Every Priest deck I've faced recently in Arena either has multiple dragon activations or Kazakus. I can't remember the last time that I encountered a Priest who played a Drakonid whose battlecry didn't activate. It seems well over half of them will play Drakonid Operative and double Drakonids are showing up frequently, too.
What's your impression? Have you been facing Priests with crazy decks and inevitable dragon synergy?
If their Drakonid triggers, most likely it's another Drakonid in their hand... damn thing is a pit fighter without any synergy, so it's rare you would pass it up.
Individual rares are just as "common" as common cards now, so running into so many isn't unusual.
Are they all OP? No, but at higher wins you have to expect all of the broken cards including Talonpriest and Drakonid OP. Priest is, maybe more than any other class, dependent on the card quality it drafts and the synergies. Most of the time you face one at 4 or more wins you'll be facing the usual broken cards.
The way to counter these decks is to stuff your deck full of so many bad cards that when they discover something out of your deck it's completely useless turned back against you. /sw
In my experience, yes. Got absolutely wrecked yesterday by just a simple potion of madness taking my poisonous snake which killed my 8 drop. They can play more of a control game because of dragonfire potion.
Each Priest has Dragonfire Potion I guess.. Sometimes more that 1. Today I played with Priest where I was Priest also.. He had the 2 operative and casted 4 Dragonfire Potion.. I did 2.. 6 potion in arena..
Priest is 1 of the currently most stupid arena classes. You generally will only see the crazy Priest decks because after a few wins the rest of the Priests who were not skillful enough to high roll the draft have already been slaughtered, leaving only the crazy ones.
Yeah Priest is Super good or Super bad. My last two priest drafts I was not offered a single operative, potion of madness, talon priest (or Death or Pain), which resulted in a 4-3 run. I had a single Dragonfire potion, but that alone is not enough to carry priest out of the dumpster.
If you get a good deck expect to win more, if you get a mediocre or a bad deck expect to lose. Priest is too reliant on value cards and if you dont get them you're shit out of luck.

Well, the rotation is coming in less than 48 hours, and the Standard Arena will change once again. Priest won't have that much Dragon support anymore.

Ended with fatigue...
Every Game for Fun...
I know for one I will be glad when Entomb rotates out in a coupe of days. My last game against priest he had 4 Entombs to just rob the late game.

Priest is a diceroll for arena.

Good thing they're gone in a day or so. You'll barely see any dragons and a lot less win at turn 3/board clears with this new expansion.

Yes! Whenever I see Anduin's face, I want to concede right away, because it's not just an OP deck, it's a deck that makes you angry to play against
