I'm not countering you whatsoever. I think a game like this needs places for people to vent and I'm saying this seriously.
I'm not crazy about the Barnes deck either and I generally like priest as one of my classes.
At least I can say that Highlander priest isn't that easy to play and there are a lot of variations so it's not the most boring thing Hearthstone ever did.... So I'm not thinking it really hurts the game overall.
I'm actually a bit scared of big priest getting better. I just faced one and he coined out barnes on turn 3 and pulled lich king. I had polymorph in hand. The guy, i shit you not, tried to res lich king after I killed barnes next turn. HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW POLYMORPH REMOVES THE CARD FROM THE POOL. Serious fucking misplay, and you know what? next turn he played the "summon a 5/5 version of a minion in your deck" and low and behold pulled fucking Y'Sharrj who pulled that damn Taunt with life steal. Then after I killed Y'shaarj he just resurrected it and it pulled the actual fucking Y'Shaarj so he got 2 10/10 on the board with a 4/9 taunt and life steal by turn 9...I don't know if this deck needs a nerf yet because it is very reliant on luck, but you should not win a game when you misplay that fucking bad...
Priest is not even considered broken, if u really suffer againts priest, try to counter him with 4 attack minions, he is not the class that cannot be countered
If you are complaining about Priest which has a barely T1 deck idk what your problem is when we have Druid running around with a deck full of nerf worthy cards. Priest only has like 2 maybe nerf worthy cards.
I think the hero power of the priest dk shuild only be able to target minions
The thing is that Priest basically have no reliable win con like other classes which is why Priest struggled for all of WoTG and Kharazan, and was mediocre in Un'Goro. What makes a top tier deck, that isnt aggro(Because all aggro decks share the same Win Con) is a reliable finish(Typically Burst) for example Anyfin Paladin was viable because of the burst and so is Freeze Mage and Exodia Mage, and Druid is OP right now because of how uninteractive its win con is(Which is why Skulking Geist was introduced).
Priest usually had a super weak win con of survive until you can drop your massive threat(C'Thun, N'Zoth, the Corruptor, Ysera, The Lich King ect and hope your opponent doesn't have the steam to overcome it or that you aren't already dead.
Thanks to Shadowreaper Anduin Priest has a Win Con now, and sure it is OP but because of the nature of Highlander decks and their inconsistency it is a fair tradeoff for the Shadowreaper Anduin + Raza the Chained combo to be Powerful, and without it they would still be out of the meta and control priest would be dead to Druid with zero difficulty.
Indeed, I glean the impression that Priest is well-chosen to be the capital authoritative deck in the ongoing meta in Stone of Hearth. I for one surmise the termination of the priest meta that is occurring in our crackerjack card game. A adduce from a well known Hearthstone fifth column chum of mine "Mr. PageTurner" says "Priest, is not broken". I can sooth an end to these quarrels of your.

