I've been a casual player since beta (I have all golden heroes), but I do have some metagame knowledge. Today I reached rank 5 for the first time with this homebrew version of Even Paladin. Since I haven't seen similar decks I'm looking for advice to maybe improve it. Who knows I might even go for Legend this month :)
Basically this is Even Paladin but with the big threats exchanged for an Immortal Prelate package. Problem with this deck is the major weakness to Silence, because then your deck isn't infinite and you have no other additional big threat. I've been playing something similar, but with the Corpsetaker package for that additional threat (both offensive as defensive) as well as Da Undatakah (even if a silenced Prelate dies, Undatakah still gets its effect).
I immediately thought of Da Undatakah as well after seeing your Immortal Prelates. I would cut 1 Ooze, 1 Culstmaster and 1 Plated Beetle and go for
Undatakah, and 2 Mechanical Whelp or other wise add a Lich King and some more tech cards (mossy horror/the card that kills all 1 mana spells ... forgot it's name)

I see. I think the Corpsetakers and the other cards you need for that strategy is too clunky to be combined with the Prelates. I have Plated Beetle for Aggro and some heal. I haven't faced a lot of burn decks, Odd Rogue is the most common and that one gets walled by Defender of Argus and I can snowball from there. I like the suggestion of Da Undatakah though, but isn't that too slow? You can't combine it with Mojomaster Zihi either.

You save Mojomaster Zihi for a situation where it can win you the game, not slam it on turn 6. And yes Da Undatakah is slow, but so is the entire strategy of Immortal Prelate xd if you want something faster play regular Even Paladin.
Today I noticed that Immortal Prelates effect of keeping "enchantments" means that it also keep battlecries. I was playing against a Deathrattle Hunter earlier, and I eventually got 27 armor every time Da Undatakah died so I was able to simply outstall him in fatigue with nothing but a Taunted Undatakah!

cool deck i think you can cut one Ooze and add Lich king for more more late game power .
Run one ooze, add dirty rat and doomsayer, also cut one cult leader
Skidaddle skidoodle your Milhouse manastorm is now a noodle
I'm pretty sure most posts are about standard lol
Priest will steal your Prelates, or OTK you.
I also doubt that you can draw a buffed prelate in time against Hunter for example.
I hope you don’t see much silence.... it’s pretty popular at the moment...

Indeed this is for the standard metagame.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I managed to go 4-0 to reach rank 4, so far so good :)
What adjustments did you end up making?

Take out mojo master and add Silver Vanguard. After undatakah dies, play Vanguard
Similarly to Lynessa, Vanguard is odd-costed.
But I've seen the clips on Trolden, looks fun :)

Oops! I should have payed more attention... I still wonder if the vanguard combo might be worth not being an even deck
I guess this archetype is dead before it even was a thing #equalitynerf

What about Baleful Banker to cycle more Undertaka into the deck?
This deck looks like, even after the nerfs.
