It is too slow, or it is just my opinion?

It's not Battlecry: Solves all your problems and thinks for you, so this card is bad.  

Just tell me how to think and what decklist to play guys, I can't be bothered by thinking outside of this goddamned box. 

Now priest have a good reason to run 2 copies of Stonehill Defender. This gives control priest a solid boost. Also its insanely good w quest/n'zoth priest.

Its like all the cool legenday minions, looks powerfull and op, but too slow to actualy work...

I dunno if this is as good as everyone is making it out to be. It's a good card to get from free from amber and improves that card, sure, but a lot of the time I'd rather have a 12/12 minion or Ysera. It won't save you against aggro or help you complete the quest, because against aggro, if you haven't completed the quest by turn 9, you're dead. It's a good target to get from barnes, especially with eternal servitude, but that's unreliable. It won't give the needed oomph to push past control paladin in control matchups. It could be decent against mage, but I feel like priest needs more cards on turns 4-7, and by turn 9 you've either stabilized or you're dead. The deathrattle is also a random effect, which means it can easily kill a 1/1 minion if your opponent is playing around it.

My experience is with quest priest though, not control priest, so it could be what more viable decks need. This does sound like a very good N'zoth target, but even that's not guaranteed in quest priest, because you're running so many deathrattles already it may not show up at all.

Slow, but playable. If you can build a priest that consistently get to this then it will be very good.

Quest priest struggles against fast and furious agro decks especially against token druid and token shaman beside them midrange Hunter is also a problem they beat quest priest on curve but if you manage to complete quest in time that becames insta win

Such an insane anti aggro card. Great turn 9 to stabilize. The only question is can a control priest survive against aggro/midrange to turn 9?

 Anti-aggro? When was the last time that an aggro deck as arrived to turn 9? Considering its deathrattle effect is more something against Control's late game threats (consider that it also counter Brawl, killing the enemy survivor minion if your opponent won it).

 When was the last time you played a control deck ?

Last time I checked, control vs aggro matchups generally get to turn 10 if there isn't a rage concede.

Quote from Gamefighter3000 >>

Great card against midrange and control decks, reminds me of a shadowverse card which name i forgot (but it had pretty much the same effect iirc even with taunt)

Also incredibly strong with nzoth.

Pretty strong for a frog/sheep

Undoubtedly a disgusting card.  The question is this; can priest survive against aggro long enough to play this card and stabilize while still playing the value cards that make this thing busted (i.e the 4 mana revive and nzoth).  The answer to this question remains to be seen with Shaman getting another busted evolve and pirate warrior and token druid not going away either.  Plus, no matter how much value you get from these I think you still lose to Jade druid in the long run unless they get off to a really bad start or foolishly don't go infinite.  

Overall, it's a great card.  I'm just not convinced it helps priest win any matchups that priest doesn't already win.  Massive potential though.

X2 Hex

pooffff

This looks so good. It's OP in Arena, and I can see the potential for constructed as well. 

I think it's not worthy of being included in your deck but it's a very good option from Free from Amber and Stonehill Defender as it's the only 8+cost Priest minion and only the 2nd Priest Taunt minion. But the question is can Priests cut Curious Glimmerrot or Kabal Talonpriest for Stonehill Defender? Only time will tell.

 can u live to turn 10 to play 12-12 ? or ysera can counter aggro ? Ysera is one of the best controlish card in HS history, she dont have anything to do with countering aggro decks.

Only priest minion over 8 mana so far. Will be in almost every free from amber discovery. 

Also will be found in stonehill defender a lot. If not the card itself finds a place in the decks stonehill and free from amber will because of this. And of course the ress spell.

Another card that's not Shadow Priest.

and this is bad. It's not even a Battlecry. So, your opponent can play around it and it will be destroying Totems and Fire Fly. I will rate it playable. Lifesteal on a Priest minion isn't a big deal.

 agree

Seems way too slow and underpowered to me for the mana cost. 4/8 taunt is worth 6 mana. Lifesteal in priest is only useful against aggro pretty much, and if you made it to turn 9 against aggro you pretty much won anyway. The deathrattle can be easily played around, not to mention you can trade all your minions into it, finish it with spell if needed or stick some weaker minions on deathrattle effect. The effect is really similar to Chillmaw, which is pretty much a bad card, but this one is even slower, has the same ammount of stats, only better stat distribution and costs way too much.

Quote from nufan007 >>

Class cards have a higher chance to be discovered, right? So you'll almost always geht this from Free From Ember because there aren't any other 8+ cost priest mininions. 

Quote from SchruteBucks >>

 You'll almost always get this from Stonehill Defender too.
