it's viable, Lightbomb is an amazing card, it doens't clea rin wild because of all the deathrattle going around but it redouces massive amounts of damage from the board.
It's pretty good vs. Secret Paladin and Zoo. Priest has powerful AoE spells. You get stomped by Shaman and Tempo Mage though. By the time you blow up their board you get finished off with burst damage.
The great thing about Wild is that every class is good since there are so many broken Neutral cards.
Yes, want to play control rogue? Put 2 healbot and go, want to play midrange with any class? Put Dr.7 and Shreeder and be happy, want a late game treat? Put some awesome deathrattle minion and N'Zoth and the list don't end...
Basically.. With the aggro cards nerfed aggro isn't as bad as it used to be. Lightbomb, sludgebelcher, excavated evil, auchenai + circle, pain, doomsayer are all fantastic vs aggro. As it stands I don't like his deck but I understand how it can handle aggro. My deck is much better imo though.
What's the status of priest in wild format?
I am currently playing wild priest, it's pretty good but you get destroyed by aggro as always...
Main priest and hate aggro
Priest is maybe Tier 2, maybe low Tier 1. It is really doing well if you draw enough and good to withstand Aggro or Midrange Hunter.

Yes, it is very strong. Not to good versus shaman, but shaman is not too strong in wild overall - so there aren't that many of them.
Having fun and doing well with this ~60+ win rate.
Little Heavy on the RNG with Prince Malchezaar but adds cards needed to outlast in fatigue.
Deathlord, Sludge Belcher, and Lightbomb make it a tier 1 deck
The great thing about Wild is that every class is good since there are so many broken Neutral cards.
When i played wild ladder last month i saw secret pally and freeze mage more than anything, but priest is better.
Yep, priest is strong in wild.
Where shall I start...
Priest is amazing in wild!

In Wild, Priest is amazing and N'zoth Priest destroys Midrange-Shamans, thinking they can spread their cancer in the wild meta too.
N'Priest is tier 1 in wild
You beat other N'decks because you can get their big cards.
You beat aggro cause you play 2 zombi cho, dethlord, doomsayer, lightbomb, excavate evil...
Its even against reno/handock.
Its harder against things that can oneshoot you like freez mage or rogue.
Dragon priest isnt that good now in wild, it does the same things but a little less effectivly...
There is no cancer deck in hearthstone ! You are the Cancer !
Don't forget aggro Priest is also but surprisingly viable in Wild. See my signature :)
