However, I do think there's ONE change that would make this card incredible: silencing at the start of your next turn.
This one change would make it possible to design a deck around Doomsayer. Of course, if Purify's effect occurs before Doomsayer's. Imagine this, on the first turns, your only move is to play Doomsayer, followed by Resurrect. On the fourth turn, however, you also play (this version of) Purify. It allows Doomsayer to remain a menace to your enemy and also a valuable minion for your spells (mainly Divine Spirit + Inner Fire). Onyx Bishop remains an important addition as it is, because, as long as you don't let another minion die, Doomsayer will always be an available target for your combo pieces.
You can see a deck I created based on this theory below and I welcome any inputs you have in your mind. Just this one change would make up for a much stronger Priest theme and maybe spawn a few more of these deck types.
And I hope another Purify thread won't annoy you.

There are really too many threads on this card right now. Please take this post to the following thread about improved versions of purify.
