We got 1 card that was ok, 3 that were questionable and the rest were just plain unplayable bad.
I disagree. I think priests got some pretty good cards.
Confuse - I think this is an ok card. It might see play in an aggro deck or something similar. Holy Champion - This is a great card. Lightwarden can be pretty scary, and this can get out of control. Flash Heal - I don't like this card. Light of the Naaru essentially heals you for 5 because of the Lightwarden they need to kill because it's very scary in priest. It could see play in some fatigue/grinder priest. Spawn of Shadows - This is a great card if you only care about your opponent's life total. Very good card in that kind of deck. Shadowfiend - This card is very good. It's basically giving you a free coin every time you draw a card with it in play. You can sometimes curve into a 5 drop on turn 4 or do something even crazier with the actual coin. I think this is great in any priest deck, but it can be heavily abused in an aggro priest deck. Confessor Paletress - This is a hard card to judge. I feel like you'd want to use your hero power the turn you play this, making it a 9 drop, or you have to base your deck around inspire. I think it's a good card in theory though. Power Word: Glory - Good against aggro. Not that great against control. It has the same effect as Blessing of Wisdom except against aggro it stops <4 attack minions. Why would they want to attack with a 3 attack minion if you get healed for 1? Convert - I like this card a lot. I think it's a great card with a lot of possibilities. There are a lot of good value cards people play, and being able to just gain of a copy of that is huge. There are also a lot of pretty crazy class cards you can copy. Wyrmrest Agent - Ok stats if the effect doesn't happen. Very, very good stats if it does. It might help make dragon priest a thing in constructed.
little off on these ratings. the legendary is unplayable... a lot of the legendaries are very bad in this expansion, this ones worse than sneed and much worse than the current 9 mana legendary priest play (ysera). there is no room for confessor paletress. wyrmrest agent is probably the best card priest got a 2/4 2 mana drop is the dream dude can kill everything.
flash heal and spawn of shadows will only see play in face priests and they could be enough to make it a viable aggro deck.
the rest of the priest cards will be people playing them for fun and messing around with bad decks.
Priest is dead. WE CAN'T COMPLETE A SINGLE GOOD DECK. Not even a single good card by its own in all expansion, they are all extremely situationals. In general there are not really GOOD cards in the entire expansion, but all priest's are useless and we already were the worst class.
Im glad u think so, i love playing my priest, but my deck is usually not build for mirror matches, so the less priest players i meet the better, thanks for spreading this "idea" around! <3
Well, this thread is a prime example of some player's lack of understanding of the game as a whole. It's pretty clear they don't build decks themselves and clearly just netdeck. Otherwise, they would have seen the potential some of the better cards and the potential of the class as a whole.

Damn, I was going to wait a bit longer before I Necro'd this thread. I said I was going to in my earlier post, but someone beat me to it!
initiative, someone has to take it.

I saw this post just now, and must have missed it last month.
Then I saw your initial response so when I checked who bumbed it, I was sure it was you!
Too bad someone beat you to it, but funny as heck that you still came back. Good call!
Priest was one of the first classes I liked, had not been able to play it for a long time since tgt came out. Dragon priest is pretty damn good.
I have come from to future to tell you... your wrong.
