 i saw some good priest completly deny an enemy N'Zoth by stealing every single key deathrattle minion.

Priest decks have reached #1 Legend numerous times,
Dragon priest was a strong deck in the last world championship.

Team 5 should feel bad for making a game that so many enjoy and is arguably more popular than wow and warcraft itself.

Priests are great right where they are at -- Control & N'Zoth Priest can be insane and Dragon Priest also depending on your tempo and draws.  Tournament players always bring the best decks - keep in mind that tournament is NOT ladder.  Even people who swear by the Meta Snapshot can get losses from the lower tier decks when they play them in lower ranks. 

Are you NUTS OP?  Priest is THE single most annoying class to play against with all their stealing everything!  I HATE Priests!

First of all, noone that doesn't play in legend ranks should be having any opinion whatsoever about ladder.

Of course it is not played that much, it's not only slow to climb but a LOT of people i know thinks the class is boring as fuck(me included).

Priest (≠Dragon Priest) is only decent because of one card: Auchenai Soulpriest. If you don't draw well, you're fucked, if you draw well but don't get an Auchenai, you're fucked. The class relies so much on AS (actually: on AS' power) that a poor card like embrace the shadows sees some plays… 

Before Standard, the 3-mana spot was overcrowded. Now we barely have any card for this spot… There's Injured Blademaster but I don't feel like it's that good in the current metagame. I've seen Zetalot play it and every time he played it as a 4/3 that got traded by a 2 drop losing a huge tempo and often card advantage.

What game have you been playing? Priest is super good in this meta. Sure its not an easy win like shamman or paladin but its a class thats quiet balanced with the wog meta

Btw i face priest in like 4/10 games. So its quiet a popular class now.

Maybe its because you can't play priest?
