As someone that also plays Wild (That is literally infested by this Deck) I personally find it to be the most frustrating Deck out there to play and especially lose against (I'd rather lose to turn 4 Barnes into stuff or to Pirates than this).... Everytime I lose to this Deck I get pissed so much that I need to take a break from playing.... Decks like this one are one reasons why I love OTK and Combo Decks,.... All you want to do is remove everything I play,play a minion of yours once in a blue moon and heal for 60 HP if I try to burn you down? Fine then I'll just cycle through my whole Deck and kill you in one turn.... If you're playing Aggro it's just a coinflip of whether or not they draw their single copy of removal/AOE.... If you're playing Midrange you're most likely screwed unless you can finish it very very fast... And if you're playing Control is just a nightmare unless your Deck is stuffed with 4 ATK minions or if you're running a Decklist so greedy that it gets rekt by Aggro every single time.... I don't play Aggro and it's been a while since I played a Midrange Deck so I can speak only for Control MUs and those feel miserable.... You can't try to push face damage cause of POTF+Spells and GHP and maybe even Kazakus Potion.... You can't play big stuff cause the DK would get rid of all of them or they'd use Kazakus Potion.... As soon as they have DK+Raza you're on a clock so if your Deck's win condition is slow you're probably screwed.... I really really hope this Deck will never become Tier 1 cause I really find it horribly unfun to play against.... Games take 20 minutes and it feels like a loss from the start...
I guess the reason why I ranted was because I legit crafted the Highlander deck all the way back to the MSOG meta. After the Pirates have taken over, I still believed that one day it will be strong.
Now with all the cards (except for Velven) I have all the cards to build this new deck similar to "Budget Warrior", and with it on the top meta, I feel so rewarded
The devs themselves have said in interviews that Priest is hard to design for because it's a reactive class and it feels un-fun to play against. Personally I think it's a mistake to ever let Priest get to too high of a power level, and even though it's my 2nd most played class, I don't think Priest being strong is good for the game.
I believe that all of the people that are bitching about Priest right now are extremely salty Pirate Warrior mains that are throwing a hissy because their precious deck got the long overdue nerf that it needed. Not to mention pissed because they have to re-code their precious bots so that they can farm their way to Legend.
Pardon me while I play a sad song on the world's smallest violin.
I dont like priest because they dont have a true identity, priest is just the annoying class, they just steal your minions, copy your cards and sometimes play dragons. And about the Raza DK is just dumb, they dont have to worry for fight for the board, all the deck is removal and the only thing they have to worry is to play Raza, then Anduin DK and finally start using the hero power as a machine gun, is equal of stupid just like Jade Druid, you cant survive so much damage.
If you have priest avatars and you are evangelizing the virtues of the class, that says a lot.
Enjoy your day in the sun. You would think people would demand counterplay in the game, the feeling of earned wins and deserved losses.
Instead it's "our divine turn to tea bag."
If you have a priest avatar pic and no velen in your collection you are a joke.
I can't stand the class and I have Velen, just saying. If you played control and combo in other games than hs you would realize how poor a job blizzard has done with it. It's why they know it's awful to play against, because the game is literally two player solitaire and this class highlights the design flaw in the worst way.
It's fun to bm and it's fun to high roll and snowball for 20mins if you are winning, but don't you want to feel like you earned your wins and deserved your losses with room to develop and improve as a strategy player?
Nah, just barnes into LK and Raza on 5, ME SKILL! All the classes have decks and problems in the same vein, however priest seems to attract an ironic amount of scum bags. Top line players in conquest play the strongest decks, fair enough. I am talking about the ladder pretenders.

I understand the reason why many don't think it's fun to play vs. But then again like I said in my previous post. Most of the arguments comes down to 1) It takes long time 2) Most priest decks cost at least 8-10k dust to make due to running several legendaries and/or epics 3) Most archetypes are rather complex and requires focus, knowledge/experience and skill to pilot well
Personally I find priest very enjoyable to play and maybe even more so to meet.
You don't have to tell me about how Priest is fun, like I said, it's my 2nd most played class. That still doesn't mean the class should be a Tier 1 deck, which it arguably is right now, and after the nerfs are live. Blizzard thinks about game balance while considering average to low level players as well. They're aware that a large portion of the HS community do not find it fun to play against.

Well then, I always have my Memedictus Thief Deck
I love facing all of these priests with Q'Thun Druid :)

Because Aggro scrubs always get salty when the Premier Control class becomes viable.
Aggro wrecks Priest, though
Time to bust out my Archbishop Benedictus

My dream of an elemental deck, has come true.

Dude, why are you complaining about Priest having no identity. Why do you think our king Archbishop Benedictus was introduced.
"I like your deck. I think I WILL TAKE IT"
-Priest
It just reallt depends on what we play that our lens also have different perspectives.
I'm not against them at all honestly. I enjoy playing mill rogue and my Coldlights are hungry for a ladder full of priest treats.
Legit I actually have never faced a mill Rogue that has given me PTSD yet
lol just discussing about how Priest can be top tier is unimaginable
I like playing priest. I don't have the cards for Big priest or highlander though. (Lacking Raza and Statues)
Too bad there isn't a good priest deck people won't complain about.
And I do love the deathknights. Ah well. Sad.
