I was scrolling Reddit yesterday and saw that someone hit Legend with Quest Priest. I tried out the list last night and came out with a positive WR at 8-2. Needless to say I was impressed. Am I the only one that thinks if the meta slows down that Quest Priest could be viable?
I think the deck is pretty solid, it's just too slow to compete with most of the other decks who can find and complete their win condition faster. The amount of burst damage available at the moment is too much for priest to heal through as well, so it will get to a point where the loss is inevitable.
It used Alura to cheat out shard. So as soon as you had it in the deck the next turn you play Alura and pull it out and win. I think that may be the only way it's viable for now without more support.

Definitely agree that it could be viable.

Definitely not impossible, though!

If the past is any indication, if it does become a viable deck, they will nerf it.
Once any Priest decks becomes viable, it will gain haters and Blizz will nerf it to the ground...
Yeah I noticed that ever since Kibler started playing quest priest... the number of non-shadow priests out there on ladder seems to have increased.
Uh oh, better nerf the quest priest, it's no fun! >_>
