UP TO DATE VERSION WITH MASSIVE DESCRIPTION http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/451378-hanterbats-insane-entomb-control-priest-2-0-87-wr
An insane control priest deck! This class became unbeatable after introducing entomb and excavated evil as well as having a new 1/2 which discovers a death deathrattle card (and as we all know battlecry cards are very strong). I took this deck to the Swiss tournament and i had 100% win rate with it. I also went 22 wins and 4 defeats with it on ranked. I am sure it will help all of you in this insane paladin / shaman populated meta as well as it will help in higher ranks since it destroys control decks with entomb. If i will get over 25 upvotes i will write a full guide on it as well as why i took these cards. For now enjoy this amazing priest experience and make ladder a better place by destroying aggro :)

(dont judge me on my english pls it isn't my mothertongue)
So the way you play this deck is like any other priest control control deck --> dont let you opponents do anything, destroy their board (in case of aggro), steal their strong cards with Entomb (in control matchup) --> make them tilt and start doing stupid mistakes / quit the game --> Win!
To be honest this deck has no week matchups, it does amazingly against aggro (literally u dont even need to pay attention to the game, just use removals and make them surrender xD), you have an advantage over control decks since thanks to LoE (i love you blizzard for the cards introduced in LoE) we have Entomb which basically helps you be ahead in fatigue matches and steals for you amazing cards that your opponent plays!

Is this deck good only on high ranks or is it also good for climbing?
Having great success with this deck. Struggled a bit ranking from 10 to 5 and then realized the meta is ripe for this kind of control deck. Was not disappointed, rushed to 5 with great efficiency.
Casual ranked player Seal of Approval :-)
Yeah Deathlord but it is your best play to control face as they ramp up so fast that other clears could be to late. It is also nice in slow draw decks like other control Freeze Mage or Warrior as you can force out cars that they would rather not drop. Also it can help if you have an opponent that has battlecries they are trying to work with (rogue and sometimes shaman). It can be nasty a bad drop choice against a handlock where you know they are stacking heavy hitters. It's all about the situation but with heals it can be a good meat shield and worth the negatives. That said I always have trouble with freeze mage with control priest decks The first Doomsayer is the key card to kill and by then hope you have drawn an Entomb other than that I feel like this and other control priest hold there own well and tend to not feel like the game is over on turn 4 because of the tempo makeup cards that priest has. Great deck fun to play thanks.
I really dont see how people are losing to aggro with this deck... I removed the pyromancer (for curator) and it still kicks a huge aggros ass. I´m having a typical bad time aganist jaraxxus though, any tips? :(
I removed the excavted for a second lightbomb to combo with the Deathlord (filling the enemy board for a cleaning), and works great!
Overall, an excellent deck, definitely not unbeatable, but very fun to play!
Can u give me some guide like mulligan with each class ???
Can Justicar Trueheart be replaced by Yesra or Dr. Boom?
It can not be replaced, its an unique card in the game.
Try replacing it with Holy Fire
it cannot be replaced..
I´d try dr boom first
Introduced a quite similar Entomb version last month but playing with 2 Curators and no Excavated Evil. How is the evil doing for you? Don`t like to give my opponent an extra AoE card so I never considered it
Entomb Priest
No one can counter Renolock till some cards will be nerf...
Subbed 1 Sludge Belcher for Harrison Jones ... feels OKish. Now you face lots of Paladins, Rogues from time to time and not to mention aggro shaman because of which I've made this change last season. Rank 4 atm and if meta shifts I will roll back this change.
Its a nice dick but Murloc pally counters it. Its almost certain defeat vs that deck.
Deathlord has fucked me over more times than it actually done anything good. wish I could replace it with something else..
Try Lightwell, just know the broken synergy with Auchenai Soulpriest. Lightwell's usually an early game card though so it works.
This deck is definitely hard. Sometimes you literally have to sit waiting for a turn 4 Auchenai Circle combo while your opponent beats you down to like 10 life. It happens. It's just optimal play dictates eventually you will run when they run out of things to play and you heal yourself for 4 life each turn.
Flash heal combos with auchenai soulpriest, its essentially a 5 dmg nuke for 1 mana, pretty nuts.
Can you please post a mulligan guide? I am having trouble figuring out how to start off with this deck.
