Stats:
Hey Hearthpwn, I'm infernO 24 years old italian player for Team Prophecy. I made this decklist with my friend RickM 23 years old player for team DMTK Brawlers.
We wanted to build a meta broker list to climb ladder with an Elemental based Priest with Divine Spirit + Inner Fire combos.
We both achieved legend from rank 4 and 5. This deck is not that easy and direct to play, so we made this guide to explain how to use it perfectly.
Table of contents:
-Gameplay;
-Mulligan;
-Questions;
-Replacements.
Gameplay:
First of all this is kind of Midrange Priest that generates a good board using the elemental sinergy. Is not a deck to play on curve, because you have to optimize the Elementals chain in order to activate their effects. Thanks to Radiant Elemental, Shadow Visions and Lyra the Sunshard it's easy to find out pieces for the combo.
Mulligan:
Generally you have to mulligan for the early game, which is Northshire Cleric, Fire Fly, Radiant Elemental and if you already have one of these you can also keep Power Word: Shield and with the coin Kabal Talonpriest.
Against aggro decks is recommended to hard mulligan for Tar Creeper also (with Fire Fly and the coin you can also keep the Tol'vir Stoneshaper).
Questions:
-Isn't Lightspawn a good value card with Divine Spirit and the Elemental sinergies?
I think Lightspawn is way too slow card and easily tradable because it has always its attack equal to the health and could be weakened by removals and easily traded by the opponent's board.
-Is there any sense to play this deck without Lyra the Sunshard?
Actually Lyra is a very good card, more than we thought at the start, because priest has such nice spells which cost very low that can help you cycle well with Radiant Elementals, she can easily help you to comeback lost games with nice picks (like Gadgetzan Auctioneer). She's also an elemental!
-Why no Ozruk? With that many elementals in the deck, Ozruk plus Inner Fire would just win?
Ozruk costs is way to high, and many times you won't have his body on the board for more than 1 turn since it can easily be removed from all the single target removals (like Hex, Execute, and so on).
-How does this deck perform against taunt warrior?
Against taunt warriors you need to be fast pushing face damage, using Divine Spirit and Inner Fire in the early game, in way to find out lethal using Lyra in the midgame.
Also you can beat taunt warriors using Potion of Madness on their 2-6 or 2-7 taunts to buff them with your spells and otk them!
Deck Replacement:
If you face many pirate warriors and generally aggro decks:
-1 Blazecaller
-1 Shadow Word: Death
+1 Tortollan Shellraiser
+1 Potion of Madness

I have not played all too many games with this deck yet but I have to say this deck is really fun to play.
The synergies are well selected and not hard to follow up.
Just now I had a game where I summoned Servant of Kalimos, which I pulled Ozruk with.
After Kalimos, I summoned two times Fire Fly and an Flame Elemental, which brought Ozruk to 20 health next turn.
The opponent did not have the answer so it was game over, as I had Inner Fire in hand.
Very fun.
I would say probably not, because you're not really casting a ton of spells early on to develop a giant. You really get to spam later in the game when lyra comes out, and by that time you won't need it, you'll be buffing your other minions and using inner fire anyway.
I reached legend for the 1st time with this deck :)
Everytime I've played Servant of Kalimos I've pulled Lyra
I've been loving this deck and have had pretty steady success from ranks 25-12 and yet i'm struggling for optimization. Whether or not this original list worked in the early meta, i'm finding it necessary to tech in a dirty rat with the number of Quest rogues and mages i'm encountering around my current rank.
So far i have tried -1 tortollan shellraiser +1 dirty rat
and very recently -1 sw:pain +1 elise the Trailblazer (not enough games to indicate whether 1 pain is enough but the extra cards have helped immensely in drawn out games versus taunt warriors, handlocks, quest priests and the elemental shaman.
Ideally, i'd like to tech in some sort of board clear a la Dragonfire potion but this deck can't really sacrifice many cards imho.
Have any of ya'll been experimenting with tech cards of this nature in this deck?
Yeah this is what I have been running, I don't know what to do with Fire Plume it has worked for me in a lot of games.
I don't have Lyra yet so obbiously that will go in this week.
I have a fun game with this deck. Thank you.
On the second turn I attacked with a 28/28 Radiant Elemental
:)
will this deck still work next season? should i craft ?
Only Potion of Madness and Kabal Talonpriest will rotate out, so there will hardly change anything to the deck.
We have a whole year for next season. I would say go for it.
i mean if its going to be good in the meta tho. im a "low budget player" so idk if investing dust in this will be worth it. ;/

No matter how grim things are looking, never concede with this deck.
Reasons like this are why I love this deck.
I really like the deck but I'm getting destroyed by hunters somehow. I just cannot deal at all with early game aggro. Especially when I don't draw clerics or potions of madness. Usually it's already too late by turn 3 even if I have a tar creeper.
Nothing sticks so I can't even buff it with either PW:S/divine spirit or the Talonpriest.
Are people running into the same problems or am I just unlucky?
TBH when I get "out of the aggro woods" I'm usually ok and the deck starts to shine. Aggro decks seem to be heavily favored against this deck though.
Thinking about teching in a pyromancer.

No, Lyra is sadly irreplaceable as she just provides too much value when used with radiant elementals. She basically allows you to cast an infinite number of spells this way and she is a win condition against certain matchups.
First off, thanks for the amazing Deck! Second, I just had the most epic round of hearthstone I've ever played. Sorry for the quality, I am not a streamer but I felt this awesome round was worth sharing.
5 Quest Rogues in a row, who needs Shadow Word: Pain? Dragonfire Potion!
I just opened Lyra in a pack yesterday, I kinda wanna try this deck but I'm scared to craft all the epics idk
Super super fun deck, have had a couple of turn 4 wins with 20/20 clerics or radiant elemtals. The things you can do with this deck is hilarious.
