Hello,
VigormortisHS here, got legend with 70%wr with this fun as fuck deck I've built.
The deck idea is to use Voidtouched Attendant in a midrange archetype. This card is indeed op with Astalor Bloodsworn and Shadow Word: Undeath!
(it is also ok with Xyrella, the Devout pewpewing but usually you find other wincons before that)
Ever tried to summon 3+ Gnome Muncher in the same turn against a dk? Well...
This is a hybrid tempo/thief/deathrattle priest. Not the easiest deck to play but it has really insane plays and it's 10/10 fun!
Mysterious Visitor is one of the best cards in the deck. If drawn with Identity Theft, keep them both. Tempo cheat is so nice!
Shadowcloth Needle is your best anti aggro card. We run a surprisingly low amount of shadow spells but holy shit this card is still always good.
Remember you can abuse High Cultist Basaleph resurrecting Undead minions you stole from the opponents too :D
Legend proof:
.
December season legend climb stats
Substitutions in test:
- 2x Psychic Conjurer
+ The Harvester of Envy
+ Najak Hexxen
Thank you for the support guys!
IGN: Vigormortis#2439, lf partner to do YT deckbuilding and commentary (i get bored doing that alone, but I get legend every month with this memeish stuff)
Dude, this deck is insane!
Super versatile and fun to play. Thanks for this brilliant deckbuilding!
Reached legend with this deck. thanks deck creator! the only wombo play you should be going for is 2 voidtouched and astalor, the best turn 1 is going second, playing coin+0 cost card+2 mana 3/2 steal a card
edit: my diamond->legend win was stealing a 8 cost astalor, reducing it and blasting a cariel paladin down
edit 2: removed balaseph for a 4 mana lifesteal 4 damage card during my run
Just killed a frost dk with pyroblast after stealing and copying 4 0 mana frost strikes. 10/10
Turn 3 identity
turn 4 visitor + 4 drop
Turn 5 7 drop
Honestly i havent been playing this game for 4 years and I always like priests decks, but this one is amazing. So many combination how to win.
My favourite is Voidtouched Attendant with Astalor Bloodsworn , 32dmg just like that. Trigger deathrattle with Xyrella, the Devout is also very powerfull. Hard thing is to properly set start of the game, if you control the board, than it is easy to complete the combo. Thank you for this deck :)
Do you think the shadow form Darkbishop Benedictus is needed for this deck ? I want to craft the deck but want to add the Behemoth instead of Benedictus, cause I have him. Let me know your opinion please, I'm sure you know better than me. :)
nah, it helps in a couple turns and aggro games but i dont think it's needed. Feel free too try it substituting it and maybe later try it to its full potential ;)
Really enjoying this deck...it is a ton of fun to play with!!!
Haunting Nightmare might be a nice addition to this as it synergies as undead and provides great tempo
Sure, you can take out conjurer for it. I personally enjoy more burgling scams, and our turn 3 seems already pretty coggled
This is definitely a hard deck. But very good, can run several different tempo archetypes and only really loses to aggro druid. Best priest deck of the expansion so far !
I always keep weapon and skeleton against druid because of that! I don't feel it's that bad of a matchup, but I'm so happy to hear you are having fun with it!
Priest is in a bad spot i think, forced myself to play around 200 games this season and only hit low gold, DR rogue, Armour druid and mage just bully it
yeah priest is prob the weakest class, btw last week Norwis got rank 1 legend in 2 servers with Bless Priest
I'm having quite a good success with it, especially vs mage, and I find it very fun. Thief rogue now feels so mainstream :D
Slower priest decks seem like doomed at the moment, I agree
Check out nohands egg priest list he’s 60% at high legend with it
This deck is laughable at diamond 5. You might win 1 out of 10 games lmaoooo
sure bruh
Tbh, the deck seems fun but nothing more than that. 3-7 winrate at +-5000 Legend rank.
The deck wants to much and isnt really steady. For instance: Animate Dead can be great when you get Mind Eater back but will also give you Psychic Conjurer back if that was your turn 1 play. Undying Allies also has great potential with eater Volatile Skeleton, Mind Eater and Shadowed Spirit but is often a dead card in your hand without the good draws.
That is my second point: With stuff that is created by steals and Grave Digging the deck somethimes has good draw or even too much, but I had at least half of the games the feeling that I kept on waiting for the good draw that wasnt comming.
The deck has potential but I feel like it has to go more towards either Undead Priest with for instance a lot of Shadowed Spirit triggers OR has to go towards Thief Priest
Thank you for the feedback mate!
I think this plays best as a climbing deck than in dumpster legend. I had quite a less success there too, but mostly due to bad matchups. This deck crushes a lot of decks (blood DKs especially) in the funnier way possible though!
I think Undying Allies is nice and it's very often a mulligan keep. I don't tryhard to maximize its value tho, its just staple 0 mana value in a very resourceful deck.
I almost never play Psychic Conjurer t1. Regarding bad draws, I had two unplayable games in 50. Seems fair to me.
I agree on the fact that this is not the best competitive deck, but I think Voidtouched Attendant and Astalor Bloodsworn could be a very valid inclusion in faster and more solid versions. I would also say Xyrella is 9/10 just overkill, I'm not even sure the shadow hp drawback makes this anywhere competitive at all.
This deck just takes the funnier combos in priest to me and combines them together, winning a lot with unexpected bullshit. It's one of the best experiences I've ever had in Hearthstone :)
I agree I dont play competitevly but I'm having fun with this deck Subbed Psychic Conjurer for The Harvester of Envy and Najak Hexxen. I like how it is very flexible. You can simply outlive or burst control decks or combo decks by trying to steal their cards or burn them down. You have plenty aoe for aggro decks and you can play as an aggro deck as well with certain hands.
