poor interaction with Potion of Madness, poor interaction with Battlecry... i'm not sold. If we can get some early game spells to control the board, then maybe this could be a thing, but i think we are still going to have to run too many 1-2-3 cost minions that will pollute this down the drain. =(
I like the versatility of this card, it's one of the rare priest tools that can be both greedy and functional in faster matchups.
Against aggro at it's worst it will probably be 4 mana resummon a priest of the feast, which is already pretty good against aggro. You can also combo it turn 5 with radiant elemental to resummon it for 3 mana and maybe even pws one of your minions if you're lucky to have that as well. If you didn't draw priest of the feast, even summoning drakonid operative for 1 mana less is not bad in a pinch. In an aggro meta you could also just run one eternal servitude to prevent drawing both of them and no good minions.
Against midrange/control it can give you that tempo boost that priest is kinda lacking, other than medivh + free from amber. Against something like midrange paladin you can wait until later to hopefully summon 4 mana ysera or some other big dragon or cairne if you're a n'zoth deck, which is not too far fetched in a slower matchup.

That doesn't kill anything though. you are still going to have to run something to help it kill stuff. If we got Defile and locks got Spirit Lash, I would DEFINITELY agree with you though.
pretty good. Maybe a little expensive but in a priest it is possible to get this to be lyra pretty consistently, and that is kind of insane, because then you get a second lyra for cheaper. I have genuinely played decks with so few minions that by the time my lyra dies I have only played 3, so this is definitely decent, and maybe you get it off of lyra if you don't want to bother to play it.

Just fill your deck with one drops, that is creative deck design, right?
The card is very slow. You need to play it past turn 7 to get value. Jade druid is still a thing, taunt warrior with the dead man hand, hunter go face, rogue miracle better than priest, palladin that doesnt care about your board.
I think the card is good. A Resurrect that can choose from is very useful in my opinion. The +2 Mana so that you can be able to choose the minion you play is worth it.
In slower Priest control decks by turn 8-9 you probably have only had 3-4 minions die, so you will be able to summon the one you want 90% of the time. And after you start your resurrect train, the odds of pulling better minions from Bishop and Resurrect go up. turn 3 Injured Blade master, turn 4 resurrect + heal, turn 5 bishop, turn 6 this and resurrect ect ect
Insane card, but may not have a good deck to go into. It's playable on turn 4 with Injured Blademaster, but I don't think that is powerful enough nowadays, so it's probably a card you use much later on to bring back some really big minions. It doesn't work well in a deck with a bunch of low-cost cards like Radiant Elemental, etc.
Malygos Priest is absolutely gonna be a thing again.
Anyone sure how this interacts with Barnes summoned minions? A killed 1/1 copy minion will surely resurrect with full stats (my guess)
also:
will a ressed Lyra also directly give out a random spell?
even if both theories are wrong it's still a potential card.

Ok, OP. I don't what to say about this card, I don't think priest need more of this. It already has values enough.
My magic will tear you apart!

I want a golden copy, and use it to increase the odds later to revive the right one ..!
Seems very promising

As a Priest main i approve. Time to find some space in my Nzoth Reno Quest Priest for Wild.

The 4 mana slot is so crowded. They did it again.
/thinking what card to replace in my wild priest

More situational spells thats what priest needed badly kappa.
Would resurrecting Lyra trigger her text?
@Tekdrake I don't think so - Lyra doesn't trigger when she is summoned from Firelands Portal, so she shouldn't here either.

Blood of the ancient one might work now.
I exist, I think.