First, let me commend you righteous effort in attempting to ridicule a bottom-of-the-barrel class such as Priest. Such attempts are quite noble, titled, and let's say, reputable. Unfortunately, the argument in which you have presented is rather shallow and pedantic. As a Priest main with over 500 wins in ranked, I would like to alter your point of you to the other magnificent classes such as Druid and Paladin. It seems as though these classes and most other classes are having a jolly-good time in standard play due to their exceptional synergy with the cards from the most recently developed expansion entitled: Guardians of the Frosty Chair-Piece. While Priest has also garnered some big-ticket toys for their decks, I find your complaints of the Priest's winning capability to be simply humdrum. I would recommended acquiring a higher skill set for the game and halt relying on such ghastly card conglomerations such as Fatigue Rouge and Quest Mage. Your delusions of adequacy are unambiguously ludicrous and absurd. All Priest decks in this META have their downfalls just like any other deck.
Priest does not need a nerf tbh. They have been an average Tier 3 class for the longest time, and a Tier 2 at best. One of the best days was Dragon Priest, which managed to climb to a high Tier 2. And maybe a low Tier 2 for N'Zoth Priest (later fell to Tier 3/4). That was about it.
It is pretty surprising to see Priest being able to get to Tier 1, and get to its state now (if you play Priest for a long long time). But then again, it really requires some skills to play Priest decks. I do agree that it can be rather annoying, but isn't Pirate Warriors annoying as well? It's just a different level of annoyance. And not forgetting that it gets completely rekt by aggro without proper cards for early game survival, specifically Aggro Druid, Token Druid, and Pirate Warrior. Be it Standard or Wild.
First, let me commend you, it must be hard stealing other peoples decks that they have crafted. This righteous effort in attempting to say that this (throws up) Priest is actually not a sinewy class is unbelievable. Such attempts are quite silly, tilting, and let's say, swingeing. Unfortunately, the argument in which you have presented is rather ankle-deep and donnish. I'm sure that you must think that a Priest main with over 500 wins 500 wins with copies of other hearthstone players decks in ranked must hold a bear sized amount of experience (sarcasm), but you missed something, the priest player brains are still in the fetus stage of development and cannot process actually creating a deck and playing your own cards.
Your delusions of adequacy are poppycock and absurd. All Priest decks in this META have their zero downfalls just like any other deck. The reason for this is priest can just fix their downfalls by stealing other cards from their opponent and make the match-up favor them, just like I did in this conversation.
Priest is not even considered broken, if u really suffer againts priest, try to counter him with 4 attack minions, he is not the class that cannot be countered
I know he can be countered, but he still very strong even if you 4 attack minions, priest just beats almost every class.
Yes priest is tier 3. But look also the table, against who priest has his unfavorable matches? Druid. So he will grow a lot in win rate after the druid nerf. It is strong priest very strong. I think he will be in tier 1, like now the razakus priest version with reno in wild is tier 1.
I'm looking, and all I see is after Druid nerfs Pirates and Murloc Paladin will be Tier 1. No priest issues.
Then you don't understand data. For pirate war was 50/50 and for Murloc paladin and easy match.(check better the tables) If someone will take advantages will be the priest that has a lower win rate against druid.
I'm looking at the matchup win rate chart. It clearly shows Murlocs and Pirates will be strongest if the Druid nerf is strong enough and the only real counter is Token Shaman. Priest will have many counters. I don't know where you're looking or what you're talking about.
I told you you are not able the read that table. Table show that for pirate and murcloc the match against druid is easy, so if you nerf druid pirate and murloc will not grow in win rate. By the way for priest the match is hard (see the table) so priest will grow in win rate. Priest will grow and maybe rogue and warlock. But for sure no pirate war and murloc. (see better the table)
I get what you're saying now, but it may be wrong. Pirates are 52% and Murloc Paladin is 54.7% vs Jade, but their win rates vs many other matchups are even better. So even if Druids don't exist, these decks may still go up in win rate, only to be balanced by their likely counter, Token Shaman (what I've been saying). Still think I can't read a table? I read the chart right the first time, but my prediction may be wrong, metas are hard to predict and the nerf may be too weak.
Yes now it is correct. If Blizzard would buff Token shaman pirates and murloc will lose win rate. By the way yes meta is hard to predict so who knows.
Oh god, I hope they didn't read this then decide to nerf the Jade Druid counters as well.
Anyway, too many nerf hammers. We'll never know what would have happened if they just hit Druid.
No nerfs to Priest. There will always be strong decks in the meta. Eventually, this RNG Priest will pass and other decks will take control of the metagame. Remember how everyone complained about Aggro Shaman and Face Warrior? A time will come when those decks fade to a tier 2 status, and this is no different. As my first golden hero, I'm glad that Priest finally have found their way into tier 1 with interesting archetypes that are representative of Hearthstone.

Just just my two cents.... Probably worth $0.01

I have much more important matters to attend too, I will be passing our conversation too my HR, Joe.

So the answer is No.

Need advice on how to deal with priest? Well here you go:
Maybe... nah nah nah nah
priest has been the garbage pale for too many seasons, and it ain't no jade druid running rampant
The card I hate right now in razakus priest is not even a priest card .
you guessed it: it's Geist .
That's the only way they can beat my jades and will remain that way even with druid nerfs .
No nerfs to Priest. There will always be strong decks in the meta. Eventually, this RNG Priest will pass and other decks will take control of the metagame.
