Hi everyone, I'm currently going back and forth between ranks 9-7. When I face anything else then handlock or ramp druid, I win. If it's one or them, It's a coin toss depending on my hand but mostly 35-40% win rate which is horrible considering I face them about 2/3 of the time. Druid is kinda ok, hard but I can win. But handlock just wrecks my balls.
I'm playing the mindblast/velen priest deck, I'm (I think) really good at it and can win against everything but handlock is just a mess... One giant turn 3, ok SWD and done, second giant turn 4 is kind of annoying... if I happen to draw the second one, then fine! Problem is, I still have no board presence and lost my 2 SWD which means if he gets his molten/alex/rag out, I'm in big trouble! Which, of course, happens a little later in the game.
I know what everyone one of you is gonna say : just don't put him under 15 health. REALLY? NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT! Problem is, I need to get him at least at 14 for the velen mind blast smite combo (That, of course, I need to get before dropping him that low). Also, because priest are slow, he can play the rest of his big minions later without him being under 15! Finally, drakes are just painful as a priest... Just painful... I don't see what I'm doing wrong, I just pray the RNG lord he doesn't draw his giants too soon or I'm dead.
