I had to think of a way to get cloning gallery working in standard and I came up with the following deck. I'm not sure how good it is, but at r10 I'm getting win streaks here and there. If you don't have lyra, but you have malygos than that might also be a nice addition. I don't have malygos myself so can't test with him.
Anyway what do you think about the deck? If you find any suggestions on how to improve it please let me know!
The problem with Cloning gallery and new priest spells is that they are 1 mana too expensive. It's all because of that stupid Radiant Elemental and it doesn't even sticks on the board for more than one turn. I think Cloning gallery was a much better stated at 8 mana. Sure at 8 mana it does enable Prophet Velen, Malygos and Mind Blast OTK but that is two cards of which you can only run 1 copy of Zerek's Cloning Gallery and you have to make sure you don't draw Velen or Malygos before drawing your combo pieces.

If you still have Radiant elemental in your deck (or two) you don't need to have it stick. You just need mind blast in your hand. Having said that I just beat a druid (I think it was some sort of malygos druid, not sure though) with 27 hp and 14 armor in one turn. Had already played two cloning gallery's (it's in the deck description, but vs slower decks you want to grab another copy with Shadow Visions). Than I just kept putting on pressure so he had to use removal every single turn (coffin crasher into drake, into gate keeper, into a 7/7, play another coffin crasher, into obsidian statue, cloning gallery, you get the idea, turned into death knight).
Anyway in the end I had obsidian statue on board, I played Velen behind it, he played lich king, I attacked lich king with obsidian, I had three mind blasts in hand and with Hero power it was 38 damage + 7 (from Velen).
I tested cloning gallery and i made a deck that is realy cool to play. I am still testing how i can optimize. What i can say. Without quest it is like 20% higher loss rate. Sad but looks like that. Obsidian statue lost due to the high costs. It' s a deathrattle value deck.
very sticky board. Losses are overrunns with T5 or 6 Kills (before i can play wardn or scream) or sometimes fagitue after using scream. Also OTK can win but i only lost to it due to a mistake. At R5 this is currently about 50% but when i play concentrated i am over 60% ...
Yeah Wolfric, the deck I proposed works very differently the quest would alter the deck too much. You now have early damage and healing to keep agro from punishing you too much, although it might still happen. The idea is to be able to push for a lot of damage t7 till 13. After that you typically won or lost

Edit: I also don't have the quest, otherwise that might also work for the late game, but it will come online too late to be relevant I think

Although it was a bit of luck ;-)
