Hello friends, this is my first try on creating a deck here I really hope you like it and some of you find it useful :) 

So, I have seen many silence priest decks, and you might find this a typical one, but I tried cutting out legendaries and epics, and although I have included some we can find a way to reduce the dust cost by replacing some.

Game Style

Most Priests lately are pretty late game, but apparently this deck isnt. This deck will usually get you a win on turns 6-9 , aslong as you have thrown some minions on the board have a couple of spells in your hand. 

Minion Strategy

I am sure most of you know that the Northshire Cleric should be usued wisely and carefully since it's the basic card in the deck that will help you full your hand. So be careful and don't throw it on turn one against enemies that can easily get it after you play it (druid, mage etc.) 

Your main minions are Ancient Watcher[card], [card]Humongous Razorleaf and a card receiving some hate Bittertide Hydra . Have them silenced first and then buff them.If you are lacking silencing cards you can always use your Sunfury Protector to keep them as a shield against aggressive decks, and later on silence them and buff them.

Faceless Shambler and/or Faceless Manipulator are important against single target clearance, a 16/16 minion is aggressive and quite a threat, but what about two? 

Replacements

As you can notice I have only added one legendary to this deck and that is Barnes . I think it's pretty useful since with a silence on the 1/1 minion it summons you can have it as a full value, that's pretty good in my opinion and some times it might save you. 

Bittertide Hydra is a card receiving hate but in this deck I think it works pretty good, you can though replace it with an Injured Blademaster 

Faceless Shambler and/or Faceless Manipulator are important but a 16/16 minion is still a threat and you can play without these cards, cross your fingers and you might get it :)

Shadow Visions is pretty nice in this deck and can really help you in difficult situation, the deck can work with one of them and it feels better with two. 

Embrace the Shadow with Circle of Healing is a nice board clearer but since it's epic and you might find it pricey, you can always replace it with a second Auchenai Soulpriest

Onyx Bishop is a nice replacement for Barnes if you don't own the adventure.

Final Notes

So we have some counters in the deck against some pretty popular decks, Taunt Warrior and Quest Rogue. Play Silence on their Igneous Elemental , I have really seen people conceding after I've played this. Against taunt warrior a Mass Dispel and Silence are very helpful before getting lethal .

I really do hope I helped you somehow, thank you very much TheWhiteDelight for the idea on this and for your beautiful guide here .

Feel free to ask as many questions, this is my first guide I hope I did good, I will accept in comments (help me get better!) 

Once again thank you for your time and enjoy! :)

 


 

[Update]: 2nd of May 

I replaced the Embrace the Shadow with Auchenai Soulpriest  and added a note about Barnes replacement.
