We're supposed to get excited about a mech-themed expansion, and yet it feels like Priest got completely left off the bus.
Our only Mech is a 2/1 Deathrattle that is only situationally better than Loot Hoarder.
Every class got a "Project" card, Priest got none.
Cloning Device, Topsy Turvy, Test Subject, Extra Arms, Power Word: Duplicate, Zerek's Cloning Gallery, and Zerek, Master Cloner are all garbage-tier cards that will be forgotten in a week.
Reckless Experimenter is the only cool card we received...and yet there is no card in the entire set that synergizes with it.
Why are Priests never allowed to have draw? We are STILL reliant on cards like Northshire Cleric.
Why are Priests never allowed to have a solid win condition? The last time we did was Raza, and that got rightfully nerfed, but it would be nice to have a wincon that wasn't Divine Spirit+Inner Fire.
All the while, Druid's "worst" card is a 6-mana Cenarius you can run two copies of.
Hunter, Paladin, Rogue, and Shaman didn't get project cards, that's over half of the other classes, so singling Priest out is pretty stupid. They specifically said that Hunter, Paladin, and Warrior will focus on mech-synergy, so it's no surprise Priest didn't get any, because none of the other classes did either. Priest does have a solid win condition, a couple actually. You literally mentioned Inner Fire, you just don't like it. There's also Anduin and Mind Blasts. Or that combo deck with Vivid Nightmare and Velen.
I don't disagree that Priest got bad cards, but you just threw around a bunch of random incorrect statements that have nothing to do with the truth.
After the insufferable annoying shit that was Raza Priest they very well damn deserve to be in shit for a few expansions at least.
Priest was Tier 1 for an expansion and a half and has been garbage for the rest of the game's history. If you're going to complain about that one period, be objective with other classes as well.
Priest actually did get card draw this expansion. Priest as a class doesn't have a lot of card draw because most of their cards are high value and don't require much draw. Quest priest got some good cards and that legendary spell is kind of like a smaller n'zoth. I've been a priest main since gadgetzan and I'm very excited for this expansion.
I think I heard the dev say something like sit on their hands. In all seriousness though probably egg priest. It was already okay and extra arms makes it better... Not to mention test subject.
Also, Shadowreaper Anduin, Duskbreaker, and most of the good Priest Cards rotates next year, so unless they get some crazy stuff next expansion after boomsday, the class will have only tier 3-4 decks for a long time.
priest main here and im very dissapointed. priest just need a very good board clear like dragonfire potion and everything would haave been perfect but NO. they get only more greedy shit cards... you cant even play odd priest becouse there is only psyich scream, you cant even play control priest without dragons becouse duskbreaker is the only good one who can clear the board and in order to activate you have to play some shity dragons(primodal drake is way to late to be good) the other dragons suck IMO.
Same question asked Paladin players last expansion... everything was in another direction , and actually no card really saw competitive play. (Baku was maybe too much, while class card were meh)

Not to mention the theme given to Priest doesn't feel like Priest at all.
I mean, cloning? Priest? Are we even serious?
Maybe Neutral cards are the answer, but so far i can't see any new decent archetype for Priest.
Priest is supposed to play the same Mind Blast combo deck.
Do the same thing as always. Be annoying as fuck to your opponents.
I would give blizzard my house and all my money if they removed priest from the game.

As a Priest lover... im really sad about this expansion.. still going to craft the legendaries and try until something comes up
Divine Spirit, Inner Fire seem to be what they are going for with the new priest cards
Priests will be hanging around in Wild, with their f... big deck :)
ps I play wild more than standard
I think I heard the dev say something like sit on their hands. In all seriousness though probably egg priest. It was already okay and extra arms makes it better... Not to mention test subject.
Yeah Priest will probably suck this expansion too :(
The cards are borderline interesting while all other classes got a lot of new interesting things to try out.
Another 4 months of Divine spirit/Inner fire :(
Top deck is cheat
Also, Shadowreaper Anduin, Duskbreaker, and most of the good Priest Cards rotates next year, so unless they get some crazy stuff next expansion after boomsday, the class will have only tier 3-4 decks for a long time.
Also the new 4/6 is also pretty sick with egg priest.
Priest got one of the best cards in the expansion in Reckless Experimenter. Death-rattle priest may well be a tier two deck.
