Playing aggro deck for 3 seasons make me start feel boring, this season I want to challenge with a control deck, but I dont have many cards for top control deck. I think about control Priest but I dont have any crafted legends (Justicar, Dr Boom, Vol'jin). I have 1 Cabal Shadow Priest, and I will have 2 soon.
That's my problem. Anyone have a budget control Priest please help me with deck list and some basic guide. Thanks!
You can just take any priest deck and replace what you don't have. Take some other control-ish legendaries you have and play those instead, stuff like Ysera, Nefarian, Ragnaros, Sylvanas, ...
Even Mind Control is fine as a budget replacement for a fatty.
Do you have LOE? Elise priest is pretty cheap since you cut all the top end minions. You can run it without justicar, although she's extremely good and I would recommend getting her asap.
Yes I have all adventures
Cp in Budget doesn't work. To many expensive core cards. Lightbomb, sylvanas, cabal...btw Nobody plays voljin atm.
before you craft another Cabal wail for the next expansion.
I have 1 Lightbomb, but no useful Legend, I will keep Cabal for next expansion, thank you

I tried some control deck and replace cards with my collection but I never reach rank 10 with those decks, I remember that I saw in youtube a player played Priest to rank 5 with only Loatheb as a legend, but it's too long, so I can't find that deck and I don't know does it still works on meta.
Oh. And the loatheb you mentioned earlier would be a replacement 4 swd aswell. Works nice vs combodecks. But don't Expect to win vs anythinpala or freezemage. They ll win against you with or without loatheb. But vs a Patron or combodruid it Works wonders (would recommend eviscerated evil if you re struggling with Patron though)
None of this requires any specific legendaries. Of course, there are a few that work very well in the deck, Justicar Trueheart, Ysera, Sylvanas Windrunner, Vol'jin, but they are not the core of your strategy, they just support (1) or (2). Elise Starseeker should give you all the legendaries you'd ever need to win control matchups.
This is very different from Control Warrior, who just stalls and draws cards to play lots of fat legendaries.

Well, with all adventures you could test it
You can cut a SW:D to put a Sludge Belcher. If you are seeing a lot of Shaman, Acidic Swamp Ooze..
Ok. If you habe the adventures it s something totally different.
ulgioths decklist Seems Fine. If you can get that together it would be totally viable.
would cut the 2nd sw death though. cheap replacementideas:
-shrinkmaster (Even though Not that Strong with only 1 cabal)
- thoughtsteal (cardadvantage, thanks to elise you can Even use cards like shieldslam)
- shadowmadness nice removal. Vs zoodecks/deathrattle minions very nice, not so good vs combodruid without shrinkmeister
- 2nd nova godlike vs zoo/ aggro
-eviscerated evil Kind of like Nova, Situationally better/worse
Many thanks to all guys, I will try it with all your advice.

Control Priest has two core elements:
(1) Comboing cards like Wild Pyromancer, Northshire Cleric, Circle of Healing, Auchenai Soulpriest, Light of the Naaru, Shrinkmeister, Cabal Shadow Priest ...
(2) Single target removal and board clears. SW:Pain, SW:Death, Entomb, Holy Nova, Excavated Evil, Lightbomb ...
