It's like Blizzard can't design Priest cards at all. Weak bodies for more mana, Weak legendary spell, weak legendary, no solid archetype, lack of strong board clear, no strong effect, Slow play style (So either get overrun by aggro or get burned by combo), every card is costly. I hate to see my preferred class becoming a victim of Blizzard's experiments.
On paper everything looks strong, But when it comes to real applications it falls apart like a house of cards. First go play some Priest then come here to lecture me on that class.
Auchenai combo means 4 of your 30 cards get lock down. Which makes entire deck weak, Dust breaker is useless unless you are running Dragon package, Holy nova is shit in this meta & it has been for a while, Scream is useless against decks that can burn you in a single instance while you cant.
Im sorry that it is off topic, but wow... I have never seen anyone win 5000 games :D you are amazing! It must've been long and hard thou... anyways, i have no valuable info to add, just wanted to point that out

Two OTK Priest decks are currently tier 2. Priest is in a really good spot right now and has a lot of good cards this set. The class is just overshadowed because Druid and Warlock have so many broken cards that they’re overshadowing everyone. When we hopefully get a balance patch next month it’ll fix that.
and U still try to Tell US that Priester has no good boardclear???
Ur basically forced to play Dragon Priest because u won´t ever get a good duskbreaker clear without many Dragons. Psychic Scream just delays the board so it´s not that great. Holy Nova is terrible because 2 damage on Turn 5 doesn´t really clear anything. Auchenai Soulpriest is a 2 Card combo and takes 4 cards from the whole Deck.
Priest is the worst class with a 42% Winrate while the next best class has 48% Winrate. So tell me how Priest is any good right now?

Also you’re pretty fucking rude.
I am sick of getting that filler reply whenever strong board clear for Priest gets mentioned. It mostly comes from people with no experience playing Priest at all. At first, I used to tolerate these type replies but now days it gets on my nerve.

At first I used to tolerate these type replies but now that it has become quite apparent that these types of opinions are coming from someone with no experience regarding Priest, I kind of lose my patience with this sort of reply.
I played Dragon Priest back when the TGT cards were in. I played Machine Gun Priest. I played Big Priest and Quest Priest. I have been playing this game since 2014 and one of the classes I played a lot last year was Priest. So I’m pretty sure I know what the fuck I’m talking about.
Priest has a lot of good deck archetypes with Dragon, OTK’thun, and the new Topsy Priest. The class is fine as shown here on HSReplay: https://hsreplay.net/meta/ Oh look at that. Control Priest with 52% winrate. OTK’thun Priest with 46% winrate. The class is doing fine and again is just overshadowed by Druid and Warlock because surprise: They have a shitload of broken cards that still haven’t been addressed yet.
So if you didn’t want replies you never should have made this thread to begin with, because now you’re sounding like an entitled Priest main.
It's called taking turns, it's Blizzard's way, and priest has enjoyed a very generous turn. Pick a new class until they get another turn - like everyone else has to do when the Blizz takes a duke on their class.
I feel you OP, hsreplay shows, that only the control priest is even above 50% winrate and you can't just play that type all the time. Also all of the archetypes are so boring to play. After Razakus and big priest, which were great decks, the new stuff is just plain boring.
The legendary is laughable. Even when you can get the thing to get huge, it is still just some minions on the board. No other effect. 5/5 bodies aren't that big of a deal in the lategame. Also the boardclear-thing has already been answered. Beeing forced into the dragon synergy sucks, because it already shapes one fourth of your deck. Psycic Scream only delays the oponent.
Im sorry that it is off topic, but wow... I have never seen anyone win 5000 games :D you are amazing! It must've been long and hard thou... anyways, i have no valuable info to add, just wanted to point that out
I'm not trying to brag, but I have over 7000 wins. Not a big deal though because I've been playing since beta.
Priest has some good cards and some lame ones for sure, but they can still hold their own especially when I encounter the Barnes deck and Barnes pulls out a big minion and then gets ressurected over and over. Game over man.
I tried climbing to legend with control priest this season and made it to rank 1, but then dropped to 3 and went back 1. It sucks. Every aggro match is all about having your board clear/ healing by turn 4. Heaven forbid you don't draw any dragons in the top half of your deck. Need burn? Well Shadow Visions will give you zilch. Just so unreliable that I became fed up with it. Outside of Test Subject, and Topsy I feel like nothing else made the cut. Hunter does deathrattles better. Druid does combos better. Warlock does control better. It sucks but it's better than when Raza priest was tier 1. That was the worst meta in recent memory.
I actually think Zerek, Master Cloner is seriously underrated. I've been playing him in a Quest/Low cost spell deck and have been having a ton of fun and seeing positive win rate between rank 10-5. Spell is garbage tho IMO.
@logical_troll I will agree with you in the fact that priest is probably the worst class rn, but damn son, you posted this thread for the community’s opinions and then when they tell you there’s you just act like a tool and are rude to them. So first, grow the f**k up, and second, shut the f**k up.

You guys do realize that he literally says in his signature that he's a troll. You all are feeding the troll.

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.

Stop bitching about having a so-called "weak" expansion for your favorite class. it's a video game get over it.
OP just misses dumbass Big Priest and Highlander bullshit where any moron can autopilot it.
Nothing to see here.
I actually think Zerek, Master Cloner is seriously underrated. I've been playing him in a Quest/Low cost spell deck and have been having a ton of fun and seeing positive win rate between rank 10-5. Spell is garbage tho IMO.
I am actually glad Priest is in a slumb after the bullshit that Raza Priest was.
Scream is the worst clear ever made not clear at all the minions you put in opponent's deck you will have to face them again sooner or later
The only priest deck that I've been seeing (mecha'thun) is literally filled to the brim with removal.
My Lady in White Spiteful Priest is doing fine this meta, maybe t3 but a lot of fun
