Goal of the deck :

Like the wild tempo dragonpriest the goal of this deck is to take control of the board in early game against other tempo/value decks put some presure if they are control making them use some removals with your stiky hight health minnions or survive with the taunts if your opponent is agro and run him out of steam.in the late game, 6th tern and after,you start playing a heavy dragonpriest with a LOT of card genration and powerful stat line alongside with lich king to finish them up,this deck (if it works as I have not tested it yet ) will be good against every posible deck and by telling good I mean that your bad mutch ups will be like 50% but that depends mainly of how comperable in power level is the priests 1drops and 2drops I have put in in comparison to the twilight welp and wyrmest agend.

Now let may axplain some (weird) things about the deck.

We have seen standard dragonpriest to run 2 dragonfire posion instead oh holynova and yes dragonfire potion is mutch better than holy nova in clearing the board so why I have in the decklist 1 and 1 insead of 2 dragonfire potion ? The reason is siply taht this deck is a tempodeck unlike the previus dragonpriest we saw at the last expansion witch was more controlish so you have to not run out of steam espesialy in early and midgame,so holy nova while you have some minnions on the board help you deal with the emeny minnions withought loasing your board witch is your win cituation.

why not run twilight drakes and run this bad bad prience instead ? First this legendery I think it's one of the most underated legenderies of the set and after all it feats naturaly to the deck,I didn't cut the drakes to put him in.I cut the drakes excacly because as I said above this deck is a tempo deck so....you would run a basic yety just because of the dragontag in a tempo deck,no.Second thins prience will act most of the times like a really good healbot against midrange and agro deck because they will often use 2 attacks to take him out and priest really like a taunt in the 4 man slot.

Why you play only 1 shadow word pain ? and one death ?,because this deck is minnions heavy ( yes there is this type of deck too lol ) so use these removals very carefuly !

also if someone does not want to spent 1600 dust for the prience,witch makes sence,a fine replaycement is priest of the feast

How do I muligan ?

Muligan is more important than most people think,I would say that is alomst half the game,so against an agresive deck in muligan you look for posion of madness tar creaper ( epssialy if you have coin coin it out in tern 2 ) the new priest 2drop and cleric,cristalite oracle is ok and pain too but not optimal.Against more controlish or midrange decks you look for the oracke the cleric with power world shield and as more control the mutch up is the more you ignore your opponents minnion and go face :D

I hope you like the deck and you will give a try when the expansion comes out !
