained from your value generating cards. Some of my experiences:

1. Psyche Split on Rattlegore followed by Silence and Shadow Word:Death
2. Psyche Split on Speaker Gidra followed by Power Word: Feast to fully recover at the end of turn
3. Psyche Split on Claw Machine followed by double Embalming Ritual to clear the board and get draw three +3/+3 minions, and many more possibilities along the way

There could also be many swing turns happening using the duet of Sethekk Veilweaver and Nazmani Bloodweaver. By also utilizing Palm Reading, the discount + value generation fiesta goes through the roof (always mind your hand size though).

Another key card in this deck is High Abbess Alura where you could play her on turn 4 using The Coin or your discounted 1-cost spells. Expect her to cast buff spells to increase the pressure. When that happens, this will force your opponent to remove her, only to be met with a future resurrection using Raise Dead or Psychopomp.

The hardest matchups have been evolve shaman and aggro DH while Druid has been the easiest matchups. This is probably due to the deck is unable to catch up with immediate swing turn from evolve shaman and the hyper aggressive pressure from aggro DH.

Several tips and facts of this deck:

1. Mulligan for any minion except Devout Pupil, Psychopomp and High Abbess Alura when not having a coin.
2. Also mulligan for Insight to ensure drawing a minion from your deck. Ideally, it is played in its corrupt form.
3. Getting a Psyche Split upon activating High Abbess Alura's spellburst will give you the 4/8 copy with the inactivated spellburst, making a significant swing turn when this happens.
4. It is okay to play Sethekk Veilweaver on turn 2 and Nazmani Bloodweaver on turn 3 if you have Raise Dead or Psychopomp in your hand to bait your opponent for using removals.
5. Grave Rune is most ideal to be used for Devout Pupil.

That's all for the guide. Hope you guys enjoy the deck and please leave a comment for any feedback. Thanks for reading!
