Well, hopefully the day that Blizzard decides to spoil the Priest class with good cards and early game minions is not too far away. Usually Priest gets good cards from Adventure cards set.

Based off Blizzards over buffing patterns to appease for past mistakes, Priests should have some OP cards in the next expansion.
Look, I want to tell you something because you're very dear to me. And I hope you understand that it comes from the bottom of my damaged, damaged heart. You are the finest piece of ass I've ever had and I don't care who knows it. I am so glad that I got to roam those hillsides.
All the classes seem to have a solid deck they can climb with. It's hard to say who's the weakest since the meta is constantly shifting in response to who is doing well. So it's difficult to say really.
After suffering through a druid dominance quest, I change my vote to druid. Druid lacks tools to play aggro consistently, ramp+no reliable draw kills midrange, and the lack of hard removal and aoe mean control isn't at all workable.
Mid-range hunter early game is trash and the crappy draw power hurts it, but it's fine against slower decks.
Mage always has snowball potential with all the spell synergy and top drawer spells, but losing mad scientist really hurts consistency.
Priest is anti-fun to play, but the tools are there to beat other control and aggro.
I'm surprised Priest got voted on so much. I agree having to go back to the inconsistent Auchenai+Circle combo is a pain in the arse and definitely heavily nerfed Priest, but I vote Druid for the worst class in Standard with Priest a close second. C'thun Priest is actually playable compared to C'thun Druid, which is highly inconsistent. Deathrattle Priest is a decent pick on ladder with either Volazj or N'zoth (never do both).
On the other hand Ramp/ Midrange Druid is pretty viable in the current meta. It's the class I'm using to climb right now. It took me an entire week to create a proper deck with a decent winrate for Druid

The Priest class tethers between being completely over-powered or completely inconsistent. I feel the class is like that by design hence Blizzard's hesitance on giving Priest any good early game to just continue winning their way throughout the game. The class is more about prediction and risk after all. Also their stealing mechanic is fun only if you're the person doing the stealing. To everyone else it feels like they lost and game ten times over.
Priest. There's no way Hunter is the weakest, simply because I've consistently beaten Priests with Hunter lol Priests losing Lightbomb, Velen's, Deathlord, and Zombie Chow is huge. My last game against a Priest had Excavated evil, holy nova, 1 entomb, 2 death against my hunter and they still lost
Midrange Hunter right now is very good and is still going through modifications to find its most optimal form. I've mostly climbed ladder this first month with exclusively the deck in my signature. It's beaten every deck out there. C'thun druids, Mages of all kinds, Rogues of all kinds, Paladins of all kinds, Warlocks, Shamans, etc. And I don't think I've lost to a Priest even once.
The deck is just fast enough to beat control, and just enough early game to compete against zoo-y decks.

Regardless so, Blizz needs to give Priest a chance to be over-powered or be at least a Tier-1 class some day. Priest class never got a chance to be on Tier-1.
Why wouldn't they hesitate to do so for other classes? All other 8 classes had their time to be over-powered and Tier-1 classified.
- Paladin: Secret, Aggro, Midrange, and now N'Zoth Control
- Mage: Mech, Freeze, Tempo
- Druid: Combo, Midrange
- Warlock: Zoo, Renolock, Demonlock
- Warrior: Patron, Control, Tempo
- Shaman: Midrange, Aggro
- Hunter: Aggro, Midrange
- Rogue: Miracle, Oil Rogue
- Priest: none (well, Dragon Priest barely had a time to shine on Tier-1)

True. zombie chow, deathlord are so good against aggro in wild.
As much as everyone's saying Priest, I have to go with Hunter. The only deck that's remotely on the map for hunters is midrange. The rest of their decks are far from competitive.
Someone only uses tempostorm... The tiers change weekly and based on people with creativity creating new decks that change the meta. Not saying druid is top 3 and I'd even agree its in the bottom 3 however it is easily better right now than both Priest in ability to climb the ladder and Hunter in terms of having a viable control and aggro deck while hunter has been left with only crappy midrange and aggro tools all of which have been out classed intentionally by Shaman to spice things up.
while mage has old archetypes to fall back on it isn't in the best position since they lost antique healbot and sludge belcher which were key for us and have you seen the legendary we got its horrible, its flame leviathan all over again
Priests. Can't ladder well with it. Don't really agree with Hunter being weakest though. Midrange is pretty strong but it does have a severe card draw problem.

Lightbomb Velen's Chosen <--- these were essential tools for Priest
Dark Cultist Deathlord<--- these doesnt hurts much but still helped against aggros

Priest at least has dragons and N'Zoth.

Druid is the worst with only tier 3 decks. Every other class has higher tier decks.

Wild Malygos Freeze Mage
Either Druid or Hunter. Hunter has no draw power and Druid got nerfed and has holes all over the place.
while mage has old archetypes to fall back on it isn't in the best position since they lost antique healbot and sludge belcher which were key for us and have you seen the legendary we got its horrible, its flame leviathan all over again
the peach bites back
Paladin. They only have one deck which is even remotely playable, and that's a hardcore wallet deck.
If you have every Old Gods card, they're not the weakest, sure. But for average players, you can win with every other class easier than Paladin.
Priests. Can't ladder well with it. Don't really agree with Hunter being weakest though. Midrange is pretty strong but it does have a severe card draw problem.
