So this is a different type of Priest deck.  It's basically built to beat Handlock.  I got so sick of losing every priest game to handlock I put every card I could think of into the deck.  I used to not run the Velen or 2 mind blasts (I had another silence, pyro, and BGH).  That older way works, but you can get stalled out and then lose to Jaraxxus when he shows up.

This deck actually works pretty well for both Control Warrior and Patron...it works for patron because you don't play a ton of minions...you are just clearing and clearing and clearing.

For handlock...the best starting hand you can have is a BGH or death, silence, pyro.  But no matter what you will usually draw in to some sort of removal.  Main weakness in the deck is the lack of draw.  Rarely do you have time to heal something to draw even one card.  could possibly swap one cleric for an Acolyte or something.

Either way, it's fun to mess around with, control a Handlock board...and then one shot him with velen-mindblast. (or steal his taunted giant two turns in a row with your 2 MCs)

Only other things I have tried are a Mind Control Tech (used to run one and one light bomb, but light bomb is just better usually).

Anyway, it's beaten every deck including pure face hunter and ebola paladin, but it really shouldn't since there's little taunts, and thoughtsteal is way too slow to usually beat hyper aggro.
