Hey Hearthpwn, Joubei here and now with a new N'Zoth Dragon Priest!
******UPDATE Aug 3, 2016*******
Hey everyone, I've experimented a lot, and now with an improved deck.
- Northshire Cleric + Twilight Guardian
- Northshire Cleric + Deathwing, Dragonlord
- Faerie Dragon + Shifting Shade
- Faerie Dragon + Chillmaw
- Acidic Swamp Ooze + Harrison Jones
********END UPDATE*********
I've experimented a whole lot and found this deck to be pretty amazing, giving answers to most if not all of the tough decks out there.
It fairs very well against OTK warrior or even freeze mages!
and it is sooo much fun to boot!
I hope you enjoy it!
If there will be some upvotes I'll write a full guide to it!
thanks everyone for your support!!!

Good deck.
I have tried replacing Harrison Jones with Cairne Bloodhof, though, which has a wider use.
I love me some Dragon Priest decks, and they are even better with N'Zoth, the Corruptor and Deathwing, Dragonlord!
I crafted Deathwing, Dragonlord when the Old Gods was new, and I have not used him that much :(
Anyway, I made a video featuring your deck and please forgive some of my sloppy plays during the game haha. Also, I hope you update the deck list with some of the new Dragon cards from Karazhan!
Hey there Shissan, thanks for the homage there,
The Holy Nova was originally placed for both board clears vs Zoo which are usually 1-2 HP minions, and for a quick heal, which Excavated Evil does't have, if i really need a 3 damage clear I could use an Azure Drake. Then again you don't give Holy Nova to your opponent which is a plus ;).
I usually play this deck more reserved, and keep Twilight Whelp as my activator, unless I have the Deathwing, Dragonlord on one of the first draws, then I can release the Twilight Whelp.
Lately I've been thinking to incorporate Power Word: Shield to make Twilight Whelp more powerful (and to card draw on the way), but if you don't Mulligan them both, then usually its not really worth it, most of our minions are pretty powerful as they are.
I'll update the deck with Karazhan there are both the Netherspite Historian and Book Wyrm that fit perfectly into this deck - but I'll need to experiment with Prince Malchezaar a bit more before I use it in the deck :)
Thanks again for the video :)
Thanks for the awesome feedback, and why you choose Holy Nova instead of Excavated Evil! I agree with you and your points listed here!
Also, I'm looking forward to future updates of the deck list post Karazhan as well. Yeah, those new Dragon cards, and Prince Malchezaar look like good additions indeed. We have not seen any of the Priest cards, and I'm hoping for better decks over all for the Hero!
Good times, and thanks for watching the video :)
i gave u my +1, but we must be clear, in this deck chillmaw is IRREPLACEABLE, i said that because i made the same conclusion experimenting with dragon n'zoth priest (for almost 2 months), exactly the same deck (which is amazing). My problem is, i don´t have it T.T
My apologizes if my english is not perfect, is not my native languaje
Hi Oromis_HS,
Definitely agree with you Chillmaw is a fantastic card, both a great trap for removal, and if they don't they pay the price, and if they decide to attack it, its a great board clear! and fantastic addition to N'Zoth, the Corruptor's army or the recently departed ;)
The only thing I'm considering is to add Ysera to the mix, her dropping after Deathwing, Dragonlord is perfect, and may give us a nice Emerald Drake :)
Thanks for the comment!
I run a similar deck; without Northshire, draw is very important, and Ysera does that well. Besides, Museum Curators can get Deathwing often enough that I don't worry.
Ysera is a fantastic cards in this deck, i am making the dust for her in this moment. Let us know when u be experimenting with Ysera.
i made a deck that i think can really work when we have all cards from Karazhan. I share the link with u and all the players who still belive in a strong priest class

My n'zoth dragon priest deck is at 80%.... at rank 13 lol
Usually the early taunts like Wyrmrest Agent and then the rest of the heavy hitters on t3 and t4 i.e. the Blackwing Technician and the Twilight Guardian or the Shifting Shade will make them rethink hitting face, and instead trying to clear them out.
on the off chance that they don't we can always heal ourselves for 2 mana and drop lower quality minions to fill the board.
on t5 we already regain the upper hand with Blackwing Corruptor and of course we'll keep Entomb and Shadow Word: Death for t6,
I always keep Entomb for Sylvanas Windrunner or Ragnaros the Firelord or Savannah Highmane and Shadow Word: Death for Grommash Hellscream or even C'Thun.
I will write a full detailed in-depth guide if there will be enough upvotes for this deck :)
Hi. Is Brann replacable?
Brann Bronzebeard is fantastic synergy with most of the other cards, from double draw of Museum Curator, to azure dragon, but also to all the dragon boosted cards like Blackwing Technician and Blackwing Corruptor.
with that said there is a great place here for Chillmaw or Twilight Guardian or even Deathwing, Dragonlord (both with the added comeback with N'Zoth, the Corruptor not to mention Ragnaros the Firelord.
with all these still Brann Bronzebeard is the best choice, and the others can replace other cards in the deck.
I will create a "non-budget" deck with these cards shortly, I'm experimenting with it at the moment.
also If we get over 100 upvotes I'll write a full in-depth guide for the deck :)
thanks for the comments guys :)
