Some of these cards are pretty self explanatory and even new players will guess what they can be used for such as Northshire Cleric, Velen's Chosen etc.
I'll get in on some cards and their advantages in this specific deck starting with...
Excavated Evil! Some new players might think:"WOW! Why would I give a board clear to my opponent and pay 5 mana for it?! That's just crazy!"
NOPE!
As Kripp himself explained, imagine yourself playing against aggro decks such as Shaman, Paladin or Hunter, these decks don't really use board clears and a board clear that does damage even to your OWN minions is just absurd to have. Excavated Evil also denies them in that matter a card draw, its almost like they didn't even draw on their turn if they get Excavated Evil, so I believe this card is absolutely overpowered when it comes to destroying aggro decks!
Deathlord! Absolutely destroys aggro decks, even if some new players are skeptical on why would you give opponent a free minion, just from my experience 8 times out of 10, you will give them only something like a Leper Gnome. Since you're playing a CONTROL deck, Deathlord is absolutely necessary.
Justicar Trueheart! Really? You don't think healing for 4 hp is reasonable? I've played 21 games without Justicar Trueheart, just because I didn't have crafted it at the time. My win percentage was at 71% or 15 wins and 6 losses. This deck is playable without it, understand that, but this card really makes your life much easier. After playing 12 games with Justicar Trueheart my win percentage rose to 83% or 10 wins and 2 losses. This card is really OP when it comes to control, and I think you should definitely craft it.
MULLIGAN
From BEST to WORST
Zombie Chow, Deathlord, Northshire Cleric.
Are absolute best!
Shadow Madness, Shrinkmeister, Shadow Word: Pain
Are absolute average!
Power Word: Shield and Velen's Chosen
Are absolute optimal-in-some-situations-but-usually-bad!
Since on demand I played 10 games on Ranks 15-11 (which is average range most people play on) just to show you how well I could match up against the meta.
As you can tell, it goes pretty good with 9 out of 10 games won.
Average time played from 10 games is 10.1 minutes.
Average turns you'll be playing is 16.6 turns.
10 games is not a enough to make a right call on stats, but we can see here that 75-90% win percentage with this deck is absolutely possible. I myself have NEVER been Legend rank, so someone who has might have even better plays with this deck.
Nah, man... you understood it wrong. I played 10 games after I got a message telling that this needed proofs, so I did a quick compilation I made :b, 83% is a real number, but I don't have the proofs of it anymore :c
Wouldn't some of those extra removals be prime candidates for card to sit on so that Elise can turn them into something better. By having so much removal, you help ensure you get the point where Elsie can work her magic and not be dead long before you even see the map.
as the guy above said, Elise turns the fatigue game removals into minions, but the point is this deck revolves around removing minions and having the board clear throughout the game, later stages you will very likely go to fatigue where this deck completely destroys.
Don't be mad about me posting my win rate, it's not for everyone :b
Hey, i don't have any light bomb (and don't want to craft one, because of new "standard" you know), so is there any replacement, is the deck playable without ?
I've played this deck with and without, lightbomb is a killer card, but if you truly don't want to craft it. Just get some other removals like, Auchenai Soulpriest + Circle of healing combo. This deck revolves around removing minions so it's not hard to guess :b
Golden Monkey :forsenGASM: !!!
Intense games Khristoph :D
Yeah seriously XD ! Still fun though :p !
For goodness sakes stop giving him trouble about not being the first to ever create a control priest lol. There are only a finite amount or cards to choose from and only few that actually do anything for control priest. If we expected completely original decks we wouldn't have this site at all because there would only be 6 decks. Sometimes changing a card or two makes a difference. I've got a 65% win rate with it. It's a slower deck so it's not the best for hitting legend unless you have a lot of time to play but I could see it being legendary in the right hands. Looking forward to the guide. While guides have been written for these decks everyones perspectives are different. Happy laddering all :)
which ranks did you advance with this deck?
71% I got last season at ranks 8-5 and 83% at rank 12ish this season. I'll start using deck tracker with this version of the deck this season to get more insight :)
Sorry dude, but this is not *NEW*
decks this style have existed earlier that's true.
I used Mind Control while I didn't have one, or just get another copy of Holy Nova, since this deck is really low on healing, I suggest your next legendary craft is Justicar Trueheart.
Why would you post a copy of the recently popular "godlike excavated evil" deck, just to change one card? Nice imagination.
Yes, once again this style decks have existed earlier :D
Just a copy of this deck, only changed one card... http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/412482-legend-godlike-excavated-evil-elise-priest
I can't see the point you're making, decks this style have existed for long time.
