There are so many ways to counter Priest. It's ubeliavable how many whine threats there are around.
To me it just shows the incompetence of that player.

There is a reason Priest is only mid tier for a while now.

 Wall priest is tier 1 right now after the nerfs, priest is the worst matchup, not because of difficulty but because of how long they can drag the game, spending at least 15 minutes on a single match all the time it´s tedious.

 Whenever a deck is tier 1, people will build counter decks.
When that happens, this deck won't be tier 1 anymore.

I currently play control priest with Alex, Anduin and double mind blast and usually win against wall priest.
My main focus is stealing both Mosh'Ogg Enforcer with Cabal Shadow Priest .
If I don't have both Cabal's yet, I try to shuffle them in their deck again with 2 Psychic Scream .
Doing so gives me the time to stretch the game for the combo.

However, other classes can basically do the same with Polymorph , Hex etc.

 Why the hell is that called wall priest? Thats just a scrubass inner fire deck. Wall Priest should be a taunt heavy deck with spirit of the dead totems.

I hate all kinds of priest... :p

 Used to be my favorite class in the whispers day, but now I occasionally make weird deck for casual only and never ladder as priest. All the common starts are trash: Mind Blast and Inner Fire are both super lame ways to get a easy win.

Gallery priest is a beautiful summury of HS. The deck is 99% RNG

 Needs Yogg. If only Yogg didnt kill himself so often.

I've been playing odd warrior a lot recently and after teching my deck a little with Everspark, Marsh Drake (which has nice synergy with Supercollider btw) and a Gravelsnout Knight (synergy with Brawl), I haven't lost a single game against Gallery Priest. (Plus you can get a Cornered Sentry from Stonehill which is a dream).  That decks weakness is that it's a highroll nonsense. Dilute their rez pool with shitty minions and you win, don't even need to do anything, just wait for their hope to crumble. If you run Zola, use it either on Everspark or the Gravelsnout Knight. Nothing better than seeing a gallery priest play spellstone and then hover the mouse over their pathetic cards with a board of 1/1s or 1/2s ^_^

 Supercollider is another example of an extremely stupid card that should have never been printed. Kill 2 minions per swing....6 minions a game....ooooo balanced.

 How to play around supercollider: 1) play weapon removal 2) place a low statted minion between two big ones 3) freeze the face.

How to play around turn 8 120 damage: ...

Surely, odd warrior is far less interactive

 1)accurate but not necessarily always in hand

2)No. It's correct that supercoliider is less effective against spam decks, but if your deck is mostly medium sized minions it is truly obnoxious. Getting rid of two minions with one weapon swing is nonsense.

3)Limited cards do so and that is only a stall

If you're referring to mind blast or ANY malygos deck, I'm not a fan but that has nothing to do with the ridiculous of this weapon. Just the idea of a weapon as strictly a control tool rather than reach is weird to me. There was foolsbane and now a new overkill weapon but you actually have to strike every minion.

Brawl/reckless flurry/supercollider/dragon package = BORING

But I must not play the kind of decks that's a really bad matchup because the tools seem unfairly annoying, not impossible to win. Polarizing seems like a weird term to think of. Thinking of this game and other card games I played, a lot people just don't like "Fun Police" control decks that just remove everything. That Druid and Warrior have ways to get so much armor just makes it more obnoxious.

I have just one question: who comes up with these stupid names like "gallery priest"? It's like a priest is sitting in a gallery trying to sell you religious stuff. Lonely, forgotten, having a deep sadness in his heart, yet filthy rich.

.

 Read the names of priest cards. You'll find your way. I believe in you! (hint:start with the higher mana ones first)

Unrelated to main topic but I just want to express how annoying it is to read negative comments from someone with a very low post number.

Hast thou cometh simply to talk shit?!

Priests can kill you in all sorts of ways dragons, combo, fatigue..

I think the big issue is Mass Hysteria, Shadow Visions and Psychic Scream all existing in the same format.

 

 Shadow Visions is stupid. Ways to cheat max limit of cards within a deck are bad.

I made a gallery deck some time ago which is probably different from what you played since i dont netdeck but somehow i always win without trying. I typically just end up killing most of the enemies and they just concede after a while.

If you mean some version of mindblast priest...that will always be stupid, No point in complaining about it and gallery is not the issue. Malygos should have never been printed.
