Hey guys, Priest is my favourite class and right now there are two really nice Priest Decks outside (well okay actually 3-4 but lets forget the other ones for now :D) making the current meta a better place. Of course im talking about the Dragon and the Medivh Control Priest. So of course one day I had the great idea to look how u could combine them! They basically are quite similar to play so I thought that it could work out. After many many experiments and many changes I've got a deck that is really nice to play and is much fun to play. It kinda combines the strengths of both decks and I tried to work against the weaknesses. It has a 72% winrate for me right now and I am playing at rank 6 (also did some games in unraked but against normal meta decks as far as I could say).  Sooo yeah I hope that u guys have fun with the deck and if u like it pls let a like or a comment here, of course if u have any suggestions for nice substitutions I would be glad to hear it!

 So seems like u guys like the deck :D I'm very happy about the positive feedback and I promised u to update the deck and description, so over the days I'll complete this ;)

 

1. STATS because I know u need them :D ( these are the results I've achieved with the final version of the deck, so the one u see here of course if I will update the list from now on I'll keep the stats): Btw the deck brought me from rank 9 to 5.

(Win:loose) Total: 22:8 (about 73,8% winrate)

Shaman: 4:1    Warrior: 0:1    Warlock (lol): 2:0    Priest: 3:1    Mage: 5:2    Paladin 2:1    Hunter: 2:0     Druid: 2:2     Rogue: 2:0

 

2. GENERAL MULLIGAN:

Against Aggro: 

keep the 1-drops (Power Word: Shield only with Northshire Cleric or Radiant Elemental), Radiant Elemental, Shadow Word: PainShadow Visions (if u really fell like u need a Potion of Madness or Shadow Word: Pain), if u have enough of these or coin u can also keep the Curious Glimmerroot.

Against Control:

U always want Northshire Cleric, Radiant Elemental, (if u have one of these of course Power Word: Shield) and Netherspite Historian, (if u have it u can also keep Drakonid Operative). U can also keep Curious Glimmerroot, Shadow Visions, Shadow Word: Pain and against Mage Priest of the Feast.

3. How to play: (as far as I can say... but will work... trust me... xD)

-Rogue: there are two types of Rogue decks out there. Against Quest Rogue u wanna try to rush them down first. play your minions on curve and clear their board, don't let them finish their quest before turn 6, hopefully u'll have a strong board with one or maybe even two drakonides and then when they start to swarm their board u'll shut it down with Dragonfire Potion and the match is basically won. of course keep shadow visions for Dragonfire Potion. I think that because of the dragonfire u're in quite a good spot against them. Ah and don't forget Vanish!! Much more difficult will be Miracle Rogue, there u need the Shadow Visions for Shadow Word: Death (Arcane Giants and Good ol' Edwin). Here u also wanna try to rush him down and get a great board that he can't deal with or has to trade his whole hand in. Always keep something to kill Gadgetzann Auctioneer (even Dragonfire only him if there's no other way to deal with him.) Priest of the Feast can also be a key card here.

 

-Warlock: lol idk maybe concede and give them the win? If u don't feel that generous or remember the old days where Zoolock fucked ur decks then u should just wipe the floor with them. Just mulligan like in the aggro guide don't let them get a way too big board before ur turn six where Dragonfire Potion gives the rest to them. I'll keep this short cause u won't face them anyway...

 

-Mage: If u don't draw very bad u basically just win this one. Make sure if u face Medivh, Secret or Freeze (it won't be freeze) Mage, because the u know how to react to their Secrets, also keep in mind if the secret they have played costs only one cause then it's from glyph and can be pretty much anything so keep attention here! Priest of the Feast is the goat here always keep one for after getting Alexstraszaed! Also will be nice if u let them think that u're a normal Dragon Priest lurking around the meta cause they often run Gluttonous Ooze or Harrison Jones and then they'll just play it without any effect and u'll feel like a genius a few turns later when u'll release Atiesh. If u face Secret Mage u have to keep attention of their secrets. Always think about the worst thing to happen and be sure to not waste ur good spells and giving them copies of ur strong minions! Don't let them overrun u, play early minions and kill the fucking mana worm idk how often i've lost to this because i've thought that he is not a great danger... (with other decks, I've learned my lesson).
