Hey guys, I've been playing hearthstone for about a month now. I'm fairly decent at play but when it comes to deck building I'm some what hopless trying to add everything but the kitchen sink. This deck has done okay but I know it needs tweaking. I really wanted to play a deck focused around spells and a shadow priest deck seems fun. I've played the quick draw pally and lock swarm decks and got them up to one star masters and I dont think this deck can hold water up to that rank. Any constructive feed back would be much appreciated, my thoughts on it were trying to get taunt for the beginning to end game to pull out prophet velen and unleash my spells and use the holy fires and holy novas to heal my self once in shadow form, I've normally been staying out of shadow form till about turn 7 or 8. Would really love some feed back. Thanks!
thanks for posting the list I couldn't figure it out at first, yeah I was thinking of adding more with some Defender of Argus for taunt because this deck doesn't have enough clearing via spells from what I could muster. So I opted out of spell power minions for taunt. I might just need to adjust my play though. I'm thinking of adding more spell power the next time I play and see how it works out. Thanks for the suggestions.
Always Shieldmasta, there should never be a deck without them.
I actually play several decks without him, going so far I don't play any taunts at all in my mage deck. Masta isn't a great card, just a good card. So no reason to always have him ;)

The problem I have with decks that include this many single cards (one of its kind) is that you can't really rely on your draws, increase the randomness of your deck and find it difficult to strategize. In addition to that, although these spells are awesome, you might get in trouble in early game due to the lack of minions.
Hey every one thanks for the feed back its been really helpful bellow is my updated deck not really a shadow priest deck but it includes some pretty good synergies and so far I've gotten it up to one star diamond with out much issue. Let me know what you think. I'm going to add my basic strat in the deck description some time in the next day but just wanted to share. Thanks!
Hey Hawk, haha thanks man WP! Noted JA0, I'm really liking my set up though I've worked this all the way up to 3 star masters I'm going to keep it how it is until I get bored.

If this is a spellpower priest deck then you might want to change a few minions to spellpower ones.
Kobolt, Dalaran Mage, Ogre or Ancient mage.
It would make the smites mind blast and holy nova much more powerful.
Though the two you have listed may be enough?
Not sure if hyped yet.

Ironfur Grizzly is bad, it loses stast just for being a beast, swap it for Seijin Shieldmasta maybe..
Thanks, good thought I'll def do that. Shieldmasta slipped my mind
