Priest have very good tempo minion you can play on turn 2 (elemental). In my opinion the way to go with tempo priest would be using this elemental with cheaper potion of madness / shadow word pain to keep your lightwarden/cleric alive.
The problem is that priests dont have burst potential other than mind blast or divine fire + inner spirit combo.
The problem with happy ghoul is as you said - as a tempo deck youll most likely be at full hp at the start, and later on it doesnt matter that you play it for free - which you dont beause either you use your hero power = 2 mana 3/3 minion or you got to have lifesteal minion on a board.
If you tihnk about it there aleardy was some kind of a tempo priest in a past - divine spirit + inner fire priest.
Thanks for the input, for the moment i removed Argus and one shadow word: death for 1 potion of madness and one bonemare
rank 13 on win streak. Not real mesure of performance, I am farming aggressive decks which don’t like the taunts I run in the deck. I will see how the deck performs once I get ran 10+.
will try to make the deck work to rank 5 and if I can’t I will change to something more optimized

I Yop everyone,
I am looking for some help improving a tempo/aggro priest.
The problems I find playing the deck.
not sure if
I really like the synergie between the lifesteal and happy ghoul but I often find myself undamaged when i start to combo

I think you need at least one Potion of Madness, maybe even 2x.
I also think you should consider some Elemental package, including Phoenix and Blazecaller (to try and mimic Rogue Tempo swings).
So what I take out of the remarks is remove the prince package and but back the 2 mana elemental and the buffer.
And the cheap spells. If I do that there is no reason to have happy ghoul, so no reason to try and get the lifesteal on corpsetaker
