I feel like im killed by Cloning gallery priest A lot, but it's always by the gallary. How does this deck work if you draw any combo pieces? Do they ress stuff? Is it all rng?
Is there a good deck I could look at to better understand? Or a video
Use Gallery or Shadow Essence to get out Maly and/or Velen (or multiple copies) for cheap, then hit 'em with double Mind Blast or Holy Smite. It's good in an Aggro/Control heavy meta, not so good in a Combo/Midrange heavy meta. You simply survive against aggro, outvalue and eventually kill Control, but have to race the clock against Combo, and usually lack the resources to deal with ongoing single big threats in Midrange.
Don't let anyone tell you it's a "hard to pilot" deck. It's just not the best deck to play in certain metas.

Thank you for your constructive and well thought out critique.

I'd watch anytime you see Zalae play it. He's pretty good with the deck, plays it often, and he usually explains why he's making the plays that he does.

If you have a deck idea might as well go full ham on it.
Control priest is much better choice in current meta in my opinion. I had a lot of success with it this season so far (got me from rank 15 to 4 in one big win streak). Biggest advantage is that it is not a pure control but something between control/combo since Alexstraza followed by three mindblasts or 2 mindblasts and one holy fire is a win against almost any deck excluding odd warrior. This combo is also very consistent thanks to shadow visions (when lucky I was able to do 25 dmg in one turn). It can beat midrange hunter quite regularly if the rng is not against you (duskbreaker and cabal shadow priest stealing thundra rhino are your power moves). Odd paladin is also not a problem if you play smart. Any slower deck is typically almost sure win. Hard matchups are odd warior and combo druid since they have a lot of armor gain but it is beatable if you pressure a lot with your dragons and stall with psychic screams as much as possible in case of mecha-c'thun.

This "meme" deck won HCT winter. But if you want to let other people convince you it's bad go for it.

He was talking about his own deck, not gallery priest. He doesn't play it himself
As he said i dont play gallery priest. Im currently playing quest rakkar priest or buff infinite minion paly. Look at my decks ive posted here you will see the terrible quality i play XD.
Tempted to try this deck. But im happy with silly decks. I much prefer gimicky decks
Some weeks (or months) ago I was playing standard Gallery Priest with average results. Most of the time I was replacing some tech cards, constantly picking a wrong one and missing a useful one. Still, lectures from Zalae's, Asmodai's and Theo's streams helped me a lot to achieve solid results with the deck. But, at some point, I put it away...
Lately I started playing various decks again to fully experience them once more before the rotation. Instead of the standard version, this time I picked "4-minions" version of Gallery Priest, which I dismissed previously (no extra coins, no grizzly, pw: shields... these somehow annoyed me in theory).
Cannot admit enough how wrong I was. Four minions version works just fine and with having already some experience I piloted the deck to 16-6 score (73%) during the last 2-3 days. Without fake modesty I played really well that I'm proud of myself :P, especially after winning some rough games with 1HP left, stolen Velen, skipped turn due to the disconnection and such... 80% of games are dramatic, but that makes the deck enjoyable to play; decisions are also fun - when to AoE, when to wait, etc... The deck really has multiple aspects.
Differences between 2 versions: Grizzly is always missed, but surprisingly, I destroyed a lot of aggro even without it. There are no Lyra nor coins, so no extra value and enough spells to easily upgrade spellstones on time.
And the most important info: of 22 matches, in only 2 or 3 I won after playing gallery and smorc. Other couple of times I played that card was only to get minions for the resurrect pool; or for healing with lash. Therefore, that card is somewhat less important, less in the focus, although still a good addition.
All this is the reason why spellstones are important. I learned to mulligan for them almost always, because to upgrade them is much harder and now they are very important for your ability to win. Of course, Vivid Nightmare and DK shooting are nice additions as well.
Tl, dr; 4-minion version is more consistent; now you can better predict what you can summon and resurrect. Plus, in most games Velen and Malygos are in your hand, and it's not a problem.
Power Word: Shield isn't bad as I thought before. And very important turn is 6 when you Shadow Essence. Everything is good to get, but 5-5 Zilliax is usually a total turnover.
Here I posted some tips if they can help anyone. I can post some replays if someone is interested.

A strong deck with a solid RNGesus factor.
