People are complaining about Big Priest since months - and rightfully so.
Yes, the winrate of this deck is not over the top. But the highroll potential with Barnes is just absurde und therefor unhealthy for the game and needs to be changed.
Blizzard should make a special stream lessons or youtube videos in which they explain the the only way hs should be played is with supa dupa 1000 IQ control/combo homebrewed decks and 30 minutes long match is a minimum time period that proves you're not braindead blah blah something etc.
Suddenly all threads are appearing on hearthpwn where users are tilted from playing against Priest. I mean what is this? Why this sudden outrage? Are they and I playing the same game.?
First of all Barnes is already in Wild. And from experience (I have been exclusively playing wild for last couple of seasons) I have hardly (read not at all) encountered a BarnesMind Blast priest. Yes I have encountered lots of & lots of Big Priest. Even once dominating highlander priest is rare on ladders.
I mean really? Do you really want to argue that Priest is OP? Whose best weapon is a lower 2nd Tier deck (in Standard Gallery Priest & in wild Big Priest) that Priest?
All these hates Priest gets are unsubstantiated. I have my doubts that those who are frustrated against Priest don't play this game at all.
People aren't "suddenly moaning & bickering against Priest", they've been doing that for a while now. At least I've seen people complain about Big Priest for a long time.
About the Standard Priest deck... the OTK one, with Malygos and Prophet Velen, i must say that dying on Turn 9 With Full HP, while you had control of the game all the time, while they just heal themselves and clear the board, it’s just super unfair, no deck should be able to OTK you with 40+ damage by turn 9...
OTK decks, usually requires a lot of draw and set up to OTK someone but this stupid Gallery priest card just need one card, Zerek's Cloning Gallery (Easy to get with Shadow Visions), and if it did not work the first time, just use Greater Diamond Spellstone and you will for sure ressurect the fk**** vellen and Malygos again...
and Mindblast to death your full Hp Opponent the next turn, yeah... i could understand the hate. At least, against big priest, you can do something.... Against OTK gallery priest, they just play a solo game (like the Olddddd Freeze Mage), it feels like playing against an uninteractive deck. Just wait for the combo as early as turn 9 and die. Priest has great ways to easily delay the game to Turn 9 (or 8, with coin) , even against aggro decks, thanks to cards like Psychic Scream, Spirit Lash, Mass Hysteria and others... they will almost 100% of the time reach turn 9 against you and otk you..., That’s not a fair deck in my opinion...
Every deck can be strong and weak. It depends of random draws. I faced a lot of times where people just had their combo or main card as a last in a deck - the same was for me...
So its extremely stupid to argue about any deck...

You don't have any idea what you're talking about...
Ppl hatte Priest because its human nature. No one like their stuff stolen then play against them. No one hate Thief Rogue because they generating random stuff from the other class, but everyone hate play against Thief Priest even if they win

Excuse me, but people complain about Big Priest most of the time, don't you know that?
It's a lower winrate then other classes. Think it's because it's flashier. Death by Priest stays in people's minds more than a Quartermaster, Fungalmancer, charge minion, mech hunter bs or Vicious Fledgling win.
"Suddenly"? Are we reading in the same forum?

Play controlwarrior and all priests will cry
'SudDenLy mOaniNg and BiCkEring about PrieSt'
Yeah, right.
Its just super fun to have board wiped 4 times and then you die. Gallery into 2 mind blasts or 48 atk Mogosh enforcer.
So happy Radiant Elemental, Lyra and Shadow Visions all gone in April.

"Why are people suddenly moaning & bickering about priests?"
Because the priest players are the real jerks that spam emotes 7/24. That is why.
I thought about it a minute
Ppl hate druid because of OTK, Ultimate Infestation and Spreading Plague
Ppl hate Hunter because of DK and Hyena
Ppl hate Mage because of DK
Ppl hate Paladin because of Odd
Ppl hate Priest because of Gallery, Wall
Ppl hate Rogue because of Odd
Ppl hate Shaman because its weak
Ppl hate Warlock because of cheating Voidlords and DK
Ppl hate Warrior because Odd is unfun to play against.
Ppl hate everything what could beat them up.

Not sure if hyped yet.
I don't understand this post. This is not an "all of a sudden" new thing. People have disliked all the classes.
